ALL USERS: Please assign a working e-mail address to your account. It does not have to be your primary or main account, but it does have to be something you have access to on a regular basis.

This is for if you run into an issue where you cannot recall your password, or if it doesn't work for any other reason, you can reset it immediately instead of waiting on an admin to receive your request.

Under no circumstances will an administrator or moderator of e621, an employee of Dragonfruit, or an employee of Bad Dragon ever ask you for your password. If you encounter that situation, contact website management immediately.

We fixed the password issue, if you still can't log in reset your password, that will fix it. Contact the administration at management[at]dragonfru.it if you can't reset your password.

e621 is back up and running after our database failure; turns out the drives hadn't failed at all - the hotswap bays were at fault! Fortunately no data was lost, and downtime was only 2-3hrs. A hardware solution to prevent it happening again is underway. Comments? Questions? Email [email protected]!

Apologies for a few tickets having gone one month or more without being resolved. Most were handled by other admins at the time and were just never closed. If an issue was not resolved please file a new ticket and it will be handled ASAP

Hey guys, regardless of what you may have seen proposed in the News recently, our Tag What You See rule is still unchanged from this here. Remember, the only recent change was to allow using external information for tagging character NAMES only, NOT gender or virtually anything else. PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE RULE! Thanks! :)
