Jan 7th: Small update to the Uploading Guidelines today: We now no longer allow paintovers of AI generated content. Or in other words AI generated content that has been edited to some degree by humans.
Dec 1st: If your account has been hit in the most recent ban wave of compromised accounts please reach out to us at management[at]e621.net and we'll help you get your account back.
If you've already contacted us give us a moment to get to you, though if it takes longer than a day for us to get back to you do feel free to reach out again!
Dec 2nd: If you got got and suddenly aren't able to see any of our exquisite selection of sausage and taco posts double check that Safe Mode is disabled in your account settings (Account -> Settings -> Safe mode [right above the blacklist text box]).
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

JanitorExtremely hard to say what's the actual case here. However to me at least it seems like the pose is what's exact match, not any of the linework.

JanitorNah, nothing wrong with that. Just that we have chosen here to not host traced content, so we are kinda evaluating that and users are encouraged to point it out by flagging the posts like that.
Biggest problem arising from this is that if the reference is way too much on spot that people start to harrass over the fact. I think there has been at least one case where artist has nuked their work as they didn't want to deal with the accusations. Just remember that if that starts happening here you can always report users or ask admins to clarify the situation in the comments.
