Wasn’t there one convention that was turning people away for smelling too bad?
Don’t care whats it’s for, I want to go!
rainfurrest comes to mind, though there have been others that likely also qualify
I just cannot fathom it, I can’t leave the house without a shower, I just don’t get it
Depression.
I-iiiiiiii WANNA KNOW
I can say that my standards dropped significantly after being homeless for a while a few years back. The place I’m living in now just doesn’t get hot water in the shower. The depression certainly isn’t helping either.
True. Been to enough other cons. Definitely stay away from the gaming rooms.
I’ve been to a few myself, hooo yeah it can get pungent.
Gamer gravy
The one con I sent to smelled fine even in the gaming room, interestingly enough
Maybe it was just the size of the convention center (30 foot ceilings, holy volumes of air, batman!), but that was my experience as well.
I shower twice a year whether I need it or not and it’s not my problem if that schedule coincides with the furcon thank you very much.
Yeah, I cannot understand how people can go out into public spaces for prolonged periods of time without showering beforehand. Get your head in the game people! I can’t even smell and I know I smell infinitely better than those showerless people because I shower, use deodorant, and a little cologne, unlike them.
Cologne makes me nauseous. I hate when people around me use it. I prefer sweaty people
Being showered and cologne-free are not mutually exclusive.
No. Being showered is definitely my preferred state.
Fair enough.
but what if you’re a species that hates water, please be more considerate & inclusive /j
Yeah, where are the dust baths for chinchillas?
Shit, I never took the frothing at the mouth rabies-antivaxxer demographic into account before I posted this, fuuuuuuckkk
I had to check the date on this post due to the XIV avatar.
Definitely keep clean and use deo, but I remember the last major XIV convention in NA was so poorly planned out that it had massive lines of people waiting outside in the late July summer heat in Las Vegas. It’s a bit of an unfortunate situation.

Idk, compared to anime cons the furries are really good about following this.
