In previous post I mentioned I saw a fursuiter who had a confederate on the back of their fursuit.
Since then I heard a couple of rumors but none of which made sense. For example if the suit was attacked it would of been the talk of the con.
But in a furmeet I attended last night, someone claimed they really knew what happened. Frankly it makes a lot more sense than the other nonsense I heard.
As I previously stated there was someone standing next to me at the fursuit parade telling me this fursuiter usually heads to the start of a parade or event then takes their fursuit off.
There was even a post on Facebook about this matter
Magnus Daridian is the guy’s name. He wore the Lemonade Coyote ripoff to AC14 and upset and confused a lot of people. Made Fur You didn’t know or give permission for it, nor did Tim/Lemonade’s family or the friend who owns the rights to the character now. It’s clear copyright infringement to begin with. It made a lot of people who didn’t personally know Tim think he was still alive and his death was a hoax, and it really devastated his friends and family. (Imagine seeing the beloved character of your dear friend who passed walking around at a con; at first it feels like it was all a bad dream and everything is okay because there he is, and then the weight of reality comes crashing down on you just moments after, and you have to see some jerk who never even knew Tim pretending to be him. Imagine just how incredibly painful that would be. How much of a stab to the heart it was for his friends, his partner, his family. Magnus claimed it was done out of sentiment and to “let people get that chance to say goodbye to the character”, but he never knew Tim, he never interacted with him, and he never even attempted to contact any of Tims family or M4Y for permission.)
You can find evidence of this on most social media, and an admission of guilt and halfassed apology journal and I believe pictures on his FA (magnusdaridian).
Well anyway what I heard was this, they were warned if they wore the fursuit again during the con they would be banned, and advised not to bring that fursuit again to MFF.
