Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.
Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.
Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

MemberAlso because people don't use "favorite" as actual favorite, they use it as some sort of "add to personal gallery" sorta thing, that's why you often see pictures with many more favorites than upvotes even when it's not a repost.

Memberthat's the point of favorites..

MemberOops I've been using it wrong. I dunno which site got me into the habit of it, but I always saw favourites as a super-upvotes.
AnotherDay
MemberNo. It would be called "Add to personal gallery" instead of "favorites" if that were the point.
If you like something enough that it's a favorite you should at least give it a thumbs up/upvote, too.
AnotherDay
MemberYeah, that's pretty much how it's supposed to be used. That's why its' called "favorite" and not "add to view later list" or something. You consider it one of your favorites so you "super upvote" it 'cause you like it so much, which also means you should regular upvote it as well. It's only good e6iquette.
