A PSA in light of the DDOS attack.
11 years ago
Okay, so from what I read around the internet, a lot of opinions were had when the DDOS attack hit. I was scared, a lot of artists relying on commissions were scared, people using the site were scared. However, I came across some honestly pretty disgusting trash talk among fellow furries' Tumblrs about the whole thing, sarcastically thinking the attack was going to be a death blow to the site. I'm not an expert on websites, but I'm pretty sure FA is going to stick around whether we like it or not. Now, I have my small share of qualms with the site and a few of its actually pretty minor inconveniences, but that isn't enough for me to turn into a gigantic douchebag on my own personal blog and go typity typity typity about how Dragoneer sucks a large cock and all the admins are terrible, and blah blah blah, etc. etc.
So here is a special message from me to everybody still using this site who hate the admins and hate FurAffinity:
Go fuck your respective selves with a cactus and leave. Nobody is making you stay here.
Hell, if you're a guy who relies on commissions, move to Weasyl and let everybody know you're doing it if you really can't take it here anymore. Don't degrade yourself into a raving lunatic and act like a motherfucking adult about it. Capiche?
As for the rest of you, please enjoy your stay. I will, no matter what reputation this site or its admins have.

But then, most people on Tumblr are little whiny shitbags with an over-inflated sense of grandiose and ill-placed justice.
I, for one, am not leaving FA anytime soon.
That'll only happen when it becomes overbearing, swamped with trolls and run by people who really don't give a shit about the place one way or the other much like what happened with Sheezy Art.
