FA has had aload of issues recently. DDoS attacks, the tornado, now this.
But without FA, hackers would end up DDoSing, InkBunni or SoFurry because it'll become too big and then they'll focus on this site.
FA unfortunately is the centre of the fandom's artwork without the site, Furries will be divided a bit without it.

so its kinda a double-edged sword. for now see FA as sheild for furry sites or an example of not to do if you ever run a site.

It is unfortunate but the furries are already divided on some level. They have to use inkbunny for cub, they have to use FA for humanXfurry (Httyd) and Sofurry for anything that is furry and cub... (shippo). The only website that allows everything to my knowledge is fchan.. which.. can be abit... strange sometimes..

It would be nice if there would be one site where we could post EVERYTHING.. but I guess that is getting abit beyond the scope of this post.

IB is, but the slow page loading drives me crazy

IB loads fine for me, so does FA, SF loads the slowest for me

If I am using SF Beta 2.0 it loads amazingly fast, otherwise Ver. 1.0 is slow. IB is slow when loading pages with images and tons of text

I get quite a load replies and stuff on SF when i upload stuff (more then IB and FA put together, which is kinda weird, they must really love my colouring work)
i have had some issues bulking uploading my work, like it cannot find the ID.
and also ALL the replies on my artwork doesn't show up, so i don't see all the replies.
Don't worry i have submitted tickets for each issue so they are working them. unlike....

Well... the more that needs to be loaded the slower it's going to be. I'm curious what kind of hardware you're running. o.o;

Something like this, SHOULD BE ANNOUNCED BEFORE YOU MAKE THE CHANGE!!
It wouldn't be so bad if they said "oh, we are adding something to the site to get a bit of money for the site like a donation thing" then explained it to us and have an opt out option.
nope they adding it without consent and then when someone noticed it they went and changed TOS and others things to cover up their mistake.

sorry for caps its a copy and paste "THERE IS NO REAL WAY TO PERMANENTLY OPT OUT OF THIS SERVICE. THE OPT OUT USES A COOKIE TO TURN THE FEATURE OFF. IF YOU CLEAR YOUR COOKIES THEY TRACK YOU AGAIN.! THIS INFO HAS BEEN CONVENIENTLY LEFT OUT OF DRAGONEER'S POSTS AND THE TOS"

Get firefox and block the script using the add-on "NoScript"
Not only will it block scripts from running without your consent, it can also help protect you against hijacked websites and from contracting malware onto your computer. :)

LOL saw this through a wide range of sources XD lulz here FA etc. and i find neer to be trying to back away as fast as he can without having to answer questions directly, he seriously needs to pass the site along have someone else deal with it who can, and due to him and sciggles little internal dramas i think it would do good on both of them if they just supported themselves and stopped actng like power wont ruin their relationship.

I pulled all my stuff from FA a long time ago. Though, I still kept my account so I could browse the artists I watched there. Now, I'm completely done.

Sadly its a illegal act by US Federal Law however most members of Furry sites have no income to throw to a Lawyer to bring this to Dragoneer in court. It would put a serious hit on FA and his net worth of FA being last stated at 65K a class action lawsuit would clean him out of everything if a good lawyer could prove that the VGlink was running for 5 days and the TOS never informed anyone.
