As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.
Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.
No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!
Uh, no. There's no overwhelming anti-furry persecution mentality going on.
Not overwhelming, but clearly not to be underestimated either.
Most people either don't know what a furry even is, or if they do, they don't care.
But that is not the part I even have a problem with.
Just like any other subculture, haters will hate and incidents will happen.
So poison gas attacks happen frequently? Are these conventions or are these war-zones now?
I feel sorry for those who had their night ruined.
Forget about that, 19 people could have died.
The furry community should do what they've always done, keep on keeping on with their own thing and not let isolated incidents stop them from doing what they want to do. That's about as far as my feelings on this event go.
And I completely agree with that. As soon as people start being afraid of being furries, then the attack was successful.
Besides, didn't Sonic's parents fight people who think like this idiot during the Great War?
[It will be in PM. I told you otherwise. I don't want others input to be shouted out and overshadowed because of this. We are covering a lot of heated ground. Like I insisted before, we will talk about it person to person. I will Pm you. And do you have a Skype? We can talk personally that way. It's much better that way to understand where each one of us are coming from. I do not wish this to devolve into a one on one debate between you and me; as others should give their thoughts. Us just slinging walls of text at each will not help us or others. Let's not argue for the sake of argument. Let's actually try to reason with a goal in mind shall we? This is not about one-ups-menship, it's about reasoning important issues through and correctly. You might find we agree on a lot more than you think.]
Well at LEAST you're not locking the topic, that's a start I suppose. But keep in mind I'm not doing this for one-upmenship.
I guess for now I'll just leave the past where it belongs. I'll focus more on the future from this point forward.
