Furry Fandom and Drama General

There did seem to be mismanagement or something going on, but evidently it was not enough to tank the con. Not until the AltFurry dumbasses pulled that harassment campaign and made the hotel get antsy enough to do what it did. No way was CaliFur going to be able to find another venue without some real pros doing the con work.

Losing the hotel was the deathblow, and Altfurry were at least the catalyst to the whole situation, even if they didn't cause the myriad of other problems CaliFur was having behind the scenes.
It's socal and it's a furry con. Something else was gonna fuck it over at this rate, and their rep was really poor. Look how they're handling the whole "hotel kicked us" situation, or refunds for this year.
A tweet about the gofundme had some insightful replies to it:

No doubt, but AltFurry were the ones that started playing the funeral dirge, and it's hard to downplay their involvement or feel sympathy when we've documented it all here. Naturally hotels don't want anything to do with it all and this wasn't the first time one has decided to show a con the door.


I recall this event. I wonder if BD still sells that jersey.
 
I don't know where to start on this pile of autism. Hating people for being inspired by others, to Prawst not understanding trademark protection and cease and desists (he's also an insufferable nigger), to someone thinking Bad Dragon stole packers from them (hey, chick with the penis envy, Fleshlight has been making packers for years, you don't own the concept).

The SJW side of the fandom is exceedingly retarded at times.
 
He's basically a wandering trainwreck who goes from fad to fad and his current fad is cryptocurrency and trooning out.

Prost has always been a butthole to people, so nothing has changed. He's your typical sycophant furry but with a massive ego. Those are dime-a-dozen nowadays and Prost is just a relic from ye olde days of memery.

Prat cheated on and pretty much emotionally wrecked a girl who was friends with a mutual of mine. I've had a sour taste in my mouth about him since. No surprise he trooned out and is trying to act all high and mighty about his tryhard 4channer past.

... What exactly precipitated the trooning out, does anyone know? I can't be assed to look through his Tumblr archives to find out.

Yeah, once people are done doing fingerpointing, it'll be interesting to see what thinkpieces come up that document a timeline of Califur's demise. If there's one thing I honestly dislike about furry fandom, in its modern state, is that they don't seem keen to archive their history or talk about a lot of the really interesting aspects (i.e. con behind the scene stories).

At least people are shutting down the Leftist "REEEE ALT-FURRY REEEEE" talk by pointing out to people that, yeah, for once Alt-Furry was not behind this (though it's still funny they got as far as they did) and only hastened a demise that was coming from years of managerial ineptitude and a total lack of forethought and logistics planning. Among many, many other things, apparently.

I don't know but its horrifying to me he wears the same outfit everyday. Atleast cwc changes his shirt once in awhile.:

it wasn’t hoot was it? i know they had a huge break up that causes her to claim she had PTSD and required a service dog.
 
Jesus, it even dresses up like an obnoxious asshole. Also looks like he didn't put any effort into being a woman aside from applying some foundation and shitty lipstick. Looks like a fucking drag queen you see hanging around Castro street

No, it wasn't Hoot. Saying who exactly or giving more specific details would run the risk of "outing" me outside of the Farms, though, and that ain't a risk I'm willing to take.

I will say that, while this person was pretty miserable after the breakup, she didn't turn out nearly as badly as Hoot did and actually moved on in a healthy manner.

Prat is such an exceptional individual. I bet you he'll be pushing the party lord facade well into his mid 60's , and he'll probably be the furry equivalent of that "How do you do, kids" meme or something at a convention, swamp witch attire or no.
 
Good news, everyone! I found @caseyexplosion. This furry has been cited up and down kiwifarms:

This crazy person had a cow crossover with Moviebob today (unrelated topic), they also have tweets to Nora Reed about this very topic I'm quoting, in fact the shared tweets are quite extensive:

Our leftyfur pal Casey says to never quote tweet dunks on a TERF because it jeopardized peoples twitter accounts and encourages blocking them all so they can't "hurt" you by reporting your tweets. :story:

These are their KF posts, apparently we may have found them..?

This is me just doing random cow interaction searches and scrolling all the way down:
Add all the above with being an ANTIFA fan, an annoying SJW, a GG hanger-on and having an highly exceptional furry avatar (yes that is their fursona).

The only reason I wouldn't make a thread on them is this: Their Patreon is strictly for supporting 2 creators, and they don't seem to beg for money (searched the terms donate, help, with no begging results), which leads me to think that they may be actually beneficial to society with like, an actual job.

I'm torn on Prost. I ignore his/her/its shitposting stuff and just really tune in on their politics talk like about Syria and all of that on tumblr (their handle is uhh... diarrheaworldstarhiphop). They're pretty insightful imo but actually seeing this is almost night and day. ALMOST.

Wait, didn't prost used to work for Titmouse or something? Or was that someone else who had the diarrheaworldstarhiphop username?

I think he used to work for Titmouse but I don't want to give any false info.

So right now on Twitter, the arguments for CaliFur going tits up are:

- Leftist Furs are blaming the Alt-Furry for it
- People are correcting them by saying that "lolnope, there were issues for years even before alt-furry was a thing, what are you talking about"

I'm not 100% on the up and up of Califur's history, but it sounds to me like it was becoming Rainfurrest 2.0: years of inept leadership and organization that built up over the years, slowly reaching the breaking point in various ways. Alt-furry's antics last year and this year were basically the straw that finally broke the camel's back and the hotel just didn't want to deal with them anymore.

This would be the part where I express optimistic hope that maybe, just maybe, having two long-running conventions being cancelled would spur the furry fandom into some self-reflection to figure out what went wrong and how they can fix it in earnest... but they don't fucking care, they just want to have parties and break shit like they always do at these things. They're never going to change at this rate.

honestly id attribute califurs downfall to one of the founders disintegrating health and then death. he held a lot of that con together, and when he died it pretty much fell apart. alt-furry was just the nail in the coffin

im hoping that most of the conventions die out tbh, then we'd get some "social darwinism" to make the remaining cons that much stronger. or itll make them worse, i mean this is the furry fandom we're talking about here
