April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberMan I really wish I had an explanation of the joke right about now, since I don't get it.
(But seriously what's the joke? I didn't watch this show.)

MemberThere was a scene in the show where Robotnik said "Snooping as usual, I see", and it became YTP/meme fodder because syllables 2 and 3 (ping as) got cut out of context and sounded somewhat like "penis". Hence pingas. This image changes that to "sniping" rather than "snooping", and Scratch, the chicken-robot, is drawn as the Sniper from Team Fortress.
The note, now deleted, said "snoo" where "sni" currently is, which I don't really think would have helped anyone who wasn't already familiar with the meme and was probably someone thinking there was a typo or something.
