AND, all the money gets pooled together from all sources before going to the intended charity. So its not like its all dirty money or something.
Plus, I personally would rather see a charity reap the rewards from a well written work of fiction (smutty or not) then say... A group of scantily dressed underage girls getting themselves soaking wet in a "car wash". ;)
There needs to be some strict guidelines if there is to be an anthology of the adult nature. It has the potential to open a really nasty can of worms... :( I mean, as really sad as it makes me to say this, most of the outside world views furries as a bunch of zoophiles who are just obsessed with sex, and this doesn't really help with that. Did you know that the MSN newscasters actually laughed when someone tried poisoning our furry brothers and sisters with chlorine gas? They barely see us as human...
But yeah...I'm gonna go werk on RF artz now. :3
So I have read both your post and I find most of it totally ridiculous and with your involvement in the past that you have had I find you saying what you did insulting. You know the anthology has been my pet project that me or any of our staff would let what you said happen I find that insulting. The writers at the con asked about an adult type of anthology and we said it could happen, but last year when they asked for it we got 2 stories so if didn't happen. If it does happen this year it would be great, but if it doesn't happen then it will not happen again.
