So, to those of you here on Weasyl: do you think changing a web site will really change things? The furry fandom is still made up of the same people, no matter what site they're on. What makes you think that the infighting and toxic bullshit that was on FA won't follow?

This isn't a cut & paste of my FA journal on the subject, but it's a rewording of my thoughts. The fandom is the same fandom, no matter where it goes. Meaning the same problems will plague it; and the biggest problem I see is the lack of respect and concern we have for one another. I remember joining this fandom and feeling good about it. Through all the bad, I've felt good about being included in this group of people.

Until I saw how people treated one another over the issues on FA. I saw toxicity and bile like I've never known in furries. I may have said some thing which were ire-inducing, but at least I didn't attack people themselves. I...are you all really going to just go back to pretending like nothing happened? After what you all said to one another?

Why am I a part of a fandom that hates itself so much...? I use to really believe in us as a group...
