That is what I was getting at, thank you. :) I'm not always as articulate as I'd like to be anymore.
I personally never felt it made furry 'the way it is', but I do feel what happened with this magazine listing, etc, certainly colored Confurence that way to those outside the fandom, and since for many years it was the only furry con it had a huge impact on the public face of the fandom. An impact which the fandom has been having to fight ever since.
