    "Note: This letter was provided to Dragoneer for review before dissemination. The recipient declined any comment."

    Somehow...I doubt he read it.

    • Link

      No, he did. He's been resppmding to the popular people complaining about it on Twitter as per usual.

      • Link

        course, because the popular people are what matter. Least if he manages to piss them off enough, they can rally their followers to get away from the sinking ship.

    He prolly "tl;dr"

    It sounds almost legal though
    so well written

    I fear for the community as well

    incidentally, it seems a lot are spreading to google+ as well. Fans at least. I wonder what that's about?

    Twitter is booming with furries out of nowhere, too, it seems.

    Change is interesting indeed.

    Oh, and SoFurry is pretty busy too, but idk how trustworthy they are either, -shrugs-

      I like Toumal and a lot of other people do as well. I would suggest either here or SoFurry, Twitter is flooded with callouts and drama and Inkbunny is pedophile heaven.

        Huh, guess I've been lucky enough to avoid those negatives. o.o;
        And I don't have an inkbunny either~ That place makes me. . . . . uncomfortable.

    That was an interesting read. It's still weird for me to think about fA being sold. I actually met Dragoneer at Further Confusion in January, and apparently IMVU was at FC also. It's likely that the negotiations to sell fA were made there. So the whole time I thought I had met the owner of fA, Neer may have already been the ex-owner.

      "So the whole time I thought I had met the owner of FA, Neer may have already been the ex-owner." While this definitely has the potential to go downhill fast, those are the sweetest combination of words I have heard in a long time! :3

    I turn away from the drama hog that is Neer for five minutes, and wouldn't you know that's when he starts perhaps an even bigger flame fest then last time!
    That's my way of saying I wasn't as clued in as I probably should've been this time around. I literally thought the IMVU thing was based on some kind of policy war at first glacne, but... they've actually bought FA? It finally came to that fateful day?
    First thing to go through my head is "why is this a bad thing?" I'm quickly working out that it seems like in most peoples eyes, Neer's sold his baby to satan, to put it charitably! I'd start saving all the "It's still gonna be the exact same as it was guys, dont worry!" speeches right now. In fact I just might! For one reason or the other, I think they might serve an ironic use later.

    For a site that was build for the "community by the community", they sure didn't talk to us about it before selling out O:
