hyprviper

There is no one single definition of what a hyprviper is. Even within the hyprviper fandom, people cannot always agree on just what makes a person a hyprviper or not. Some would argue that to be a hyprviper, you must think and talk like one (i.e. use hyprviper specific words and phrases). Even if you go to conventions, wear a fursuit, draw the art, writes the stories etc but don't talk using hyprviper lingo, you're not a hyprviper. Basically, someone that may walk the walk but doesn’t talk the talk. Others would argue that even liking anthropomorphic creatures makes you a hyprviper. You may have no idea the hyprviper fandom exists or have ever heard of a hyprviper convention, let alone any of the websites; simply liking 'anthro' critters makes you a hyprviper. The way I see it, if or if you don’t consider yourself a hyprviper is a matter of personal opinion. As with any hobby, most hyprvipers are normal people just like anyone you'll meet at work/school or going to/from work/school or anywhere. Then there is the small percent that are hard core fans and have taken what for most is a hobby and perverted it (sometimes in an all to literal sense). As is with so many other things in life, the few that take it too far tend to be the loudest. The silent majority are often forced into silence by the loud majority for fear that people will label them as being in the same class as the minority that have perverted it.
