Imagine if there was tests to be allowed in

This is just kinda funny and some of you guys' dreams probably.

Imagine if there was a test you had to pass to allow someone into the fandom. For example:

~Had to be employed or looking for a job (or a good excuse, like disability, not to)
~Had to be proven to be mentally sane/no mental disorders that interfere too much
~No criminal record (though it depends what it is)
~Had to live on your own or at least with roommates (and not with parents) by age 30
~Have to go outside everyday, beyond your yard

Imagine how many of the bad stereotypes we would instantly weed out by needing all that. XD It would be completely different. Anyone else agree with this? :3

(This isn't serious, just a joke XP don't take it serious)

Hey, Assbutt
This whole thread is fucking stupid. How exactly would you even regulate a hobby? Dumb dumb dumb.

I'm fired up!
whew!

i almost thought this would be another IRL furry thread!

not that it isn't as bad...

If there was such a test as that, I would most defiantly fail it :3

Hey, Assbutt
Anyway, the one about not living with parents is an especially stupid one. In the current economic climate, unless you somehow get a decently paid job, there's no way you can afford to live away from home.

I work full-time, rarely spend money on stuff, yet I only just stay afloat by living with my parents. And I know of a lot of people in the same situation. Unless you have a significant other, it's almost impossible on a standard job.

It's not like being a furry is something like being a part of an elite-club that needs regulation.
Bad idea overall.

Gonna have to agree with you too.
There's nothing wrong with living with your parents, especially when you have a jerb and assist them with the household. Right now, living on your own by yourself (based on income) or with roomates can be troublesome if you aren't making enough.
 
But that would be really, really boring. Joking or not, that's a pretty bullshit idea. If you want a bunch of normalfags circle jerking in their own shitty normalfag club, just join Facebook.

Yes we're infested with losers and weirdos. This is what differentiates a fandom from a porno with Average Joe and Regular Sally having consensual sex in the missionary position for the sole purpose of procreation. The immense variety of introverted low-lifes here is what keeps the place interesting.

BUT I'M A CREEP. I'M A WEIRDOOOOOO.

What exactly would we do to keep people out?

"YOU THERE! YES YOU! STOP ENJOYING THAT ANTHRO ART RIGHT THIS FUCKING MOMENT. YOU'RE NOT WORTHY OF OUR FURFAGGOTRY!"

Interestingly in real life there are 'gated communities' where they only allow people to buy a home who the rest of the community agrees to let in, there are examples in Chichester, UK, I think, and there are 'gated' romance hotels in antigua.

...such communities are not renowned for their diversity or progressivness...or tollerance even towards things like dissability or homosexual couples.

"If there was tests"
What

Dude I hardly speak English right and

IF THERE WAS TESTS

WAS TESTS


Anyway the way we could do it, Unsilenced, is we could have like the Department Of Mentality Verification which will be a godless wasteland where you go get your official Furry license.

It'll take hours on end and be run by no-talent assclowns who fap to furry porn on their computers all day instead of doing their jerbs so you and 40 other people get to wait in line

Then you say "fuck this" and you decide to be a furry illegally, create a fake ID and join furry websites

Soon the commission money you circulate through the furry community will negatively impact the licensed furries and there will be protests and demonstrations and sit-ins

And there will be news coverage

'You have been found mentally sane and stable by our team of shrinks, you may now pick up your acrylic ears and tail and dance around pretending to be a raccoon, Good day!'
 
That would please me to no end. I would like a test like that for all of my interests.

I would keep it to just mental illnesses and bizarre fetishes, though. I don't think you can judge someone based on their income or living situation. If all the zoophiles, pedophiles, extreme fetishists, and sufferers of autism were banned from the fandom, I would not lose any interest in it at all. Not only would the fandom improve greatly, but if more people stood up against extreme fetishists, the world would be a much better place, too.

It always amuses me that in a fandom that revolves so strongly around the sexualization of cartoon animals, people think that we only have a bad reputation because some of us are still living with our parents.

"Nothing wrong with a man who enjoys a good wolf cock, but living in one's mother's basement? That I can't abide by."

Yes. We must eliminate all autistic people.

Oh deary me. The fact you lump Paedophiles and people with autism in the same boat says volumes about the credibility of your sentiment.


To parody banksy, I've written a short list of people who should be excluded from liking furry fandom.

-Autistics
-Paraphiles
-People who write lists telling you who should be excluded from liking furry fandom.

Were you dropped at birth or are you seriously and in full conciousness grouping people with autism with zoophiles?
Honestly, I hope you fall under the former.

I remember working with 2 kids with aspergers syndrome as a mentor type figure while they were getting used to college and being on campus full time. Real bright kids, although one of them was a little spooky because he was really gung ho about krav maga and didn't know when to stop. The two knew each other and were mutually unaware of each other's autism and thought the other one was a fucking nutcase. Watching them interact and try really hard to be nice only to ultimately stomp off like "WHATEVER THAT GUY'S A FUCKING WEIRDO" was better than cable.
