Yes, after much mind debate and different forum-jumping, I come to you, my family, my blood, my screen-name brethren that both like the medeival era AND games, into a war that by far may change... nothing at all, actually!

You might be wondering what the heck I'm talking about, and I still don't fully understand it. The overview of it all is in all of 2 words: Furry war.

No, I'm not talking about one of zoph's stories (bad mod joke), but instead an actual interweb flame war that has gone so far for two internet POLITICAL PARTIES.

First party:
The Trolls. Basically, they... wlel, they troll. Now trolls aren't even in furrywar only. Trolls are just jackoffs with nothing better to do than to make fun of other people or just verbally assault one another for teh fun of it. Basically, they're e-thugs, because talking smack in person is dangerous.

Second party:
Furries. Well, long story short, Zoph is one of them. Though, from what I remember, she doesn't really think of herself as a hardcore furry or anything like that. Furries are generally about tolerance, and having a good time. Least that's what I've gathered from youtubing for an obscene amount of time and getting into a few flame wars myself, I've found I actually support this group purely because they make the most sense.

The war? What's it about? Oh it's simple. Near nothing, of course! It's all just two people yelling at each other. They just have opposing views and what do they do because of it?

Get over them and make love, peace, and overall better the world!

Just kidding, they fight and flame like /b/tards.

Now then, here's my views on the subject from both points of view:

Troll View: Okay, furries are different from me and have different sexual habits..... kay, I watch porn on a daily basis so I really shouldn't care but I do anyways!

Furry View: Trolls are meanies who want nothing but to eff with me, so instead of just ignoring them and reportning them I'll...... FLAME BACK!

Neutral View: well both of the stereotypical sides are pretty much hypocrites. The furries are supposedly supposed to be all about tolerance or something while they don't tolerate the trolls or their habits, and the trolls shun the furries due to their perfectly JUSTIFIED hate for humanity and &quoterverted" ways. Hey troll, what's that I see in your bookmarks? ... is it... it can't be.... PORN?! YOU SHOULD DIE IN A FIRE ON A STAKE!!!!

Now then, what're your views on the subject? Please be good about this and not just f*ck around, please?

That's good to know Zophia. As for the term furry in order to understand the nature of this term one must first understand the nature of terms themselves. Terms can have concrete meanings or they can have a variety of abstract meanings, it all depends on what people assign them. I believe that the reason we are having so much trouble actually defining the term furry is cause we cannot all agree on the definition, and until someone comes along with a simple clear definition of the term that works for everyone we will continue to have these discussions attempting to do just that. My personal view on the subject is this, if you want to be a furry you are, if you dont want to be a furry you are not. that is because ultamitely its the individual that defines the term and every other term.

I can actually say from a Furry point of view, I have been one for 4 years, we simply are fans of anthro animals. I will say some of what said here is correct, but I actually don't mind trolls even though they sometimes will get annoying some tend to be funny. But I actually joined because of the art, people, and fursuits which I believe are really cool in my definition, even though some people hate it and still think it's weird I can agree it is weird but when you're a furry it seems normal.
