I can't believe they're even listing Furcadia AT ALL on this place--
or maybe what I REALLY CAN'T BELIEVE is that it has THAT HIGH a user rating!

Furcadia isn't a GAME; it's a graphical chatroom at best and an okay environment to run games IN. As in, freeform RP -or- Dungeons and Dragons or other tabletop dice-rollers. OTHERWISE, furcadia is a tool for interpreting something YOU want to build, like a castle or a town or even your own home; and the architectural capabilities of furcadia are REALLY LOW.

The downsides of furc are thus: there is NO system, there is NO organizatoin, there are NO RULES except 'don't grief'.

The downsides reduce furcadia to a clean slate of ZEROness.

But there are upsides; furcadia is an environment that covers a social and cultural niche.
If you have no imagination, furcadia will mean nothing to you.
If you have no patience, furcadia will mean nothing to you.
If you have no creativity, furcadia will mean nothing to you.
If you have no maturity, furcadia will mean nothing to you.
If you don't like furries, Furcadia will mean even LESS to you >.<

If you ARE patient, mature, imaginative, and creative, furcadia is a method by which one may give their fantasies a form, tell a story, or make friends. But it is a very undeveloped environment. Giving it a try won't hurt, but...

...you might not get much from it.

You get what you pay for people if you can't have an open mind to new things then I highly suggest that you go back and live under the rocks in which you came.  To enjoy Furcadia one must come with an open mind one that does not simply classify things into there lowest common denominator like most new people that set foot inside Furcadia.  Sure it is just a glorified chat room but is that not what most MMORPGs are just chat room that happens to have a game attached to it.  Please with all do respect I if I am wrong on this then please correct the statement that all mmorpgs are just chat rooms that happen to have games attached to them.

No, you are wrong. An mmorpg is a GAME with chat channels to talk to your teammates or others while you are playing the game. Otherwise, everyone would not care about the game as long as they could chat. If you like Furcadia, more power to you. But do not expect the majority of the people here to even consider Furcadia as nothing more than a chatting room for perverts and juveniles. how the hell can you have adult rooms with characters that are animals unless there is something fundamentally wrong with you to begin with? (This statement was toward the creators of the game and those who engage in the adult chat rooms, not you specifically,S1lentSam).

An mmorpg is a Massively Multi-player Online Role Playing GAME, not a mmorpc or Massively Multi-player Online Role Playing Chatroom. There's MSN and Yahoo for that::::07::

I agree with both of you.

S1lent was right to say that it is REQUIRED for someone to have an open mind and an active imagination to effectively appreciate furcadia. I would be MORE comfortable with agreeing with him, though, if he had slightly better grammar and spelling >.>

and Zorvan was right to say that MMOs are GAMES with chat channels tagged on.

I'm a little skeptical from personal experience about its pervert exclusivity though. I've found through my time there that Furcadia is composed roughly of 40% perverts, 35% people who tolerate the perverts, 15% people who are oblivious, and 10% griefers who revel in mocking the perverts, framing the tolerants as perverts, and chasing around the clueless ones with horror stories of the "75%" pervert population.

However, anthropomorphic charicters are as old as time itself. As demonized as they are by CSI and MTV and just about every 'normal' person out there, we are infested inextricably with FURRIES in our culture even without people who get a hard-on from it. Micky mouse? Furry. Bugs Bunny? Furry. Chester Cheetah? Furry. Felix the Cat? Furry. And those are the modern ones. Let's not forget nearly EVERY prehistoric pantheon. Egypt, India, Africa, Native America.

Furcadia is just a modern day extension onto it, and it's only a tiny sliver of the massive multi-million-participant mindset/community/sometimes-lifestyle that is the Furry Fandom.
(And this was all in response to "how the hell can you have adult rooms with characters that are animals unless there is something fundumentally wrong with you to begin with?" assertion)

However, I agree that furcadia is NOT an MMORPG.

Banned for the following reason: Trolling Gameplay discussion with his "Soe Sucks!" sentiment.

yes u need pateince but it is a MMORPG
u just have to learn the ropes and enjoy the virtual furries as they are.
Very helpful people you will find to help you learn how to get around.
Chat room, yes... mostly but there are visual virtial reality places that you can build.
Kinda like Worlds Chat ..sorta... and with furries

currently playing: World of Warcraft, DarkSpace.
Retired from: Star Warts Galaxies, Planet Side, Guild Wars.
Looking forward to: Warhammer, Age of Conan, Star Trek online

Oh, you're quite wrong there, the term "furry" is normally used to determine art in which people draw themselves and others as anthromorphic animals, furries are as likely to show you perverted things as manga drawers are (and indeed, what hentai is to manga, yiffy is to furries)
In the above sense you could classify most anthromorphic cartoon characters as furries, cause that's what furries in all essence are, characters that would fit into a cartoon (or manga/anime if you want, as many furries are drawn in the manga style)
I see furries to be perfectly normal people with a quirk for seeing themselves in a more beastly light, so to speak.

-Even samurai have teddybears and even teddybears get drunk-

Last time I played Furcadia (yeeeears ago) it was a MMORPG.
It's Massive,
Multiplay
Online
Roleplaying
and finally, it IS a game as it involves things like chess and other things.

So, why exactly shouldn't it be here? Because YOU don't enjoy it?


edit: and 'furry' doesn't mean 'beastiality' so, shush.


Played so far: 9Dragons, AO, AC, AC2, CoX, DAoC, DnL, DR, DDO, Ent, EvE, EQ, EQ2, FoMK, FFO, Fury, GW, HG:L, HZ, L1, L2, M59, MU, NC1, NC2, PS, PT, R:O, RF:O, RYL, Ryzom, SL, SB, SW:G, TR, TCoS, MX:O, UO, VG, WAR, WoW...
It all sucked.

true bout the horrible community i was bored once and thought hey why not some spots are so dead it was a virtual ghost town they had a mcdonalds and there was only one person there and they worked the drivethough and they sat there doing nuthing there was a comman to hocnk the horn i probadly honked about 20-50 times till i got a responce out of them and this was all it was "???" literally me and my friend went to another place and we got yelled at for followign rules it was a RP place and we RP'ed and well they weren't happy with the many funny jokes they have no sence of humor. so yeah i also searched the map to see where the entire comunity was and guess where i found them in the adult sections. sad truely sad. and yes i deleted it the verry next 5 mintutes i started.

Sorry, but I am not going to agree with Zorvan. As for people's comments of how unworthy Furcadia is to be on this list, keywords in MMORPG: Roleplaying Game. There is nothing in there that says it must have a leveling system or programmed in quests to do all day...

One could even argue that none of the other games on this list are worthy, since there's aboslutely little to no serious roleplaying in most of those games!

As for the 5 minutes then gone moment, to really feel and experience all the aspects in Furcadia, one most spend at least a few days on it. It is sad, but true, that the best roleplaying parts of the game are hard to come by, especially if they are without perversion.

Before I listen to any negative comment that someone has to say about Furcadia, they have to have absolutely no generalizations in their argument - and that is where Zorvan (sorry to pick you out), and most others, are at fault.
