How it started with furries throwing a fit
Complaining about violating the rules in the expected fashion and getting kicked out
The furcon vibes were off via blusky and telegram . So people are were reminded to follow the rules & the staff feedback panel was canceled
We have had reports of issues with the standard of behaviour displayed across the convention.
It has been the minority but we wish to take this opportunity to remind our attendees to abide by our Code of Conduct.
For any social gatherings in your accommodation, please can you keep these to sensible levels. As an example, 10 people in a 2 bedroom accommodation would be excessive. Please ensure to keep noise levels down after 10pm and enjoy drinks in moderation.
Please take the time to review the Code Of Conduct

Good use of Good Morning! which should have been followed by "I hate con goers"
Good Morning!
Just to inform everyone, that due to staff unavailability we are cancelling the staff feedback session today.
We recognise the requirement for feedback, so we will be setting up forms via our os support ticket system post con.
We also want to apologise for unavailability of our systems currently. This is due to technical issues beyond our control!
Thanks!

And y'all wonder why the fandom gets a bad rep? π get a grip
Vibes check- people are persecuting furries!
Furcation has been a weird one this year. It's been good overall :3 - but I put that largely down to the friends I got to meet and chill with. (cont)
I know the furc staff work their balls off, so this is no criticism on the hard work they have put into making the convention happen. This year, however... the vibe just DIDN'T feel right. I doubt any official announcement will happen, after the mass purging cover up. But everything was just - off.
I feel like the park didnt want us there. Lot of little things, too many to list, all adding up to what I believe was a prejudice behaviour towards furries and the wider culture of the fandom. I have left feeling like the venue doesnt want us thete, and Furc has not been handling the fallout well.
The last couple of days, there was massive amounts of anxiety amoungst congoers, including myself. As we got fed outright faulse info, leaked internal details, exagerated butthurt memes, and observed an almost a militant approach towards curbing 'non family friendly' behaviour, even in private.
It might be a misguided understanding of what truely happened, but i feel like this all could have been handled and communicated significantly better, and never should have escalated to the blizzard rumour-mill outcome that it did. I do wonder how much Furc's hands were tied just to keep PD happy.
I do hope things recover for Furcation. Their reputation has taken a bit hit, and I would personally love to continue attending and supporting Furcation... ... Im just really unsure how much i'd be willing to go back to THAT venue, given how PD have behaved towards us, over the behaviour of a few.
Finally the Hotel strikes back.. Basically you're gross, you break shit, you collectively can't behave, we hate you, our guests hate you, we will never associate with you again.
Inshallah, they shall never find another venue

Furries somehow managed to make getting banned from a hotel for too much drugs and s*x into something gross and sad
