I've heard nothing but bad news about Denfur. Supposedly last time they had it, the hotel they used were total shit with people's reservations missing, bed bugs and other terrible decisions. Along with being part of the Corgi LLC (?) that is known for stealing money.DenFur has officially announced that it will be operating this year. A few key points:
The rules for the con include a requirement to show proof of vaccination, mandatory masks (including underneath fursuit heads), reduced room capacity, and mandatory 6 foot distancing (implying no hugs).
There's a new con chair, someone named Boiler. I've heard they're militant antifa but I don't have confirmation on that. They do have "ACAB" on their Twitter bio and in their official introduction as con chair, one of the only things they decide to tell us about themselves is that they're trans.

Hello all attendees & fans of DenFur!
I wanted to introduce myself to you all now that I am the new con chair for DenFur 2021! My name is Boiler (or Boilerroo), but you can call me Mike if you want to! I've been in the furry fandom since 1997 (24 years in total!) – time flies when you're having fun!I am a non-binary transmasc person...denfur.org
Oh look, Boiler is Deo-approved! That's a great sign.

(First time making a post like this, please tell me if I can improve.)
It's at a new hotel this year, so the past issues with plumbing, air conditioning, and parts of the ceiling literally falling down in the con space will presumably not be happening again.
All they have to do is invite guys like SonicFox as guests of honor. The stench of their suits will suffocate all the guests around them, suiters or not.
If it's a foam suit it's probably got years worth of bacteria and sweat baked into the fucking foam at this point anyway, so a little covid won't hurt.
Some furs are egotistical as hell. Skrat is a great one - There's a photo lurking around of his bedroom which had bedsheets and everything covered in his sona. It's like they build their own empire of self-merch and then bring it to cons to show it off. Plushies definitely cost like a bitch but the really high quality ones are advertised as 'not toys' in a similar vein to collectors figurines. If you break it or lose it, good luck. Shit goes missing at con hotels all the time. One con I went to many years ago had a guy manage to open all of the bottom floor rooms with a borrowed master key and two things went missing. Not of mine, but the suiters were raging.
So Denfur will be a White Zone convention? I keep hearing black people can't get Covid vaccinations because they don't understand how to get an ID.
It seems pretty simple to me. The owners and organizers of furry conferences support one group and not the other.
Wasn't the hotel like a bunch of villas? I remember seeing something like that and it looked halfway decent. also is there any evidence of corgi events stealing money? sounds pretty interesting and would not be surprised
Do you expect sick fucks to oust other sick fucks? Unless you are a close friend of theirs you will eventually be cannibalised by them to save their skin or retarded political disagreements
They don't care about zoos or pedos, but pointing out that vaccine cards are easily faked actually threatens them. First it makes a mockery of their rules, second it could potentially scare away customers. Corgi Events is for-profit, so even above the normal "keep the con alive" financial considerations, they're not going to let something go that hurts the bottom line.
It is absolutely nuts how people would rather shame each other and oust each other over menial political disagreements than severe sexual problems
I'm probably too naïve to hope that "don't let (convicted) sexual abusers and pedophiles into your con where children are in attendance" wouldn't be considered ideological opposition...
You are overlooking the fact that a lot of people seem to consider pointing out abuse deviancy or degeneracy like pedophilia to be a political attack or smear if it is done against someone they share even a passing similarity in political ideology. Pointing out a left-wing politician being caught in sick shit would be met with cries of "quanon! consipracy theorist! Nazi!" It's the same with interpersonal interactions now too unfortunately. The culture of "everything is political!" means any criticism of someone with this mentality, or anyone they like gets taken as an attack on their values, no matter how legitimate
It's a bit worse with furries because even before they started hiding behind political ideology, attempting to eject the unsavory parts of the fandom was usually met with cries of "fursecution" and other bullshit like that. Furries were always insular and mistrustful of gatekeeping, it just got turned up to 11 when they got subsumed into the woke mob.
I'm putting my money down on DenFur. They've already made a fandom-wide witch hunt because someone figured out that
The Corgi Cons are a mess of their own. I just wonder how long it'll take before some moron becomes chair of a big convention who has beef with other furries and suddenly a "legal" letter is sent out to said beefed furs and they're mass banned. It isn't hard to forge the fucking vaccination card and the fact people needed one furry to point that out is ridiculous.
I'm sure this already happens, it's just not made public.
