Think about it...

Ten years...

Come and gone...

Ten years of Fur-Affinity...

You start from nothing with either some form of ability or non at all...

And even then I have seen majority of many stories from others even before being here...

Long story short, I was known as "zapper" long before ever being interwoven with the furry community...

Including the color scheme though where it was appleid was vastly different from a etherial wolf being out time and space...

I always like to take something from somewhere and drastically warp it from its fundamental state, transform it...

It started from a simple game called armagetron advanced, a tron 1982 light cycle clone online multiplayer game...

I played for a couple of years when I was very young and I made a name for myself that people tried to become me and various copycats ensured...

I called myself "Zapper" because of how fast I was and was the codename given to myself to make myself known there...

I added the tag "3L3CTR1FY1NG" as an homage to the R3CONF1FUR3D remix album from Daft Punks Tron Legacy album...

Similar to the story of deadmau5 where he found a fried dead-mouse in his computer called himself the deadmau5 guy on online chatrooms back in the day...

Like him, I used the alias/moniker to unleash the sounds in my head but wasn't till 2015 I took is seriously and tried to go full professional in terms of my quality and ethics with a hint of my madness mixed in...

Even at a young age I was quite ambitious with my mind and the ideas I had and inspirations that drove me down this path...

Looking back, I wish I had the accessibility, concentration, and tools to jumpstart earlier and had actual friends and a supportive family to push me forward but what I got was the ladder and the opposite mentality of a dwindling family dynamic and close minded individuals...

I rarely speak about my past but most don't want to hear nor understand the basis to the foundation and its latching causes and effect onto me and the spread to everyone else...

Since joining this site, I have been around for a good while and know a lot of many things despite me being "unknown" so to speak...

Its up and its downs...

The copycats and the imitators and the influencers that soon follow...

Funny that many people attempted to replicate this site and its platform to branch off failed in their conquest...

And the ones who left always came back in the end...

I stayed because I always knew its potential and its ground in a interconnected community...

Each era had its grounding factors and its internal rebirth has made it stronger...

Though the site has limited functions that need to be implemented and upgraded drastically.,..

Its foundation is rooted its right time of place...

I would highly suggest that focus in expanding the sizes and organization to implement both visual and audio...

A new horizon its on its way and how that will effect this place is based on the force of its community to pressure the developers into a overhaul at, point blank...

But that's only food for thought...

I have seen the rise and fall of many artists over the years...

Some have evolved and some have faded...

Some are still as they were...

Its been quite a journey...

Mentally wild...

On and off...

I have seen the potential of many and supported what I could...

I have seen the ones I noted either push farther or fall faster...

You start realize things as you get older, understand a bit more, grasp the greater value than one singularity...

I may do it for me but I also do it for everyone else because all things are a chain reaction even if the smallest things is poking someone awake...

I have past the perception and thought outside the box and went further beyond and risked my sanity and my stability to push myself further...

Though I personally think I could be doing a lot more as there are many, many, great examples of the type of vast devotion to their craft to the look, feel, design, and execution of said idea to the point that they are dripping in it...

But all things come with a dear cost, and the costs divide and exploit into stances, ideologies, side, black and white, and it corrupts the foundation of said ideas to its sever perversion of its original state of mind...

I am just going off target here as noted to my, excessive journal like ranting...

Though, its weird enough I am fully aware what I am doing and what other people think and my perception is quite vast and open...

But ill end the commemoration of a long journey here...

Endless words to say but all the better to do...

As much as I can say...


Until then...
