   the furry community    
   on the Usenet is like. Never have used anything like this before for sure.

   now, getting my start in furry on things like FurNation (RIP) and SecondLife   
   before moving to things like FurNet and FurryMUCK not all that long after,   
   along with Twitter. I    
   write for WikiFur regularly, and very often come across mention of this place   
   but only now decided to drop by! I am quite interested in the sort of history   
   of the fandom, and have been collecting a decent bit of older furry media like   
   comics from the 90'   
   s, old conbooks and things, etc. Kicking around on a 20 year old furry   
   newsgroup is right up my alley!

   Too much noise, too much drama, and too much clout chasing for me.

   It is, to a small extent.  A lot of us really old farts hang out in the   
   YiffNet Discord server these days.
