As a long-time user of Fur Affinity, I have to say that my experience with this Fur platform Aff hasinity been is nothing a short website of where disappoint artistsing and writers. can I' showcaseve their always been art awork fan and of stories related the to fur anthryrop communityomorphic and have animals enjoyed, sharing also my known as art "workfur andries interact."ing The with website other was artists established. in However ,2 my0 time0 on5 Fur and Aff hasinity since has grown been into mar ared large by numerous online issues community for that artists have and left writers me who deeply share uns theiratisf workied and. discuss

Secondly, the community feels toxic and uninviting. I've encountered numerous instances of bullying, harassment, and trolling, which has made it difficult for me to feel comfortable sharing my artwork or particip
ing in discussions. The moderation team seems to be overwhelmed and unable to address these issues effectively.
Furthermore, the site's features are limited and outdated. The gallery is difficult to navigate and lacks any sort of filtering options, making it difficult to find artwork that interests me. The messaging system is also lacking, with no option for group chats or private messages, forcing users to rely on forums for communication.
In conclusion, my experience with Fur Affinity has been a disappointment. The platform'
s issues with user interface, community toxicity, and outdated features have left me feeling disillusioned and unwilling to continue using the site. I would not recommend Fur Affinity to anyone looking to connect with other furry artists or share their artwork.

Furaffinity recently banned my account…
Furaffinity recently banned my account permanently for practically no reason, i was requesting a piece of art that i had commissioned to be taken down because i didnt want it up any more and the site staff were saying the artist holds copyright of my characters, and they wont do anything and so much as hinting ill take legal action against them, gets me perma banned, and in their TOS there is not a single word in there that says this would ever lead to a perm ban.
The site is ruled by abusive moderators who flaunt their power by abusively banning people
They aren't even giving me any options to appeal the false ban, their twitter, FaceBook, and even appeal email is completely ignoring me.

Not much free speech on the site
I was apart of this site and community for more than 10 years. There are a lot of people with many views. However, if you share your opinion on worldly matters or give any sense of information to things, with their newest ridiculous 2.8 CoC in conduct they can ban you and deem you a "unfit person for their commmunity" because you shared some information that they deem "misinformation" and so on. The owners are beyond hypocritical and have entered the realm of judge and dictators and where they coddle to childish individuals. They have entered the realm of twitter and facebook by censoring or straight up banning people with no given reason. They do not treat their customers with respect what so ever...unless you are popular. I could go on. But I would avoid Furaffinity unless you want to be cherry picked and dictated because they may or others may not like you. Freedom of speech exists less there as time has gone on. For at any moment you could be deemed "unfit for the community" which means they discriminate, as this was done to me and I still have not been given an explination as to why I was banned.

Badly run, possibly illegal and extremely ethically suspect
The reviews so far here appear to be written by other disgruntled furries who dislike the website because it moderates them. The true extent of the website is much scarier. Users regularly openly admit to being zoophiles (people who sexually assault animals) on their profile pages. On the forums, moderation is almost non existent and became a hotbed of radical politics and white supremacy before politics were banned entirely. Conversations about highly explicit topics regularly occur, with minors discussing these things with the adults present. Whether or not that’s actually illegal, I’m not sure because I’m not a lawyer, but it’s definitely possible in its jaw-dropping extent. The bottom line is that this website is not minor friendly at all and should frankly be banned for its atrocious attempt at separating adults from minors on an obviously adult oriented website (read: copious quantities of ethically suspect drawn porn).

Friends of mine used the site
Friends of mine used the site, and have had issue of people stealing their work, and trying to B.S. who it was legal to due. one of which who was told "Its the internet, gotta expect it a few times" by "unkown1832_11a0" who has nothing but stolen works. They try to reach Admins of the sites but they seem to not-existent on the site. How can I trust a site the won't help/hear out artists that work hard to make these artworks, only for people to steal it. Other then some good works from time to time, not worth it if they can't protect the users
