My resignation

19 years ago General

I have for many years counseled against allowing an open mind to lead to a lack of standards.

Fur Affinity's recent decision to allow "cub art," which is a euphemism for child erotica, is not acceptable. The fact that the euphemism is being used tells me something very important about the mindset here. This has been couched in freedom of speech terms, and I respect the administrators' rights to allow what speech they will.

I have long been an advocate of intact families and safe harbors for the most vulnerable among us. Therefore, I cannot in good conscience remain in a place which publicly promotes a practice prejudicial to that goal.

Thank you for your time and attention.

*snugs ya* I expected this once the announcement came out. It's the right decision for you and I'd probably do the same thing if I had any art on here. I'll email ya later. I'm hoping to have something for ya in the coming days ;)

There's a lot of child porn on the internet...

I guess it's time to leave the internet.

I agree entirely.. and the whole cub thing sickens me to the core..it's sick and uneeded and in fact i beleave whole heartedly the only reason fur affinidy allows it is to get more views..

but really .. as i said before.. if your extra viewers are people just a few steps away from being child molesters.. then what kind of site are you running?!?

It can't even be called acceptence.. accepting and tolerating ..in a word.. phedopheila is a fucked up and twisted way to look at our art and our values.

And frankly the tards who go "But it's only a picture.. a drawing....and..and...and this is the internets." can go fuck themselfs as well. No expections to their bullshit.

I will not quit Fur Affinidy for the simple fact i want to entertain those who are smart and compassionate enough not to like baby pussy.

But i totaly accept and respect your choice.. good luck in the future.

OMG, all these poor furry families whose cubs are bedased by the makers of cup-pr0n... Man, there is a differnce between cub pic and pedophilia nad it's REALITY and lack of it! (BTW, i don't dig cubs or shota, but i don't want to be charged for mass murder because i killed some bunches of pixels in Wlofstein 3D and Doom.)

And another one bites the dust. *sigh*

You'll be missed, sir. I do hope, like your other fans, that you will let us know where to find your work from here on out. It's a damn shame to be losing access to my favorite artists because of this whole fiasco.
