Isn't it, though? If the website isn't here for the convenience of viewing different art all in one archive that uses a strict standard for ease of viewing then what is it here for? Especially when, as noted, it already includes things which are near-human but.. just.. not explicitly so.

Frankly, there's no real good reason for e6 to be furry only in this day and age. It provides absolutely no benefit and, quite the opposite, deters and alienates.

And other sites being run like shit has everything to do with e6 when the staff constantly make excuses similar to there being "plentiful other sites that allow human art."

being told "Plentiful other sites" isn't an excuse, it's telling you that they wont change and to look elsewhere. e621 for non-human related images. One of few places on the internet which caters to that very specific criteria. Hell, maybe they'll go in the opposite direction and tighten the allowed content to exclude humans and humanoids all together.
