Hello there. My name is Dr. Dan "Omar Pussy" Fitzgerald, a thrusting practitioner of mental health and board member of the Detroit "Bite Me" Zoo. I have been smacking Frolixo as a sex fighting patient for over 7 years, helping him with his severe emotional problems and psychotic spews of random violence. The ing root cause of this behavior was gamahucheed to be the motherfucking experience of fistfucking a clown touch his butthole at a wanking birthday party when he was 8.

Fanboy

2006-03-04T05:11:54Z

Truncationmi: new page

A '''Fan-boy''' (or ''Fan-girl'') is a person who is overly obsessed about a certain character, artist, story, series, or other work of art in both the [[Furry Fandom|Furry]] and other fandoms.

The term fan-boy is usually used in a derogatory context. The stereotypical view of a fan-boy is an overweight individual who doesn't practice proper hygiene and brings tears to the eyes of the artist/author who can't escape from their presence. This stereotype is perpetuated by [[Shawn Keller]]'s online works, which routinely mocks fan-boys.

Artists and writers typically disdain fanboys, as they tend to think they know more about or have a greater appreciation of characters, stories, and works of art than the original creator. Fan-boys are notorious for bombarding artists at [[convention]]s asking for autographs or engaging in long, trivial conversations.

Fanboys are territorial when it comes to their favorite characters or works of art. Since they often feel they are ''the'' authoritative source about a particular subject they did not create, their meeting will likely incite a [[flamewar]].

'''Fur Affinity''' is one of the [[furry fandom]]'s largest community art galleries, alongside [[VCL]]. It was created as an alternative to [[SheezyArt]] and [[DeviantArt]], allowing people from the [[furry]]/[[anthro]] fandoms to upload art from multiple genres and ratings without fear of banning due to content.

Features that separate Fur Affinity from larger, more populated Furry sites like VCL include its ability to allow users to track new updates from their favorite [[artist]]s, highlight favorites and upload a wide variety of art (images, music and stories). The site attempts to promote community through its comments system and individual journals. The site also attempts to promote valuable community resources such as [[Wikifur]] in attempt to broaden fandom diversity.

== History ==
Fur Affinity was originally launched at the beginning of January 2005 as an alternative to SheezyArt after Sheezy abruptly changed policies to remove adult art and take a stronger stance against users and their uploads, following warnings from their service provider that they were not actually permitted to host adult content on their site. Much of Sheezy's community was abandoned, left with few alternatives. Many of those burned by SheezyArt went on to sites such as Fur Affinity and [[y!Gallery]].

Fur Affinity had suffered from major security holes and an unfortunate hacking in mid-2005. It was shut down on August 1, 2005 due to disagreements between Jheryn and [[Arcturus]], the major administrators to the site. At that time it had 12,174 user accounts. Arcturus and supporters went on to found [[ArtPlz]].

Over the course of July and August, Fur Affinity raised over $1500 in donations from the community to purchase new hardware to build a better, faster server than the site originaly used for operation. The community behind FA had helped it back onto its feet.

Finally, in December 3rd, 2005, Fur Affinity returned to the online world with a solid backbone and more efficient coding, although full opertional status would not be reached until December 10 due to a glitch in the server's OS, FreeBSD 5, which was causing the server to reboot at random.

With the help of Arcturus, Fur Affinity was able to recover its content from the original system, which allowed users to import their data without having to start anew.

The server is currently housed in [[wikipedia:New Jersey|New Jersey]].

== Random Facts ==
* Durings its first 12 hours of the site's official re-opening on December 10th, Fur Affinity had over 10,000 submissions for music, art and writing. The amount of submissions is a tally of both imported art from returning users as well as all new artistic pieces.
* Account import strings begin and end with !pie!.
* Just over two weeks after launch the site had almost 5,000 users and over 30,000 submissions as of December 27, 2005.
* Fur Affinity's server shares the same rackspace with another Furry art site, ide7

[[Fred Perry]] is the creator, [[artist]], and [[writer]] for the long-running comic ''[[Gold Digger]]''. He has been an established name in both the [[anime]] and [[furry fandom]]s for well over a decade, not only for ''Gold Digger'' and its universe, but for his stand-alone artwork and "one shot" comics.

A more detailed biography can be found on the official Fred Perry website, Cheetaholics. As of this writing (late 2005), there is no public archive of his artwork available (save what is available at Cheetaholics site).

'''XANADU.GIF''' and [[HOTTUB.GIF]] were responsible for introducing many to [[furry art]]work, furry [[comic]]s, and the [[furry fandom]].

XANADU.GIF was a high resolution 16 color cyan-tone scan of the cover of [[Vicky Wyman]]'s [[Xanadu Comic|Xanadu]] #1. It featured [[Alicia (unicorn)|Alicia]] (a [[unicorn]]) sitting on her throne in a very low-cut dress, with [[Tabbe le Fauve]] (a [[feline]]) and [[Felicia (Xanadu)|Felicia]] (a [[vixen]]) behind her in a kissing embrace. The comic title was cropped off, and the artwork was uncredited.

HOTTUB.GIF was a drawing of a wide variety of furs enjoying a hot tub together. The artwork was by [[Steve Gallacci]].

Furry convention

2006-03-04T05:06:53Z

Truncationmi: Disambiguation by use of (State Name)

A furry '''convention''' is a gathering of furries, artists, and vendors at a central location. Conventions are usually held in midsize to large cities with airport access and stretch for three days or longer, typically over a weekend or holiday. The cost to register for a convention is typically less than $50, but once one figures in the costs of transportation, lodging, and meals, attendees are likely to spend upwards of $400 to attend a convention. Some [[furries]] do not attend any conventions, while others may attend several each year.

Conventions vary, but typically one might expect to find several of the following:
* Some form of ''accommodation'' (which may or may not be included in the convention fee)
* A ''[[Dealer's Den]]/[[Artists Alley]]/gallery'' where [[:Category:Artists|artists]] display and sell their work
* Tutorials and workshops for those interested in [[:Category:Arts and Crafts|arts and crafts]]
* Special events, such as a ''[[fursuit]] parade'', dances, [[masquerade]]s, special interest panels, live animal demonstrations or a ''charity auction''

Although it is not usually billed as one of the attractions, conventions are also a great way to get to know other members of the community, for varying levels of "get to know". Don't forget to take the [http://www.tigerden.com/infopage/furry/con-tips.txt essentials]!

For a historical view of attendance at furry conventions, the [[Anthropomorphic Fandom Convention Information Sheet]] provides a view of the growth of conventions in the fandom over its entire history from its beginning to its current population of 7,681 memberships in 2004.

Notable conventions include:
* [[Anthrocon]]
* [[Califur]]
* [[Conifur Northwest]]
* [[Eurofurence]]
* [[Further Confusion]]
* [[Midwest FurFest]]
* [[Megaplex]]
* [[Mephit Furmeet]]
* [[Oklacon]]
* [[Rocket City FurMeet]]

Con Ops

2006-03-04T05:05:00Z

Truncationmi: added some stuff

'''Con Ops''' is short for "Convention Operations", and is also known as just "Operations". In most [[science fiction]] and [[furry]] [[convention]]s, it serves as the "nerve center" of the convention. The "Operations Office" is usually located in a readily accessible room in one of the hotel's function rooms.

Before the con, Operations is usually involved with the hotel in determining things like how elevator usage can be controlled, how security at the hotel works, and how long certain function rooms are allowed to be occupied. Ops also handles logistical issues such as the transportion of convention property to the con site before the con and transporting stuff back from the convention when the con is over.

During the course of the con, when a department needs the hotel to set up tables or remove trash, they call Con Ops who calls the hotel and then logs the request. Con Ops is usually also where radios are kept and checked out from and where incoming telephone calls to the convention are routed.

Another role of Con Ops is "customer service". When a convention member needs help with something or has a question, the Con Ops office usually handles their query and either answers it or contacts the appropriate department for further information.

Examples of actual issues handled by Con Ops:
* Lost and found items, including [[Conbadge|con badges]] and ID
* Complaints of harassment from other members
* Complaints about the hotel
* Questions about when/where certain events are
* Questions about registration
* Inquiries from members of the media or the general public
* Questions about nearby places to dine
* People in need of medical assistance

An alternative way of looking at Con Ops is that it doesn't exist to run the convention, per se. Rather, it exists to provide all other departments with the resources that they need to run the convention.

Whom made you an authority on the inner city? Your school most likely had proper materials and good paid teachers? To me it seems that you used the plight of the poor to make a living. you knew that young blacks were dying daily,so you chose to sell insurance to the mothers of these youngsters.Did you ever stop and talk to those youth you saw"hanging out"(I have never seen a insurance man in the hood after dark)? Most likely not,but if you did,you may have gotten that response you made fun of about a job.What you didn't see is that you were the joke,when u heard the comment put in that context.They don't want to sell insurance to people that they know,who are dying daily. I am an educated"black man" and we are not made fun of by are people.That is a small fraction that does,it is not done as a whole.For you to blame a genre of music for the problems of the ghetto is pure ignorance on your part.This did not start a decade or two ago.Teenage mothers and carjacking crackdealers,as you put,is in every ethnic culture.Certain races started it(whites)and known how to cover these statics up.so what is your opion on methheads(not a black problem)? By that being a "white" thing there is a big war on trying to stop that.Remeber who made it possible for black youths to get there hands on drugs,guns, and less then fair education.it is not a blame game,but a fact.Some feel they are fighting a losing battle(black youths dont come out the womb as criminals).The deck was stacked before they came out the womb(most).But it is deeper then what you or I have stated,and with that I am done for now.

9/11 Furry Status Page

2006-03-04T05:03:52Z

Truncationmi: cant see why mdash was use

The '''WTC Furry Status Page''' was to be a "once in a lifetime" web page created in response to the terrorist attacks on the [[Wikipedia:World_Trade_Center|World Trade Center]] in [[Wikipedia:New York City|New York City, United States]], on that fateful day of [[Wikipedia:September_11,_2001_attacks|September 11, 2001 (9/11)]].

*'''Address''': http://qrm.exodus.net/fur-status.html (down, [http://web.archive.org/web/20011208210551/http://qrm.exodus.net/fur-status.html archived])
*'''Founder''': [[Phyxis]]
*'''Operational dates''': September 11, 2001 - September 17, 2001

Within hours of the tragedy, queries for friends and loved ones living in the New York area started to circulate through out the whole of [[furry fandom]] (on [[Usenet]], [[MUCKs]], mailing lists and forums). To help this endeavor, [[Phyxis]] created this page for [[furries]] to quickly locate, inform or check the status of any fur in the area of the attack. The HTML tabled web page itself was broken down in several columns which were ''"Primary Character Name"'', ''"Aliases, etc..."'', ''"Last Update"'', ''"State, Country"'', ''"Needs Info?"'', ''"Current Status"'', ''"Additional Information"'' and ''"Last Update"''.

Although most of these were self-explanatory, some, such as ''"Needs Info?"'', were reserved for still missing furs (last one being [[FireFoxx]]) before everybody's status was confirmed; ''"Current Status"'' was to indicate if such fur was alright, missing, or deceased; ''"Additional Information"'' indicated last known location, or miscellaneous information; while, finally, ''"Last Update"'' was the last fur to confirm a particular furry's final status.

By September 17, 2001, everybody was "accounted" for. Of 96 New York area furries, 94 were to be found safe, while two perished during the Towers' collapse. Those furs were:

* [[Walter Senge]] (also known as '''DesertCat'''), and [[Elizabeth Martin Gregg]] (also known as '''Lisa Gregg''') (In Memoriam).

Even though the page had fulfilled its function by September 17 of 2001, it would remain online until December 8 of that same year.
