Kobura: Incomprehensive update aug 2015

{{Cleanup}}
'''Kobura Shinja Cape''' (aka Kobu) is one of the moderators at [[Furgasmic.com]].

He was introduced to the [[furry fandom]] around 2004, when a search for a picture led him to an entirely new concept for him: [[furry]].

The [[fursona]] of Kobura was an idea that came from a dream and later took on a life of his own. A [[Wikipedia:Cobra|cobra]]-[[Wikipedia:Naga|naga]] of sorts, he refers to himself as a 'scaleblood' or a 'coldkin'. He is entirely black, with his body entirely scaly from snout to tail-tip.

==Forum Activity and Tenure at Furgasmic==

He initially joined an unnamed website in late 2006, several years after Kobura's creation, but was asked to leave due to his still being underage. Upon the day he turned eighteen, he returned to the same site and saw that it was not as good as what he remembered. A respected friend, [[Vulpes Proeliator]], guided him to Furgasmic. They later were both appointed forum moderators. In addition to the forum, he moderated the [[FurNet (IRC)|Furnet IRC]] chat, both furgasmic and furgasmicyiff, though neither channel boasts him as a member any longer. He had since branched out on IRC, to regularly occupy channels as Fur Affinity as well, but withdrew from Furnet in general. In the past his presence has been identified on [[Anthrochat]].

www.furgasmic.com has since closed down due to the site's owner's personal decision.

==Conference Activities==

Kobura's first [[con]] was [[FA: United]] 2007 in Newark, New Jersey, and he volunteered there.

Kobura also made his way to [[FurFright]] 07 as well.

Kobura has become a fixture at FA:U, and since 2008 has been as formal a staff member as any. His duties include but are not limited to the direct control of FA:U's volunteer force he refers to as the "FA:Union," named such because of his support of the volunteers as a sort of 'union representative,' ensuring their enjoyment of the convention and tending to their needs often personally.

As of agreements and dark pacts signed at FurFright 2011, Kobura will be enslaved at each ensuing FurFright as well, in accordance with the prophecies.

Kobura has continued to attend and volunteer-staff each [[FA: United]] and plans to continue doing so.

==Real Life data==

[[image:Photo_Kobura_8-8-07.jpg|thumb|250px|Kobura Self-photo]]
Kobura battled with Ulcerative Colitis from his 9th-grade year until January of 2007, for a short time being the worst documented pediatric case of the disease in the Lehigh Valley. Diagnosed around age 15, he fought the illness until November of 2006, at which time he had his entire large intestine removed in a pair of surgeries. In January of 2007, he underwent an emergency surgery for a rupture of the sutures from the previous operations, which went cery successfully. However as time has gone on, complications have arisen from the disorders and their effects. Permanent dehydration is a constant companion, as is a difficulty in maintaining proper nutritional balance. Recent months have yielded extreme stress, mental fatigue, and a general difficulty in endurance at work and play.

Kobura is very active and open about his experience and prides himself on helping others with chronic illnesses, particularly intestinal disorders. His surgeon was a colo-rectal expert of Bethlehem St. Luke's hospital. He happily talks about his experience, freely offers advice or support to others undergoing similar circumstances, and is extremely disease-awareness-oriented.

On January 1st, 2014, Kobura was married after a short courtship, but maintains physical, social, and emotional independence. Those interested should not be deterred from inquiring.

Kobura is currently living in Columbia, South Carolina.

Kobura: /* Real Life data */

{{Cleanup}}
'''Kobura Shinja Cape''' (aka Kobu) is one of the moderators at [[Furgasmic.com]].

He was introduced to the [[furry fandom]] approximately three years ago, when an idea and a search for a picture led him to an entirely new concept for him: [[furry]].

The [[fursona]] of Kobura was an idea that came from a dream and later took on a life of his own. A [[Wikipedia:Cobra|cobra]]-[[Wikipedia:Naga|naga]] of sorts, he refers to himself as a 'scaleblood' or a 'coldkin'. He is entirely black, with his body entirely scaly from snout to tail-tip.

www.furgasmic.com has since closed down due to the site's owner's personal decision. Kobura is no longer actively looking to join into another community, or create one himself, having largely withdrawn as an internet presence of late.

==Conference Activities==

Kobura's first 'con' was that of [[FA: United]] 2007 in Newark, New Jersey. He had an incredibly good first con, as self-described, and volunteered what turned from "probably not enough to be recorded" to over 24 hours as he kept agreeing to more and more movements and assignments, his final hour of service being the Closing Ceremonies. Kobura is looking forward to attending 2008's FA:United, and with his admission paid for by volunteering, looks to become an actual staff member for the upcoming event.

Kobura also made his way to [[FurFright]] 07 as well, where he met one of his favorite artists [[Dark Natasha]] and successfully commissioned a pencil-artwork from her. He was unable to volunteer at the con, as his attendance was a surprise to him, and his opinion of FurFright was a bit deflated. "I'm happy when I'm working... FA:U kept me busy doing things I wanted to be doing anyway, it was a great experience... I'd like to work (security) at every con I can."

Kobura was recently informed of some changes that allowed him to proceed to [[Megaplex]] 2008 in Jacksonville, Florida, and is 'looking forward to the con itself, hopefully volunteering at it, and seeing the 'Sunshine State' of Florida as well as some of the people there.' Kobura did not volunteer after all, however.

Kobura currently living in eastern Pennsylvania once more. He is eager to meet nearby furs and eventually those further away as well.

Kobura is looking forward to making an impact on the furs of the area in as many positive ways as he can, guaranteeing attendance at FAU '11, and perhaps FF '11 and/or MWFF/MFF '11.

Talk:Crusader Cat

2009-08-16T12:34:56Z

Kobura: Forgot my signature.

Crusader Cat is editing his own WikiFur page to obfuscate the fact that he has admitted to sexual abuse of animals. He has written his article to hide the fact that the reason furries are angry with him is not because he is a Christian, but rather that he is using his religious beliefs to project his crimes onto others not guilty of his sin of animal rape.--[[Special:Contributions/150.131.162.41|150.131.162.41]] 17:41, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

:Controversial claims must not only be well sourced, but when it is about a person, there must be a good argument why the information should be made public. Just because something is true doesn't necessarily mean it belongs here. If you wish to continue your efforts to include the information in the article, please register an account to do so. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 16:28, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

::Absolutely! Unfortunately, Crusader Cat has deleted the Adobe Acrobat PDF file from his FurAffinity account where he describes, in graphic detail, of sexually abusing his pets. Before Crusader Cat deleted his PDF file confessing animal sexual abuse from FurAffinity, I saved it to my computer. I would be happy to expose all supporting documents of Crusader Cat's confession of sexually abusing his pets if you would kindly link to me a document describing how I might upload these documents directly to WikiFur.

::I not only have that PDF file saved to my computer as evidence of his crime, but the video I sourced in Crusader Cat's article, that you deleted, shows Crusader Cat confessing to molesting his pets. Anyone reading this, interested in watching Crusader Cat admit to sexually abusing his pets, can go through the history of the Crusader Cat article and find the video sourced in a previous version of the article of Crusader Cat confessing to sexually abusing his animals.

::The integrity of WikiFur is at stake when people guilty of serious crimes can produce false articles depicting themselves as clean, moral, and decent people. A false "Crusader" who is actually more guilty of the crime of animal sexual abuse than most all furries should never be tolerated to hide his past. How would you like it if a criminal donned the title "crusader" and then came to your social group commanding you and your friends to repent of a crime none of you had committed -- but he had? That is what is happening here, and Crusader Cat is exploiting WikiFur as the source of documentation of the furry fandom to whitewash his past. Crusader Cat pretends like those who disagree with him hate him for being a Christian when the reality is that he is hated because he sexually molested his pets and then approached furries as a saint offering forgiveness when he is the one who needs forgiveness for his detestable crime of animal rape.

::No one should be allowed to use WikiFur as a platform to produce a sparkling clean article about themselves when reality is quite different. No one should be allowed to drum up support for a cause, when they themselves are in gross violation of the cause they purport to represent without exposure of the facts of their past crimes. No one guilty of serious crimes should use WikiFur to falsely portray themselves as a pious angel of religious indemnity while feigning innocence and condemning others. The truth is that those people Crusader Cat claims are "haters of Christianity" are, in actuality, angry of Crusader Cat's sexual abuse of animals followed by falsely accusing others guilty of his crime while pretentiously wrapping himself up in a cloak of holiness.

::Again, I would be happy to expose all supporting documents of Crusader Cat's confession of sexually abusing his pets if you would kindly link to me a document describing how I might upload these documents directly to WikiFur. Why should a animal molestor, such as Crusader Cat, be allowed to make himself a sparkling clean article of himself as a Crusader against sexual abuse without exposing his own past as a animal abuser? Seems to me, Crusader Cat is more guilty of the crime of animal sex abuse than most of the furries he condemns. -- [[Special:Contributions/150.131.162.175|150.131.162.175]] 20:53, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Just tell me, who are you on FA? Assuming of course your a furry and not a troll. {{unsigned|Crusader Cat}}

== I support including this information here. ==

Crusader Cat has written this article in order to show himself in the best possible light. This is human nature and is to be expected. However, WikiFur should not be used for whitewashing one’s past. CC is disliked by many due to his sexual abuse of animals, and while CC claims that he is disliked for being Christian, the real reason for many peoples dislike should be shown.

To 150.131.162.175, please create an account here and start the process of formally adding this information. I did not save CC's PDF file. [[Special:Contributions/173.45.201.98|173.45.201.98]] 11:03, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

:Additionally: I would like to point out that CC has responded to 150.131.162.175 on FA. I can only assume he presumes FA a better venue for the discussion.
:"Stop wasting your time, the admin there are not retarded and aren't going to fall for your tricks. What you are doing is illegal, immoral, and cowardly. People have tried this to me before and their IP's got banned, Yours will too soon and all hope of doing anything there will be gone for good."

I am hated because I am a Christian, much of the hate mail I received was from people who had no knowledge of what I have done. Check the link and you will see that there is no recorded message of someone getting angry with me because of mistakes I made. I wrote this article to portray myself in the most neutral possible light. This article was altered to portray myself in the worst possible light. the Admins knew this and that's why they called him out on it. It is well within my right to respond to the other guy through other mediums (assuming he's on FA) and is not the busness of the admins here. Thus, this new information is just as useless as the previous information. {{unsigned|Crusader Cat}}

:We at Wikifur make an effort to be good neighbors in the furry community. A part of that deals with how we handle derogatory or controversial information about people. Most if not all of us have done things in that past that are less than admirable; we are not about digging up dirt on people. Our policy on such information is that in order for it to be allowable on the site, first, we hold it to a higher standard of verifiability than most other information on the site, and second, that a good case can be made that it is in the public interest of furry fandom that this information be made public.
:The claim has been made that Crusader Cat has sexually abused animals in the past. I have not reviewed the evidence enough to form an opinion of whether that's true, but even if it is, I'm not convinced it belongs here. I will review the available information later on (I can't do it right now because I'm at work and my employer blocks access to a couple of the websites where the information resides). If this appears to be something that he is currently practicing and advocating, I might be convinced to change my mind, but if it's only past transgressions or questionable accusations we're talking about here, I probably won't. (Disclaimer: This is one admin's opinion; other admins may have differing views on how best to handle this situation.)
:By the way, I'm a furry Christian and I've never received any hate mail because of it. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 17:33, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

:: The reason I believe the information should be included is CC's desire to claim persecution solely for being Christian. Whereas many dislike him for what he's done in the past (and claiming other furries do). Thank you for your professionalism, by the way, not every 'Christian' is willing to listen to reason in situations where an evangelical is arguing against others. --[[Special:Contributions/173.45.201.98|173.45.201.98]] 23:52, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

::While the claim itself is true, the recent edit by this person was created in such a way to create a mental slant against me. When you have the time, check out the youtube video or the essay on furtopia. I myself have admitted here on Wikifur that I have had struggles with bestiality, that's all anyone coming here needs to know, they don't need to know the nasty details of what I have done, if they can then they can easily check the links provided. Nor do the people coming here need to know the ins and outs of what I have said in the essay (i.e. telling exactly what segments of the video in witch I am making a claim) Also, the claim that many people hate me for what I have done is inaccurate. Very few people got angry because of this, and this person is obviously one of them. Once again, check the link and see that there is no evidence that I have documented which makes mention of zoophile bashing hate messages. While I am currently struggling with bestiality, I am not practicing, and I am most definitely not advocating it (as you will see by reading the essay). I am glad to find that you also are a Christian, and envy you for the peace you have experienced among the fandom. Presumably, God has called you as a witness to someone else other than furries so you are not actively involved in trying to bring more furrs to Christ. That being said, it is understandable if no other furrs have persecuted you, I hope your association with me will not bring any undeserved hatred on you. I trust and pray that you and the other admins will make a wise decision. {{unsigned|Crusader Cat}} -- confirmable at http://furry.wikia.com/index.php?title=Talk:Crusader_Cat&action=history 18:36, 18 June 2009 Crusader Cat

:::I have a question, Crusader Cat. If you have nothing to hide about your criminal past as you claim, why have you attempted to blank the mere discussion of your user article (the page you are reading right now) multiple times? Check the history ( http://furry.wikia.com/index.php?title=Talk:Crusader_Cat&action=history ) of this page ( [[Talk:Crusader Cat]] ) for proof of your attempts to blank this page four times. --[[Special:Contributions/150.131.162.92|150.131.162.92]] 21:48, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Now that I've had a chance to review both YouTube videos on my own time, I stand by what I said earlier. Referring to Crusader Cat's past acts as a "criminal past" is questionable at best and putting a pejorative spin on it at the minimum. I could say a lot more but there are better places for it than a Wikifur talk page. At this time I see no reason to include any more negative statements about CC than what he has included on his own. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 03:58, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

:I was not aware that this needed to remain up for historical reasons. After seeing it re uploaded several times, I was told by one of the other admins here that It had to stay up, now that this drama is basically over I might be deleted again (unless the admins say other wise). what you posted here is no different from the other times people come here to harass me, thus I did not feel it belonged here. But since it apparently does, it can be a record of your bias and hatred toward someone who is just doing what his God asked of him.{{unsigned|Crusader Cat }}

You should know that I, [[Special:Contributions/206.127.78.65|206.127.78.65]] 16:55, 20 June 2009 (UTC), am different from [[Special:Contributions/173.45.201.98|173.45.201.98]]. There are at least two people on this page other than you and the moderator. Know that I consider you very lucky -- and sheltered -- for an animal molester who has openly admitted to trying to get your kittens to "lick" your genitals and many other bad things you did to your kittens that, you admit, made them decide to scratch you for (I still have that PDF file, remember).

::::It's not that fact that you are a Christian that makes me angry. I know many Christians who are decent people. I like them.

::::The fact that you molested animals makes me very angry, but that alone is not enough to make me want to chase you to the ends of the Earth, since you have found Jesus and are no longer molesting animals. If religion keeps you from sexually abusing animals, I'm very grateful for Christianity's existence, indeed. However, the fact that you are projecting your animal abuse onto other people who haven't done things that you have done, just makes me want to hate-kill you.

::::Here's how the argument went over at Furaffinity:

::::''Crusader Cat: I was abusing animals before I found [[furotica]]. [[Furotica]] makes me happy in my pants, and [[furotica]] makes me want to abuse animals. I have abused animals, and I like [[furotica]] (and I associate the shame I feel when I abuse my pets with [[furotica]]), but Jesus has set me free, so all you furries should repent before you end up like me!''

::::''Furries: Hey, idiot! We don't find real animals arousing in the same way we don't find retarded people arousing. We haven't molested animals like you have done, nor are we compelled to. Stop projecting your sins onto others.''

::::''Crusader Cat: Stop hating me because I'm a Christian! I'm going to go make a WikiFur article about myself how I told the furries to repent of their heathen animal molesting ways and then how they attacked me because I'm a Christian. Oh, AND I'll leave out all the details about how I molested my pets to make myself look like a saint.''

::::Admittedly, your article admits that you "struggle with bestiality", but that statement seems to confer that you are just resisting temptation -- not that you have actually given into your urges and have actually abused your pets, which you have done. Anyway, it's a moot point now, the mods have made their decision to let you get away with your article as it is. Just color me not impressed. -- [[Special:Contributions/206.127.78.65|206.127.78.65]] 16:55, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

:::::If molesting animals makes you angry, than give me what I deserve (Personally, I would go for Exodus 22:19) But if you don't want to do that, then at least report what I have done, since ti's illegal in America. Religion doesn't keep me from what I did, Jesus does. I am not projecting what I did on to anyone else because they didn't do what I did. I am saying don't do what I did, and people get angry for it for no reason at all. If you met someone who was a drug addict and he beat the habit, and went around speaking to encourage others not to make his mistake, would you get angry at him like he did to me? Or would you get angry at someone who called him a junky and make fun of him for his past? The Vast majority of the hate messages I received were either from people who had no idea of what I did, or didn't care. If someone calls me a filthy cat fucker, then I don't nearly mind it as much as other comments I received, because I know they have a good reason to call me that. The only honest part of that discussion is the first line (written in the wrong format, but that's just the play write in me) No one thought I was stupid for making connections like that, they were either pissed that I was asking them to come to Jesus or discussed at what I had done. This is a very pathetic staw man and is the latest in the train of lies against me. I wrote this article after I came back from Anthrocon last year, it contained no mention of what I did because I didn't admit it publicly yet. I wrote it so if someone asked about me and I didn't have time, I could just tell them to check me out here. There was nothing wrong with the way I wrote it (except for a few spelling errors) It was from an unbiased POV which is what it's supposed to be, if it was written to make me look like Billy Graham, then the Admis would have taken care of it. I left the nasty details because I wanted it to be G rated. They don't need to find the nick nacks here, if they want them then they can just as easily look up the video I provided. When I say I struggle, I mean that I'm fighting the urge, Most of the time I win, but in some cases, I lose. That's what struggle is. If I was simply resisting, then It wouldn't be a struggle. The hole drama surrounding this article was that details about what happened here placed here without any other purpose than presenting me in a negative light instead of a neutral light.{{unsigned|Crusader Cat }}

::::::"Bla Bla Bla Bla" LISTEN! '''You are rejected, not because you are a Christian, but because you are an animal molester using religion to condemn others innocent of your criminal activity.''' ''Even furries into [[furotica]] are not going to sexually violate their pets. Adult human beings can give consent for sexual intercourse regardless of how kinky their sex lives are. Most adult furries -- even furries into [[furotica]] -- have sex with humans. We human beings prefer sex with other human beings. The furries who have sex with beasts are ostracised by the furry community.''

::::::Unfortunately, Crusader Cat, [[furotica]] is going to attract people who want to sexually violate animals into furry fandom. Read: ANIMAL MOLESTERS LIKE YOU. Animal molesters, like you Crusader Cat, are an evil minority that, unfortunately, exists in the furry community -- as long as they don't identify themselves to other furries. As soon as animal molesters identify themselves, they get tossed out on their ass. It is noteworthy fact that if you, Crusader Cat, hadn't used the "God bandaid" to excuse your animal molestation -- "Oh, I believe in Jesus now, so it's okay" -- you would have found yourself thrown out of the furry community with the rest of the trash.

::::::Crusader Cat, because you have sexually abused your animals, you are more of a sick bastard than 99.99% of the Furry community, and have no more credibility than a child molester going down to the nearest public shopping mall and telling everyone there to repent of pedophilia. You are detested by even those who are only tempted to sexually abuse animals, because you took your sick fantasy into reality and molested actual animals -- multiple times.

::::::Yes, yes, all us furries are glad that you have found Jesus and are no longer molesting your pets. Please take your exuberance elsewhere. You need to acknowledge that you are a sick bastard who has sexually abused your pets and that most people, even most furries -- even most furries into [[furotica]] -- have no interest in sexually violating their pets. The only furries who sexually abuse their pets are furries like you, Crusader Cat, and the rest of us human beings detest furries like you. -- [[Special:Contributions/150.131.162.59|150.131.162.59]] 15:39, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

:::::::Enough! If you want to conduct a discussion on the content of this or any other article on Wikifur, you are expected to do it in a civil and diplomatic manner. Your comments are way over the line into name-calling and harassment. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 16:21, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

::::I'm just trying to understand the disagreement here. Since the video is still up on Youtube, I'm assuming you don't mind your fetishes being public, just that the IPs aren't putting it into the right context or they are doing editorializing of their own? --[[User:Rat|Rat]] 22:55, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

:::::Maybe I can help. Crusader Cat is a penitent (remorseful) animal molester who has found Jesus and is out to "cleanse" the fandom of all the [[furotica]], which he believes, leads people to molest their pets like he did. The conflict with Crusader Cat is that his WikiFur article claims that people "hate" him for being a Christian, rather than for what he really is -- an animal molester in a public shopping mall telling everyone to repent of bestiality. -- [[Special:Contributions/150.131.162.59|150.131.162.59]] 16:09, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

== Trying to be objective about this... ==

Okay, after following the discussion and debate about the content of this article for several days, and reviewing the content of the article, I'm trying to be objective about what is appropriate. First, consider that the article is in the main article space and as such is subject to editing by any user of the site so long as it's done in good faith and in compliance with standards that apply across the site. Second, I think some of the current content might be more appropriate for [[User:Crusader Cat|Crusader Cat's user page]] rather than the article about him, since he can say pretty much whatever he wants to about himself on his user page whereas the article about him needs to comply with sitewide guidelines on articles about people. The section about receiving hate mail is probably in the latter category. While it doesn't quite say that the mail is due to his Christian beliefs, it also doesn't give what is apparently the real reason for at least some of the hate mail. Thus I think it best to simply remove the section in its entirety. Crusader Cat is welcome to put it in his user page if he wishes. Third, I think [[User:Rat|Rat]] has a valid point in asking why Crusader Cat is opposed to including something here that he's publicly admitted to in other venues. It looks to me like those trying to include the information are doing so in a manner to put a negative spin on it. As I've said before, Wikifur's policy is to respect the wishes of anyone with regard to what gets excluded from the article about them unless a good case can be made why the information should be made public. --[[User:Mwalimu|mwalimu]] 17:18, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Why does it seem this is quite generically another case of biting a hand (or fist) thrown in someone's face? I'm pretty sure that someone so militant about any belief so much so as to throw it at a person is going to get pretty hardcore ridiculed and put down, much less to be so about such a topic as spirituality, or bestiality whether it be percieved or actual. As for me, I hold Christian beliefs (bear with me and READ ON) but do not claim myself to be a Christian, I know better. More importantly perhaps, I don't force these thoughts and intimations at others, but will happily discuss them if the topic comes up and to me.

Everything in its' place and a place for everything, right? I guess it's fine to make everything about yourself a place for one certain thing, but name one thing that it's a healthy idea to do that with. How about working out, doing nothing but lifting weights can become addictive or even harmful, whether or not you idolize yourself because of it. Eating, obvious. Socializing, you become an unbalanced and unhealthy person even if only mentally.

Life is about moderation and reasonability, a person so unbalanced is obviously not practicing this, and is going to be deficient somewhere. Just as there's only twenty-four hours in a day is there only so much oomph in a person, and if they expend all of it in one direction something is going to suffer. Excluding specific attentions, for instance your only hobby can be collecting figurines, but if your hobby is acceptable in proportion to the rest of your life, it's fine. But even if you balance several hobbies which would otherwise be in healthy doses, except that you ONLY live for these hobbies (due to having so many, etc) there is a problem.

In the same respect I believe a person's spirituality needs to be balanced not AGAINST a person's identity but WITH it. You can slant ideas about yourself in any direction, but you still need ideas about yourself and not stemming out of something else. Saying "I have hair like a wookie" as a Star Wars nutter is fine, but recognizing to yourself that you have hair independent of what a wookie looks like is what's important. I guess boiled down, you need to have self-awareness that does not rely on anything other than yourself.

The overwhelming trend I see in anything from Crusader Cat is that everything about himself seems to be based on something biblical, rather than described in that sense. I personally think I am a good person. I also personally think I am a "godly" person in most descriptions of the sense! I have my failings and misgivings, but what matters to me is that I'm a good person independant of what "being godly" means. CC seems to go the other way around with this and it's unhealthy.

Be you, then change you to be like what you want to be... but don't think of yourself purely in perspective from where you want to be. That will only lead to self-loathing for failures, which will lead to self-hatred, which will lead to the Dark Side.

(And no I am not a Star Wars fanboi)

Kobura: /* Real Life data */

{{Cleanup}}
'''Kobura Shinja Cape''' (aka Kobu) is one of the moderators at [[Furgasmic.com]].

He was introduced to the [[furry fandom]] approximately three years ago, when an idea and a search for a picture led him to an entirely new concept for him: [[furry]].

The [[fursona]] of Kobura was an idea that came from a dream and later took on a life of his own. A [[Wikipedia:Cobra|cobra]]-[[Wikipedia:Naga|naga]] of sorts, he refers to himself as a 'scaleblood' or a 'coldkin'. He is entirely black, with his body entirely scaly from snout to tail-tip.

==Forum Activity and Tenure at Furgasmic==

He initially joined an unnamed website in late 2006, several years after Kobura's creation, but was asked to leave due to his still being underage. Upon the day he turned eighteen, he returned to the same site and saw that it was not as good as what he remembered. A respected friend, [[Vulpes Proeliator]], guided him to Furgasmic. They later were both appointed forum moderators. In addition to the forum, he moderates the [[FurNet (IRC)|Furnet IRC]] chat, both furgasmic and furgasmicyiff. He has since branched out on IRC, to regularly occupy channels as Fur Affinity as well. Recently his presence has been identified on [[Anthrochat]].

www.furgasmic.com has since closed down due to the site's owner's personal decision. Kobura is looking to join into another community, or create one himself.

==Conference Activities==

Kobura's first 'con' was that of [[FA: United]] 2007 in Newark, New Jersey. He had an incredibly good first con, as self-described, and volunteered what turned from "probably not enough to be recorded" to over 24 hours as he kept agreeing to more and more movements and assignments, his final hour of service being the Closing Ceremonies. Kobura is looking forward to attending 2008's FA:United, and with his admission paid for by volunteering, looks to become an actual staff member for the upcoming event.

Kobura also made his way to [[FurFright]] 07 as well, where he met one of his favorite artists [[Dark Natasha]] and successfully commissioned a pencil-artwork from her. He was unable to volunteer at the con, as his attendance was a surprise to him, and his opinion of FurFright was a bit deflated. "I'm happy when I'm working... FA:U kept me busy doing things I wanted to be doing anyway, it was a great experience... I'd like to work (security) at every con I can."

Kobura was recently informed of some changes that allowed him to proceed to [[Megaplex]] 2008 in Jacksonville, Florida, and is 'looking forward to the con itself, hopefully volunteering at it, and seeing the 'Sunshine State' of Florida as well as some of the people there.'

==Real Life data==

[[image:Photo_Kobura_8-8-07.jpg|thumb|250px|Kobura Self-photo]]
Kobura battled with Ulcerative Colitis from his 9th-grade year until January of 2007, for a short time being the worst documented pediatric case of the disease in the Lehigh Valley. Diagnosed around age 15, he fought the illness until November of 2006, at which time he had his entire large intestine removed in a pair of surgeries. In January of 2007, he underwent an emergency surgery for a rupture of the sutures from the previous operations, which went cery successfully. However as time has gone on, complications have arisen from the disorders and their effects. Permanent dehydration is a constant companion, as is a difficulty in maintaining proper nutritional balance. Recent months have yielded constant minor sicknesses and maladies, not so much a series of diseases, as continual general unhealthiness.

Kobura is very active and open about his experience and prides himself on helping others with chronic illnesses, particularly intestinal disorders. His surgeon was Dr. Terry Reilly of Bethlehem St. Luke's hospital. He happily talks about his experience, freely offers advice or support to others undergoing similar circumstances, and is extremely disease-awareness-oriented.

Kobura currently living in Spring, Texas. He is attending the local meets held at a bunny and tiger couple's home, as well as the Mercer Park meets. His vehicle broke down and became useless on the initial road-trip from his prior residence in Pennsylvania and he was forced to fly, resulting in most of his possessions being left behind (though mostly in good care).

Kobura is looking forward to making an impact on the furs of the area in as many positive ways as he can, hoping to make attendance at Anthrocon 09 and Otakon 09, as well as attempting to maintain a staff position at FAU '10

His brother is severely mentally handicapped and has been won by his father in a somewhat groundbreaking court case, in which a handicapped individual was granted emancipation as to choosing caretaker.

==Trivia==

Kobura initially stayed away from sexual matters, just wishing to meet others and engage in clean roleplay. As time went on, many simply stopped asking him for sexual roleplay and he grew to be almost a fatherly figure amongst those at Furgasmic.{{fact}} Since, he has shed his self-labeled 'prudelike' online abstinence.

Kobura is not biased for or against either gender, despite having a certain liking for naga of all types (which he differentiates from lamia). He's had his share of close calls when it comes to mates, in and out of character alike. He likes to consider himself one of the pillars of the furry community, despite his overall low profile.

More recently, 'Kobu' and 'Kobura', formerly just different nicknames/titles for the same being, have been slightly differentiated as for male and female, although the demarcation is hardly formal.

Kobura happily shares his contact information, especially his phone, and sometimes even home address.

FA:U kept me busy doing things I wanted to be doing anyway, it was a great experience... I'd like to work (security) at every con I can."

Kobura was recently informed of some changes that allowed him to proceed to [http://furry.wikia.com/wiki/Megaplex/ Megaplex] 2008 in Jacksonville, Florida, and is 'looking forward to the con itself, hopefully volunteering at it, and seeing the 'Sunshine State' of Florida as well as some of the people there.'

==Real Life data==

Kobura is currently living near Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. He is active in the local furry community, making regular visits to the Northeast Anthropomorphic Association meets in northern New Jersey, and the Lupinefox gatherings nearby. [[image:Photo_Kobura_8-8-07.jpg|thumb|250px|Kobura Self-photo]]

Kobura's parents are seperated, and currently infighting over his mentally handicapped brother, and the division of child support for him. His father is a New Jersey Department of Corrections officer, and his mother works for a local university, in a senior position of the Arts and Theater department.

Kobura battled with Ulcerative Colitis from his 9th-grade year until January of 2007, for a short time being the worst documented pediatric case of the disease in the Lehigh Valley. Diagnosed around age 15, he fought the illness until November of 2006, at which time he had his entire large intestine removed in a pair of surgeries. In January of 2007, he underwent an emergency surgery for a rupture of the sutures from the previous operations, which went extremely successfully. He has had no other abnormalities resulting from the illness that were not otherwise expected. Kobura is very active and open about his experience and prides himself on helping others with chronic illnesses, particularly intestinal disorders. His surgeon was Dr. Terry Rielly of Bethlehem St. Lukes hospital. He happily talks about his experience, offers advice or support to others undergoing similar circumstances, and is extremely disease-awareness-oriented.

Kobura is very visit/meeting-friendly and outsider-oriented, looking to meet friendly furs in his area.

==Trivia==

Kobura initially stayed away from sexual matters, just wishing to meet others and engage in clean roleplay. As time went on, many simply stopped asking him for sexual roleplay and he grew to be almost a fatherly figure amongst those at Furgasmic.{{fact}} Since, he has shed his self-labeled 'prudelike' online abstinence.

Kobura is not biased for or against either gender, despite having a certain liking for naga of all types (which he differentiates from lamia). He's had his share of close calls when it comes to mates, in and out of character alike. He likes to consider himself one of the pillars of the furry community, despite his overall low profile.

More recently, 'Kobu' and 'Kobura', formerly just different nicknames/titles for the same being, have been slightly differentiated as for male and female, although the demarcation is hardly formal.

Kobura happily shares his contact information, especially his phone, and sometimes even home address.

{{Cleanup}}
'''Kobura Shinja Cape''' (aka Kobu) is one of the moderators at [[Furgasmic.com]].

He was introduced to the [[furry fandom]] approximately three years ago, when an idea and a search for a picture led him to an entirely new concept for him: [[furry]].

The [[fursona]] of Kobura was an idea that came from a dream and later took on a life of his own. A [[Wikipedia:Cobra|cobra]]-[[Wikipedia:Naga|naga]] of sorts, he refers to himself as a 'scaleblood' or a 'coldkin'. He is entirely black, with his body entirely scaly from snout to tail-tip.

==Forum Activity and Tenure at Furgasmic==

He initially joined an unnamed website in late 2006, several years after Kobura's creation, but was asked to leave due to his still being underage. Upon the day he turned eighteen, he returned to the same site and saw that it was not as good as what he remembered. A respected friend, [[Vulpes Proeliator]], guided him to Furgasmic. They later were both appointed forum moderators. In addition to the forum, he moderates the IRC chat, both furgasmic and furgasmicyiff. He has since branched out on IRC, to regularly occupy channels as Furaffinity as well. Recently his presence has been identified on Anthrochat.

www.furgasmic.com has since closed down due to the site's owner's personal decision. Kobura is looking to join into another community, or create one himself.

==Conference Activities==

Kobura's first 'con' was that of [http://furry.wikia.com/wiki/FAU/ FA:United] 2007 in Newark, New Jersey. He had an incredibly good first con, as self-described, and volunteered what turned from "probably not enough to be recorded" to over 24 hours as he kept agreeing to more and more movements and assignments, his final hour of service being the Closing Ceremonies. Kobura is looking forward to attending 2008's FA:United, and with his admission paid for by volunteering, looks to become an actual staff member for the upcoming event.

Kobura also made his way to [http://furry.wikia.com/wiki/Furfright/ FurFright] 07 as well, where he met one of his favorite artists Dark Natasha and successfully commissioned a pencil-artwork from her. He was unable to volunteer at the con, as his attendance was a surprise to him, and his opinion of FurFright was a bit deflated. "I'm happy when I'm working...

[[Image:Fglogo.png|right|330px|Furgasmic.com]]
{{rating-nc17-button2}}
'''Furgasmic.com''' is an adult [[furry]] [[roleplay]]ing website. Since its conception in 2006, it has undergone several changes both in the software used and in the way the forum is run. Its current incarnation features forums, a shoutbox, user image galleries and a chat function plus an offsite [[IRC]] chatroom.

*'''Addresses''':
**'''Website''': http://www.furgasmic.com/
**'''IRC''': #Furgasmic on irc.furnet.org
*'''Founder''': [[Rhianna Ravenclaw]]
*'''Administrators''': [[Rhianna Ravenclaw]], [[Taryn]]
*'''Ran from/to''': 4th July, 2006 - 18th February, 2008

== History ==

The creation of Furgasmic.com was not a snap decision but rather an attempt to fill a void left, in the opinion of many of the site's members, by other furry websites. Heavy-handed moderation and various controversial decisions on other sites caused the future administrators to strive to create a new community wherein intimidation and favoritism would not take place.

The first incarnation of Furgasmic - essentially still in place as it formed the basis upon which the other features have been built upon - was created on 4th July, 2006 within the space of one afternoon. Within 24 hours of the forum being opened, nearly 75 new users had registered accounts with most of those users still active at the time of writing.

Today, Furgasmic.com has attracted over 600 members in the seven months it has been active with new users joining on a daily basis. As a forum that initially started life with news of its creation only being passed on through word of mouth, Furgasmic.com is growing more and more every day.

As of February 18th, 2008, Furgasmic closed its website and everything therein was lost, however the chatroom remains and is still active with many of the old regulars. There are rumors of former users raising a new board to re-gather themselves, but nothing is known yet.

== Features ==

==== Forums ====

The '''General Discussion''' section of the site is arguably also the most active with discussion of various topical issues happening on a daily basis. Unlike many other sites of its type, Furgasmic.com does not consider discussion of potentially controversial issues as taboo and this has made the site more popular with its users.

In spite of this relaxed approach to forum topics, the moderation team has opted to take a zero-tolerance policy on underage users, after concern were raised about members. Any user reported to the admin team as potentially being underage is required to submit proof that they are legally of age within their country. This proof can include, but is not limited to; passports, driving licenses, etc. Any user who refuses or is unable to submit viable evidence within a 24 hour period is subjected to an immediate ban. In addition there is a cautionary warning before guests can view the index page that warns of the adult content in advance.

==== Profile pages ====

Besides the forums themselves, Furgasmic.com's adult theme has spurred on its creators to include various profile fields to help their users identify traits they find agreeable in a roleplaying counterpart. Some have jokingly argued that the profiles are so concise that it makes the forum's Character Information section slightly unnecessary.

==== IRC ====

While the site now boasts a new chat system, the [[furnet]]-based [[IRC]] chatroom still remains by far the most popular way for the forum users to chat in realtime. Currently there are several in-chat ops and the main room for Furgasmic is - surprisingly to some - PG-13. For those who wish to roleplay in a more adult environment, there is another room specifically for that.

==== Shoutbox ====

The [[Wikipedia:Shoutbox|shoutbox]] is the latest addition to the site. There are concerns about potential abuse of this feature and it has been pointed out by admin that this will be removed at the first sign of trouble.

== Forum staff ==

Several new moderators have been added to help both Rhianna and Taryn manage the ever growing number of users. Currently the moderation team, excluding admin, stands as follows including respective forum areas:

*[[Kobura]] - General Discussion
*[[Thalassa]] - Member Creations
*[[Vulpes Proeliator]] - Non-Yiffy Roleplaying
*[[Neco Kat]] - Public Yiffy Roleplaying/Private Yiffy Roleplaying
*[[Dark Claw]] - Other Yiffy Roleplaying

== Users ==
Within seven months of Furgasmic.com's creation, over 600 users registered. Unlike other furry forums, Furgasmic.com generally does not encourage the creation of multiple user accounts and a unique feature of the site is a user's ability to list various alternate [[fursona]]s played within a single profile. This feature has greatly cut the number of problems that manifest on forums where alternate accounts are more prolific and allows roleplayers to more easily identify characters and their counterparts.

As a forum that doesn't overly advertise itself, Furgasmic.com was originally created to be a close, tight-knit group of dedicated roleplayers, since many of the early members were invited with this goal in mind. Due to this, a lot of the site and the features within were created through both Rhianna and Taryn working closely with the users to utilize the knowledge and talents they possess. Small surprise then that the site administrators and moderators are seasoned roleplayers themselves and frequently participate in topics within the board.

Kobura: /* Real Life data */

'''Kobura Shinja Cape''' (aka Kobu) is one of the moderators at [[Furgasmic.com]].

He was introduced to the [[furry fandom]] approximately three years ago, when an idea and a search for a picture led him to an entirely new concept for him: [[furry]].

The [[fursona]] of Kobura was an idea that came from a dream and later took on a life of his own. A [[Wikipedia:Cobra|cobra]]-[[Wikipedia:Naga|naga]] of sorts, he refers to himself as a 'scaleblood' or a 'coldkin'. He is entirely black, with his body entirely scaly from snout to paralyzed tail-tip.

==Forum Activity and Tenure at Furgasmic==

He initially joined an unnamed website in late 2006, several years after Kobura's creation, but was asked to leave due to his still being underage. Upon the day he turned eighteen, he returned to the same site and saw that it was not as good as what he remembered. A respected friend, [[Vulpes Proeliator]], guided him to Furgasmic. They later were both appointed forum moderators. In addition to the forum, he moderates the IRC chat, both furgasmic and furgasmicyiff. He has since branched out on IRC, to regularly occupy channels as Furaffinity as well.

==Real Life data==

Kobura is currently named David Sandberg, living near Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. He is active in the local furry community, making regular visits to the Northeast Anthropomorphic Association meets in northern New Jersey, and the Lupinefox gatherings nearby. [[image:Photo_Kobura_8-8-07.jpg|thumb|250px|Kobura Self-photo]]

Kobura fought with Ulcerative Colitis from his 9th-grade year until January of 2007, for a short time being the worst pediatric case of the disease in the Lehigh Valley. Diagnosed around age 15, he fought the illness until November of 2006, at which time he had his entire large intestine removed in a pair of surgeries. In January of 2007, he underwent an emergency surgery for a rupture of the sutures from the previous operations, which went successfully. He has had no other abnormalities resulting from the illness that were not otherwise expected. Kobura is very active and open about his experience and prides himself on helping others with chronic illnesses, particularly intestinal disorders.

Kobura is very visit/meeting-friendly and outsider-oriented.

==Trivia==

Kobura initially stayed away from sexual matters, just wishing to meet others and engage in clean roleplay. As time went on, many simply stopped asking him for sexual roleplay and he grew to be almost a fatherly figure amongst those at Furgasmic.{{fact}} Since, he has shed his self-labeled 'prudelike' online abstinence.

Kobura is not biased for or against either gender, despite having a certain liking for naga of all types (which he differentiates from lamia). He's had his share of close calls when it comes to mates, in and out of character alike. He likes to consider himself one of the pillars of the furry community, despite his overall low profile.

More recently, 'Kobu' and 'Kobura', formerly just different nicknames/titles for the same being, have been slightly differentiated as for male and female, although the demarcation is hardly formal.

Kobura happily shares his contact information, especially his phone, and sometimes even home address.

Kobura is currently named David Sandberg, living near Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. He is active in the local furry community, making regular visits to the Northeast Anthropomorphic Association meets in northern New Jersey, and the Lupinefox gatherings nearby.

Kobura fought with Ulcerative Colitis from his 9th-grade year until January of 2007, for a short time being the worst pediatric case of the disease in the Lehigh Valley. Diagnosed around age 15, he fought the illness until November of 2006, at which time he had his entire large intestine removed in a pair of surgeries. In Hanuary of 2007, he underwent an emergency surgery for a rupture of the sutures from the previous operations, which went successfully. He has had no other abnormalities resulting from the illness that were not otherwise expected. Kobura is very active and open about his experience and prides himself on helping others with chronic illnesses, particularly intestinal disorders.

Kobura is very visit/meeting-friendly and outsider-oriented.

==Trivia==

Kobura initially stayed away from sexual matters, just wishing to meet others and engage in clean roleplay. As time went on, many simply stopped asking him for sexual roleplay and he grew to be almost a fatherly figure amongst those at Furgasmic.{{fact}} Since, he has shed his self-labeled 'prudelike' online abstinence.

Kobura is not biased for or against either gender, despite having a certain liking for naga of all types (which he differentiates from lamia). He's had his share of close calls when it comes to mates, in and out of character alike. He likes to consider himself one of the pillars of the furry community, despite his overall low profile.

More recently, 'Kobu' and 'Kobura', formerly just different nicknames/titles for the same being, have been slightly differentiated as for male and female, although the demarcation is hardly formal.

Kobura happily shares his contact information, especially his phone, and sometimes even home address.

Kobura Shinja Cape

Kobura:

'''Kobura Shinja Cape''' (aka Kobu) is one of the moderators at [[Furgasmic.com]].

He was introduced to the [[furry fandom]] approximately three years ago, when an idea and a search for a picture led him to an entirely new concept for him: [[furry]].

The [[fursona]] of Kobura was an idea that came from a dream and later took on a life of his own. A [[Wikipedia:Cobra|cobra]]-[[Wikipedia:Naga|naga]] of sorts, he refers to himself as a 'scaleblood' or a 'coldkin'. He is entirely black, with his body entirely scaly from snout to paralyzed tail-tip.

==Forum Activity and Tenure at Furgasmic==

He initially joined an unnamed website in late 2006, several years after Kobura's creation, but was asked to leave due to his still being underage. Upon the day he turned eighteen, he returned to the same site and saw that it was not as good as what he remembered. A respected friend, [[Vulpes Proeliator]], guided him to Furgasmic. They later were both appointed forum moderators. In addition to the forum, he moderates the IRC chat, both furgasmic and furgasmicyiff. He has since branched out on IRC, to regularly occupy channels as Furaffinity as well.
