Edit: Donation goal reached and Dura's surgery is scheduled to take place on Nov 1st!

Old description:
I created this animation to help a fellow artist DuragonArt
I'm not being compensated for this in any way and it's entirely my own incentive to spread the word this way.
He has 71 days left to gather remaining $17,500 out of $30,000 for the surgery, otherwise it will be bumped to August next year and sadly by that point it will likely be too late. I know you came here for porn and a post like this is a downer but please understand that this person is in a very difficult situation and just wants to live so help if you can (even just $1 helps*) or at the very least don't downvote this post.

Donation link: https://ko-fi.com/DuragonArtFund

*if only 10% of people who have seen my post on Twitter donated just a single dollar Dura would've already reached his goal. Do not dismiss the power of small donations - don't think "I'm not gonna donate because $1 won't make a difference" because that's exactly not the case and most people are able to spare just a single dollar.

Also I have to absolutely thank everyone for a massively positive response and all the donations! We were able to raise around 10% of the goal which is awesome, but by no means are we close to the finish line - it's only at 42% at the time of writing this. And while my tweet with this female version got some insane numbers and became my second most popular tweet reaching over 210k views and almost 10k likes, the herm version which I just posted has flopped and is doing pretty poorly, so go like, retweet and comment that one if you have a Twitter account, maybe it can still recover: https://twitter.com/AngryDraconequ1/status/1826728551468728478

    Never seen a porn fundraiser before it's a nice change of pace

    There used to be a fur with a decent follow count, matter of fact I can't confirm yet but I think he's on here? Anyway, the dude once raised $10k in like a weeks time thanks to his people and admitted to selling photos of himself since he wasn't stable with a job just to donate the money for someone's med bills. Good furs are out there like angrydraconequus here, they just get over looked a lot. But I can 100% confirm Angry is right about one thing. Small donations definitely do matter. The guy I followed had TWO $1,000 donations but the other $8k? All from like $1 to $5 donos.

    Save a life with $1 it's actually possible.

    *lots of positive stuff*

    Also thank you everyone for a very positive response and obviously thanks to everyone that has donated so far or will in the future! I wasn't sure how this post would be received but I'm glad my fears were unfounded!

    Uh, Hey- Fellow furs of the internet. Just confirming the story here. Seeing as it's me being referenced. Former content creator.

    1: I did sell photos to aide the help of someone who needed it but that was negligible by comparison to how much others genuinely helped thanks to their own kindness. Seriously, you matter. I know I don't do the content thing anymore but without people or an audience to listen to other's voices, we got nothing. So you guys helping out with Duragon means more than you'll ever truly understand.

    2: I didn't save someone's life, I know it wasn't stated but figured I should clarify. It was just to pay for someone's surgical bill. I'm afraid to even state what the surgery was because I know you guys are smart and I don't want them being questioned based on any info I give outside the vague.

    3: Sheri or...Sheriff? Is correct. Two people donated an astounding $1,000. One by name and one anonymously while literally every other payment. Like 90% of the rest was between $1 to $5. We had the occasional $10 to $20. MAYBE $50. But it just goes to show that even if a third of 75,000 people at the time were willing to pay $1, the money can be made in no time. I know time are rough but it's someone's life over a package of Ramen. Just...consider it, if you would.

    It's awesome to see people still using their influence like this and hell, to remember my influence after nearly 5 years is absolutely wild. I sincerely hope for the best in Duragon's Health and praise the absolute SHIT out of AngryDraconEquus for doing this. Love you guys and while I don't consider myself part of the fandom anymore, it's stuff like this here that gives me hope for it.

  • I want to donate, but I don't know anything about ko-fi. Does the recipient get notified of what my e-mail is if I use PayPal? Obviously, they wouldn't get my CC, but I'd like to remain anonymous if at all possible.

    Two parter here.

    Draconian - Make sure to set up a 2FA just to stay safe but everything on Ko-fi I believe is handled by PayPal. So you should be good.

    Sheri/Sheriff - ...Hi. lol Don't go by Nion anymore but dude, you can just DM me xD

    I have 2FA on PayPal. Not worried about having CC information stolen; I'm worried about my anonymity, lol. I have a different name on this site than everywhere else because it's a porn site, lol, and I'd like to keep my normal online moniker separate from this one, if you get what I mean.

    So I'm wanting to make sure that DuragonArt doen't receive a message with my e-mail attached or something if I use PayPal.

    Gotcha! Okay, yes. In that case. Yes, I believe it will show your PayPal name. It's been a while but if you're absolutely interested in keeping your identity safe, I would suggest maybe a friend or someone aware of the donations you're comfortable giving the money to so they can donate it themselves. If they don't mind giving their name that is. I've had to find a lot of ways to work around this stuff before.

    No problem! And I wanna stress, even if you can't or aren't comfortable donating- Dude, all I ever had to work with before was my voice. Sharing this so it can reach other people has an incredible trickle effect.

    It actually doesn't show any personal info on Ko-Fi - only your Ko-Fi username and I think you can also donate without an account as a guest so the donation will be anonymous.

    Although unfortunately the recipient (in this case DuragonArt) will be able to display your Paypal including your e-mail and legal name regardless since it's a direct transaction from your Paypal account to his Paypal account and exact same rules apply as usual. That being said Dura will be the only one with access to that information (and it's only visible if he actually deliberately goes into that specific transaction details and honestly remember that it's one donation in a sea of literally thousands others).

    That's okay, I said it before on Twitter but everybody make sure to worry about yourselves first and foremost - if you really can't donate then there's no point forcing it. There are other ways to help - for example liking, retweeting and commenting the post on Twitter will give it a boost in the algorithm so it will reach more people!
    https://twitter.com/AngryDraconequ1/status/1824190115683635695

    And that's true even if you don't have any followers - what counts in the algorithm the most is the number of interactions a tweet gets. An especially important metric is the percentage of people that have seen the post and chosen to interact instead of scrolling past it. If a large percentage of people interact with the tweet then it will be quickly pushed to more people and so on. However if many people are scrolling past then the post will quickly die out as the algorithm will stop pushing the post on other people timelines. And also commenting gives tweets the biggest boost, retweeting gives a smaller one and liking gives the smallest.

    I'd have to make a Twitter account, but I'll be sure to spread the word.

    I can't help but keep checking on this to make sure it keeps growing but, I wanna reiterate. You CAN help. Doesn't always have to be with cash. Even if you don't have the $1 to spare. I get it, bills gotta be paid, food has to be bought. You can however, still share this through word of mouth because even if you don't have the extra funds, someone does. It helps far more than you think.

    Yes, the post got 167 views and 11 faves there. Maybe i'll try to delete it and post again tomorrow but honestly most of my posts there don't even break a 1000. FA lack of any algorithm and scoring system means the posts never make it very far and also die out pretty hard after just a few hours.

    What? I wonder how they banned it. If it's just a DNS block then you can simply circumvent it by using cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 DNS - that's how my friend from germany was able to circumvent his ISP blocking the sites. However I suspect that might be deeper and maybe you actually need a VPN to access these sites.

    I thought porn hub blocked access to multiple states as a form of protection and protest against legislation in those states.
