may i ask what the point of this is supposed to be about? i mean, i get the picture. the only thing is that people are going to believe what they want to know matter what people say. it's a scientic fact. i believe you and everything and i know that all you are trying to do is let people know the truth, but that isnt going to make any difference.
i dont mean to offend you or anyone else from this post. i am just stating my opinion.

Because some of us don't like to see misinformation spread about our hobby.  It's easier to explain furry fandom to people when you don't have to spend half your time tunneling through their mistaken assumptions about it.
Of course misrepresentation hasn't been limited to furry fandom, either. For example, folks were blaming Dungeons & Dragons for teen suicide back in the 1980s. People are afraid of things they don't understand.
Keeping quiet and allowing misinformation to go unchallenged only allows ignorance to spread.

And video games after that!

Always were, and always will. I know only two (civilized, anyway!) cures: Humor and Education.
The parody (I dont remember which comedy group made it) of D&D was quite effective in defusing anger directed at the gamers.
DarkFox has been effective in changing the direction of this CSI episode by working with the writers. I read one of his posts in another group, in which he said the filming has been completed, that it went rather well ("At worst, we may end up looking a little silly"), and the official headline for the episode no longer has the "They dress up for sex" line that started everything.
Education worked! Big thanks to DF and the SoCal Furries (who will be in the show)!

Hey. Check it out. I first heard about furries from... okay, I forget where, but I had this awsome idea to go to AnthroCon and laugh at them, because it would be cool (hey, I'm 16. give me a break!). So I get there, and there's just tons of nerds wearing tails, and it was just like... going to school, and realizing there were no teachers around, and being able to flip out on anyone. So I run around and laugh at these dudes and shout "I'M THE ONLY SANE PERSON HERE! YOU'RE ALL CRAZY!" etc., and it was great. Then I got drunk (seen here: www.furnation.com/fla/tanked.zip) and went REALLY nuts. Well, the day ended for me when I shouted "I CAN JUMP HIGHER THAN YOU, B****!" to a Kangaroo and landed on my face. That's when the CEO of the con, Dr. Conway aka Kagemushi, walks up to me, grabs me by the shoulders, and starts hauling me off while radioing for security. Oh crap. So I break out of his grip and run. All the way back to the bus stop. That was possibly the most fun day of my sad little life. I am so going back next year. But now I'm feeling kinda bad about what I did, so I just wanna apologize to everyfur out there, and hope that this episode doesn't make it any harder for you. Peace out, yo.
Bonjour, ya'll! |

BD: Thanks for the reply about the curiously colored cluckers! I suspected an inside joke, because that is true for many closing `quotations'.
I dont know how it works in England, but here, the name of your school might be the source of some jokes too. Near here is the town of Horse Heads. Out west is one called Truth Or Consequences! Joke bait? Yes!
Tiger: Many agree (YOURE ALL CRAZY!!), but it is FUN! I've never been to AC, but am considering it. If I get there, I'll be looking for an apologetic TIGER!

OK, CSIFiles finally bailed, and gave me all the gossip entirely possible about the episode fur and loathing, i copied the whole article, read this, and you should know all the details about this episode!
If you think "Slaves of Las Vegas" had some of the weirdest sexual situations on primetime television, you ain't seen nothing yet. In "Fur and Loathing", CSI: Crime Scene Investigation enters the world of "furries" and "plushies", people who have sex disguised as animals.
It all starts when a man called Bob Pitt is found dead at the side of a road dressed in a raccoon costume, according to CSI Files sources. Bob's somewhat unusual get-up leads Grissom and Catherine to this year's "Fur Con", an annual convention in which ordinary people put their lives as "skins" on hold to dress up as furry creatures. Having extracted blue fur from the vomit found near Bob's body, the CSIs are on the lookout for any furries who might be sporting a blue costume.
Grissom, in full scientist mode, thinks "Fur Con" is fascinating, but Catherine finds the whole experience too weird for words. It isn't long before they find a potential suspect, Miss Kitty, who is spotted slinking down the catwalk of the furry fashion show in her neon blue costume. Kitty refuses to take off her mask at the convention, so she's hauled back to the police department for questioning.
Fed up with interrogating a pussy cat, Captain Brass orders Miss Kitty — who likes to be known as Sexy — to take off her mask. But when the deputy does so, a quiet-spoken, middle-aged man named Bud Deaver is revealed. Rather embarrassed and withdrawn without the support of his feline alter ego, Bud says he and Bob Pitt (known in the furry world as Rocky Raccoon) were "skritching", or rubbing their faces up and down each other's fur.
But when Grissom finds Bob Pitt's semen on the Miss Kitty costume, Bud has to confess what really happened when the furries got intimate. And what goes on at those conventions has to be seen to be believed...
Please note that these plot details have not yet been confirmed by CBS, Bruckheimer films or Alliance Atlantis and until such time you should treat this information as you would any other rumour. Also, please be aware that these details come from an early draft of the script, and elements may change before the episode goes to air.

Thanks BD! I dont understand where the Fur and Loathing info you quoted came from. CSI Files? Is that another site, or a part of this one? Do you think it would be OK if I copy it to a furry discussion group? Naturally I would give you credit for finding the information, and point out the disclaimer at the end.
You have a bad on-line reputation? Hard to believe from what I've seen here! (Of course, I havent heard the donut joke. No!- I'm not asking- lets keep this a `family show'!)

The donut jokes not at all rude, its just the kind of joke where you had to be there to get it if you know what I mean! And as for the bad online rep, well I dunno if you'd notied, but there's a bit of a competition going on to see who could get the most posts! That's got something to do with it! I'm v v v competitive! and yeah, back to the info, www.csifiles.com they wait a while for the info, but then they give you LOADS!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the csifiles.com url, BD. I'll check it out!
I had noticed you had reached `4-star General', but because this is the only topic I have followed, I didnt know there was a posting competition. Go for it! Nothing wrong with clean and fair fun!

neva mind, ur british too? great country! By chance is there a reason why you're called loganberry? Coz there's a certain CSI episode called the Finger, and the main chracter in it is called Roy Logan, there some sort of connection, or coincidence?

Yup - I live in Worcestershire. As for the name, it's got no CSI connection - it just turned up in my head one day.  But it fits quite well with the way that buck rabbits are usually named in Watership Down.
