Rules for /fur/
Make sure to read the above, the only Global Rule that doesn’t apply to /fur/ is #4.
Below are a list of rules for /fur/ on Telegram, they can be updated at any time with notice given in the bot by a mod/adminsay.
-
Do not discuss topics unrelated to furries or the furry fandom. Some off-topic is allowed, but keep it short.
Topics such as politics, guns, and outside drama are NOT allowed and will result in the messages getting removed.
We have a bot for POLITICS over at /pol/, use that instead.

¹ - We allow feral as long as it isn’t realistic looking renders/media, human x feral or creepy looking.
² - This includes AI-generated media, discussion about it, or complaints.
- Adding to Global Rule #8, advertising other Telegram channels/groups/bots is not allowed.
Naming a channel/group/bot without the leading
@, as well as splitting up the name is also considered advertising (e.g. “it’s in furry lounge bot”). As an exception you may advertise a channel with furry art in (not a group but a channel!). - Do not complain about content you don’t like, delete it your side and move on. Everyone has different tastes. Any complaining (unless justified) will be removed.
- If you would like someone to message you, you can sign your message by starting it with
/s(e.g./s we should talk more in DM) and it will sign your username at the end of your message. Abusing this feature will result in a ban, we don’t want namefagging. - Adding to Global Rule #10, calling someone out will result in a cooldown given, this is an anon bot and we don’t care if blank fucked blank.
- We do not tolerate hate speech or targeting of users whether they are in the bot or not.
Mods/Admins have the right to remove content and give cooldowns at any time if you break the rules. These bots are provided for free and moderated for free by volunteers, treat them as you would want them to treat you.
