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!

MemberWhy is Raidramon bipedal and why does he looks so much different than Flamedramon even though their the same character?

MemberHe's bipedal because the artist wanted him to be?? the comic wouldn't have really worked the same otherwise.
And they hardly look different at all, the Raidramon's ears just point forward, and the Flamedramons backawrds. Tha's how they actually are in the series, it's a clever little way of giving them all a little unique touch, I believe the magnamon's ears point straight up?
