You're baiting me, Dave ;) Since you asked, my intention was only to agree with Furtech and Penh, that the practices of playing two sides is generally deplorable. Furtech and others have made the point that Doodles does this, and Penh mentioned that it would add Doodles to a list which already included SK, and possible you also. This is where I agreed. Many people have come to this conclusion, since you and he enjoy and live many of the very things that you lampoon, but seem to pretend to have no affinity for at all. While pulling the finger at fursuiters and others who enjoy furry art, you both enjoy your fursuits and have the same sort of art on walls that surround you, just like the people being ridiculed in your comic and your gossip. The only difference seems to be that you and SK are pretty and never fart, while the people you depict are shown as being not nearly as perfect or superhuman.
I was simply adding support to this, with a small anonymous hand clap or two.
As for goals, this entire thread and post is perhaps intended basically to express opinions and be mutually supportive, relaying our experiences with these types of people.
You make an interesting point about Franklin, but this is not as much about what there is to lose, as about what there is to gain. It would appear you seek to gain knowledge about a single indentity. You do not reply to the other's posts. You already know who they are. You are done with adding them to your list. I assert that our intentions are quite different, as the goal of this thread is to share experiences and support, while yours is to attain a name. I am not seeking a gain. Anonymity is satisfied with saving a life and expecting no reward, or leaving an estate to charity, without a name attached. It isn't about gain or cowardice, but if that isn't clear by now, I do not suspect I could explain it to you.
While you make an apology, and I'd like to accept it, I cannot be certain it's sincere. I've never heard any admission of remorse or enlightenment based on any questions to you or SK, merely asking, "why?". You and he have each other, and had many friends. Why can't you just live and let live? That is one point we all wonder. Instead it has only appeared that you defend your stances, and seek to add another notch to your billiard scores.
I suggest you not be as concerned with me, as with the bridges burning. If ever you discover the essence of why people are hurt by what you do, and endeavor to change, that would be a better goal that apologizing to one person. And if you and SK ever explain yourselves effectively, I might reconsider, but all indications thus far suggest that you are fine with your karma, and more than happy to follow the path you've chosen.
