Most people do not look at, say, a tiger, and think "Hey look how that tiger gets a boner when it see another tiger. I identify with that! I'm going to adopt that useful trait!"
Oddly enough, neither do most furries.
Most people tend to find sufficient adversaries without turning animal fucking into a hobby.
Do you fuck animals and are looking for an adversary? If so I would be happy to oblige. I may have to turn to you as in the pool of furs I know, no one fucks animals. At least, no one admits to it. Of course, I doubt anyone would admit to said act. You seem stuck on this act of beastiality, is there perhaps something you'd like to get off your chest? We all are in line for gassing afterall! What are you in line for?
If I was drawing a line in the sand then "dressing up like an animal and fucking other animals" would be so far on the gassing side you might as well just climb in the oven now.
I love this generalization. I've seen a small percentage of furs in the fursuits and an extremely smaller still percentage who actually screw animals. It's probably on par with the average of the general populace that finds sex with animals attractive.
This post is namely feeding a troll as work is slow on Thursdays so I am enjoying this a little admittedly. My defense hasn't really been all that rabid, although that's more of a subjective opinion so I really can't judge it that well. It is relatively easy to demonize a particular group based on it's more outlandish patrons. Like I said before however, if they're going to gas the 'freaks', you, me and most likely everyone else on/. falls into some categorization of freak that the 'normal populace' would be afraid of.
Most furry I know and hang out with are quiet, pretty laid back and are generally well behaved. What's so wrong with 'unleashing your inner dragon' anyways? Most people do a similar form of escapism and empowerment by identifying themselves with an archetype and trying to adopt perceived good traits from it. I babble on. Enough feeding trolls. This will probably earn me a few enemies, but what the hell. Life is no fun if there's no adversary.
Yeah, damned vampires and demons! I kid! Sides, I say this as a furry. Most the time it's not really prejudice, it's more like caution towards us. I'll be the first to admit, some of us look pretty odd, even by my standards. Some of us also act like total douches. Most of us are harmless though and tend to mimic/b/ way more than we care to admit. Enough of that talk tho. *sighs and dons target again* Sides, we developed into where we are now with tribal behaviors, it's not going to go away cause we have iPods and HD.
Dupres? We've met on the field of battle before my friend. I miss those days. My ability to attack was 'adequate' at best, but man I could tweak my friends out.
In short, can anyone confirm that there is a PvE endgame where you group up with X friends and fight tough bosses (where X >= the number of fingers you possess)?
See, I'm just the opposite. I can't stand raiding most the time. Did it in EQ2, did it in WoW, etc. It is fun for the first time through, but after that it becomes glorified farming. Don't get me wrong, I am not trying to pick on you or your preferences. Nothing wrong with liking raiding. Most of the time I play MMORPG games, I am by myself or wish to solo with very little grouping.
I used to play Dark Age of Camelot religiously (Trials of Atlantis can still kiss my ass) and loved the RvR combat. Some of those fights were EPIC. I would sometimes go to work zombified cause I didn't know when to quit (thankfully I learned). I miss that kind of experience.
"Hey, our faction is attacking one of the other factions!"
"Which one?"
"I dunno, but let's jump in on this and see if we can't beat the crap outta something!"
This is just me though. The PvP in WoW felt forced. It was (let's be fair here) an after thought. I look forward to trying out WAR, for hopes of rekindling that love that DAoC gave me towards PvP and RvR combat.

... will the doomsayers ever learn for the next time? Probably not. I'm sure next time they'll say
"this time, its different, the world is really going to end this time".
Don't knock the doomsayers man! When they think the world is going to end, they start selling (never understood this? The world is gonna end! My couch for $20! Just in case I need to pay a toll on the way to the afterlife..) or giving away all their stuff! I need a new couch so I hope they get all spooked. If I'm lucky, one will have been a gadget nerd and I can get some computer parts too!

Before I start making fun and ranting, let me point out I believe in the possibility of reincarnation, it makes an awesome instant breakfast. (This is just a personal religious view (me being Pagan), it is more than likely false, I know, but it does bring me comfort and amusement when I am bored.) Now... With that said, ever notice how people who admit to remembering these things are always someone famous or nobility or special in someway? One guy was George Washington or a woman was Cleopatra, and so on. You never hear someone remembering their past life as some miserable peasant during the time of feudal lords who had to do nothing but shovel horse shit for a living. Even if people do live multiple lives through reincarnation, I'm willing to bet you won't remember it, and if you do, it will be something unpleasing. Not everyone gets to be an astronaut when they grow up and not everyone was Abe Lincoln in a past life.
Don't take it personally, but I can't have any respect for people (or their opinion) who use the phrase "epic fail"...makes one sound like those immature "cool" kids on the web.
Guild Wars has some similarities to existing MMORPGs
[...]
Rather than labeling Guild Wars an MMORPG, we prefer to call it a CORPG (Competitive Online Role-Playing Game).
Suppose that's better than Competitive Online Role-Playing System Entity.
It could be just me, but I honestly don't care enough about what other employees or coworkers are doing to bother sneaking about their crap. If it's anything like their desktops, I'm probably going to see hundreds of cute kitten photos, pictures of family and a bunch of music hidden under folders named things like, "NotMP3s".
When I was an admin (short stint so I could pay bills, 3 years) I usually didn't give a rat's ass about what the users stored on their system unless it showed up in my virus scan reports or I was told to investigate someone due to "suspicious behavior". (BTW folks, before you get off on the 'evil spying on users' tangent for me, it was only twice and it was two girls working in tandem selling info to another company on how much certain people were paid.) I never could understand the whole "I have the power!" attitude some people showed when it came to passwords or how they'd screw the company if they were laid off. If I felt I was unfairly fired or downsize or funsized, whatever, that's what my lawyer is for (he works for cheap cause I fix his laptop, heh). Why complicate issues by fudging with the network access?
Maybe I'm just too young to understand yet. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to play with my army men, we're planning an attack on the tan army on the coffee table and I gotta move equipment for em.

What really rubs me the wrong way is how you haven't heard a single word from the admin and yet he is blamed for everything.
Well, every Stalin needs his Trotsky!

It's not caution. Furries should be gassed.
If us, then every other freak should meet the same fate. I look forward to seeing you in line at the chambers comrade.

I'm still researching to see if my ultimate dream is even legal in this state.
All I can say is that if your faith is shaken by if someone says fuck (or other profanity of choice) or not, it must be some pretty weak faith.
On that note: Cock!

Well said good Sir. I do believe I have found a new friend.

Well, the internets IS serious business.

Any thoughts on a nice little compare and contrast of the 'teleportation physics' between Prey and Portal?
If you liked Total Annihilation, you'll probably like Supreme Commander. Good stuff. Reminds me of TA a lot.
And now the moon! Ha! We're getting good at blowing things up... Hmmm... *searches closet for asbestos suit* Might need this...
