Busy but had to do a quick tribute after hearing the news.
What ever turmoils and drama there has been over the years with or without Dragoneer's involvement, it's beyond doubt that he has had a massive impact on people's lives through this site alone.
This place is where I took the first steps to be a part of the furry community, as inactive of a lurker I am. Even still, I've met some of the most inspiring and kind people through here and I wouldn't be where I am today without the growth, insight and personal development I've been blessed with through the community.
I feel a lot is owed to FA in that sense. This place has been a great spot for community for a really long time, sprouting many subcommunities that really couldn't have flourished the way they do if it weren't for the gathering hub provided by this place.
For that I do want to thank Dragoneer and celebrate what he brought to the world. No one should have to go through the struggle you went through.
Rest in power.
