Furtopia

Furtopia is a furry webhosting community owned by Gene Angel (WhiteShepherd) and has existed in part or in whole since 1998. The website itself hosts a variety of crap, including an IRC Server, MUCK server, forum, paintchat, and various other shit like a radio show.

Forums

The Furtopia forums cover many aspects of a furfag's life within the furry fandom. Various ares include:

"Lifesylers" - The furfags that claim to be wolves and want to end up being like stalking cat in a few years. Home to the many "Do you wish you were an anthro" topics.

"Furries on Furry" - Where furfags talk about what furry means to them. Also home to many "Are you in the furry closet" and "is it okay to have a dozen murrrsonas?"

Kathera Lockharte also has her little area in the Art section.

The Night of Goatse

Furtopia's forums had many flaws besides the fact that IT WAS A FORUM FOR FURRIES. There were a few very large security flaws with the system as well, apparently running on a 5-year old version of their forum software. Essentially, the security hadn't been updated in half a decade.

One of the few awesome trolls within the furry fandom exploited this. supercutefurri decided to single-handedly destroy the forum in all it's entirety simply for the lulz.

	“	99.9% of the entire attaxx and database zipzip happened the Night of Goatse. this was BEFORE the very first that LOLFurries ever heard of it. it was already GREAT SUCCESS before anyone could do a thing about it. well that's not exactly true, since it was a FIVE-YEAR-OLD SECURITY FLAW with FIVE-YEAR-OLD PUBLISHED PATCHES AND UPDATES running on a server COMPLETELY WIDE OPEN WITH NO PROPER OS ACCOUNT OR DATABASE RESTRICTIONS. lol you guys yall c'mon now it wasn't even a good hax0r. asking for it, perhaps? you should be glad it wasn't someone who actually hated you :P.	„
