This is an older post but I feel the need to cross-post it here as PAWCon has had its foot in its mouth quite often. Might be worth going back and covering all the shit they've rustled.

Bitching on a forum isn't accomplishing much, if you're serious then look into this.

After Sangie was outed in the Zoosadist leaks in 2018 he was vendor at Midwest Furfest and a small con in San Jose CA called Pawcon.

Midwest Furfest:

Pawcon not only hosted Sangie but got complaints for having Growly on staff.

Pawcon is led by a techie furry who faves pedophilia and zoophilia on F-list.

Pawcon is named in the zoosadist chat leaks from Tane, another techie furry in Silicon Valley. In the leaks the zoosadist Tane talks with SnakeThing about drugging and raping victims at cons.

Sangie doesn't show up with other Silicon Valley techie furries but Tane connects to Defcon Furs based in Silicon Valley. Lots of these types hang out with Varka of Bad Dragon at Burning Man.

These connections fly under the radar but there are even more if you dig.

Don't know much about AZFC but if they're willing to let Sangie still have a booth in 2019, it can't be good

Anyone got a link to an anon fileshare site? Had a disgruntled con staffer drop some dox on my lap and wanna share the love!

It's pretty shit but has staff meeting recordings. Yanno if any of you wanted to listen to what the troons running furcons say behind closed doors?

Why not just directly upload them here?
 
The plush one is hilarious, saw a furfag screeching about it last year and being super supportive of that mentally ill faggot, a day later and he went "nvm dude likes cub, fuck them". They turn onto each other so fast.
A shame most cons will be cancelled this year, I enjoy these trashfires.

Watching it go down in real time via twitter was amazing.
 
So, it's been a couple of weeks since Capital City Fur Con (CCFC) folded and Nitro went into DFE mode, so I think it's time to bring up some updates regarding that.

For those who are just hearing about this event now, I'd strongly recommend reading these older posts in the thread by me and LurkerDog to get the whole background, the TLDR summary is this:
-CCFC was a convention that happened in early 2020, it was started by Nitro (Matthew Soltys) mostly so he could brag about having his own event.
-Everything was poorly planned and understaffed, Nitro chased away several qualified people and didn't hire nearly enough replacement people to fill in the gaps.
-The convention nearly got shut down the first night because he never paid an outstanding debt owed to the hotel.
-None of the staff or guests of honor were comped for their rooms or travel despite being promised otherwise.
-None of the attendees had any idea that any of this shit was going on behind the scenes, which is why it didn't get as much traction as other convention drama online.
-Some of the former CCFC staff caught wind of this very thread, got in contact with me, and gave their side of the story. Hilarity ensued and Nitro is doxed in the process.
-CCFC suddenly announces in mid-June that the convention will not be happening next year, allegedly due to unpaid debt. Some former staff asks for a receipt or proof for the money that was supposed to be donated to charity (alleged to be about $4,000 USD), Nitro responds by going into Delete Fucking Everything mode, nukes all of his and CCFC's social media and goes radio silent.
-It's widely believed that Nitro either kept the charity money for himself or used it to pay off some of the outstanding debts.

Shortly after this last bit of drama, I managed to get in contact with two people who had very intimate knowledge of the event and were initially willing to share on the condition of anonymity. However, they've both unfortunately since decided they didn't want to leak anything as one of them is allegedly planning to take legal action against Nitro. So instead, I thought I'd archive some of the drama and stories that popped up on social media.

Let this set the tone for the rest of this post (Archive):

Furry lawyer Boozy Badger made a good twitter thread summarizing a lot of what happened and how boned Nitro is for misappropriating the money (and a smaller followup here). Here's both threads:

Dixie was making a list of how much money furcons had raised for charity, they originally contacted Nitro back in January shortly after the con ended and asked how much was raised for charity, they were told $4,000:

Odin Wolf (who was a guest of honor) confirms CCFC never comped him:

Another furry contacts Nitro about the donations drama, also claims that Nitro tried to pressure them into sex during CCFC:
1592981918697.png1592981969184.png1592981936174.png

Faulty confirms they helped design the mascot, weren't paid, and their art was heavily referenced by another artist (who presumably weren't paid either:

Shadow here was a former friend of Nitro's who helped do some early promotion for CCFC and shared his story:
1592980076549.png
The video he posted is right here, but since it's 12 minutes of a fursuiter talking in a full suit, I'm going to summarize it, and I strongly recommend reading this one because it's probably the juiciest bit in this post:
-Shadow says Nitro is solely to blame for CCFC fucking up as bad as it did
-A lot of people thought the convention was going to crash and burn before it even started, Shadow included
-The biggest problem was gross financial mismanagement
-He brings up the near-shutdown Thursday night; Nitro told Shadow that he had the money sitting in a bank account but there was "some issue in the bank" and it was all the bank's fault that he couldn't pull it out fast enough to pay the hotel, so the only way to save the convention would be if someone was willing to put their credit card down for the hotel "as a placeholder".
-Shadow believed this lie and stupidly put his own personal credit card on the line for the convention. This is the only reason why the convention wasn't immediately shut down for nonpayment.
-After CCFC ended, Shadow is told Nitro can't release the money "for some reason" and he's now stuck with a bill for roughly $15,000. Nitro ignored all of Shadow's attempts to get in contact and get it resolved.
-Shadow was fortunately able to work it out with his credit card company and get the debt transferred back over to Nitro
-There were way more than 8 guests of honor, people who were told they would be a GOH didn't find out they were no longer a GOH until after they arrived at the con and none of them were comped (even though they were promised)
-He praises all the staff and said they worked hard, with the exception of the security staff (this was brought up in some of my earlier writeups)
-Shadow confirms Nitro ghosted almost everyone post-convention and ignored any questions regarding debts or reimbursements
-Nitro invited Shadow to be a Guest of honor for CCFC 2021. The event is unlikely to happen now, Shadow says he wouldn't accept even if it did.

To top all of this off, someone got in contact with me and claimed Nitro tried to groom them 2-3 years ago. They weren't able to provide any evidence to back this up, so take this one with a grain of salt. I'm going to spoiler this one since I can't definitively prove it.

Bonus unrelated (but still really funny) drama: Nitro commissions artwork, doesn't credit the original artist, and claims it's drawn by a popular artist. said artist immediately denies it and Nitro tries to hide this (archive):

- Former chairman (who up to that point was on good terms with the con) was at the con in 2017 and made a huge charity donation in the auction (he's easily good for it).

CFz has no shortage of disgruntled ex staff, the trick is getting them to talk.

Furblefox would be a good one. And Tryst, Rizzorat, Nall and crew. All have had issues with the way the con's run and been very shouty about it on the Twitters.

You mean Cueball? Surely he will be disgruntled from Confuzzled to then.

Whats your opinion on all of this?

First part. Been handed a drop of the UK Furry Event Organisers chat by a source who was fucked off and walked. Hilarious drama. Working on the con stuff, some of it's PL.

EDIT- attachment didn't attach. Here's Mega.

If it was just audio, then I doubt it's something that could break ToS. Not unless you can flag content? That or this guy was uploading other content on the side which was less than savory. Either way, I'm guessing no one got archives, did they?
 
Two interesting developments happened in the ongoing CCFC drama today.

First off, Boozy showed that someone from the ALS Association (the supposed charity) has been trying to get in contact with Nitro (archive) but can't get his contact information because he keeps changing it. They also mention having a contract from Nitro:
1593209804802.png1593209754553.png1593209762470.png


Second, someone managed to get in contact with Nitro's roommate to ask about the donations, so Nitro had them forward a photograph of a printed-off receipt showing that he donated... Except that Nitro grabbed a random donation receipt off google, photoshopped some of the text, printed it off, and took a picture of it. He literally faked a donation receipt (archive) :story:

(3rd pic is Nitro's "proof", 4th is the receipt he stole off google)

I'd post this in the drama thread but since this has to do with Corgi Events (known for Denfur, Sin City Murr Con, Golden State Fur Con, Aquatifur, and Painted Desert Fur Con) I'm posting it here. The drama began when a former Corgi Events staff member had a breakup/restraining order and lost her fursuits:

Apparently the guy was removed from Corgi Events staff and is a pending felon:

I was planning to for a while (since it's one of those threads that deserves it) and just got around to it now. Especially since it seems con drama never ends.

Bryant Holmes (PW Gregory D Sprintz) and Bubbles (PW Alexandra Sprintz née Christensson) are definitely worth keeping up with. Bryant is a massively racist border patrol agent with his fingers in every corner of the fandom, especially its con scene. He is currently undergoing a federal criminal investigation that will likely end with him seeing the inside of a prison cell (can't find any proof right now outside of anecdotal evidence that wasn't recorded) and he very likely raped a mexican detainee. Bubbles is actually the chairwoman of all of the cons you mentioned and her (soon ex) husband did the brunt of the planning for all of those cons. This situation may spell the end for Corgi Events, which'll take all of those cons with it.
