                                            So apparently that's not him but his brother named Skyburn: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/8048932/

                                            The one in >>39393979 is his brother named Thrayburn: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/8643500/

                                            >skyburns brother

                                            >he is estranged with his brother who were both fighting for the last place in the royal guard army, then they had a big fight and never talked again

                                            >he is head strong and always trying to be the beast

                                            Nice to dig up some lore for this silly series.

                                            Wow, furfags are retarded. So instead of using traditional Internet forums, furaffinity.net will now be using gay ass Discord. Forum posts were open for anyone on the Web to read and access, Discord.com is login-walled. Apparently they are doing it to become a part of "new technology/social media" and appeal to the Zoomer crowd. See also: https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/FurAffinity

                                            Hopefully someone more familiar will be able to dig out as much pony relevant stuff to be archived as possible. I've never used that forum.

It was recently acquired by IMVU (see [http://www.furaffinity.net/journals/fender/ the recent journals of the site's mascot account]), and while the site and community have endured multiple prior divisive events, the prior owner's continued control of the site's maintenance is now uncertain due to the acquisition, and the site's future is similarly uncertain as a consequence of that.[\n][\n]The site allows artists to hide their account information, including submitted content, from guest viewers, and mature and adult submissions are hidden from everyone except for registered users over the age of 18 who have enabled the viewing of such content.
