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.

MemberYou know, looking at it makes me Wonder how Vipers homeworld looked like before Elders came.

MemberAn interesting question indeed, even when thinking other alien-species they "uplifted". Maybe vipers had a harsh-type of homeworld, when considering that they are explosive breeders.
Delinquentis
MemberMay I inquire where you take that from?
j-90
MemberFrom the The Alien Hunters DLC. Which (quoted from Tv-Tropes page) "shows that a single male Viper with access to a few females can produce swarms of offspring. Dr. Vahlen hypothesizes that the Elders may have done their Gendercide as a form of population control."

MemberWell, I mean, we don't know how long they've been without males, I'm pretty sure that in a situation where they can breed with no restraint that all instincts come back, the Elders definitely did something to suppress those instincts otherwise all Vipers would just be hanging out trying get laid and masturbating, not useful for combat.
Delinquentis
MemberWhen quote from Wikipedia or any site, am I someone who knows his (insert complex scientific field here)? Other than that, I always thought that all those offspring were created over time because we don't know how long the Viper King (we need more pics of him) was running rampant.

MemberHave you seen the game Chimera Squad? It takes place after the end of X-Com 2, where the Elders are defeated, and all their enslaved races are free. Aliens are now living alongside humans on earth.
Vipers apparently started taking jobs working as prostitutes and strippers.
