Furry Writers Guild Forum: Final Judgement
I should of titled this The 2nd Biggest Mistake of my Entire Life.
As I reported earlier I joined the Furry Writers Guild Forum, mainly because of a couple of friends recommended it. One is now no longer my friend, so you see how that went.
Although The Furry Writers Guild Forum is not a bad forum, it’s admin is quite friendly. But some of it’s members were so bad I almost quit this blog of mine.
After being there a while, I decided to get to know more of them. But it only seemed like other newbies would have anything to do with me. Those who had been there a while simply avoided anything I had to say, but when I asked about Rainfurrest 2015. That was when things started to go bad, I was insulted, my post ridiculed, I was even told it was even wrong to ask anything about the fur con that killed the fandom in the NW. A couple even said I should be punished for asking such a question.
From then on it got worse, I checked out their Chat Room. Like the forum, few would talk to me. That is when I learned of the cliches, also called discussion groups. Unless you were apart of one, no one would have anything to do with you. I did not assume that, I was actually told that…directly. It was repeated the 2 other times I tried to use their chat…and I did try to join one. Oh boy the shit hit the fan. There was a few who ripped up my blog, tearing at what they saw was a constant series of repeating the same mistakes repeated over and over again.
I been online for roughly 10 years, I have shared possibly 1000s of links. But with some members, it isn’t allowed. I found out they could kick you out if you shared a link of a fellow member…without asking 1st.
I think that is crazy too.
But what really did it for me, and this really did expose the darker side of Furry Writers Guild Forum. Was something I have done countless times in the past and that was to repost an article I found on Rainfurrest. HUGE MISTAKE, I was ripped apart, threatened with physical harm, then hit with 11 Twitter Rants, 1 comment posted here and a email, all demanding I take down the article. Besides that is when I got spam attacked. Admittingly only for 12 hours. But someone made an effort to directly attack me. Over 1800 alone on this blog. 24 on the Greymuzzle group I Admin, including several hate messages supposedly quoted by me. Thankfully the other members knew it was spam. But after finding out the one who wrote that article was also a member of that forum and the one helping me with reviews turned out to be a self appointed member of the copyright police. Who during a session with him on Facebook kept on insisting for that one mistake I was going to jail. They don’t even do that with small time movie pirates, why would I be the exception. He then sledgehammered of how this blog is run. I agree I should be more careful with off site posts, because I do not want this repeated. It’s not like I am going to stop re-posting interesting articles all together, I just decided to leave the article on whatever site it can be found. What you will see here will for a description, comment and a link by me.
Also worth mentioning. I don’t think I am going to be apart of Furries Among Us 2 project. Not that I am removing myself from the project. But given what happened with someone who also happened to be both the author and publisher of that book. I don’t think it will ever happen.
Bestiary #1
I am really not joking when I say “This is the first of many magazines some didn’t want you to see”. Even though Bestiary #01 is 28 years old and despite the name is an adult furry comic. Even I wonder why, Bestiary #01 is extremely tame by today’s standards. For example any of those pages can be posted on Facebook without the fear of dreaded porn stamp being place on it.
So what do you get when you open the cover 15 furry art pieces and 3 comics
It’s A Mistake or how to screw up ‘Big’; is a mildly pleasant comic which tells a story of what happens when a male bobcat wants to have sex with a rabbit named Abigail who turns out to have magic powers. Fair, although I was thinking of I Dream of Jeannie as I was reading it.
The Mink’s Main Masher Maneuver is a short tale of a female mink with magic power faces a masher who only has one thing on his mind. This one I thought was cute, it was short and got to the point fast.
The last one is Foxforce part 2 since this the first issue I can only guess at what happened to part 1. It a story about these 2 female mice who get caught of in the wrestling event and forced to battle one another by this promoter. I sense a theme to this issue and in like the first 2 eventually pays for it in the end.
By now the plot is very predictable. Women rule, guys get the crap beaten out of them. Not even interesting.
Overall it’s more interesting what it is, rather than what the issue contains. A furry publication that predates almost every fur con and meet I ever heard of.
Stop Sledgehammering Your Own Views
Last night I really got into it with a now former friend over my blog. They felt it should be run a certain way, while I felt the complete opposite. Not to sound petty, but whose blog is it anyway?!!!
I could blame Donald Trump for this, but I won’t as he is too easy a target. Maybe it’s the times we live in, tensions are at a all time high. More than once I have seen people get in to fist fights over differing opinions.
You got to understand people have their own views on everything. When they been doing something for a while, understand they are in dead set in their ways. No matter how many times you sledgehammer the same subject over and over and over again. They are not going to listen to you. Please stop talking about it.
Maybe I am just a simple guy, but if you don’t like something why are you still doing it. If it involves someone else, realize you aren’t going to change their mind, so shut up and move along.
Maybe that is just too simple for some people. They can not accept the fact the other party is not going to change their mind. No matter how many times you argue the point. Like a good friend and me over this year’s presidential election. After almost coming to blows, we finally agreed to keep our opinions on this election to ourselves.
The easiest way, not come to blows is ask, if they won’t then move along. Call that my simple advise.

Thieves Attempt to Siphon Gas From Bus Accidentally Suck Out Sewage
as originally posted on 973thedawg.com
A few fellas in Australia recently learned a lesson on why you should watch what you put in your mouth.
Some thieves really needed a little gasoline in their lives so they decided to attempt to siphon it from a tour bus. They snuck up to the bus in the middle of the night, stuck a hose in the tank, and got to sucking.
There was one big problem. They put the hose in the wrong place. So instead of siphoning gas, yep, they were siphoning from the sewage tank!
An investigating police sergeant said, “We can infer they [made] a very hasty retreat, with a somewhat bitter taste in their mouth.”
Cops are still trying to track down the perps. Somehow we get the feeling those would-be criminals have already received their punishment.
I Have Been Attacked
I have made it public that I run the Greymuzzle group on Google Plus. In the last 24 hours hit has been it by nothing less than 24 SPAMS, by 3 different attackers. One even had their post rigged so if I blocked them I would be blocking myself. It was the racial hatred in that one repeated posting, that said it was me that caused me to post this. Given threats made against me, by both the author and the site that hosted the original post of the story I tried to repost, I know they had something to do with this. It has to more than just by chance. Oh sure the Greymuzzle group has been hit by spammers more than a few times since I was made it’s owner. But not to this degree, or this level of hatred.
The 12 Tweets I received and that 30 page email making threats against me and my safety more than convinces me. I was targeted. If this continues I will be submitting all that I have saved to the FBI. Spammers and haters I will fight back.
In addition those accounts the spammers used had only been set up in the last 24 hours.
I just checked my Spam filter on my blog and the number of spams blocked has jumped by almost 2,000 since yesterday.
