        1. @mbulsht # the fact that we watch a show, then turn around and call someone a "furbag," is disgraceful. Discrimination against one biased upon their fetish, THEIR fetish, is just beyond my logical thinking.

          2. @desmondreznov I'd like to point out that many furry fans aren't even in to the sexual side of the furry fandom. It isn't a fetish for most. It's just a normal healthy fantasy pastime.

            2. @mbulsht Your right, but I think that's where most of the hate is targeted against.

    2. @mbulsht It seems like you're complaining about a disease that is simply human. It exists in you to. The statement "I’ll accept hate on Fox news." I know you'll all throw your biases into it and try and justify it, but you can't. This community and every community before and after will and is like this. This is all a perception that YOU are perceiving, so it certainly exists, but as soon as you put yourself on one side of a fence you are part of your own problem. In fact you're your entire problem. What you have ranted about was in this community the entire time, you were just so amazed by the initial niceness of the community you simply didn't notice it at first. Once it began to sink in is when you noticed. The only honest way to get away from this is to make a forum or something of that nature. Never host the forum on a network of any form. Only you can use the forum. You are the only user. This is the only way to obtain equality and agreement. You won't find persecution there.

      1. @ponybis I disagree, the amount of hate in a few of the recent posts on ED has recently been much higher than it's been in the past. Especially all the furries-must-die stuff in the hoodie post (which Sethisto deleted) and the complaints about how posting the synchtubes has brought a lot of new users there. Well, duh? That's the point, new users are good.

        1. @starshine Yeah, I was shocked at the hatred on EqD on the post dealing with the new Spanish Forums... Lots of racism. Brony, I am dissapoint.

          1. @roygbiv :: Sure that isn't just parasprites?

        2. @starshine Point is as soon as you have a public place that's going to happen. Are you capable of ignoring it? As soon as you have two people that's going to happen. Once you hit a disagreement both people are going to perceive a disagreement. It happens. If one person is existing on the left and the other on the right with a setting that involves our spacial existence there is already a stigma in place for bad things. Every emotion you have is your own and you simply have to learn to control it. If you see a troll post why would you be offended? You should be used to them by now.

          1. @ponybis But the idea of *friendship* is not escalating disagreements into stupid flamewars. We're better than that.

            1. @starshine But you guys are the ones escalating it by whining about it...

              Thursday, 28-Apr-11 02:04:11 UTC from web
              1. @ponybis Are you *sure* you're referring to the civilized discussion here, and not those who are posting offensive and inflammatory comments like "all furkiwis must die in a fire"? Think about it.

            2. @starshine Butttt in the end this is about learning and getting through times like this to better ourselves as friends. If we have disagreements maybe each party can learn from the other sides posts. Arguments are part of friendship and I think it only strengthens the bonds. :) Sorry if I'm coming off as harsh.

              1. @ponybis agreed :) have a muffin!
