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!

MemberI only worked on like half of the white-castle images, and now a bunch of them are incorrectly tagged as my art
Versperus
ModeratorThere is was a misconception that you're the same people based off of a link you both share
crunchobar
MemberWhich is why it worked better having the stuff under the same link tagged as that handle (white-castle) and not my personal handle, since now a bunch of Pooding's art is listed as mine
Versperus
Moderatornow I'm confused as this image is the only one on site with pooding tagged on it, and the link I was referring to was
http://www.etsy.com/shop/LemonCremeStudios
So are you saying that white-castle is a collaboration account between you and pooding?
Versperus
ModeratorYou should talk to notmenotyou again on the topic, so things can get squared away on what can be posted
crunchobar
MemberYes, white-castle/lemon-creme is a collab account between pooding and I, and the tag being not linked to "crunchobar" as an alias was perfectly fine and kept everything separated. I will contact the mod to try and sort this out.
