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.

MemberWhat I wouldn't give to find an awesome yet mildly kinky gamer-girl. Not the fake ones you see modeling at comic-con and stuff like that but the real, cool ones who actually enjoys games for their looks, their story, their controls, their characters and the sense of imagination itself.

MemberAh, you seek the one that shares the same hobbies and interests as well and humour good looks.
To be honest, I'm on the same Adventure as well. :)

BlockedNice. I'm glad to see one of my favorites from ldr at a higher quality.

BlockedImagination? Story? Characters? What games are YOU playing?
I've been watching the steady de-evolution of mainstream gaming into the FPS. And those are imaginative insofar as finding better ways for 12-year-olds to kill each other online.
BiasedThoughts
MemberYeah, in truth, it feels never ending sometimes, doesn't it?
You know, instead of believing everyone follows the masses, there are a couple of people who still play videogames for the same reasons I mentioned which doesn't include mindless repetition. Not all gamers think online FPS's are the best games in the world and most gamers also don't pay attention to the main stream media such as IGN, Game Informer and etc because we know for a fact that those companies shell out cash in order to get those amazing worth-wild reviews so their games keep selling. If anything, you should spend less time caring about what people who follow the crowd and focus more on what makes you enjoy the games you play in the first place and if it really bothers you that much, one would expect you to be happy to hear someone talking about games that don't fall inline with average military shooters.

BlockedYou didn't actually say anything about the KIND of games you were speaking of, just that they were imaginative. So one could assume you were speaking of mainstream games.
So now you say that's not the kind of games you meant. Okay.
And I don't believe cash buys you a good review. Game producers can't buy off everyone and we've all seen titles that cost millions to make get panned.
And the original argument wasn't just about what I or you enjoy, remember? You were looking for a gamer girl, at least one other person.
I'm saying that she wouldn't be so hard to find, if there were more games that weren't just mindless shoot-em-ups.

MemberIn all things there are balance, friends.
The more time and effort one invests in some areas, the less they will invest in others.
Visualize a *person* who truly enjoys video games, regardless of their gender. What do they look like? People come in all shapes and sizes, this is true... but there remains the fact that the more time someone spends gaming, the less time the spend:
- exercising
- performing all requisite steps to acquire AND prepare healthy food
- cleaning up the space they live in
- cleaning *themselves* up
- indulging in other interesting hobbies
The truth is, the most likely scenario will be someone who doesn't exercise, eats mostly junk food, lets the mess pile up, and doesn't know how to talk to you because they don't socialize outside.
Any human who meets your prerequisites is tragically predisposed to being a fat, sloppy, unwashed introvert. Girls can be like that too.
But I didn't come here to shoot you down, oh no - there's valuable advice to be had:
Love is not a set of prerequisites that are either met in full or there is no attraction, no matter how much it SEEMS that way. We all have a set of variables that we weigh at varying degrees of importance. If someone satisfies enough of these, you will become attached. Sometimes the things they have make up so much for the things they lack, you will find romance in startlingly unexpected ways, yet so happy that you don't even *care*.
It's how I met my current SO.
