Why not enlighten us and make this thread, y'know, less "rumormill"?
I suppose I wanted to see what kind of reception I'd get: Whether it would be at least marginally rational and inquisitive, or the standard Internet-goon "I want something to hate on for the sole purpose of hating on it, regardless of the new information I've been presented with" mentality. You know, the sort of, "I heard about some granule of truth that was twisted by the rumormill into something completely outrageous, already have a preconceived notion about everything, and the actual, detailed truth can't possibly be reality" mindset. So far, I've received the latter until your reply and I didn't feel that it was really worth my time trying to convince people, with that kind of steadfast bullheadedness, that they're completely off-base.
I also didn't want to come in here and be all like, "I'M AN AUTHORITY ON THIS SUBJECT LISTEN TO ME", 'cause that almost never gets a fair reception either. As Jim Demintia pointed out, though, yes, I've been part of planning and execution for the Elliott parties since the beginning.
In addition, I thought that I had heard just about every ridiculous rumor that has been floating around regarding the events at this point, but "life-wrecking shit" was intriguing, and I was curious to know what that one was all about.

I don't know that I've *ever* been somewhere where people were so damn horny and desperate they pretty much started fucking out in the open
Sex happens. I'm willing to place a substantial bet that someone in the world is having sex RIGHT NOW, while you're reading this. OH NO! QUICK! DO SOMETHING!
If you're located at any given venue, as a growing number of people congregate there, the more likely it is that sex will happen within your proximity and the greater the chances you'll have of stumbling upon it. This concept is not limited to furry, either. Even with that statistical reality, I don't think any of us was prepared for it to happen in the way that I described in my quoted Livejournal comment either. Whether you believe it or not, what I put into that post is what happened. "The tent" (it's more like a portable carport with walls) was an attempt at mitigating what some of the guests and co-hosts pointed out as a problem. It wasn't decked out with a whole bunch of specified attention, neon lights, advertisements in the invitations, or whatever, as something that is a perk for attending, either. The things that are included in the invitations are what are expected by the hosts to be at the parties. Some of the guests brought their own sex with them.
Personally, I haven't witnessed any sex happening at any of the events. The closest thing to it, that I did witness, was one instance where an individual was in the garage (the arcade was set up there at the time), said something about his endowments, someone else challenged it, and he was ready to just drop trou, right then and there, to prove his manliness or whatever (yes, he started to unzip). I happened to be passing by right as that part of the conversation was going on, said, "Ohh, no you don't". Then I told him that it was rather inappropriate and I'm sure that there were people in there who didn't need to see it and didn't want to see it. For those who did want to see it, they could go see it somewhere else.
The party's co-hosts are pretty busy just making sure that food is put out on time, things are set up where they're supposed to be, there's adequate lighting in outdoor areas, the tiki torches get lit to keep the bugs away, or what have you. It's nearly impossible for them to be everywhere, all the time, trying to police every random, inappropriate behavior. If too much security staff is added, guests start complaining about that, too, because they feel like it's uncomfortable, unwelcoming, and overbearing. I'm sure there's a balance somewhere, but whatever... It's a party. Random shit happens. A lot of times, it happens and the co-hosts don't even find out about it until a guest complains well after the party is over. Stumbling upon random acts of a sexual nature was one such "after the fact" thing, and "the tent" was the co-hosts' reaction to it.
The party's reputation got more flak from the tent's mere existence than it did for the random acts of sex out in the open, so it has since been taken down and its contents (the couch and mattress mentioned in my LJ comment) have been set ablaze and reduced to ashes. It wasn't the most environmentally friendly way of dealing with it, but to be perfectly frank and based on the theater of the mind about what may have happened in there, nobody wanted to touch it.
Yes, this is the same cheerleader who registered on VegasFurs some time ago.
I've never been in contact with or registered on VegasFurs, so I'm not sure what is even being talked about, here.
Yes, modest furries not wanting to take credit for something. That sounds like a totally realistic (...)
Well, whether your sarcasm indicates that you believe or disbelieve that it can happen, I was there when it was being discussed, and the reasons given in my first post were the actual reasons for the fictional character host.
o person whose name is from a Disney movie yet probably has COPYWRITE TO ME all over commissioned pics of his murrsona.
I don't claim to be very creative. I obviously didn't bother spending what little creativity I have on my nickname. I don't have any "commissioned pics of a murrsona", either, 'cause I haven't been imaginative enough to fantasize about something that I'm not. It's just a name - like Bob, Jim, Mike, and Dan are names. Do I like The Lion King? Yes, I joined the masses who contributed to the $783M it grossed in the theaters.
