A general otherkin forum, claiming to provide a friendly but serious environment and attempting to avoid fluff, elitism, and drama. It's name comes from combining the words "otherkin" and "insight".
Controversy
This forum previously displayed an acceptance of a self-professed "proud pedophile", TheDarkEricDraven[1], which brought its claim of avoiding drama into question. Admins were quick to ban those who reported on the pedophile's activities on their site, while doing nothing about the pedophile himself.[2],[3]
Since then, Draven has been banned from their forums and the accounts of those who reported on his activities have been unbanned, with a request that further information about their forum not be "leaked".[4] One of their mods, Zinergie, posted a public response to the controversy denying that their system or anyone at OtherkinSight ever has or will support pedophilia.[5] Meanwhile, Draven continues to serve as a moderator, under the alias ZeroRei, on theAnime Fever message board owned by Otherkinsight moderator bloodmuffins.[6].
On December 31, 2012, Kodama of Otherkinsight re-blocked Jarandhel Dreamsinger for reporting on TheDarkEricDraven's activities on other sites, claiming that such reporting constituted stalking, spying, and constituted a danger to Otherkinsight's members. Also cited was Dreamsinger's refusal to rewrite this article to be more favorable to Otherkinsight.
Merger with Therian Discovery
On December 10, 2012 Therian Discovery Dot Org ceased to exist as an independent entity and was integrated with Otherkinsight.
