Furry Fandom and Drama General

this picture is a failure because Postal Dude literally cannot kill the kids and the level instantly game-over's shortly after
Is this image better?

Narcissism is pretty common among furries, but dang. Gotta make a whole channel dedicated to yourself because people don't like you? Must have doen a lot to deserve it. Only thing I know about the guy is he runs Furry Statistics and the adult version on Telegram. He regularly bans anyone he doesn't like (aka right-wing).

Posting "he/they" and "she/they" is redundant since everyone already uses they. Just another attention-seeking trend.

Yeah, Saphy is a terrible person. Word from a local pal of mine is he drugged and had sex (The sex was consensual until he was drugged) with someone barely 18 and then had him banned from the local telegram chats for speaking out about it. He runs the PDXfurs group which is one of the larger Portland/Oregon area chats. Pretty sure the dude is in his 30s and has a kid... Very concerning.

Saphy has been accused of fucking dogs for years now going so far as to wear a shirt saying something along the lines of "I don't fuck dogs" or something. Iirc he's seen wearing it in the last Rainfurrest picture gallery if anyone is curious to look for it.

I do not trust hearsay, especially in the furry fandom. Rumors can spread from a person who has a grudge/beef against another and it catches on like wildfire because the general public will believe without critical thinking of their own. Going to need more proof than "it must be true if everyone is saying it!" If you're going to say they've done something, either have actual proof in physical evidence or a detailed account of you witnessing it or evidence of it, which will then come under the scrutiny of your peers.

I've heard unspecific murmurs of "Saphy is an asshole/creep" in the past but not "Saphy is a dog diddler".

If you've got something, drop it here I guess.
I can definitely understand the apprehension to believe unsubstantiated rumors, and I wish I could prove these more beyond "Someone told me x". As far as the dog diddling goes, its been a rumor floating around for years with no substation evidence (Supposedly there are pictures, but I've never seen them), even before the massive zoophile outing. Its not something I personally believe, but I felt it relevant to point out for those who haven't heard to the guy, and the things people are saying about him. I understand the need for concrete evidence, and in these cases you're right, the furry fandom latches onto and propagates stupid rumors which overtime are just taken at face value.

The most I can provide for the drugging accusation is telegram chat snippets from another local chat from the accuser. I apologize for the fucked up screenshots, this is the only way they would give me them:

Just as an aside, this is a pretty common trend with furries. I could probably pull up a dozen links right now of people who make text channels as a bio since they don't want to limit themselves to 70 characters. Is it cringe? Absolutely. But Saphy is not the only one

The way these people valuate themselves is bizarre to me - "what I AM makes me valuable" rather than "what I DO makes me valuable", but that's the start of a tangent.

Am I the only one old enough to remember the old-school advice of not giving people on the internet too much information about yourself?
 
Kind of a fork of/elaboration on "don't talk to strangers" isn't it?
Yes and no. Really doesn't matter whether or not you talk to someone if you just put everything out there. Even before the age of the internet, people who overshared were likely to get their asses kicked at some point

This is one of the reasons I decided to distance myself from thelocal furfags, there were a lot of truly awful people that did despicable things and just shielded themselves on "But I am an Artist!/Fursuiter!/Maker!/Trans!/Gay!/NB!" And so on and so forth.

Back in my day there was this unspoken rule of not revealing critical information online (Don't reveal your age, conceal your IRL name, never state explicitly where you live, etc, etc.) Now it even seems that they even have a public document stating at what time they take a dump and their favorite position to do so.

To be completely fair, I feel like this seems to be an internet-wide thing lately, it's not just exclusive to furries (though good god, do some furries overshare). Everyone seems willing to put their full name out there for the sake of e-fame, which also seems to have the side effect of making people super-easy to dox. Society as a collective somehow went from "don't share too much so you don't get exposed later" to 12-year olds uploading twerking videos to TikTok under their real name.

In another thread I was doing research for, I managed to fully dox someone in less than 20 seconds on google because they were seriously stupid enough to set their fursona's name as their nickname on their public Facebook profile, and once you have someone's Facebook you can glean a ton of information from that alone.
 
(though good god, do some furries overshare)
There's also frequently intense pressure on the ones who DON'T engage in this behavior to start doing it by the oversharers. It's hard to pin down an exact reason for this but I suspect at least a third of it by now is a form of "purity testing", and most of the rest of it is no-lifers desperately seeking to live vicariously through others.
