"We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
'Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds...'
I suppose we all thought that one way or another."
- J. Robert Oppenheimer

Actually I do believe it is entirely relevant.
And what, because on the old forum I shared my photobucket account on my art thread? That is how you guys found the stuff to vandalize, after all. Besides back then I really didn't consider myself furry, I just called it a mascot. So that is in fact different, even though I know you're going to deny it.
Call it want you want, We knew it was corruption. Yet ultimately, it was I who set the purging into motion. And You were one of the many "Mascots" Deemed Unclean.
Explain Fera then, who for ages used various fox avatars on chatboxes and forums.
At least you are finally admitting to your own corruption though.

So I started drawing myself as a dog instead
Stopped reading after that. lol
Allow me to explain. I grew up inspired by Walt Disney, he was my idol and hero for a long long time. So naturally, I mimicked the art in the movies. It had absolutely nothing to do with being furry, especially consider the fact that I didn't even know what furries were until few years ago. I didn't like the princesses so naturally that was something I avoided. So another words Goofy, Pluto, Simba, the 101 dalmatians, etc.
To this day I am still inspired by all that, which is why in a year I will be transferring to the Art Institute and major in Media Arts & Animation. So while I'm probably gonna look more into the film editing aspect of Media Arts, it was still my childhood passion that got me to where I am today.
