Howl the wolfdog Agreed. And to give a "don't" side to this subject, DO NOT LEAVE YOUR WALLET/ ID UNATTENDED! This goes for any personal item; always keep your valuables and personal information on you and hidden at all times! (The "hidden" part is especially important if your con is in a big city). Another thing I've found helpful is you shouldn't bring all of your money with you at once. Take a portion of it with you to the con so that A. If it gets stolen, you have extra at home B. You don't spend all of your money!

Situation; Fursuiter wants to head to headless lounge to cool themselves and rest, or overheating. Along the way, people stops fursuiter and ask for a photo. Fursuiter giving a clear "I need to cool myself down / I'm overheating" signal, but some people ignored that. When fursuiters give such signal because they're on the edge of collapse and need to rush to headless lounge, please respect that. You can take photos with them at some other time. :) This situation taken from Omnom's stream of his and Splat's experience at Texas Furry Fiesta 2018.

I have severe anxiety about stuff that you mentioned, and I do own a full suit. And let me tell you, it's the most terrifying thing in the world. So PLEASE ask for consent before you hug or directly interact with a suiter. There has been multiple times where I received a full blown anxiety attack and I had to leave an sit in the headless lounge for an hour or more. I am also very short for my age, and i am full grown. That also contributes . I'm a 5'2 male for those who are wondering. So please, ask for consent. Hugs, contact, photos, whatever. I'd be glad to hug you. Just ask and make sure I can see you. Thanks^^

Personally, I feel if you went as a group and plan to do something at a specific time, such as go out to eat, do not be the person who everyone has to wait on. It's okay if you change your mind so long as you communicate it, but the worst is when your group has to wait and put off their activity while waiting on the person not paying attention to time. Had a guy not pick up his phone for 40 minutes as we were trying to find out where he was so we could all get dinner together.

YOU BET hotels talk. I have a relative who is a hotel manager at a very large property. They actually talk to each other all the time. They have better stories than our "Convention Horror Story" panels. Help keep our fandom out of their bad conventions conversations.

I have never been to a furry convention, but i have seen furries in full/half suits in the cons in my area. I will confirm that the outstretched arms asking gesture does work! One thing to keep in mind for those who don't have a suit and are wearing some sort of makeup, when you hug, face your...face AWAY from the suit, cuz im sure the suiter will not appreciate your cosplay makeup on their $2500 shag carpet.

If you are suiting please make sure you have a handler even at a con. You may not be popufur but people will still swarm you for photos while you're in suit. It's also nice to have a handler at a con if you have extreme anxiety like I do. They're some one you can grab on to and let them lead you to a safe place when it gets to be too much. They're also usually in charge of the backpack filled with water, snacks, your wallet, your brush, and phone. So please please please take a handler with you if you're suiting it's honestly for your saftey.

theres 1 in perth this year my dude

one thing you did not mention.. about smoking.. DON`T Smoke just outside the entrence.. this is a big reason.. if you dont walk enough away from the entrance because 2 reasons.. reasons 1.. the fursuiters will come outside and explore.. when at MFF or Nordicfuzzcon. they go outside to cool down. if you stand there smoking cigarettes. walk a bit away because smoke stick to the suit.. if you are at Eurofurence. go to Biergarten. have a drink and smoke.. or just go to a local bar and smoke. reason 2.. when you smoke to close to the entrance. it wil be your fault if the smoke gets inside the hotel and setting of the fire alarms.. normally if you smoke inside a hotel you get a big fine. this may vary from hotel to hotel. at eurofurence 2A hostel. you set off the fire alarms you would get a 700 euro fine. and for gudness sake dont leave your cigarette butts in the stairwell of the hotel. they wont be happy. just like that time Kage found cigarette butts in the stairs of the westin. you can smoke if you want. however. just walk a bit away from the main entrance so it doesnt bother too many people

@kitschyliepard

5 жыл бұрын

reason 3: some of us have asthma and cannot deal with cigarette smoke at all and it's super shitty and it completely defeats the purpose of smoking outside if you're gonna force everyone to walk through your smog, anyways.

I went to tff 2018 with a suit and I couldn't handle the heat and I was depressed so we left. The next day I went without my suit and I had so much more fun. I saw so many suits and people of all ages and heights. Everyone seemed at home. That was my first convention and I had my suit on for maybe 10 minutes or less. Lesson: You can have a wonderful time without a suit

Guys, please don't touch fursuit props/cosplay props, literally any plush or thing. I have a little hamster toy because my hamster died while she was my best friend, and if someone would steal it/take it away, I'd really get anxious and depressed. Props can not be just props, but also really important items too. For example if someone would decorate an item essential for them to live, so it matches their cosplay ( for example an asthma inhaler) you may think it's just a prop, but it isn't! It's really important for them, because they may even die when they get an attack. So again, please PLEASE do not touch someone's "props". Thanks

I went to a anime con and had my ears and tail on. I walked into dealer den and this random Asian lady came up form behind her booth and yanked my tail really hard and held and and speaked it for 15 minutes while I was walking around dealers den. Needless say I. Had report her to con staff

Josh Peck 555 same here! Their motivation inspired me to make my suit! It’s still in progress tho :,)

I was at my first con a while back and people there were actually really nice and mostly respectful. Except for this one dutchie that actually legitimately made me so uncomfortable I went behind my freind, not even cute playing around "oh I'm shy and trying to be cute" no I legitimately was like " this person is scaring me please protect me." Basically, Me and my freinds were just walking around the con and the fursuiter kind of stopped looked at me, came at me with the whole "curious" act and when I backed up they kept following me and squeaking at me. My freind was like " oh do you want a picture?" But at this point I was literally behind her back looking at her with pleading eyes like "no please get this person away from me" I guess my other freind saw this and kind of drew the dudes attention away from me and was like " yeah I want a picture". After my freind who got his picture taken with the dutchie was like "the guy was telling me to hug him" and it kind of weirded him out and we all just got a really sour experience from it. Sorry for the long rambling but I guess what I'm trying to say is be respectful and mindful of people wanting to hug you/you hugging people/interacting with people whether you're the person in the suit or out of it.

Oof sounded like a pretty awkward experience. I feel like a special hand gesture may’ve worked but I haven’t learned any myself yet. I maybe would’ve made an X with my arms though and backed away. Still the guy should’ve picked up that you were uncomfortable

Something that you didn't mention that I think would be good in a sequel if you make one, is you could talk about young furs at cons

The people hugging without consent is probably the thing that worries me most about when I one day get a suit. Having restricted senses and not knowing whether someone is nearby waiting to pounce is very unnerving. I don't like strangers touching me generally, so a stranger touching me and my expensive costume without consent is a big no no.

Its good to hear most of the don't are just common courtesy things! I'm pretty anxious about things like this and have a hard time picking up social cues in most spaces, I'm so excited for when I can first go to a con!!

I was wearing a fur tail while watching this. I'm in the making of my fursona head

Plush backpacks that have the pocket facing towards the wearer are great for keeping your valuables(phone, wallet, keys, etc.) safe at conventions or anywhere else you will find yourself in a large crowd. Plus they look really cute!

Her: I wouldn't even wish con crud on my worst enemies. Me: huh? You have enemies?

Very awesome video! I saw my art right above pocari’s head (bright pink circle background)

A thing that's probably good to note; always approach a suiter from the front! We already have really poor vision from the head and if you have really bad anxiety, they won't appreciate a person just suddenly being there and it's worse if you touch them without them knowing

Thank you for the advice, Pocari! I only have 7 years left... YES! 7 years may seem like a wrong time, right? But for me as a 11 year old, loving the fursuit community, it's not that long! 2025 HERE I COME! ❤, BlueLeaf

There's a convention in France, the Furry black light, it's forbidden to -18 to go unless they have an authorization from their parents. I'm 16, and if I get an authorization from my parents do you think it's okay if I go there, or should I wait until I have 18 ? If I go I'll be with my cousin and 2 other friends, so I'll not be alone, but they'll all have +18 and many of the furries in this con are +18, so will I feel kinda alone ? ^^'

I have badges that have "selective nonverbal", "deaf- please be patient or louder with me(dont yell)", "ask for: hugs, instagram, commission examples and prices" ect. Also dont forget your room keys, id, character badge ect.

5:49 thats...so...CUTE❤

Any thoughts on mics in fur head? 🤔 Might be a future thing...

Aberguine of "Furries In The Media" pre-records her vocal tracks, then mimes to them on camera. She gets nice, clear recordings that way and her suit mouth doesn't move anyway. kzread.info/dron/yly7pcoKC-Nz2SC07NywKQ.html

WolfDY yes

Sooo.. I think I've seen you around in name or art. Crazy.. always nice to see another roo!

Tbh I'm tempted to get a shirt for when I get a suit, that says on the back "Please ask before hugging me", to remind people that this is important.

Awesome vid plus Australia rules

I just saw the cat in the background and it looks kinda like mine but I think mine is fluffier wOw

Having been involved in running a con I have to say the respect the hotel and guests one is really important. Nothing sours relationships faster than having other guests complain about the con-goers. On the flip side respecting non furries and, where they are interested, interacting with them is great! That family with the children should, unexpectedly, be having their best holiday ever. Fursuiter rooms are a particular problem for housekeeping. Even if it isn't the convention in the country you are in leaving a tip for the housekeeper really helps. Hotel Liason is an absolutely key part of convention organisation. They are often quite different from regular conventions and it helps to explain what to expect and work with the hotel to keep things running smoothly - it's a partnership. Little things from we will need all the towels - seriously, all of them, and given the chance furries will drink your bar dry - this is what they spent last year, and we have 15% more this time, so don't get caught short because everyone loses out if that happens. You know you are doing it right if by the end of the con some of the staff are wearing ears and tails! Oh yes, and on one occasion, commissioning a fursuit!

No one is talking about that cat in the backround… SO CUTE!!!

2am dubstep and 🐫 of absinthe.... That's a very specific point lol

Thank you for passing this info on. I'm part of security for many cons and it's great to hear someone letting people know what can happen and how to prevent anything from happening. You Rock!

Honestly if I ever saw you at a con is probably be super shy. If I had a friend or someone with me, they'd have to force me to say hi. If I had the courage of probably ask fira hug and thank you for all the furry and fursuit knowledge you gave me. I watch your videos all the time and love them

@Why ty!

Oooo This is rlly helpful since Im going to An open house thingy at a con. Thanks for making This video

Hey, I'm watching a Bottle episode the day of upload. Huh. Hi Roo!! Love your videos, they're always full of great advice and tips.

I would love to go to a con but I don’t think they have them where I live

That feeling when you realize youre 18 and need a job Then the persistent screams in head Sees Pokari ears 🙂

Ty for making this not only furry related but also working for non-furry cosplayers! :D

Thanks for the advice! Love ya!

Is it just me or is pocari ssssssooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo damn cute?! Love you!!

Can't get con crud if there are no cons :c

Hewo Pocari! I’m a BBIIIGG fan of yours! :3 keep up the great work on your vids ^w^. I’m a 10 year old furry, Ive been watching your videos for a while now! You have inspired me sssoooooo much! ^^

YAY!! Hi Pokariroo!

_But a barkeeper is a stranger too B)))_

Hello Pocari! Just saying but people keep on saying that all furries must die and I'm a furry...😭😑☹️

another great video ^^ i do enjoy your informative and light-hearted take on both the pros and cons of the fandom. not sure if and how you take suggestions for topics to make videos on, but I figure it can't hurt to ask ^^ have you done a video on proper livestream etiquette? i know a lot of furries who stream art or gaming sessions that would be a help to. if you haven't made a video for this, perhaps something to potentially consider? Either way, keep up the wonderful work, i look forward to seeing more from you in the future ^^

Thank you for making this, more people need to see these things. The last furry campout I went to was at the house of someone I know, but even there I ended up being rubbed On my belly without consent by a fur I barely knew, and I also ended up with severe con crud that landed me in the hospital! So I'm especially glad you stressed the points about consent and cleanliness :)
