thetruthbetweenI have mixed feelings about the community as a whole. I’m back being active on OKC, but who knows how long that’s gonna last. There’s this one little uppity cunt (sorry, but really, there’s no other word best used to describe her) who’s getting on my nerves on the forums. I’ve had to quote the rules at her and Sera’s had to warn her to stop baiting the mods. Too bad forums don’t have block features like Tumblr.
At the same time, tho, I like having that little bit of a sense of community. Very little bit, given the lack of anyone even remotely like me. But little bit all the same.
Of course, back to the con column, there seems to be an influx of fluffies. Particularly people who claim to be kin because someone told them they were, or claiming to be something that they’re obsessed about as well. Then there’s the one who said they started identifying as various animals ever since they discovered Otherkin. All manner of warning signs of non-legit ‘kin right there.
Just... ugh. I wish there was a forum that like, vetted its members first. “Are you obsessed with your kintype? Yes? No forum for you.” and “Have you identified as non-human since before you knew about Otherkin? No? No forum for you.” and “Do you believe you can p-shift? Yes? GTFO.”
