Hi! I am having problems with launching DeviantArt's website. Every time I try to launch the website, I get this error:

I wanna know how to fix this! Please send me any solutions!

Hello, for quite a few months now I have been getting the same art piece in my recommends on my Deviantart account. This art piece is usually of Sonic the Hedgehog as I have liked various other Sonic art pieces. However upon clicking on the account, it was anything but an art account. It was swarming with this vile bigoted posts in the gallery that the person got from other websites ranging from antisemitism to racism and promoting these bigoted conspiracy theories.

Needless to say I reported the account. However, the same person with the exact same Sonic artwork was back in my feeds and had the same bigoted posts in the gallery. I could tell it was the same person due to the aforementioned Sonic art, which they did not own, and some fetishtic artwork of feet and outright porn in addition to the bigoted posts. It is of my belief that this person is using these stolen art pieces to get recommended to people's feeds and to lure them into viewing their bigoted posts in the gallery or, as I fear, radicalize them into white supremacy.

In addition, I have reasons to believe this person has a VPN as these accounts pop-up in quick succession. The moment one of these accounts is terminated another takes its place. In addition, the everything they post on the gallery is posted on the exact same day the account was made. I know I am not alone in this as in the comments of these various accounts there are people who told them they are being reported or blocked. This person believes they could get away with it through repetition, expecting people to give up.

Keep in mind that this has been going on for months now this individual is still creating new accounts to steal artwork from and posting their bigoted content. I guess the main reason I am right typing this is just to spread awareness of this problem that I and others are experiencing on the website. If you any of this persons accounts contains a combination of porn, foot fetish art, bigoted posts, and their account and posts are on the same day, then report them. I have had enough of this individual's presence and the sooner they and people like them are expelled from the sight the better.

The pictures I have are some of the screenshots that I have taken on the Deviantart app which contains the images I was referring to, including the stolen Sonic artwork. Fair warning as viewer discretion is advised as you will see the most bigoted crap and by the time you read this the accounts pictured here may have been terminated only to be replaced by another. And to those that follow these bigoted ideas, I just have one thing to say: BURN IN HELL!!!😡🖕

Making this post to see if anyone has found a workaround for this absolute shitshow. To be clear, I'm talking about the 403 errors that clearly aim to block vpn users. Not the 502 errors, defective browsing function and whatever other issues this poorly maintained, borderline unusable garbage site has had in the past week.

Last time this came up, some vpns like Norton were still working while Opera for example was blocked. So, if anyone finds a vpn those morons forgot to blacklist, be a gent and share it here.

This is inspired by a Twitter post that went viral the other day, but it's true. Only on DA will you find a fetish for just about anything. We all i'm sure have heard of the "wonder bread" guy.

I grew up on DA and Flipnote Hatena, which is basically DA for the Nintendo DSi. The strangest fetishes I ever remember seeing was one for the round metal bars in handicapped bathroom stalls, and one for bottle caps.

Hi everyone --- this is Books-of-Aenya from DeviantArt. I am a CORE member and a loyal user of DA for over ten years, and I have NEVER had a problem like this.

In the past, all you needed to log in was a username and password, but things have recently changed. Now, they require 2FA authentication. My other sites, like WordPress, send you a text or security email. But apparently, DA's security is much stricter than PayPal's or even my bank accounts'! They are asking for a weird app and a QR Code I cannot get to work and I am not even sure I can use at this point.

I have emailed the company, but it's been over four days, and I've heard nothing back. I have not been banned or anything --- I simply do not know what this 2FA thing is or what to do about it. I have no idea if I will be waiting weeks, months, or years. Why they couldn't just send me a text or security email like every other site is beyond me.

Please help.

hi guys let me know if this doesn't follow the rules I didn't see anything about it, but I have a lot of fragments left over from a core I purchased eons ago. Having a hard time finding active users to give one to. just leave your profile below and I'll give it, it'll be coming from momodori-p

After a year I'm finally up to 100 watchers on here and there's definitely more to come 😁

just the title

EDIT: Within minutes of posting this my account is back, fun, cool, totally not going to go scream into a pillow now

Like many people, I've suddenly gotten logged out and received nothing but 404 issues. This could not have come at a worse time for me and nearly game me a heart attack, even more so when multiple friends had no issues. Having been there for over 10 years, I was ready to freak out until I realized it was likely a site-wide thing. I'm going to go watch shows and pray for good news in the morning....

For reference my account is Aijihi, so there's some more credit to the "affecting A or B Usernames" thing

I suddenly get the "llama not found" when trying to go to my userpage and i can't login anymore because there is no user with my username? was i banned? i didn't get any notification about it and i'm positive i didn't break any of the rules

Remember that racist person with multiple accounts on Deviantart. Well they're back again this time trying to frame me as they copied and pasted my user name onto their new account in what I believe is an attempt to frame me. Report this account. It is not me.

And given that they copied and pasted my username that means they saw my original post on this subreddit, which means they are an active user of this website. So, to the person who owns these accounts is reading this, I would like to say this: GET LOST! 🖕

I made a new account after many years of not using DA and I don’t see any buttons to change my cover image and bio. I am on the web version on my phone. I checked the Core membership out of curiosity, and the first feature listed is customizing your profile. If you seriously need to pay money to something as basic as customizing your profile, I think that’s terrible. I have never seen something like that on a social media platform. Please tell me I am missing something or I can do it on the computer? And the worst thing is if I am understanding the fine print right, it doesn’t seem like you can pay monthly for Core, it just breaks down what the annual price would be per month, which is pretty misleading because it doesn’t state the annual price up front. I am so disappointed in what DA has come to, it used to be pretty cool :(

UPDATE: I got my account back, so this can safely be ignored

Account name: AleXYZ-510

This has made me freak out! I thought I had lost everything, despite doing nothing wrong on here that I can think of, but apparently, it's a problem other users are experiencing.

So I get logged-out of DeviantArt, and I try to log back in, but then it states that my password is "incorrect", and so I try to go to my userpage, but then it states "Llama Not Found". I then check from one of my watchers' userpages, and I see my profile still here (and NOPE, no crossed lines), and my art is still here, but clicking on anything still brings up the error page. Mysteriously enough, I searched art for an obscure cartoon (I made art of Rated A for Awesome a while back btw), and ofc, I have found my piece of art still available on the search, and i WAS able to access that art-page, as well as other recommended artworks.

I am posting this to create awareness to the problem, and I hope that soon, DeviantArt fixes this and gets all our accounts back.

My DeviantART account is new (few hours old) and has verified email.

• Cannot watch users
• Cannot submit art (stays in drafts)
• Cannot write artist bio/info
• Cannot post comments

But I was able to add profile and banner pictures. 🤷‍♀️

Update: After 2 days, it worked for a little bit and then not again. I can't even attempt to be active on that site if this keeps happening...

Meme templates are definitely being overused, and I'm sick and tired of seeing them. Everytime I go onto DeviantArt, I see a meme template and it ticks me off.

I'm considering leaving the site but haven't fully made up my mind yet. Is it possible to temporarily set any of your works or entire profile private / hidden?

Why they replace the all section gallery with some useless thing,we want the all section back!!

Something Wrong is happening when I acess DA Website,it's just appears a White Page of Icons and Texts from what should be the DA Web Page,is there a way to solve this?

Why?

I already miss it :(

I also got hit by this bug today.

Solution that worked for me is to delete all cookies, close the browser and log back in.

You could also try deleting cookies, close the browser, log in from another browser. That made a reset on my account.

Is this a bug, or has something happened to my account?
