knotty.me

Over the last month, a new zoo community has sprung up that's quite different from the rest I've seen.  It is in its infancy, but I'm writing this post hoping that it continues on the distinguished road that has presented itself before it.  You can consider this a hearty recommendation.

A little while ago, I tore apart the zoo community, mostly that of Beastforum.  A little while before that, I also tore into EFA.  These communities, which have been prevalent at one point or another, have incurred my wrath for two separate reasons.  Beastforum is a junction of pornography and abusers.  EFA has done all the wrong things in trying to accomplish its mission to achieve zoo rights.  Both communities, along with the admittedly better ZoophilesForum and every other zoophilic community out there that I have seen, are also victims to the internet imbecile, who is shockingly common and makes that guy you heard rambling about grocery stores and government conspiracies on public transit seem calm and enlightened.

On the other hand, knotty.me is a new and small community so far entirely made up of insightful and romantic zoophiles, despite its name (which was chosen because it originally was going to be a porn site, but things changed and it was realized that there is a high demand for a site that is explicitly non-explicit).  I've barely even seen a typo there, let alone a statement that makes me want to throttle someone.  Porn is without exception outlawed; if it's something someone might conceivably masturbate to, you won't find it here.  Instead, you will find discussions on animals, support, news, and places to exchange experiences and advice regarding being an individual in one of the world's most despised minority groups.  Not to mention that the people there are genuinely friendly and supportive.  It's young yet, but in the month since its formation, and with nearly 100 registered users (and a high of 20 on at one time) there has yet to be anything even reminiscent of online drama.  And should there ever be, I feel the administrator is quite adept at managing not only the forum's software, data, and your privacy which is stringently kept, but also the community aspect of the forum.

So, if you're one of the many who have been groaning at the fact that everywhere you go on the internet that advertises itself as a 'zoophilic' community is full of idiots and genitals, and you would give anything for some pleasant, clean, and intelligent conversation with some friendly fellow zoos - or maybe you're reading this and just wondering if there are zoophiles out there besides me who are funny, clever, and incredibly handsome - you should definitely give knotty.me a look.  And maybe, if the forum continues to thrive, we'll eventually get that much-needed name-change.
