Anyone Still Alive - Looking for Co-Owner/Co-Administrator
General | Posted 12 years ago= ( I want to apologize for what has happened over the last several months to a year or so.
I've been busy with finishing my program and such and I honestly forgot the page was still here. I feel awful about it and really am sorry it's gotten neglected so bad.
So... I have reached an impass...
I need a Co-Owner/Co-Administrator to help me revive the page and bring it back to life.
If you are interested in helping me, note me on my personal FA account at
Orionthedragon
You can be a graduate and still run the page... if we do get another Graduate, I will look for a 3rd Co-Administrator to be an Undergrad Liaison...
I'm sorry again for the drop in activity... -_-; Thanks all!

New Year, Let's Regroup... (Plus other stuff)
General | Posted 13 years agoHey Guys,
I first of all want to sincerely apologize... I've been doing a rather cruddy job as an administrator and overseer of this group. Sadly, like all of us, I'm also trying to mix school and leisure together (and so far it's proving a rather interesting predicament).
So this year I hope we can really florish! Here are my plans.
1) We need to get an Administration team together. I will probably be looking for 2 other people to help me run the page. Administration experience is preferred but not required.
2) I heard through the grapevine someone wanted to create a 'Furry Table' at TUC. 8D Excellent suggestion and Idea! If you guys ever want to get this put together... I am in TUC most of the time. You can shoot me a message on FA (I almost ALWAYS have FA up during a school day) and/or ask for a my cell and I can tell you where i am. I am shooting for the tables to be in the atrium vicinity on the 200 Level.
3) This is up to the majority, but... how would you guys feel of trying to get UCFurs to be an actual UC Student Organization? You can say yay or nay, I'm just hatching possible ideas at the moment... but its always good to be curious.
4) One idea that I've had is to have a Furwalk around campus sometime... it may happen this Semester or it may have to be held off till Fall Semester 13'. The debate about this is if UC officials would classify this as 'a movement' which would mean we'd be stuck at the little Triangular shaped patch of grass in McMicken... I'm up for suggestions... or for you all to say 'thats not a bad idea' or 'thats not gonna work'.
5) (Repeat #1)
6) SW Ohio Furs Meet Next Saturday (JANUARY 26TH). To find out more about this meet, which includes lunch at Steak N' Shake in Western Hills, bowling at Western Bowl, and a Movie down at the AMC Newport... contact
NekoHaiku for more.
7) SPREAD THE WORD! Get your other furiends who are also Bearcats to start watching!
;.=.; I'm sorry for the delay... hope 2013 is AWESOME!

OrionthedragonSORRY FOR THE DELAY! Updates and More
General | Posted 13 years agoHey Guys!
Orionthedragon here,
I first of all want to apologize greatly for any delays. = ( I worked all summer at a Job within the University and also at Kings Island on top of it.... so that ate up all my time and concentration.
My goal is to hopefully find a person to Co-Admin for me so then that way this site stays up to date.
It's getting close to the Holiday Season, be on the look out for meets galore!
Thats all for now! Later fuzzies!

Slow Quarter to End, Summertime Beginnings and More!
General | Posted 14 years agoHey everyone!
Orionthedragon here. Hopefully the quarter has been treating you all well. This quarter hasn't been too hard, frustrating at times, but not too hard.
As the summer approaches, the number of meets and cons is going to skyrocket. I do not have any official UCFurs meets planned as of yet, seeing as I like to keep the whole SWOhio/Cincinnati area together, so at this point, unless someone wants to create one... we will not be worrying about that (
NekoHaiku takes care of that really well).
Some up and coming attractions for you all to enjoy!
~AnthroCon
June 14-17 2012, Pittsburgh, PA
~June SWOhio Fur Meet
TBD
~KIFur 2012
August 1st 2012. Kings Island Amusement Park, Mason OH
~Camp Critter 2012
August 3rd-5th 2012. Hueston Woods Park, Oxford OH
...More Info to Come...
So, lots coming soon, plus some meets in the middle. Hope to see you all there!
Starwing Out!

Roadbumps...
General | Posted 14 years agoHey everyone,
Orionthedragon here:
= ) First of all, great turnouts coming thanks to those flyers! We recently had
Crimson-Wolf join the group, and I'm already uber excited to see who else will hear about us. However, we've hit a bit of a roadblock.
= ( It appears that UC Grounds has taken all of my flyers down. I looked at my most obvious places (there was a flyer right outside TUC on a Mainstreet sign, and two on the Varsity Village sign near CCM Circle. If they are gone, I'm fearing my canvas in McMicken has been foiled as well. There could be numerous things, but I think I may have possibly figured the base issues out:
1) Sadly, as I've mentioned in the flyers and in previous messages (if I haven't then here it is), UC Furs (or UC Anthropomorphic Society) is NOT yet an official group of The University of Cincinnati. This is soly a non-official group that just happens to be geared for UC Furrys.
2) As most on main campus realize, UC is a huge stickler for policy. I bet 10-1 the reason why the few signs I posted on MainStreet got taken down, was because I didn't clear them with MainStreet Connection, which I find a bit stupid, since I see random signs all the time. Heck! I put 15 flyers up for my church's Easter Service at US Bank Arena, and THOSE are still up! Awkward much?
3) With us not being an official UC group (as in recognized by UC as an actual crew), I had placed it on the flyer saying 'Not yet offiliated with UC Student Activities and Leadership Development (SALD)". This too may have been the spine to spike us.
4) ^^; It may have helped if I hadn't used the UC symbol like what we have in the group icon... or at least slap a disclaimer.
Obviously I'm still really new to running a group, but luckily we have enough furs in this group now that it should begin to carry merit by word of mouth. Slowly but surly I may think about recruiting some co-admins to get this group off the ground better. I also wanna hear from our friends in Blue Ash and in Clermont to see about trying to get some satellite groups going if need be, because folks... UC is a HUGE campus complex... there's gotta be more of us out there.
So what's my challenge to you all? Keep it up! Mention to friends of yours that are Furs! Tell them that we are wanting to get up there with OSU, heck... maybe even get them out of the water! >= D I have hope this group can thrive, long after I'm long gone.
Thanks so much guys!
Oh, and in other news:
Southwest Ohio Furs (SWOhioFurs) is holding a meet in May (it was originally scheduled for April, but due to time conflicts... it's been pushed back. To find out more, click this >>> http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3315171/ .
Also, if you're not already a member of
Ohiofurs, do so now! Be sure to look for the 'fur list' Journal and supply your current county. This way Neko and the crew can get you to the correct region's subpage and even join in on some fun meets. Also... if you are already apart of SWOhioFurs and OhioFurs, be sure to join SecondHaven at http://www.secondhaven.furstar.net and create an account!
Thanks guys!

OrionthedragonFlyers Flyers Everywhere!
General | Posted 14 years agoHey fellow Bearcats!
Well I did it. 15 flyers out on a line, to try and get more furs to join our slowly growing group. I'd like to welcome
WhiteflameK to our wonderful group. He is one of the first members to join after the flyers where posted. So this proves that:
1) Flyers do work
2) There are furries on this campus. (YES! I DON'T FEEL ALONE! 8D)
I plan on doing another canvas as the quarter progresses, and especially plan on going to town sometime when Fall Semester starts. I have mentioned to everyone in the group thus far to share the word with other furs within UC. It doesn't matter if they are Undergraduate, Graduate, Masters, PhD, Alumni... I want them on board.
If you guys would love to help me spread around some flyers... I can give you the word document I made to create it.
YES! I do know that I accidentally misspelt 'Anthropomorphic' in the flyer, but not on the logo. I was short on time and wanted to get the flyers out before Easter weekend.
Keep the word going around guys, I'm sorry I haven't updated this page as much as I wish I could... school is rough.
Thanks guys and gals!
Sincerely,
Orion Starwing

Revamping UCFurs, New Logo and Flyers
General | Posted 14 years agoHey Everyone!
Orionthedragon here:
= \ I know I haven't been updating this site as much as I want to, but to be honest I've been trying to hatch some new ideas to get this group under way... and I think that I have it about seat up. Here's my plan:
Name Addition: UCFurs will remain the name of our FurAffinity account, but the formal name will be The University of Cincinnati Anthropomorphic Society. It will make it a little more appealing to individuals (we will throw the word Furry into the flyer somehow so people know what is what).
I intend to debut the name change on the upcoming fliers.
New Logo: With my newfound knowledge of Adobe Illustrator, I intend to create a new Logo for UC Furs to be used for our logo here on FurAffinity, and on the fliers... that will be posted eventually.
Flyers: = ) After talking to numerous folks on campus, it appears that you are allowed to post items on the boards so long as it's within reason. Looks like that means our flier ideas are a go.
= D I will begin devising a banner idea soon to use for the flyers.
Looks like we are slowly on the move, if you know other furs on campus, forward them here!
Stay cool guys!
Sincerely,
Orionthedragon

General | Posted 14 years agoHey UC Furs!
= ) Slowly but surly we are getting into the swing of things. For those new folks we'd like to welcome you to the group... hopefully it will continue to grow.
Some fun news!
SWOhio_Furs has a meet coming up in the next week, a bowling meet at Western Bowl bowling alley! For those new furs, this is an excellent meet to actually go out and meet some pretty awesome Local furs.
My friend,
NekoHaiku is the one putting this whole gig together... so if you have any questions about the meet or getting to it, you can ask me, him or post on the Second Haven page.
This meet will start at the Steak N' Shake just up the road from the alley... followed by two or so hours of bowling. We may even go to a movie after bowling... right now its looking like the Newport AMC Theaters.
If you're interested, buzz me a note.

Initial Welcome! Intentions to Grow, Etc.
General | Posted 14 years agoHey Everyone!
My my, the numbers are slowly beginning to trickle in and such. Just last week this was a small idea, and surely enough, we've gotten some more folks on board.
I want to welcome everyone, because you are here... this group is bound for some awesome successes.
The intentions of the University of Cincinnati Furs are pretty straight forward:
1) To allow Furs at UC the ability to mingle with other Furs within the University.
2) To build a Furry presence at UC
3) To just have fun! (No Popufur Antics Here folks!)
Of course the intentions are always up for revision and so forth... I'm just eager as heck to get this group off the ground.
As I mentioned in the previous Journal, if you know any other furs in UC that don't know about this page, forward them a Hyperlink NOW! Also, if you are not apart of Second Haven, join that at the link below:
http://secondhaven.furstar.net/news.php <<<Second Have webpage

OrionthedragonHello From UCFurs!
General | Posted 14 years agoHey Everyone!
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is
Orionthedragon and Welcome to the official FurAffinity page for the furs of the University of Cincinnati.
I've been hatching this idea for quite some time and decided to give it a shot. I also thought to myself, "Hey! The Ohio State University has a furpage, why not UC? So I decided to give it a go around.
As you can see on the main page, its kinda bare, but I'm working with several other local furs to hopefully get this off the ground.
Now, you may be wondering, what's in this for you? Well in an effort to save time, I'll keep it short and sweet.
Essentially, I want this group to consist of furs that are actively at UC, planning on attending UC, or those who are Alumni.
If you are a Fur that goes to UC, please tell me your college so I can add you to the lists. You can message me here or you can contact me at ucfurs@gmail.com.
My goal is to hopefully have a decent sized furgroup soon. I know it will take a while for it to grow, but I have faith that there are UCFurs out there. Somewhere.
If you want to help me run the group in anyway (helping update this page, possible shameless plugs on MainStreet and inside TUC (Tangeman University Center) and throughout campus, etc). Drop me a line.
Thanks everyone, and welcome again!
Sincerely,
Orion Starwing
Creator/Founder of UCFurs
