Topic: What do you think ruined the furry fandom?

If everything started over, what would you do to make it better? -Something normal people would be okay with?
I have some ideas, but I'd like to hear yours first.

Though seriously, not sure if it can ever even be.

Well I've been thinking about our Anthrocore idea, so if anyone were to start from scratch, the most important thing would be to fully understand what made furry not work in the first place. We have some ideas already, but outside input is really important too.
@previous (D)
Yeah, that's one of the biggest issues we nailed down.

My prediction is that this will go over about as big as trekkies trying to re-brand themselves as trekkers.

The whole idea is that there would be no circlejerking, pornography, recolors, crazy faggots, or anything of that nature. I mean, the idea is to attract people who are unhappy with those things and don't have any other outlet for a more innocent appreciation of anthropomorphic animals. I understand what you mean, but the furry fandom started attracting people who care less about anthropomorphism and more about fitting in somewhere or finding an outlet for some sort of fetish.

the shitty creepy porn being plastered everywhere
the unoriginality of it all
the overall patheticness of furries
the assumption that your sick fetish should be known to everyoneand everything, and that anyone who says otherwise should fuck off.

So basically you want an Internet community that encompasses absolutely nobody with Internet access.

You have to set a more realistic goal. Mainly it's the drama, egotism and victim complex that's killed the fandom, and that at least can be fixed by a better community.

It's mainly the huge concentration of inadequately treated or handled mental illnesses and personality disorders that does it.

Why do people hate furries? I never had a reason to hate them. It just seems like unjustified hate. I just found out that an old classmate and friend of mine is into furry.

Eh, more like 'hate' in a meme sense. I don't think many people care that much... but furries (generally) are drama queens and attention whores.

A fursuit? The only group of people I can think of that is similar to furries is the bronies, notice they jam their shtick in pretty much everywhere as well.

They both love anthropomorphic animals and being aspies.
Just bronies like a more specific type of anthro, the pony.
