Anon 5, either youre right or some guys back then thought that they would be best trolls ever if they could convince future generations that hybrids existed.
Im not sure what would be the better option, but with advanced clone-technology resurrecting extinted hybrid races would be fucking awesome. I can even see the Advertisement: "Order your very own Nekomata now and save 20%! Buy 10 and get one for free! Only 7.999$ each!"

Be careful with that . there, anon6. In English speaking countries, we separate every three digits with a comma and we use a period to separate the decimal part, so "one thousand dollars and ninety-nine cents" would be written "$1,000.99". I know in other languages they do it the other way around, so "one thousand euro and ninety-nine eurocents" would be written "€1.000,99". Knowing this, there being 3 9's after the period implies to me that you're trying to say "seven thousand nine hundred ninety nine dollars", but many Americans would read that as "seven dollars and ninety nine point nine cents", or effectively "eight dollars".
I know that there are other countries whose currencies are named the dollar, but Gelbooru users are predominantly American, so it's probably a good idea to keep American (and general English-speaking) syntax in mind when commenting on Gelbooru.
