I’ve been a cosplayer since the start of covid. When you started turning up on my fyp a month or 2 ago, I joined the fandom a week later 😂 I’m going to start working on my spidersona in a month when I finish my other cosplays Thanks for inspiring me to join, Finn 😊
@@GuhnomeArt ayyy, would love to join, I'm making one based off of the Minecraft skin I made when I was younger. I've kept on using it, and also updating it along the way. Btw, why did I find you here after researching gnomes all day? I literally just stopped working on my more Scandinavian gnome race for D&D lol
A few of my friends went to MFF flying in from California, I think MFF had a LOT of travelers. Too bad I missed it but I'm looking forward to FurtherConfusion in 2024
Met you at the con and took a picture, love your stuff! It was my first convention and I absolutely loved it, definitely going to the next con I get the chance to!
“A tangible influx of new furries…” **Tips cap** Sadly I probably won’t be able to attend a con (or furmeet) for at least a good few years, but man do I love watching the footage!
In my case, I am from another country. It's always been a bit hard for me to pay for such things. Now that everything seems to be getting better, I have been able to attend both MFF and FWA :3 Hope to see you at any of them for a photo!
It was actually insane there this year. At peak busy hours it felt claustrophobic in the hotel lobby AND con center. This was my first convention with my fursuit and it was incredible 😁 I ran into a bunch of new furs and international furs. I overheard some german and french. So yeah, your theories sound solid .
Well.. I would love to go :( Well.. I'm a young fur and i'm Not allowed to travel. I joined the furry community in the almost start of the pandemic, like in february, 2020, three years ago I already know a lot of things but no t everything how old members know! Heh! How I said, i'm a young fur, 'cause i'm 11 years old. I love the furry community! It.. It just enterntained me in a way that you Don't Know! Hugs from Proto-Meekah, Brazil!
It was my very first one ever going since I'm a recent new furry and I can say it was amazing and so much fun, I'm glad I have joined the community and now can consider myself a furry, can't wait to try and get a suit. 😊
I come from Mexico, got more into the furry community this year thanks to twitch. It was scary but I'm so glad I made the trip and will return in 2024... With a vengeance... Well more like with more money but, you get the point lol
As someone who unknowingly created a fursona back in '98, and actually discovered furry fandom communities by round '09, I gotta say it's been wild seeing the sheer transformation of furry culture. The gradual mainstream acceptance nowadays remind me of the late 90s to early 2000s shift that anime's American fandom blossomed, and that's a great thing to see/experience!
Hey here to pop by!! Ima a fello pandemic furry haha! Kinda had interest in it before but COVID defo gave me plenty of time to explore myself and my interests a lot more! And here I am a proud furry and happily in a gay relationship :D
I joined during after the pandemic but since I’m a little young I couldn’t go :( but I have to say since joining the fandom it has been an awesome experience
i definitely returned during the pandemic i was a furry during like 6th grade but kind of based on societal views on it shamed myself out on it but i got so bored
As a semi-local of the area, MFF is by far the easiest furry con to travel to. Flying? Just a short blue line L-Train ride there from O'Hare. Train? Again... Blue Line to Rosemont. Driving? Either take Metra to the Blue Line OR park for $15 at the con center. The con is so easy to get to in every way possible
That was the con I had a lil meltdown at bcuz of overstimulation, other than that it was incredibly fun, I went with my friend and it was nice. Although there was a lot of other furries there, not gonna lie about that one.
Im a lockdown furry lol, i joined during covid and have been a furry ever since, my sibling got me into it and abt a week ago they gave me their dino mask! Im so happy, it needs work like (its missing straps) but im so happy its such a cute mask :)
While not new to the fandom, this year I finally decided to attend a convention, since a lot of my VRC friends were going to be there. I also saw some other folks, and just missed meeting you (was just getting on my shuttle when i saw your recognizable yellow fur!). Perhaps next year!
You where the first furry that was on my for you page. I found you cool, more furry videos popped up on my yt from watching you, and I've just finished designing my fursona! Thank you so much! ❤
I didn’t become a furry during lockdown but about a year later I tested positive for the virus that shall not be named and I had to quarantine for 2 weeks, I knew about furry’s prior from 2018 and I didn’t have a problem with them, I thought they were cool. So during when I had to quarantine, on my PC I came across a furry video, I watched it and I went down a huge rabbit hole. Now that I remember it, I think to myself, “Well I sure wasn’t in Kansas anymore”
I was a new furry this year!! I don’t have specials for my fursuit yet, accept for twitter, but my suit is Ida the owl, ZeeKayArt made a video of me after this years anthrocon! I was starstruck when I went to anthrocon!! And it’s still technically been less than a year since I’ve started getting into the furry community, and I’ve made 4 heads, and have several others planned
My mom was going to surprise me by taking me to mff but she wasn’t able to get us a room booked for the whole weekend, we were going to have to have a different room each day.
Hiiii! I would LOVE to go to a con but I’m a younger furry and don’t know if I need to wait until older for an amazing experience at a furry convention to be able to have many great conversations with other furries or if a younger one could still have a similar experience to adult furries!
That attendance number blew Anthrocon 2023's numbers right out of the water. Have we gotten the point where some furcons might be...too big? Or are we in need of much larger convention spaces?
I'm sticking with local cons in my state before attending cons outside of my state. MFF I'm unsure about, but I might attend once; but I definitely want to attend AnthroCon one year 🦦
And it seems that Covid spread really bad among attendees. I’ve seen a lot of people testing positive after convention. Hope you’re feeling good and didn’t catch it!
I can go home from my brother's house and because his wife forgot sick from COVID Arizona discuss caught at the apartment at school so then she had to be according to you and at home I don't know if they get their shots but it's scary 💔😢🐾
so i have a question is being a furry like you think you're the animal you dress up as or do you just really just love that animal not trying to rude just wondering
Thank you for being very kind about this! (Unlike the people who send death threats and yk) furries are people who have a interest in anthropomorphic animals. A anthropomorphic animal is a animal that expresses them self in a human way, like standing on 2 legs, talking, or just having human expressions. Now you don’t have to have a Fursuit to be a furry and just because you have a Fursuit doesn’t mean you have to call yourself a furry. A Fursuit is just a form of cosplay. Hope this helped! 🫶
I know the furry fandom has been going on for like 80 years but I just wanna say 2019 was way different protogen’s never existed the fandom was probably only wolfs foxes or cats
I'm so freaking afraid of that if I went to one. I gotta watch out for that because I had covid at least 4 times already and it felt like crap and my grandma is 95 she could end up dead because of me. :(
Yo I found this awesome book called “the bible” you should try reading it, its amazing. My favorite part was in “leviticus 20:15” really changed my life 👍
Firstly what does that have to do with this video? Secondly doesn't it seem kinda messed up to kill an innocent animal because someone abused it? I mean screw those freaks who actually do that crap they are a disgrace to the fandom and the human race as a whole but why punish the animal? Thirdly Why out of all parts of the bible you chose the one telling you not to screw animals to be your fav? You have to be doing some questionable things for that message to be applicable let alone change your whole life.

That'll be interesting and cool to see
Spidersonas are cool, I might make one
@@Socksydeeryenaboi it would be cool to do a spider meet up then 🤩
@@GuhnomeArt ayyy, would love to join, I'm making one based off of the Minecraft skin I made when I was younger. I've kept on using it, and also updating it along the way.
Btw, why did I find you here after researching gnomes all day? I literally just stopped working on my more Scandinavian gnome race for D&D lol
@@SpiderSplash_ lol well I am an artist gnome on the internet
A few of my friends went to MFF flying in from California, I think MFF had a LOT of travelers. Too bad I missed it but I'm looking forward to FurtherConfusion in 2024

The covid outbreak was incredible at mff. Their vaccinations were on point but still an outbreak.
One of these years, that’s gonna be me attending as well o7
same

Hiii Finn!! I really enjoy your content and ur fursuit is super cool!
It's so amazing! I remember when it was just 900 back in 2010
The fandom must grow... It must consume the population... Soon, the entire world shall be confurted into fluffy degenerates >:3
RISE OUR FLUFFY, FEATHERY, SCALY COMMUNITY! SOON YOU SHALL JOIN US!
Already ahead of you on that one. Gonna get my first fursuit in the coming months.

i saw fursuits on my pinterest and wanted to have my own character! i’m really happy to be in the fandom now!! i’m working on my second suit!!!
Well.. I would love to go :(
Well.. I'm a young fur and i'm Not allowed to travel.

I've been sliding in and out of the fandom for years. Only recently have I said F it and jumped right into the rabbit hole.
I joined during after the pandemic but since I’m a little young I couldn’t go :( but I have to say since joining the fandom it has been an awesome experience
Wowie Finn! I was in the midest furfest all furries say hi to me!!! ❤❤❤
i definitely returned during the pandemic i was a furry during like 6th grade but kind of based on societal views on it shamed myself out on it but i got so bored
MFF was a blast! It was nice to see things similar to how I remember them being prior to the 'rona.
As a semi-local of the area, MFF is by far the easiest furry con to travel to. Flying? Just a short blue line L-Train ride there from O'Hare. Train? Again... Blue Line to Rosemont. Driving? Either take Metra to the Blue Line OR park for $15 at the con center. The con is so easy to get to in every way possible
Can confirm, im a furry as of 1 year after covid started. Im now dedicated to get a fursuit as soon as I can
Was great to see you at the con Finn! I hope you had an amazing time!
That was the con I had a lil meltdown at bcuz of overstimulation, other than that it was incredibly fun, I went with my friend and it was nice. Although there was a lot of other furries there, not gonna lie about that one.

I myself joined during covid, and I'm betting that your assumption that I'm not alone in joining during the pandemic
I’m tempted to go one day in the future though I’m from the uk and have to prep things like flights and such.
You where the first furry that was on my for you page. I found you cool, more furry videos popped up on my yt from watching you, and I've just finished designing my fursona! Thank you so much! ❤
Definitely an amazing convention, the zero flipper attacker and the constant firetruck and paramedic visits were interesting 😅

Omg!! You were ida? I LOVE YOUR SUIT!! 💜
That is incredible. I want to go next year in 2024 for sure. Working on my fursuit design now.
✨Wish y'all having a good day!✨ ^w^💖
My mom was going to surprise me by taking me to mff but she wasn’t able to get us a room booked for the whole weekend, we were going to have to have a different room each day.
your fursuit is beautiful ❤❤ your a kind furry guy ❤❤🎉 merry Christmas 🎄
I don't really have the things to make my fursona but my fursona is based off the boreal Warden from the roblox game creatures of sonria
The most insane part of it is that the attendance was more than furality aqua had, the largest vr con!?
That's wild. I wish I had not have had to work during then...
I joined last year ^^ never going back to being normal i love my beans and floofy tail 😅😂😊
Hiiii! I would LOVE to go to a con but I’m a younger furry and don’t know if I need to wait until older for an amazing experience at a furry convention to be able to have many great conversations with other furries or if a younger one could still have a similar experience to adult furries!
I have been seeing like every Twitter furry have mff in their bio and I wanted to go there sadly I can’t but one day I will go to a furry convention
me who missed it for the second year in a row, genuinely just gonna stick to MCFC, AC, IFC, n maybe will this coming year
And it was my first MFF >w< I AM SO HAPPY I attended and loved it so much
I was a new furry at Mff 😊 first furry con ever!
Wow. This con is so cool. I love it.
I said hi to ya on the skyrail or whatever it was called! Was super cool to see you haha
That's a whole army of floofs!
Some of my frends from here in Wales flew out to attend MFF this year ! :D
I thought you stopped uploading 😢 thankfully you didn't
I took a small break for MFF, that's all!
@@FinnThePantherok I'm just glad you're still uploading take as much breaks as you need 😊
@@FinnThePanther also can I draw fanart of you and post it on my channel?
Be careful all y'all! Drink plenty of water and take plenty of breaks! Stay cool 🥶 love y'all!
It’s a bit confusing but I understand also your suit looks different
I'm wearing my kigu in this video!
LVL UP Vegas isn't a Furry Convention in the conventional sense, but it draws in a large furry crowd.
I wonder how many of those people were there to buy from their favorite resellers at the dealers den
That attendance number blew Anthrocon 2023's numbers right out of the water.
Have we gotten the point where some furcons might be...too big? Or are we in need of much larger convention spaces?
I would’ve gone if I knew my parents were ok with furries 😭 (they hated furries before I fully explain to them what they are)
i definitely met people from Europe while there
I'm sticking with local cons in my state before attending cons outside of my state. MFF I'm unsure about, but I might attend once; but I definitely want to attend AnthroCon one year 🦦
It was also the first MFF that international furries were allowed to travel to the US
Okay, but why specifically MFF as opposed to, like, Anthrocon or something?
Me and my bf went, it was our first con
Finn I love your suit it is so cool. I jelly >:(
And it seems that Covid spread really bad among attendees. I’ve seen a lot of people testing positive after convention. Hope you’re feeling good and didn’t catch it!
Thankfully I did not catch it!
I was there! I hugged you.
I can go home from my brother's house and because his wife forgot sick from COVID Arizona discuss caught at the apartment at school so then she had to be according to you and at home I don't know if they get their shots but it's scary 💔😢🐾
your fursuit looks flammable i want to test it
Bro these have been used ever since 2019 and it became 2024, can we have something new for once?
Another victory for the og
Packing my suit case
Finn, do you do a lot of public speaking? You sound so comfortable speaking to us.
so i have a question is being a furry like you think you're the animal you dress up as or do you just really just love that animal not trying to rude just wondering

It's funny I managed to run into you and get a picture :D
I know the furry fandom has been going on for like 80 years but I just wanna say 2019 was way different protogen’s never existed the fandom was probably only wolfs foxes or cats
Going to be too many sick beans
I'm so freaking afraid of that if I went to one. I gotta watch out for that because I had covid at least 4 times already and it felt like crap and my grandma is 95 she could end up dead because of me. :(
There was one is Canada?
Pros and…. “Cons”. Accidental pun haha
I wish I could go 😭
I hate i saw you and didnt stop to say hi at MFF
Hopefully you can catch me next time!
@@FinnThePanther I hope i can next time!
Jeez that’s a lot lol
Its a lot of people especially when you staff the con it self.
You think TFF is going to just as big or bigger in March
Wow
I joined during the pandemic
