== History and services ==

Initially a [[Yahoo!]] Group, the community moved to a website format in 2003. Apart from the website and forum, there is also an [[IRC]] chatroom, and there was a [[Furcadia]] [[dream]] by [[Flinch Ferrex]], an unofficial LiveJournal community (moderated by [[Shipanda]]), and a [[Wikipedia:Frappr!|Frappr!]] page. In 2019, a Discord server was established for FT members. Soon after the Discord server was made public, the site went down due to "Connection Problems" as represented by the error on the main page.

Due to unknown reasons, the administration has been unable to bring the site back up, and Furry Teens is now defunct, it is unknown if the Discord Server is still active.

== Community's goals ==

Furry Teens is designed to be a place where a lot of creativity can be expressed by artists, [[writer]]s, gamers, and other furry fans. Furry Teens also encourages open-mindedness and innovation, along with giving and receiving support on "growing up" topics, and helping new furs better understand the furry fandom. The group aims to provide a safe haven for young members of the fandom, primarily minors, who are often unwelcome at other furry sites because of their age, and continues to grow in members and features.
