Of course Astral is doing a baby tantrum and playing Karen about people who care about their community. There's no actual case and you can call him a nazi to your heart's content.

GSFTW board don't get how over it is. Everyone has seen how they handled Dashing's bullshit and the nazifurs with utter subservience. They are incapable of detaching from fatal liability.

"No, we'll actually do real action this time and stick by our word without reversing it again, this time will be different, we swear, trust us". Instead of just not inviting Nazis and saving themselves from self-inflicted destruction.

ConFurmed Events recommends not supporting GSFTW x.com/ConFurmedEve...

A tipper sent archived chat with Peter/arcticwindsphoto/Flynn, the GSFTW volunteer interviewed on Fox News and welcomed in their groups. The chat questions Peter about doxing other furries on Kiwifarms.

GSFTW has deleted their January promise to ban hate group members, at some point recently, while they also recently removed such bans without explanation and caused the storm of protest about mismanagement. This was deleted from Twitter, and their announcement channel was entirely deleted as well.

GSFTW also reopened their locked Telegram chat to a storm of protest. They are attempting damage control again, by having Dashing announcing leaving (again), with no explanation for the mismanagement decisions or how he will transfer his ownership of the con.

For damage control, GSFTW belatedly removed chat member W0nder again (after lifting his ban without explanation - why?) W0nder is a personal friend of con management. He says he was banned for "being Republican" when he had posted about wanting to ram protesters with his car and being transphobic.

To back up W0nder being friend of con management, posted after his first ban that was mysteriously lifted without explanation to everyone who would have to put up with him.

From GSFTW chat: a powerful message summing up how much the members feel failed by managers who favor problematic friends, instead of community interest. (Needs documenting in case of deletion.) Shy Matsi, now assumed leader if Dashing leaves, has been silent to all concerned.

The powerful message to management emphasizes that all concerned are PAYING supporters who deserve answers. Meanwhile, despite departure of vendors and GOH's, the non-updated website is now falsely advertising those attractions to those who might pay to attend.

"you've lost both GOH"

Shy Matsi, the silent GSFTW chair who acts proxy for his friend Dashing, is being scrutinized for a history of favoring problem people. Shy harbors multi-convicted sex offender Growly in his hookup group Furries Xtreme. "There are people so toxic that if you allow them, everyone is gonna leave."

Today: Growly present in the Furries Xtreme hookup chat of GSFTW chair Shy Matsi.

This is live-skeeting the collapse of a con, with management who aren't ready to admit it's dead by self-inflicted incompetence, negligence and corruption.

Incredible things coming out in GSFTW chat. "Here’s Shy Matsi’s fellow admin of FurriesXtreme stating that multiple people have asked him to remove Growly and he still hasn’t." - Shy's fellow admin: "People are leaving the group because of it."

GSFTW chat: "These are the types of people you allow in the fandom, with your spineless weak “can’t we all just get along” rhetoric." The results of high octane Geek Social Fallacy from incompetent management.

On Xitter, W0nder is still going about his recent re-ban, crying discrimination because places won't let him discriminate against trans people. (Telling us what "Republican" really means, ya think?) Revealed - the unspoken reason his friends in GSFTW management let him back in: they think the same.

I experienced Shy Matsi's Furries Xtreme site being used for revenge-porn by bad actors enabled by looking the other way. I believe what this fur says. bsky.app/profile/zero...

Speaking of ownership, here's opinion by the Chair of Furrydelphia about GSFTW damage control. x.com/Drayne_the_W...

On Xitter, Drayne's criticism of GSFTW is a target of attempted suppression. An argumentative community note was proposed that cites GSFTW's own ass-covering PR that landed with a flop. The note has not been approved.

Previous reporting mentioned that at the first GSFTW in May, panels hosted hostile/competitive language towards the other nearby convention. Now I'm getting tips that staff of Furrydelphia are being banned from GSFTW chat. The Philadelphia con staffs New Jersey furs sharing the same community.
