The place to talk about anything just generally furry. If you have a furry-related thread that doesn't fit anywhere else, put it here! Just keep it clean.

Post by ArtyLoop »

Now I guess I understand why people say that site is not worth the time or trouble...

Down for pretty much the whole day.
Anyone know why?

It's not down.

Been getting Cloudflare 503's all day, and there's a post on the forum about it, when I click on that I am thusly served a 503.
But yes, I am going to listen to advice given, and abandon that site, its no good.

EDIT- it's back up now, but am seeing the Cloudflare "browser check"
I guess FA has been DDoS'ed again today!

Not only does it still exist, it STILL has the most traffic out of all the furry sites (as far as I know). I can't even make use of it because FOR SOME REASON I can't upload my story there anymore. >:[

Guess people enjoy non user friendly sites a lot. FA has become like a running joke when I play online and someone has any reference to an animal in their name I tend to ask people what's your FA
I think we all do xD
Anyway irrelevant to the matter at hand
