If not, the door is over there.
I must carefully admit that so-called Furry Ban created the precedence which ceased phase of light-hearted roleplay - making even the veterans leave the community which is now bound by stagnation, toxicity and restrictions. If you stray away from official roleplay even an inch, you are shunned by official factions - or even Devs - right away. I was victim of such a behaviour since I came back in November, being threatened with outright FR5 (twice) if I won't cease my roleplay because "you do not follow official way of OUR roleplay" - whilst I believed that indies are not really bound by restrictions maintained by the officials. Oh well, I though that being the indie had that advantage to shape roleplay one's sees it fit. The powerplay and ooRP hate between players and factions makes it impossible to enjoy Discovery again. This is not 2014-2015 period, which was my own golden age of Disco roleplay. The ruined roleplay due to toxicity I couldn't bear and resulted in 'furry' roleplay, following @SMI-Great.Fox's steps. While it is not the direct reason why I cannot roleplay humans leading into around dozen of roleplays abandoned since my return - it brought pretty much influence into that. That's why I can feel pretty much what Lyth noted in the his post. Discovery community swallowed that cyanide pill itself - but does not want to admit it.
