What I learned;

EVERYONE on this board will brag about how amazing their group is and how everyone they play with is a genius as well as a profession improv actor, their DM is the envy of everyone in the hobby, and their campaigns are legendary stories that have drama and emotion and make great tales.

Every single one of these people is lying, and the truth is that them, their group, and their games are all shit, they're just too retarded to know the difference.

speaking as someone who is involved with the printing side of furry porn, the artists charge more when you ask them to draw stuff that is not their fetish. Some artists will just flat out refuse to draw things that aren't in their particular wheelhouse. And furries, desperate furries, will pay for it.

They appeal to that type of person for some reason.
Probably because they're non-Japanese speakers who have immersed themselves in another language to sate their fetishes. And the people who like to problem-solve and play pretend tend to really like linguistics for some reason.

So you're a masochist then? I mean hey, more power to you anon, but I really can't help but liken dealing with furfags degenerate enough to commission porn to be akin to dragging one's dick through shattered glass. bullet ants, and rubbing alcohol.
