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!

MemberSo we know that all dark types were immune, and we do know that they were dark types on site during this, im curious if this will cause far more tension between both dark and psychic political parties?

MemberGiven that one of the Dark Party's big points is the possibility of the Psychic Party using their powers to control people's thoughts and opinions for their own gain, and a single(?) psychic type did just that to an entire stadium of people, and maybe the people watching via television as well?
The Dark Party wouldn't really need to spin the story that much either to get a lot of ammunition against the Psychic Party.
This is a massive victory for the Dark Party.

Memberalso were the cameras even off? Isn't everyone that watched through whatever channel it's being broadcast on super fuckin confused?
Zregs
MemberThe camera's get turned off whenever the afteraction starts. I assume that they did the same here because it'd be protocol whenever someone loses.

MemberExcept that the broadcast operator is cacturne, which is a dark type. So they might not even have known it was happening and kept rolling.
Zregs
MemberYou are correct. I entirely forgotten Cacturne's typing. Though he may not have been the one operating that day.
