    hai guys im ba-

    Woah, WOAH!? Trav, are you trying to steal the position of Most Hated and Most Opposing user around here? That's my job.

    Also, isn't it usually me shouted at for calling stuff NSFW and stuff? Wow. Looks like something is screwed up.


    Actually, your shouting about NSFW is possibly what caused it :P

    Quote from Mage_of_Cats

    Hmm...

    Who's the youngest on this thread?

    Just out of curiosity. XD


    Not me :P

    PS: When did this 'episode' occur? I may have been here but not seen it. T_T


    February

    Quote from Sgt. Traveler

    By the way, something I wondered. If you "transformed" yourself into an anthro, how would your inner biological parts follow the transformation? I mean, our, say, stomach works differently than that of a, say, canine's.


    I always imagine it as a complete body change, not just growing fur and a muzzle.

    The fundamental idea is that a furry would be a different species, mammalian, but close to the evolutionary lie of a human, so, in principal, the changes shouldn't be too drastic. Thus, your innards changing would not have too much of an impact on yourself.

    I was going to just read the replies, but Waskom_Frost got a +3, so people obviously trust him more than they do me. I can't ignore it. Thanks, Obama.

    For anyone who DID give him a +1, please tell me why, preferably in a PM.

    Also, if you don't want to see any more of these posts, stop giving the people I am against +1s. I won't see a need to reply if they assault me with baseless accusations and get no other support. I feel obligated to reply because it seems people are taking his word over mine, but his word is ridiculous.

    Quote from Enorym

    I DID give you the title. Straight from your DeviantArt.


    Yes, you did. However, it's clear from your quotes that you were accusing me of liking NSFW content, which is the opposite of what your post claims (i.e. that I was accusing others of NSFW).


    I never said you weren't reported. I said you reported others. Because you did.


    I never reported anyone. Do you have any proof that I did anything of the sort? DID you have any proof? See, the problem with you saying "You reported people." is you can't know that. Reporting is a private thing, unless you make it public. How could you possibly "know" I reported anyone?

    Quote from Waskom_Frost

    First of all, you are using screenshots that only show posts that help you, not the posts that got deleted because of you.


    No ­, Sherlock. I can't post screenshots of the posts that were deleted, and I'll post the whole conversation if you want me to.

    Second, people can tell you started this entire string of posts just to halt the thread and get it deleted,


    Repeating lies doesn't make them true. Just because you think you know why I did something doesn't make it so. Stop saying lies.

    Why don't you just trust me when I say "No, you've misunderstood?" Why is that so hard?

    or at least thats what it seems like to me, won't go and put words in your mouth like a jerk, thats just how I feel.


    "people can tell you started this entire string of posts just to halt the thread and get it deleted"

    Pick a side :/

    Third, you were given a warning from one mod,


    I remember Xetron saying to essentially drop it, but that's it.

    and said sorry to another mod from what it looks like,


    Xetron was the only one involved as far as I remember.

    meaning that screenshot of you saying sorry means nothing unless you can get a mod to back up your post.


    It was a PM, not a post. If you want Xetron to certify my PM, ask him.

    Forth, you have been causing problems in this thread, by turning my warning to not begin flame wars and such around, and making it seem like I'm the bad guy.


    Well, essentially, it was this:

    Everyone: Playing nice
    Trav: Playing nice
    Everyone: Playing nice
    Everyone: Playing nice
    Everyone: Playing nice
    Trav: Playing nice
    Waskom: TRAV, YOU BETTER PLAY NICE!

    I'm sure how you can see how this can be considered rude and pointless.

    I'm sorry, but I need to say it, before this thread gets deleted for being off topic for to long. Please stop posting on this matter and let us go back to posting about art and ideas.


    If you didn't want an argument about this again, WHY DID YOU BRING IT BACK UP?

    Also, I was not joking about reporting you for going off topic again, so don't blame me for what is about to happen.


    This post, the one I am replying to, breaks the same rules: You are doing the same thing that you reported me for.

    Oh, for the love of... OK, I'm going to make one post about this. One. I'm also going to put most of it in spoilers. For anyone not in the know, it was basically a cluster­ over things some people accused me of. I didn't get any infractions for what I did, so clearly the mods didn't think I did anything that bad. My word against theirs, and the posts were hidden. However, I do have some PMs from the event that I can show.

    Quote from Mage_of_Cats

    Woah? What? What did you say to get [them] upset? KaBling is easily upset, the others... what happened?

    And to top it off... Waskom is trying to make sure that this topic is here for generations to come, for furrys all around the world to enjoy and laugh at our pitiful attempts at art/typing to one another. Can't blame him.


    Someone said "Keep nudity our of [whatever we were talking about]" and I said "But... why?" as a joke. If you've seen YGOTAS, you'd understand it was a joke.

    Quote from Enorym

    Maybe you don't know about the episode with Travuersa that happened in this very thread. I believe every page in the episode that included a post from him had been removed. He caused extreme chaos, nearly killed the thread. If I recall correctly, two moderators had to come by, and even then it wasn't fixed. He directly insulted furries on numerous occasions, claimed everyone in the thread was into NSFW stuff and constantly talked about it, attacked anyone who disagreed with him, reported several people, etcetera. It's why when I rejoined this thread and saw him posting I was worried. Seems it's already starting to happen all over again.


    Boy howdy, how badly do you need to lie?

    1) I didn't start the issue (someone else brought up NSFW).
    2) I never insulted furries.
    3) I got reported, not the other way around.
    4) I was accused of being into NSFW stuff, not the other way around (that's why the whole thing started).
    5) Afterwards, I apologized to the mod involved. He took it well.
    6) I did set several people to ignore, which is meaningless in the infraction business.
    7) I was attacked when people didn't believe what I was saying.

    Quote from Enorym

    Waskom is a dude. I dunno if you intentionally called him a woman to be insulting, but besides the point,


    My mistake. Happens.

    NOBODY wants you to do what you did last time you were on this thread.


    Nobody else seemed to care about it until Waksom brought it up...

    You said a LOT of unclean things, Travuersa. You denied it last time, too.


    You're remembering wrong.

    This thread talks about things that aren't related to the topic, yes, but people put things that are most definitely on topic in their posts as well. The first furry thread got closed because people weren't really staying on topic like that. A large chunk of this thread is also missing, because you brought the thread so off-topic it nearly killed it. A large number of people stopped posting altogether after you.


    I still didn't start anything. In fact, I brought the issue to the PM system. If you check YOUR PMs, you'll notice I did try.

    We didn't assume anything. You don't simply tell everyone on a thread that furries are obsessed with NSFW stuff and then say, "Oh, I meant the OPPOSITE of that. It's opposite day or something." That's basically what happened. You denied you said it and twisted your words. And, you're being a hypocrite.


    Your word against mine, unless you kept an archive of my exact words, which I'd love to see. Otherwise, you don't have legs to stand on and really should drop it.

    Waskom just now asked you not to start an argument again like last time. You just now got upset.


    Waskom told me to keep it clean. His quote now reads "Only going to say this once, keep it clean, like you have been doing for the past few hours. Do not go off topic like you did last time you were around this thread."

    I didn't see the "like you have been doing for the past few hours" bit the first time, and that radically changes the meaning of the phasing. However, that whole bit in his post is unnecessary if I have been following the rules.

    Quote from Waskom_Frost

    First of all I am a MALE not a female.


    Ok.

    Second you had to be warned by mods last time you came here to stay on topic.


    Nope.

    Third, you started talking about NSFW topics to try and annoy everyone here last time you came on here.


    As stated above and thought the entire cluster­, I didn't post anything NSFW. You don't believe that was I said ("But... why?") was a joke, so everyone assumed I wanted NSFW content. I didn't. You assumed wrong.

    Yah, what is that supposed to mean?


    It means "Why did you even post that the content was SFW? If it's NSFW, just tell a mod. We don't need to know your analysis of it."

    Quote from Waskom_Frost

    Only going to say this once


    How scary. A non-mod saying she'll only say something once. It's almost like nothing will happen if it gets said again.

    Quote from Waskom_Frost

    keep it clean


    I didn't say anything unclean. I DID post a picture of Quagmire, but Quagmire making you think unclean things is not my fault.

    Quote from Waskom_Frost

    Do not go off topic


    Kinda like trying to threaten someone the same rank as you? That's kinda off topic, don't you think?

    And besides, where do you get off just telling me to not go off topic? This entire thread frequently goes off topic. Why not yell at everyone?

    Quote from Waskom_Frost

    like you did last time you were around this thread.


    It's not my fault that people, including you, on this thread got way too upset over literally nothing after they assumed I meant something and disregarded my disclaimers.

    PS: You should have said 'You're either smarter than Einstein or Hawking, (insert text here)'


    No. That makes it "You.IQ > Einstein.IQ || You.IQ > Hawking.IQ", which means you are smarter that at least 1 but maybe both.

    "You're either smarter than Einstein and Hawking, or your test is just flawed." means "You.IQ > Einstein.IQ && You.IQ > Hawking.IQ", meaning You.IQ > BOTH of them.

    They're both valid, although redundant and mean different things.

    Quote from Mage_of_Cats



    Look at what I found! That's epic...

    Hopefully, there is no NSFW content hidden in the picture. XD




    Quote from Mage_of_Cats

    ... Is anyone there?
    You know what, we need to do a group picture of sorts.

    See, we should have a picture template online, I would draw my fursona. Someone else would draw their fursona on the same thing... we would pass it around until everyone here had drawn their fursona!
    Then we could start a new Furry Thread that actually has it's owner ACTIVE so that we could post it on the first page!
    That'd be fun! :D


    Not everyone has a fursona though.

    Quote from KaBling

    Well...

    Stretches SFW. But, is otherwise good.




    Quote from NItrousOxide97

    What do you mean by "stretches"?

    New topic: When having babies, would there be inter-species relations? Would the babies be... like... a mix of the two species? Would they be human?


    Well, the many species that can interbreed with other species (although can't produce fertile offspring) DO mix various traits. However, I doubt furries would have enough DNA similar with humans to be able to produce any offspring.

    Would babies from anthros/zoomorphs be outlawed due to the fact that the baby doesn't get to choose whether or not it wants to be a... (zoomorph if it's born a human, anthro if it's born a furry... paradox due to the fact that, as a human, it wouldn't need to make the choice. As a 'furry', it would 'have' a choice, so to speak. This means that I cannot use any word except for furry, which is a species-neutral term in terms of anthro/zoomorph.) ... furry or not?


    White people don't choose to be white either.

    Plus, would they need special food? And wouldn't the... birthing procedure be out-of-wack due to the fact that the female anatomy would be different? How would babies even grow? Would it be different than now? Or would the functions be the same, the appearance different?


    Female anatomy should be fairly similar since they would most likely be in the same biological family (not that a family distinction is important: more that the most recent common ancestor is more recent).


    Darn you, theta binaural waves! Darn you!

    I get the weirdest feelings whenever I see furry art and such.
    It really makes me depressed because I know that I will probably never be who I want to be.
    And then I'm all confused about other things and I actually become depressed.
    But then I forget about it... leading to me being 'YAY! IMA KILL YO' WITH HAPPINAHSS!!! Oh wait. I'm not a zoomorph.' *Begins crying*.

    This is just... sad.

    Gentlemen. You're all either playing cruel jokes or you're all just ridiculous.


    I know that feel, bro.

    I try to warn Spartan in the least obvious way so that nobody else would notice and slip their cursor over the infraction button, then suddenly the 'bias' factor kicks in and allows everyone to just scream at me as if I was some puppy, while having the support of others to do so, leaving me having to stick up for myself.

    This is what usually happens: I get screamed at, more people join in to get rep and make themselves feel superior.

    Sometimes, I don't even know how to react at this community. It just dumbfounds me that people around here are willing to dump people in front of trucks for their own good. I try to do something good and then some stranger just chops me in half.

    Not only am I doing bad, but I'm being forced to do bad. Hippocrates.


    Well, if you remember from last time anyone said anything about NSFW ever on this thread, two entire pages were removed and my ignore list grew by 4 names. (For anyone who wasn't around, someone said "Keep nudity out of this" and I replied "But, why?" and that caused what could be best described as "hilarity". Seriously.)

    Most furries feel like they have to run away from the NSFW content of the fandom. They get violent when it's mentioned because it's a stigma that has been associated with furryism. The mere mention of the term in any 'furry' context makes them feel attacked.

    Strong language IS in fact, NSFW, because it's NOT SAFE FOR WORK, unless you happen to work at a bar or something nonsensical where that term doesn't apply. Anyone who doesn't want you to use that term is hiding from their insecurity or is trying to censor you.

    Take it from me, being in your shoes: ignore what they say. Just let it go. So what if someone else got internet points because of a hive-mind mentality? It doesn't matter. Remember that going against the grain of a points-biased community will always result in actions such as these.

    posted a message on Odd Frame Rate Locking (VSync isn't enabled)
    If it's dropping to 30 fps, then there is some v-synch happening. Perhaps it is within your graphics card. Which graphics card are you using? It's probably integrated.

    The fact that it's dropping anyway: If you have a Windows 7 lappy, you should try changing your power options:

    Click the battery symbol in the bottom, righthand corner.

    "More power options"

    If you're on "power saver", switch to one that says "balanced", "High performance", or anything that sounds more powerful

    If this is not the issue, i.e. you are already on "high performance", click "change plan settings"

    "Change advanced power settings"

    You might have a "graphics setting", mine says "Intel(R) Graphics Settings" Make sure they are set to "Maximum"

    Under "Processor power management" there are several options. Make sure "Maximum processor state" is on "100%' and "System cooling policy" is on "active"

    That last step most matches your problem description. If it's not on "active", that means your PC is throttling your performance to save on fan noise and power consumption.

    Lol.

    Backwards compatibility isn't some easy thing. The PS3 had the emotion engine built in to the thing to ensure backwards compatibility. You have to go out of your way in with great cost to make something backwards compatible, or not advance your system architecture. It's just generally a bad business strategy.
