GODDAMMIT SHUT UP ABOUT THE "LOL PR0N" SHIT.

Umm... being human means they make mistakes. So let it go. The deadline thing was a mistake.

Second, back off, buddy. No need to talk to me or anyone else like this with your sarcastic attitude. It makes everyone more angry and it makes you look like a complete douche. Go out and do something because your anger level on this forum is ridiculous.

Third, I'm not whining and complaining about anything. I'm just trying to help, but to be honest, I don't know why. I'm out.

Also, don't tell me to shut up.

OK, This is getting very confusing.

People who are complaining: Ummm...you have a reason last I checked. Just try to keep it civil, don't start making threats.

People who are going "Stop complaining, porn is elsewhere": The people want COMMUNITY. Everyone knows where to find porn, but FA is the only established community alot of people have within the furry fandom-thing.

Plus, we've all be more or less lied to several times within recent weeks, so everyone has the right to complain. If you find it immature, then you don't know what maturity is. Maturity is not 'I don't complain', it's 'I'm civil when I complain and I don't demand immediate action to rectify my displeasure'.

Last I checked, there's no real delay other than Yak wants sleep. That's what Dragoneer said...whether that can be trusted, who knows, but the benefit of the doubt should be given if it's ONLY "Yak wants to be ready to fix any problems should they arise when we flip the swtich".


PS: God, you people who are complaining about people complaining, ever heard of hypocrisy?

Ahw.. Thats too bad. I was kinda looking forward to it.. Ah well, I don't mind. You guys take all the time you need. For what FA has meant to all of us in the past, we really CANNOT complain about a minor setback like this.

Nice, but does it come in pie?

woot, another night to draw countless doodles to direct the publics attention from lack of professional work.

Not sure if your being satirical or serious, either way, it's pretty damn funny at the way your reacting (as is the mass response to this issue).

Kudos to you, to make one of the most, if not the only, intelligent reply on this thread so far.

Sorry if this has been posted already, as I didn't want to bother sifting through all the crybaby temper-tantrums thrown on this thread because they feel they feel as if their human (furry?) rights have been trampled upon or some other unforgivable act of injustice inflicted upon them...

NOTE: Before reading the following, understand that this does not apply to all, nor does all of it necessarily apply to one person. Part or all of this may apply to you, and for some, this doesn't apply at all...cliff's version below for those who have a shorter attention span than a 4-year old.

Seriously, you rotten brats need to outgrow the "I want it here, I want it now" phase. You need to sit back, take a deep breath, and contemplate the fact that the "powers that be" at FA are doing what they can to resurrect the flawed and fallen site. Trust me, I think I can confidently assure you that they want FA to be up and running as much as you do- I'm not a betting man, but I'd say it'd be quite safe to assume they want it to be operational MORESO than you do, simply to quell all the incessant whining and moaning.

Yes, I understand that many of you donated money to bring FA back. YES, IT'S COMING BACK, WORRY NOT. Be extremely grateful that you have folks like Dragoneer, Yak, and others (sorry, I don't know all involved) care enough to bring FA back at all. These guys are busting their asses, and not only that, but they're taking the TIME and EFFORT to make sure EVERYTHING is done CORRECTLY. So many of you bitch and complain about FA being so flawed and such...well, would you rather have them throw FA back online to satisfy your impatient, thoughtless urges, only to hear you cry about FA having problems, even after being down for over a month? I don't know about you, but I could wait indefinitely, so long as those @ FA were making an active effort (which they are) and showing us they are doing so.

Most of you don't even know what the meaning of hard work is, living off parents or working a low-income job, simply because you expect little of yourself and far too much of others. You demand far more than what you put in- simple as that. You don't like what they're doing with FA? Fine, go start your own site up then. Maybe then you'll understand what all is involved when you're running your own FREE site, paid for OUT OF POCKET, and you've got 100k+ members (according to statistics) to please.

If you're not willing to do that, then please, for the sake of the rest of the community...SHUT UP. Why not do something productive for the fandom...some art, music, or fiction perhaps? Can't? Why not try and learn to then? Say you're good enough already? Well hell, then why don't you make some tutorials for the rest of us, or maybe start your own paysite?

Too long for your attention span? I'll give you the cliffs:

Quit your crybaby whining. They're doing all they can to bring FA back up. You don't like it? Do something productive for the fandom. Stop demanding so much of the world, and start demanding more from yourself.
Agreed!

Not to mention the well being of all those working to get the site back up and running is more important than having it up a day or two early. I would also go so far as to make the assumption, that in addition to all the work the mods do to keep the site running and repair it when it goes down. They also have full time jobs to pay for there own interests and bills. There are only so many hours in the day.

So as he said better the site be up and running at 100% and then some. Rather than have it be at half mass. Also anything to do with a database has to do with the entire site. For a site such as FA is in essence a fancy database with a pretty GUI.

Lol @ all the "If you want porn go to [x]" types.

Fun fact: Not everyone that wants FA back wants it back for the porn. I know I don't; as I don't like that stuff. Hard to believe, but it's true. I do however, like some of the art posted there, and it's a great place where I've met some pretty cool people.

We're just as much hypocrites as you are, dear. :) You're just trying to put some logic into action, and that's all we're doing, too.

I'm not complaining that you're complaining, I'm complaining over the REASON you're complaining. This is a PUBLIC forum, it shouldn't matter to you at ALL if someone else is complaining about something that is reasonable to complain about. No one here is going "I'M BOYCOTTING FURAFFINITY" over this, so just shut up and let the people vent.

I un want it for the porn, I want it so I can post the porn.
Does that count?

You can't join a community overnight, sadly. Joining tonight only to have FA back up tomorrow, alot of people would just abandon their yiffstar accounts, so it's better to not make one anyways.

I don't think they try to be clever, funny or unique, they're just trying to help. Since it is true there are many other websites that has tons of porn on them... fA isn't the sole and unique source of it.



Hey I like reading what you post. You're one of those who isn't taking any side seriously. XD

Of course not! If I did, then it would mean I cared...
Like I say:
Nobody cares like I do,
But most tend to care more...

While some people have had some established beginnings within this community, it is not the only one in existence.

Fun fact: Many people go on several communities and you can find some familiar names in other websites. These are interactive communities with art,pictures, journals and all the other things FA offers. If people are so desperate I suggest they look to other communities for the time being.

This has been a very stressful time for many of us, and so I send all my love and support to the admins and users alike. We will be able to move forward because we are family.

That being said, I can't resist this:

MICHAEL PALIN: "I'd like to complain about people who are complaining about people who complain. It's time something was done about it!"
