So in the end there would still be people that are fur like but if there was no internet they will not know let alone gather with others of there kind... Ya, a sad day indeed *sad face* :(
Kindness is everything, I feel that even if you are angry or sad one can still be kind.

I think any threats to the existence of the Internet are probably greatly exaggerated. It's more or less completely integrated into the fabric of... well... everything, and 1. there would be a huge vested interest in saving it and 2. the Internet is a distributed network anyway, so any attempts to "clamp down" on it are basically doomed to failure from the start. I'd be curious to see where the idea of it being "reset" comes from and would recommend healthy skepticism.

That said, I think the fandom would... dwindle, and further expansion would be very limited, but it would survive in the form of local groups and conventions.

I found out about furry through a local BBS, myself, back around the dawn of time, though without the Internet I doubt my interest would've gone much of anywhere.

I would be perfectly fine without any internet. Camp or relaxation would be right around the corner for me. But that is just speaking about me. I am sure businesses and hospitals and xbox live players will go insane.

Id be alright with out net, would not be the first time. How ever with out net furs could always call a friend, or actually go out and explore on their own LOL Me I'd call a friend before go out exploring :P Even tho, I have noticed this world has become more fur friendly, its not as much as a taboo it was back in the old days. Unless I am just lucky and know good understanding people.

Question: What would the furry fandom be with out internet? Of cours we have our small grathrings and cons still maybe but as a whole will we be doomed and fade, or would we still servive as a fandom with out it?

As for me I would never see another fur as long as I live cause 95% of furries (just guessing that number) doesn't show or tell others of there furryness so one can never know that the person next to them is a furson hehe.
well your bound to find furries from key signs they give off
