Hey I'm new here!

Hey I'm new here!

I am just now becoming a furry, forgive my terminology for furry "lingo", I want to know how I get started. I always thought that furries were all people who dressed up as animals and did things that I shouldn't say on this forum based on the initial rules.

This forum looks awesome and I'm ready to start.

Welcome aboard to the forum and the fandom!

At the end of the day, furries are overall a bunch of friendly and accepting people that like animals. We like to think this is a place people can feel safe, furry or not.

Hello doomcat, welcome to the forum!
Don't worry, we were all starting once. Or at least I was, maybe some were born as furries
In general, this is a friendly and welcoming place regardless of who you are, so feel free to explore and chat with people! That's the best way of seeing how things work here.
If you have any questions or just want to chat send me a message, I'll be happy to help :3
See you around!
Everyone seems to have it, so here's mine

Personally I have not found a more welcoming group of people, considering the uncertainties outside of the fandom.

I'm glad you're here Doom! ^_^

Welcome! I understand hearing bad rumors. It's really just a tight knit community of feathers, fluf, scales, and mythical creatures. Enjoy! ^_^

Glad to meet you.  I, too, have learned that there were more to being a furry than the initial reputation.
