I fell into the mistake of being too trusting to people I didn't know. This isn't the fandom that it used to be. It's a mistake to simply trust someone who calls themself a fur these days.
Cause, previously, you could always unquestionably trust someone based on their fandom, sexuality, relegion, line of work or any other allegence, without possibly getting bitten in the ass for it.
It's becoming a real problem in the fandom, and is probably a result of the gay and raver night club scenes converging into the fandom.
Wait, what? Ravers in the furry fandom? Since when? Oh sure, there's 'RaverFurs' but those are just the same social shutins with glow sticks on webcam. And 'convention raves' sure as hell don't count. Seriously, I use RaverFurs as the prime example of a fursona that has traits that the real person wishes they have, that they could easily engage in in real life, but absolutely don't anyway, proving that most furries, tragicly, will invest more effort into 'playing pretend' than ever doing some 'cool thing' in real life.
