Dear old Di once posted a story about kids turning up to school as furries, and as Arth said, it was total bullshit.

Although I can't see the threads anymore, I can still see the membership statistics. It looks like there has been a significant jump in active members, following years of steady declines. Maybe other people, like me, were pure lurkers and decided to jump in as members? A lot of members viewed threa...
