RE: Admin Feedback Thread - Zyliath - 04-10-2016
Ehh...Never wanted to poke my nose inside here, but looks like I'm too late to refrain:
I give a point: Furries don't belong to Disco. Okay, we all happy? Good. They have been banned my Admin Garrett Jax, so bye to furry fandom.
Another point, off the bat: what if it isn't actually a furry, but (like in Tikram's case) a furry-designed android with a silicon memory chip in it.
Everyone will come out with the ususal furry bull. And that is where everyone is absolutely wrong.
Just because it resembles a furry in shape, it doesn't specifically mean it is related to furry fandom.
Now, Tikram (and Toris with him) were banned for 'Furry rule violation'. To assure everyone, I did read the sanction and furry rule thread.
Sorry for Garrett Jax and the whole Admin Team, but Android Furry-shaped beings weren't mentioned from what I read.
If I am wrong (which it could possibly be), let me understand the decision behind all this fuss. Really.
Show me the point in all this.
~SirDoge
P.S: Also, don't come up with the usual anti-furry bull, as it is useless and not pertinent to my post. Refrain from posting senseless things below. Thanks.

I have a fruit. It's shaped like a banana, has the same colour as a banana and even tastes like a banana. But I assure you, it's not a banana!
RE: Admin Feedback Thread - Zyliath - 04-10-2016
Did you read my P.S., Lyth?
You have picked the wrong point of view.
Now, some clearance:
1- That banana example of yours is dull. Shame on you.
2- I said "IF it looks like a furry, it doesn't mean it is one." With this I meant -> If I make a humanoid horse-shaped android body where I put a silicon memory card in it, do you consider it still a furry/pony/brony?
I don't. Because the origin isn't a furry, but it is an android.
Don't like the body design? I don't care. You don't need to interact with me forcefully.
Heck, don't let me write down bad things here, or I'll surely get slapped.

RE: Admin Feedback Thread - Xenon - 04-10-2016
Another feedback from me to admins, in one phrase!
Thank you for the new moves about core 1 bases and RP - and the ooRP character names etc..
It help and should have been done from a long time ago, but later better than never
thx

The announcement mentioned furries in a general context, which would mean "anything possibly furry you can think of", and in a universe where the very idea behind furries doesn't exist, an "android furry-shaped being" wouldn't either.
For the sake of clarification:

My banana example is sound because it is a commentary on the belief that just because you say x isn't y, it doesn't mean it's not y. I.e if I tried to prove to people that a banana wasn't a banana, they'd think I was a fool.
Unless you can provide legitimate scientific grounds that would justify why giving it a humanoid horse-shaped body would be a good idea without it blatantly coming across as an expression of furry fandom, then I'd still be inclined to believe it's a furry character.
Toris definitely knew what he was doing, which was trying to exploit a loophole in the rules, and wanted to express his furry RP through that loophole. It'd be like me running Nazi-related words through google translate and then posting flipped associated imagery onto the forums as a story; because at a glance, although it doesn't look like Nazism, it doesn't mean I'm not trying to express Nazism.

Aaaaah. I see. Is it like how in Kirkman's the Walking Dead Zombies don't actually exist and the concept itself was never created? (FYI for the less informed literally Zombies or any Zombie related pop-culture never happened in the Walking Dead universe. It's why they call them 'Walkers' instead of Zombies).
RE: Admin Feedback Thread - E X O D I T E - 04-10-2016
So no more insane men in furry suits?
Does this mean that the Caw Caw Condor has to be shelved forever?

There goes my nomad Akurra projecting himself as a black and purple dragon of doom to psych people out when he's mind raping them.
