Rules

The rules of the Discord server are broadly similar to e621's own rules, but the Discord platform necessitates additional rules.
The rules may be viewed in their entirety in the #welcome channel, but to briefly sum up the differences:

  • All rules of Discord apply in full (https://discordapp.com/ & https://discordapp.com/guidelines).
  • Certain hard fetishes must not produce full previews and must have warnings describing the fetish content, even when they may normally be embedded on e621.
  • Posts including young characters may not be linked or embedded, even when they may normally be linked and embedded on e621.

Discord Constables

In addition to the listed at e621:staff, the Discord server has a number of additional staff , "Discord Constables".

Appealing Discord Bans

You may message Staff Lead Rainbow Dash to inquire about and appeal Discord bans.

Private Help

The Discord server includes a #private-help channel where s may file tickets to discuss privately with s, s, Janitors, and Discord Constables.
It is good practice to open your ticket by providing immediately relevant information (who, what, why, where, etc.) instead of waiting for a staff response.
Non-sensitive inquiries (such as fixing one's blacklist, finding specific posts, etc.) should generally be redirected to #e621-helpdesk or #tag-discussions instead.

  • Artists, commissioners, and character owners can file takedown requests on the site's Takedowns form, as usual.
  • Reporting s, posts, pools, sets, etc. on the site is sufficient for notifying s and s of non-Discord issues.
  • Flagging posts on the site is sufficient for notifying s and Janitors of non-Discord issues.

Staff with the "Private Help Helpers" role are immediately notified of new tickets, while other staff may choose to voluntarily participate. The conversation is completely invisible to non-staff.
If you wish to include another to discuss something or provide testimony, you may ask a staff member to add them to the ticket by mentioning their Discord .
A single Discord may make one ticket a day. If you have closed your ticket prematurely and have something new to discuss, you may wish to an e621 staff member to reopen the ticket.

Nicknames

Upon ing the e621 Discord server, your Discord will be assigned a nickname matching your e621 name. s are not allowed to assign themselves arbitrary nicknames.
e621 staff can assign nicknames, but are under no obligation to do so. Assume that asking may result in a joke being made at your expense.

Synchronizing your e621 name

You may synchronize your Discord nickname with your currently active e621 name by using the /name-sync command.
This may be useful if you have changed your name on-site, or if you have grown bored of a particular vanity nickname.

Artist Verification via Discord

Since Discord s are automatically linked to e621 s on , your identity as an artist can be quickly verified if there is any obvious link between your Discord and your art galleries.

  • If your galleries mention your Discord name, this alone should be sufficient.
  • Discord itself allows s to ownership of s on several different websites, including:
    • Bluesky
    • Reddit
    • X (formerly Twitter)
    • Facebook
    • any personal website for which you can edit the DNS record.
  • If you can't/won't link your Discord to your artist identity, you can create a #private-help ticket to handle verification privately.

You must have an for at least one week in order to the Discord server.
