Furry Convention Drama - Because you can't have a couple thousand dog fucking enthusiasts under the same roof without shit hitting the fan

[retardmode99]

Looks like Old Man Conway picked up the Shanghai Shivers at the bar the very moment he lifted his mask to drink. Back in the olden days, we used to call this "con crud".

The phrase 'masked' gives me creeps; I don't know why. Who willingly refers to themselves as 'masked'...? I see it with the coof crowd a lot. Just say 'wearing a mask'. Strange.

You don't see 'normal' gays or furries *because* they're normal. There are lots of gays and furries and trans people out there who don't care about being known; they just stick to themselves and don't sperg out and ladderclimb on Twitter. You only see the loud and annoying ones - the vocal minority. The loud and annoying types are also more likely to be interested in seeking validation from other e-losers by being shocking and trooning out, etc.
Sure, the uber far-left retards get more and more degenerate (and their identities get more detached from reality) every year, but the normal ones stay normal;- because at the end of the day, they don't really care about "the community".

A lot of furries seem like total coomers and degenerates until you realise that their online existence is just a hobby, not an extension of their identity, like these lolcow types who live through the internet. There are a lot of gays and furries out there who log in to their account to interact with & post the art/porn they like, maybe make a couple friends, bust a nut, and then log out and get back to being normal in reality. This is probably true for most big artists, and honestly, a large amount of the community. It's just like playing WoW and having a character. It means nothing more.

Isn’t this true of literally every group? The truly exceptional ones are terminally online resulting in you seeing more of them than the “normies”.

I know. I said as much before.

A fandom is defined by its loudest and most visible elements, though. So while there is a sizable silent majority that's just happy to enjoy the colorful tits, they're not the ones everybody sees when they look at the fandom. They're also not doing anything to keep the degenerates at bay. So the "normies" are either complacent members of the fandom who don't really care about anything besides getting their cheap Judy Hopps porn, or not members at all and just orbiting the fandom for said Judy Hopps porn. Either way they're irrelevant to what I was talking about.

I recently got ill with cold symptoms after seeing relatives, the first time in a long time. I feel a bit lethargic but it doesn't stop me from living or working. People have all but forgotten this is normal.

Kage you retard. If the wuflu could be stopped by a bit of cloth and filter paper it wouldn't be worldwide.

Speaking of Babyfurs and ABDLs...they are trying to cancel Furnal Equniox's 2023 Guest of Honour because he doesn't like them.

Meet Wolfbird, a fursuit maker from Quebec. He does not want to deal with paedophiles, which includes babyfurs.

A search for "Furnal Equinox GOH" shows a bunch of babyfur tard rage.

Anyone have some screenshots of babyfur rage. I dont know why but i feel like tourturing myself by seeing babyfurs go uwu i am a communist and a resistance member.

Yeah and con crud could be solved with orange juice, a healthy diet, and drinking plenty of fluids. Instead weed, booze, and not eating proper meals are why con attendees get sick. It doesnt matter weather its an anime con or furry con people will complain about getting sick.

To be fair, Kage has been trying to defend the fandoms public image for years now. I feel like he deserves a drink knowing the kids these days don't know well enough to keep the degeneracy behind closed doors. As far as furries go, he's the closest to having decency, and that just means he's in the same solar system as decency. Dude deserves to pickle himself.

Kage is as close to decency as the Oort Cloud is to the Sun. But you’re right; still in the solar system. He’s been better about hiding his degeneracy than a LOT of other furries, but it’s still out there to find (Rogue the Wolf comes to mind).

A lot of the younger crowd are frustrated with his stranglehold on image, but at the same time, it’s kind of understandable. There are enough sex pests in the community to cause concern, and to not want that shit glossed over. However, there’s also enough casual fans that just want people to recognize that there can be a casual interest — like enjoying anime without going full-on weeb.

You really get all sorts at the cons, though, including the people who are really just there to hook up and party.

PL I once overheard him talking about his giant wolf self crushing the Estrel and everyone in it while he was in public in the middle of its lobby, and much of his insanity is only hidden due to his irl jannies making sure to hide him when he's drank too much

Off topic but is it Kage pronounced “cage” as in a dog cage or “ka-gay” like something from a beach boys song.

Here's the thing with Kage: he can be lulzy sometimes and he's definitely tilting at windmills trying to protect the furry fandom's image. He's also a hypocrite, like most politically-inclined people. And that's exactly what he is, he's the furry equivalent of a politician. But in a "community" crawling with sociopathic trannies, backstabbing clout-chasers, diaper-wearers, puppy players, overt pedophiles, dogfuckers and dead dogfuckers (including some dead dead dogfuckers)... a functioning alcoholic playing Sisyphus as a relic of bygone fandom culture just isn't interesting enough to do much more than a brief drive-by mocking whenever he's mentioned.

In fairness, with furries the "there just to hook up and party" bit was always the point.

As opposed to professional conventions, in which you're there to learn something or to network (and then get blackout drunk at the bar afterwards); or entertainment conventions, in which you're there to enjoy the scantily-clad cosplayers and buy merch (and then get blackout drunk at the bar afterwards); furry conventions have always been about putting faces to the names they spent the past year talking to. And with furries being hedonistic as they are, the hooking up and partying was a given. The first furcons derived from post-con room parties (many of them explicitly sexual) that got a bit too big for their britches, after all.

That's where the rub is. He is, by all accounts, a successful chemist, yet also is a hardcore alcoholic that for some reason, decided to devote his life hanging around and wrangling these exact people. That's... not normal. Plus, there is a ton of "Kage stories" out there, yet don't get a lot of coverage, because of backlash fear.

You're putting the cart ahead of the horses there. It's not that he's a successful chemist who's for some reason decided to devote his life to tardwrangling furries. He's very old in the fandom. He was something like 24 or 25 when he started getting involved with furries, so he somehow became a successful chemist while being an alcoholic furry tardwrangler.

It's not normal, that's right, because he is a rarity among furries. He's not just old, he's still around as a public figure. Most furries from his generation faded into the background. Some left altogether, but from what I gather the ones that are still alive (substance abuse and mental illness being rife in the fandom as they are) mostly just keep a low profile while still commissioning art and being degenerates within their own circles. That's the big weird thing about Kage.

As for his fuckups... again, the problem is that furries are so fucking extreme right now that simply being into a weird kink or drunkenly hitting on the occasional 17-year-old barely registers. Hell, that last one barely registers among non-furry gays. Thirsting for younger guys is the norm there, not the exception. Meanwhile, "fear of backlash" doesn't really apply in this age of anonymous callout posts. If there was anything even other furries would find serious, it would have come out already. Kage usually stays out of social media slapfights, so despite his (waning) influence he's at most a minor lolcow at the moment.

On the other hand, expect a lot more millennial furries to hang around the public side of the fandom well into their 60s in the future. Conway's generation mostly got jobs, set up families, and settled down. The current crop? Social media is part of them, their entire social lives are structured around being furries. There will be geriatric furry slapfights on the 2040s equivalent of Twitter.

The same principle applies to Islam.

 

[PirateLordRidley]

In response to Twitter demanding cons do something about the presence of sex offenders at cons, Megaplex has implemented a bulletproof, top-of-the-line verification system to prevent these people from appearing at the con.

You ready for this? Here it is.

Spoiler: This is the greatest verification of all time

Nope, that's it. A checkbox. And the community is predictably going wild for it (archive).

While ridiculous and completely ineffective on its face, it is at least enough, legally speaking, to make someone guilty of trespassing if they knowingly lie and attend anyway. A very small, borderline meaningless distinction, but considering a lot of these sorts of people's release is predicated on a requirement to stay out of legal trouble of any sort, it could, very tenuously, lead to a kid-fucker being put back in jail.

Assuming, of course, that the con call the police. If con staff simply escorts/heckles the person out of the premises without any official record, they're still off scot-free.

 

[The_MmmBop_Gang]

Oh yeah, in my years in the community, which honestly is most of my adult life now, fuck I am a degenerate, I have concluded that on average about 3 out of 10 of the people in it are absolute losers and creeps. The number is honestly kept down due to most of them being kicked out. Everyone in it is a bit weird by its nature, but most are functional, and I'd say its pretty 50/50 on if someone actually has issues that they should be coping with in better ways or not. At least around here it makes me kind of happy that if someone is actually fucked up, the local scene will usually tell them to get professional help rather than coping through sex, and that's mostly just because we don't want to deal with the problems that come with those trying to drown their problems through indulgence.

Strict is an understatement. I happen to know someone in my local scene knows I use this site, and I know they are in this thread, and I know they know which account is mine, and I will absolutely get chewed out for discussing this on a public forum. There's a reason the BDSM community doesn't have as strong of a presence on mainstream social media, but instead sticks near entirely to its own sites.

I am too young to have been particularly aware of furries way back then, but it does make me wonder how furry went from "kinda gay" to "puking rainbows". What makes gay people so much more likely to be furfags?

I'm not sure where folks get that the BDSM scene isn't that out there on mainstream/ social media.

You open gay Twitter and it only takes a couple clicks to find guys with all the fixin's and fetishes. Maybe that's just because it isn't the real bdsm community and this is just the state of the gay one? You'll see tons of rubber, leather and pup players moving in tandem between the furry and gay bdsm crowd so much so that they're one in the same and they constantly overshare their sex obsessed existences online.

Maybe it's different for the straight bdsm stuff, I dunno, but I think that's why so many furries are gay: because gays are all about the fetishes and furry is a fetish they can augment with their bdsm due to being nothing but a bunch of cumbrains.

You trust that gay people want to be publicly decent? Do I have to tell you about gays dressing and dancing around kids during Pride?
