April 9th: Our dedicated FurID gallery is now live. Thank you all for the submissions to our little April Fool's prank, we hope you had as much fun as we did!
e621 is an open and friendly community that people visit to share and enjoy furry artwork. People can have different opinions, but that does not give them permission to make someone else feel uncomfortable or unwanted.
Do not make messages with the apparent purpose of upsetting someone. That includes picking fights, baiting arguments, calling names, or making remarks regarding personal grievances, quarrels, or malicious rumors.
Do not purposefully or repeatedly spread false or defamatory information.
Do not mention any actions of suicide, self harm / mutilation, depression-induced pain, or other malicious acts directed towards the self.
Do not encourage others to engage in harmful behaviors, including suicide, eating disorders, or other forms of self harm.
Do not give others medical or legal advice that could result in harm coming to themselves or others.
Do not promote ideologies that are harmful to public safety.

Do not demand that certain administrative actions be taken against another user. Do not claim personal influence over staff decisions.
Do not disobey any direct instructions made by staff members.
Do not add any tags that are invalid, and do not remove tags that are valid.
Tags in the general category are considered valid if they follow the Tag What You See principle – that is, they must be describing what is visible in the post.
Tags in the lore category convey the artist's intentions or other background information.
Tags in other categories are valid if the information that they convey is objectively true, such as the artist's name or the image's aspect ratio.
Do not upload posts with fewer than ten general, non-implied tags.
This restriction will be eased if the post does not have ten distinct tags that are reasonably applicable to it.
Do not use tag or description edits to be disruptive.
Do not add any sources that are invalid, and do not remove any sources that are valid.
Valid sources are defined as web pages where the artwork can be found.
At least one source page should be publicly available, unless you are the artist, commissioner, or copyright owner of the artwork.
Do not use links to piracy sites as sources.
Links to the exact submission page where the artwork can be found should be prioritized. This is not the same as the direct image link, which isn’t helpful. Links to the artist's gallery pages should be added to their artist page.
Do not add source links that redirect to a different URL (eg. URL shorteners).
Dead links to pages where the artwork could be found in the past are still considered valid and should instead be disabled by prefixing them with -.
Don't waste our time with these invalid tickets and flags, and don't vandalize tags, notes, and descriptions. [1][2][3][4]

This restriction will be eased if the post does not have ten distinct tags that are reasonably applicable to it.
Do not use tag or description edits to be disruptive.

At least one source page should be publicly available, unless you are the artist, commissioner, or copyright owner of the artwork.
Do not use links to piracy sites as sources.
Links to the exact submission page where the artwork can be found should be prioritized. This is not the same as the direct image link, which isn’t helpful. Links to the artist's gallery pages should be added to their artist page.
Do not add source links that redirect to a different URL (eg. URL shorteners).
Dead links to pages where the artwork could be found in the past are still considered valid and should instead be disabled by prefixing them with -.

Role-Play
Do not initiate, encourage, or partake in public role-play sessions, either between users or by yourself.

Do not complain about content that could be blacklisted. Simply add the corresponding tag to your blacklist. If you believe that a post is missing a valid tag, add the tag yourself.
Do not make messages announcing that you have blacklisted a specific tag or certain kinds of content.
