It is fun to occasionally partake in such debauchery. I’m no prude and I’m not afraid to admit I’m also a bit of a horny guy. So partaking in the occasional kinky, sexy fiction can be fun. Except for a furry it isn’t really fiction, which is where a lot of weirdness and unease comes from.

I'm a furry and I'm unsure what you mean by this

members inside of communities will get pushed outside of this comfort bubble and be reminded about reality. This is the cause for a lot of infamous furry drama.

and I'm really not sure what you're talking about here

We know you know about rainfurrest. We know you know.

Funny how one event where the actions of a few people fucked everything up must imply something for the whole group, especially since there's bigger, long-running conventions like Anthrocon that have become part of the city's event culture like any other festival. But you don't hear about that because it's not scandalous.

And I know you know that Rainfurrest happened in 2015 and nothing even remotely like it has been seen at the hundreds of much larger furry conventions that have happened since.

But you were soooo unsure what they were talking about, now it did happen but it wasn't a big deal.

Next: it was a big deal but those poor bystanders deserved it.

Neither of the parts of that comment I quoted could reasonably be talking about Rainfurrest, first of all. Second of all, nowhere did I say it wasn't a big deal; I said the people who perpetrated that were quite severely punished and nothing even remotely similar to that has happened before or since. Lastly, I can't help but notice you didn't reply to the other person who replied to you asking why the entire furry fandom should be criticized because of the actions of a tiny handful of their members nearly a decade ago.
