Furries and shit posting
9 years ago
So outside of places like FA that enforce general rules on conduct (primary image boards such as u18chan and 8chan) furries tend to shit post, a lot. Just go to literally any thread on u18chan, read the comments, it's ridiculous. Not to mention the complaining and constant bickering about the dumbest shit you can possibly imagine.
So my question is, why is this a constant theme? When did the furry community devolve into this crap? I mean even FA has plenty of drama and seems to only be better by comparison not because people are better behaved here, but if they value not being banned, they behave. Or is it literally just because the places where I see it the most allow you to post completely anonymously?
I honestly can't figure out what draws out this mentality in furries or if most of the community are just awful people with no respect for any one or appreciation for anything. It's disgusting.
Not trying to sound jaded, but I see it every day.

So, I share your cynicism.
But I feel some communities are worse than others about this sort of behavior. It's why I could never be a "lifestyle" fur, I'm just in it for the art, animation, music and overall liked minded interest. I also don't like the idea of being anti social either, and for the most part I don't get involved, but I also wish the fandom would stop being so shitty all the time.
