Controversies
Incident with @mochiicoop
The controversy surrounding ZolnirZael began when Twitter/X user @mochiicoop posted a screenshot of a Telegram conversation, captioned:
"People like this makes me wanna be a furry hater and quit the fandom."
The attached screenshot showed a message from ZolnirZael, which read:
"This is just a shot in the dark But you have a photo of cum leaking out of you?"
This prompted widespread backlash, with users expressing disgust and concern over their behaviour. Twitter/X user @Stick_Spectre responded:
"I would crash out so hard holy shit. Why are people like this. Disgusting."
@mochiicoop followed up:
"Ngl I almost cried bc I hate when this shit happens. It’s so disgusting and demeaning to me :,)"
User @Alterce11 added:
"Knowing that a 31 YEAR OLD, who acts like THIS, will be walking around a convention is absolutely horrifying to me."
Incident with @polarisboye
Further allegations surfaced when Twitter/X user @polarisboye retweeted the original post by @mochiicoop, providing additional screenshots of an encounter with ZolnirZael on Telegram. Their caption read:
"I'll throw my own hat in the ring, dealt with this weirdo last night."
The conversation began with polite exchanges about their shared furry species before quickly turning inappropriate:
- Polaris: "I'm assuming you decided to hit me up bc of the species we have in common?"
- Zael: "Heheh precisely!"
- Polaris: "Word word. Is that your sona in ur pfp?"
- Zael: "Yee!"
- Polaris: "They're dope as hell!"
- Zael: "Wiooow yours is more dope tho cause they got a nose piercing!"
- Polaris: "Aww, ty so much!"
- Zael: "Hehehe and probably got a dumpy too!"
- Polaris: "yeah"
- Zael: "Canigrabyourhornsfrombehind?"
- Polaris: "You need to chill."
- Zael: "Nah"
- Polaris: "We've been talking for only a couple days, it's not cool to immediately assume a guy you just met over the internet would be ok with sexual advances when there was absolutely no indication of interest to begin with. If you conceded this reminder to respect my boundaries I'd give you some leeway, but your inability to understand that no means no is quite alarming."
- Zael: "Damn. That's a lot of words. Too bad I'm not reading them!"
This response from ZolnirZael further intensified criticism, with many users calling out the dismissive attitude towards boundaries and consent.
Community Reaction
The incidents involving ZolnirZael led to significant discourse within the furry community and beyond, with many condemning their behaviour as inappropriate and predatory. Some users expressed concern over the potential presence of individuals like ZolnirZael at conventions and public events.
The backlash also reignited discussions about online safety and the necessity of setting boundaries in digital spaces, particularly in niche communities.
