Introduction Post... Sorta

Furry Reddit - Tue 27 Oct 2015 - 13:57

Hi everyone, like the title suggests this is sort of an introductory post, but really i just want to kind of say how i got involved in the community and my opinions on it.

A little about myself to give you insight into me sort of speak: im a 17 year old dude from Alberta * some consider it the Texas of Canada * My favorite things to do are play video games, drive, play hockey, and read. My favorite video games right now are definatly League of Legends, Startcraft II, and of course Halo 5(HYPE)! I love driving, working on and reading about cars (not trucks, ew :P). I play as a goaltender in hockey and attend a hockey school (why not play hockey than do schoolwork!) My favorite genre of books are science fiction and sometimes fantasy, favorite series is definitely The Expanse Series By: James S.A. Corey (worth a read if your looking for something) Oh! Almost forgot! My favorite animal among furries ( if that makes sense D:) is either fox i know sooo original or a bunny

That's all for my boring introduction, now its time for what i really want to say!

So, to start off id like to think of myself as only a furry sometimes, the reason I think this way is because I don't normally find myself thinking about the fandom or drawing about it much in my spare time. I do still browse this Reddit fairly frequently and read the comics and such, but it just revolves around my mood 90% of the time. Now I got involved in the community by a friend of mine who was in my old raiding guild in WoW, she was a furry and kind of gave me perspective on the whole thing and the big ol' misconception about us. Not to long after that depression really hit me I started to get into the fandom, just lurking and talking to people within it usually on omegle, I never ventured into yiffing or role-playing but just forged friendships with the people that I found within the community. I met some very extraordinary people of all ages genders and sexuality's and i fell in love more with that than the actual fandom itself. I just thought it was amazing that it didn't matter who you were or who you liked, everyone just shared the same common interest and didn't judge! So then whenever I found myself going into the dumps I'd go and talk to some of my friends inside the fandom and it always seemed to help since I can't really talk to all to many people irl about my depression because where i come from that kind of stuff is frowned upon, so again I resorted to retreating into the furry community. Rolling back on the partial furry part mentioned at the beginning, i like the idea of anthropomorphic animals and being able to give them my own personality i still find it kind off odd or funny that people dress up in fursuits and yiff, never could wrap my head around that. But, just because i say that does not mean in any way that i have something against them or look down upon them, simply saying I could never get into it is all! Thats just the main reason i consider myself a "Half Furry" :)

And thats pretty much it for a casual introduction of myself :) just wanted to let all of you guys know that even if you don't realize it this community is helping me, and most likely other people just the same, just by, well being you! :D

Do you guys ever think about what your non-furry friends species' would be?

Furry Reddit - Tue 27 Oct 2015 - 12:31

I was talking to one of my friends (who is also a fur) about what he sees our other friends as, and I thought this would be an interesting question for you guys.

Alternatively, what celebrities do you see as different species?

Any. its your call!

Safe for Work only.

Unfortunately no. But if you don't have a ref you can always use other pictures.

For the base resolution (before any wanted scaling) I will do up to 128x128, but higher res icons can be negotiated.

A chat with Anthrocon CEO Uncle Kage about con cancellations and security.

Dogpatch Press - Tue 27 Oct 2015 - 10:35
In the past month, Oklacon and Rainfurrest both announced dramatic cancelations involving misbehavior.  (Oklacon was written up here on 9/28/15.) Mainstream news didn’t notice, as far as I know.  The only press I saw was a super positive Rainfurrest article: “Being a Furry Can Change Your Life.” Public image is a big deal to furries.  They seem even more sensitive about it […]

Hallo everyfur! Rummy 'Yena here, and with coffee mug in hand I'm ready to start my day! Luckily this particular Tuesday only involves playing video games, reddit, and chatting with my fellow fuzzies. No work to be had today!

I just need someone to talk to. I hurt someone in my life and I just need help.

Furry Reddit - Mon 26 Oct 2015 - 23:25

I figured you guys would be a good place to talk to. You guys have saved me in the past and I just need more help tonight. I'm not suicidal or anything just deep in guilt.

Without revealing absolutely anything, I hurt someone. I talked about something I shouldn't have and they felt hurt by it. I'm scared talking about it in this post will somehow hurt them more but I'm not sure.

I was supposed to be the happy part of their life, the part that helped them. Now I feel like I destroyed that relationship.

Just, I don't know just I want to talk to someone if that's ok...

I just need advice on how to make them happy again
