How far can RP go?

[Sarawr!?]

Well'p, here's my deal on this whole subject.

I'm not particularly "Into" furries, but hell, I've seen them in stranger environments than Disco (like, WW2 for example...) And I can certainly understand all the sentiments about Furries mixing into the Sci-Fi realm.

I for one wouldn't really be keen on seeing say 100 out of 200 people on the server playing as Furries. (i.e, I don't want to see everyone and their mother playing a furry in a Sci-Fi environment)

However, a handful of them won't hurt anything, and hell, As long as the people playing them can write up a story that actually works and makes sense within the realm of Science Fiction storytelling, I don't see what harm they are causing.

Again, I certainly wouldn't want to see a bajillion of them suddenly pop up all over the place, but if a small number of people creating working storylines then I don't see why we should be raging at them and slinging hate at them. They've come here looking for Sci-Fi RP, they just happen to be using Anthro characters, As long as they have a working explanation for how they got that way, I don't see the problem. So long as they don't start to you know...outnumber the average humans in Sirius, that wouldn't be right..

Additionally, I'd like to note that while I think furries in space are acceptable so long as they're not EVERYWHERE, they should also expect to be treated with a degree of suspicion, curiosity, xenophobia, mistrust or outright hate, by the majority of Sirian Humans, unless they manage to build up friendships or relationships with people, get people used to their presence.

They shouldn't expect to be interacted with as if they were 'normal' right off the bat. Humans fear what they do not know, it's true now, it'd be true in 818AS, it's in our nature.
