VIERA AND HROTHGAR COMPLAINT MEGATHREAD

[Raskbuck]

My guy. These aren't furries for one single reason: They are cool. :3



They are the og beastial races of WoW! HOLD THY TONGUE, PEASANT!!!! >:O

Lol, in all seriousness though, my main is a male Worgen in WoW and I like that race, Tauren and Pandaran because of their respective lore and how cool they look. Plus? the Worgen can essentially function as their own ground based mount, running on all fours. I really wish Hrothgar could do the same.

I feel like there's a conceptual misunderstanding of what a furry entails. Some people tend to associate them with the cringy, overly cutesy anthropomorphic cartoon animals; meaning that anything that doesn't fit into that mold is automatically discarded by definition.

However, most people in the furry community would disagree with that definition. To them, a furry is nothing more and nothing less than the depiction of an anthropomorphic animal performing activities in a human setting. That would include Minotaurs, Werewolves, and anything else that fits that description. Including Worgens, Taurens, Hrothgars, Khajiit, Argonians (technically considered a scalie), and so on.

I understand the desire to be as far away from those furries we see doing things online that evoke second-hand embarrassment. But, much like every community has it's fair share of bad apples, a few actors do not define the genre as a whole. It would be like denouncing the concepts of weebs within the anime community, while saying you are not one because you only watch Dragonball, Pokemon, and whatever else is considered mainstream.
