	ConFurence - WikiFur, the furry encyclopedia
		By ConFurence 8, the general attitude toward ConFurence was that it was a "wild party" and that things were considered to be getting out of control at times.
		Although the entire staff of Confurence pre-Darrel practically remained the same, with the exception of a few new staff who came in from LASFS, the idea that the convention lost members due to Darrel's political and social affiliations still cannot either be dismissed as untrue or as fact.
		Whatever the case, Darrel announced that ConFurence 2003 (14) would be the final ConFurence, and that the name and event, while still remaining his sole property, would cease to exist and operate.

	Talk:Burned Fur - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		ConFurence, as a result of low attendance, folded its tent after only two or three conventions under the new management.
		The first drop in Confurence's attendance occured during their 1999 convention (see AFCIS), which was held after Burned Fur came onto the scene.
		Calbeck also attempts to pin the blame on lifestylers for Confurence folding its tent in 2003, but makes no mention of the fact that Burned Furs were doing everything they could to make lifestylers feel unwelcome.

	ConFurence Official Policy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		For the length of ConFurence Ten, all real, realistic, or simulated weapons must be peace-bonded with ribbon.
		If you have a weapon that needs to be displayed as part of the Costume Presentation, you need to make special arrangements with both the Security and Costume Show staff ahead of time – preferably prior to the con, in writing.
		Thirdly, keep in mind that as furries we're all fond of cuddling and affection – But there comes a point where, to be polite in public, both of you should head off to a private room.

		His next big furry convention will probably be Confurence 10 in April 1999, or perhaps one in January 1999.
		Only a handful of artists can rely on their artwork as their primary source of income; for the majority, success is defined as merely breaking even.
		For Confurence 10, transportation, accomodations, and building up his portfolio are expected to set him back about $600.

	Mark Merlino: ZoomInfo Business People Information (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Merlino was active promoting the furry fandom on sci-fi conventions (the logical outlet for a fan of imaginary creatures?), kept one of the first 'furry BBS' around (BBS were a proto-internet back on the first half of the 90s) and he was the chairman of the ConFurence, the first independient furry convention.
		Merlino is homosexual, and, in order to satisfy his libido according with his character's philosophy, he promoted ConFurence on Californian gay circles, veering away from usual sci-fi environments.
		Merlino attracted people to the early fandom's pillars, ConFurence and FurryMuck, not for the art, or the roleplaying, or the comics, but because it was an open place for sex, according with his newly adapted philosophy, they were tolerant and open-minded (a.k.a.

	YARF! Chronology
		It has had a major significance in furry fandom, starting around 1984 as the center of the Tiger's Den BBS, then furry parties and ConFurence; but to infer that the Prancing Skiltaire was created specifically to be a furry commune or that it has only been that, is incorrect.
		January 1989: ConFurence Zero, the first exclusively furry convention, is held 21-22 January at the Holiday Inn Bristol Plaza in Costa Mesa, California, organized by Mark Merlino, Rod O'Riley, and others.
		January 1990: ConFurence 1, the "first real" furry convention, is held 26-28 January, again at the Holiday Inn Bristol Plaza in Costa Mesa, California.

	ConFurence East 2 at Holiday Inn Independence November 1996
		Let me preface a bit, saying the bulk of this page was written in 1996 just after I had returned from my what was my first furry convention.
		I had to take a picture of "Welcome Confurence Members " on the marquee.
		Then I went off on my own, and felt uncomfortable at the site of non-fursuited furries being furry, (huggles,skritching,sniffing.) It's a lot to see for a first timer, I was expecting a room of fursuiters, but I saw a LOT of people and they were of all different types.
