what constaints/rules are you all referring to?
http://www.thefurryforum.com/forums/index.php?action=rules

Does that help. I might have a look at them myself as I've not looked at them. o.o Yeah, I've been on here for this long and not even looked at the rules, but I've played by the obligatory common sense forum rules. o.o
With 955 characters for a signature, I can try make something funny or interesting but no, I'm just gonna sit here and type instead of going to work because breaking the fourth wall is more humour than trying to figure out how I'll get access to my other laptop; picking up my charger that I left at a friends house, around 40 miles away...

Good going Sparky, you did well. On the plus side, it's given you a chance to accidentally revisit some old stomping grounds and see what madness you can create during this seemingly temporarily return.

i do too, the rules dont seem much different from the rules of other forums i use, so i don't see what there is to complain about.

Obviously I just have a quick look over them for any differences from the one's I've seen, but most of them are the same, but tailored for each forum. Now I hope I'm not getting a wrath for not reading the rules...which would be ironic. o.o

I don't see the furry fandom "decreasing" however i see a decrease of people wanting to become furrys or accept furrys and not stereotype us.
A good example of the 2nd option (stereotyping us) would be a forum i like to go on called the3eds. which had a major stereotyping of us furrys do to a thread known as "club ed" which featured some "kinky" anthro stuff. then later some "OH GOD FURRY OH GOD NO TEAM FORTRESS 2 IS THE BEST GAME EVAR" stuff followed.

yeah there is definitely a lot of stereotypes about us :/ but it also seems like not many people know about the fandom either

We always talk about the sterotypes about furs, yet they'll never change, its a sad fact of life.

Furries arent decreasing, lots of people join, we just never see them

They'll learn the ropes for the most part, then leave for a site that has looser rules.

Actually, I'm kinda the opposite of that. I stay on sites regardless of how tough the rules are. I've had links removed from posts many times, I've moaned but accept it. It's mainly the drama-furs that leave a site for another with looser rules, as I've found.

TRUE THAT SPARKY!! :D
