Is anyone else going? I bought my tix awhile back and was wondering if there is any other furs showing up?

Demi-Sexual - Fun first, flirt later
Foodie - Food Adventures constantly, not a fan of fish thoughI wont be a fur there (no suit yet) but I will be there! I’ll most likely either be wearing a horse mask or my green eared vest, and will be toting my fancy camera around 24/7 🙂 This is my first time attempting to take semi-pro level photos of a con, I’m excited!

Foodie - Food Adventures constantly, not a fan of fish thoughI HIGHLY suggest to any fur to avoid this convention like the plague.This is a for profit con run by Ryan Koph, who continue to perform extremely shady practices that give all other fan conventions (including MNfurs Furry Migration) a very bad name.

I guess I’ve never had any issues at Meta. This will be my 3rd year going, and I’ve always enjoyed myself. Sure it’s not as bid or well organised as the other ones I go to such as Animinneapolis and Detour, but I’ve never noticed any of the malicious or harassing stuff. To be honest, I’ve never interacted with much of the staff or attended the maid cafe, but as a casual guest it was fine.I definitely see the issue with such a crappy management, but at a casual guest level most of the issues are not seen or known. I will definitely keep that article in mind this year though, I trust the writers intentions, and kind of want to see some of it myself. I’m too curious. Maybe I’ll be extra nosy with my camera this year lol.
On a side note, I will now be cosplaying Mike from Attack on Titan!

I would suggest leaving drama for those who make direct contact with management for that Con, I refuse to be involved in any of that. Please understand that I did not bring this up as part of a advertisement!Electronic Music - EDM, Industrial, Synth

Just look around for a toy Bonnie with red sneakers and a black vest and that’s metoday I’ll just be in street clothes with a horse mask now and then, tomorrow I’ll be rocking the AoT cosplay 🙂Andrew -Â https://atomik.smugmug.com/
If you saw a guy in a horse mask and lime green vest with fuzzy ears at the rave, that was this guy!Andrew -Â https://atomik.smugmug.com/

Oh glad I didn’t go. Lookie: http://www.nerdandtie.com/tag/ryan-kopf/I think witnessed some of this. While I was outside Saturday evening doing my Attack on Titan photo shoot at around 8pm, an ambulance pulled up lights and siren and stopped about a block short right by where we were shooting. Then about 30 seconds later 3 MSPD squads came in really fast with lights and siren and pulled into the hotel entrance. We didn’t see anything after that, but that’ crazy.To be honest, something like that sucks, but it didn’t affect my con experience at all. Obviously those people are morons, and I would never support their actions, but I go to cons mainly for the social aspect, not politics. This year Meta mas a lot smaller than previous years, I’m guessing due to the holiday weekend and school starting.
I do wish someone better would take them over though, it sucks seeing stories like this come out of what I thought was a fun weekend.
on a better note, here’s a few pics from the improv photo shoot we decided to do much too late at night lol. I’m cosplaying Mike, the one with the blonde hair
