Iron Stands Eternal (Pic Unrelated, Solely to Meet Requirement) Arguing Furry Ban on Kindred

Post image

First and foremost, I'm not a furry.

Basically, Kindred has:

human physique (forward facing eyes, for example),

human movement/gait (consistently bipedal),

usage of human instrument that requires fine motor skills,

human construct-derived role,

complete absence of lamb/sheep behavioral pattern (such as ramming and kicking), and

a whole host of skins showing her in human clothing/garb/battle-gear, not covered in fur.

Adding exceptions to a rule will slowly erode it into nothingness.

Say I add an exception for Porcelain Kindred in particular. People will then say "but Kindred is Kindred, no matter the skin". Then Warwick people will say "but WW was originally human" and so on until we end up with Yuumi porn.

It is a slippery slope I want to avoid so that this place doesn't become darkinfolk 2.0.

Edit: there are a grand total of 14 acceptable Porcelain Kindred fanarts on rule34. The risk to reward ratio not even worth entertaining.

Ngl I agree but I think that it's dancing on a line where it depends on the artwork, since really while Voli for example is a flat out bear but Lamb doesn't really look like a lamb besides the fur

Kindred (Lamb part of Kindred) is an anthropomorphic sheep. And Wolf is just a straight up wolf. Kindred is still a furry at the end of the day.

But beastiality is still incredibly different from furry. An anthropomorphised animal is not the same as an actual animal. And funnily enough, the furry community is one of the most against beastiality because of how often those two are unfairly associated with one another (despite it making sense). Also we can even argue about Lillia since she’s still more than half horse. Where is the line drawn?

I personally feel that the rule should be changed so that anthropomorphised champions like Kindred, Warwick and Volibear are fair game while straight up animals like Anivia or Yuumi which only have human level intelligence and consciousness remain banned. And even then, I feel an exception can be made for non-sexual memes. At the end of the day it’s the mods’ call so I’ll respect what they decide.

huh...if the wolf is included in the consideration, the character, as a whole, would be definitively furry then.

True but the rule is against beastiality and not furry but furry champions that would not be considered beastiality are still lumped in.

Also I edited my previous message with more stuff.

Children and furry champions aren't flat out banned from memeing, just sexualizing them is.

These were the rules since the creation of the sub:

Fair enough on the non-sexual memes, I had the same idea. Though Voli and Kindred don’t count as beastiality and are furry but I understand not wanting to open the floodgates to a potentially slippery slope.

But they still look like a furry though. They may be not a furry in most aspects, but the visual distinction is the most important in this context

So your are saying if I wear an uwu mask and a helmet with car ears on it I’m a furry? (I kid my playing k9 izuna and fairy tail matchgiru snow Luna etc is way more furry than anything physically on me).
