I guess mine would be to stay in touch with your online friends.

    I did not discover this fandom until I found alt.fan.furry newsgroup in 1990 or 1991. And at the time, I only knew of it for posting artwork or talking about furry comics. I had no knowledge at the time of furry cons. Had I known about the cons as well, I may have gotten into the fandom personally much sooner, before life got Too Busy. I also was unaware of FurryMuck, that would have been a wonderful thing for me to have joined and been active on. So all of my furry fandom time in the 90’s and 2000’s was just the newsgroups (until ISPs stopped carrying them and the dedicates furry newsservers like Critter shut down).
