squish squish

I <3 cbee's art.

FACT: this is the earliest image on e621, post numbers 1 to 13 don't exist (zomg conspiracy!?)

uh, 1 through 12 I mean.

So this is where e621 came from? I wonder if its like this for all websites

nom nom nom

I heard that the first 12 posts were of lolcats.

a lot of older pics are gone for whatever reason

there's this old great comic fel did of a bat and a hedgehog/porcupine that's just not here anymore

shame

The boobs are going to suck her in.

Lol, so the very "first" image posted was cub. lol AWESOME.

seriously?! wow...its weird but kinda awesome how e621 can be traced directly back to lolcats

We should research and write the epic of e621, from the dawn of time until the prophecies of its end.

"In the beginning, a furfag set up a server..."

Well, for being the first post ever, youd think this would have some more comments

I guess furries aren't interested in their past

so this is the first upload...

Wow, first upload. 13 is quite the unlucky :3 but 13 is also somewhat a number fitting. hehe

He came to the conclusion that rule 35 might be in place.

First post.
See what I did thar?

So this is our origin.
Huh. Kinda disappointing, really.

Big breasted female is so hot, must fuck her.

THE SOURCE...

And the furfag saw that the rule was good.

I pay my respects to post number "1"

does anyone know why the first 12 posts were deleted?

i'm fairly certain that nobody remembers, naton9..

According to e621 historians (see above), the first 12 were lolcats.

Yay I'm not the only one interested in seeing what the first one was! XD

In the beginning, a furfag set up a server and, saw it was good. On the second day, he said, "Let there be rule 34" And behold, rule 34 was born. On the third day, the furfag raped the newly created rule 34 and saw it was good. On the fourth through the sixth days, the furfag was at a furcon and, on the seventh day, he rested.

I guess cbee is the holder two records on this site. First post, and lowest rated post.

A damn shame that someone decided to be a party-pooper and remove this piece of history... Oh well, the artist got what they wanted.

ALSO. This was posted on Feb 10th 2007, but Kermu joined the site Oct 30 2008. Uh...

This post may be deleted, but it can be viewed via the WayBack Machine here:

I wonder if smitty werbenjagermanjensen was the first post on this site.

Lovely.

I'd better add a comment and then request the wayback machine crawl it so it'll be preserved for all eternity.

I can't believe we can still comment on this. I have viewed this image in the wayback machine. It seems like I have seen this very image on another site but in color. Has anybody else seen a color version of this image?

It's deleted :o

Looked like Toriel... lol and wow, and the detail’s pretty great!

just paying tribute.

I shall leave my mark.

well then

here it is...

Hard to believe that this is the oldest viewable post on e621.

not anymore

ooooh man, I am too late to see one of the oldest viewable post on e621.

NOOOOOoooo...!!! It's Gone! The first official post on e621 has been deleted. Curse thou foul beast!

...

Ok ok. All drama aside. It is a shame that post 13 (the first none "test" post) is now gone forever.

Wonder if Char had any hesitation to deleting this?...

i want to see the 1-12 lolcats

I thinks this is something that everyone with an account needs to do... search that first image!

Aaaaannnd it's gone

I've done it! Delved into the bowels of the site (but not in a vore way). I wonder what's up with 1-12.

either they were deleted a different way or somehow wiped from history
if you find any information let me know

I've been saving furry porn like an addict for almost 13 years now, but 490GB just isn't enough for me. Out of the 40 or so websites I've collected from over the years, E621 is the only one I haven't "fully" gone through yet. So I'm just gonna leave my stupid little "Rozzy wuz here ʕᵔᴥᵔʔ" and bump those rookie numbers up while I start here at post #13 and make my way up to the 2 million mark.

I know nobody cares, but I still wish you all good cummings!

Might as well leave my mark. I feel like being able to comment on deleted posts will be impossible at some point.

I suppose I should jump on the wagon as well.

Is it bad form to ask for the source now that it’s deleted? I kinda wanna know what this is, what with being the first post and all, but I don’t have a clue how I’d go about looking for it

2020 furry party

Maybe we could find the old posts through the Way Back Machine?

Damn I remember this picture! Too bad it's gone now...

So this is the legendary starting point...

galaxyburst said:

And a now defunct one no less...

I guess this is some form of 'Rite of passage', to visit the (almost) very first image on e621.
There's a link to a wayback machine view of this page.
Alright, almost 88mph, then back to 2020!

Ah, took a look, as though into an abyss... So that's what this site used to be like, with tags cobbled into one.

And most recent of comments was from 9 years ago.

I am still looking for one that's still here, so I'll find it in a sec hopefully from the appropriate thread. Or just trying the post numbers.

EDIT: Well it is the very next one. Good to see it's still there, at least.

Thought this would be fitting for my first ever comment on here.

Does anyone have the image?

Interesting that this is the first porn image on E621

History!

I am in history.....I am not pround of it and if someone I know see this, well "I am not a furry but you are here too so no U"

What happened to posts 1-12?

What happened to posts 1-12?

after 7 ate 9, 6 shot 7 in the skull, 3 being mad at 6, stabbed 6, but 6 stabbed back and both bled out to death, then 1 and 2 had an argument over who's fault it was and 1 had enough and shot 2 multiple times in the chest, 4 went and shot 1 in the head and 1 and 2 were dead, but 5 was angry at 4 for murdering 1 and went after him, but failed and got shot by 1, 10 went to 1 and tried to talk him out of it but failed and 10 got stabbed 30 times in the chest by 1, 11 went quickly and stabbed 1 two times in the chest but 1 managed to stab him three times in the chest before both died eventually 4, 8 and 12 had an argument over whos fault this all was before 13 stepped in and shot all 3 in the skull, resulting in only 13 and up being alive

YES, I remember that. It was the first and the page was archived. But I can't remember the format e621 was using originally. So, I could't find it.

I didn't feel bored when I came here.lol
我真的不无聊，真的。

Gotta get my comment in here, this seems to be the only place I feel posting a comment has some meaning. I've been here for around 5+ years, weird that it took that long before I thought to dick around with the url to find the oldest post. To any future historians out there, the first 12 posts were lolcats, and while this post is gone from here, someones earlier comment contains a link to the wayback machine archive of what was once here. To all you coming here after me, welcome to the beginning! Read the comments, they're fun, even if they repeat themselves. It's like watching generations pass on a legend through the words in their comments

swaren said:To any future historians out there[...]

Wow, more traffic than I expected.

Sheeeeesh

So, this is it. This is where my journey ends at the oldest post on this site. Too bad it got deleted. If posts 1-12 acutally existed and were lolcats, I wish they kept those. Would be an amazing piece of history.

Damn, the oldest post remaining, fucking wild

"this post was deleted"

I feel like I'm entering a sacred temple.

Rest in pepperoni, legendary image. But at least the comments section still stands! 💪

for some reason there's a child post attached (https://e621.net/posts/3228406) but according to the tags this is likely not what you were looking for? still funny seeing "parent post: 13" under that post though

Next one still exists on e621 right now, enjoy while it lasts.

Dang, earliest post I can find and it's gone. Wonder what it was like.

What's up guys! It's Quandale Dingle here! (RUUEHEHEHEHEHEEHE) I have been arrested for multiple crimes (AHHHHHHHHHHHHH) including: Battery on a police officer (WHAT), Grand theft, Declaring war on Italy, and public indecency (RUHEHEHEEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE X2 speed). I will be escaping prison on, MARCH 28TH! After that.... I WILL TAKE OVER THE WORLD

Weird to think how long this site has been around. Anyway, I’m writing this to be in some sort of historical e621 documentary in 200 years from now

Just leaving my mark here, that's all.

anyone know how to find the actually image? i tried the wayback machine and the latest it was recorded was 2020 march or something

bobodaapplehorny said:

You have to use the old url for posts. Nowadays it's /posts/13, but it used to be /post/show/13. The wayback machine will work with that one.

Rest easy now travelers, you have reached the last stepping stone that still remains on this realm. Going any deeper than this, there is no path that remains. Tread softly, the spirits here wish to stay at peace. Little is known about this place, only the sparse details of its existence remain. A dragon, likely a mother, breastfeeding a youngling. Beyond here, we know little to nothing of the first posts, only speculations.

What happened???

The beginning of it all is this

I tried googling "lolcats" and from the results im gonna guess the first 12 images were prolly uploaded by the site developer as a test, and then deleted after the test was confirmed and the site was unlocked to the public to upload.

That is atleast my theory.

I guess I should leave my mark here.

It’s time for you to look inward and begin asking yourself the big questions: What is e621, and where did it come from?

Hey gamers.

Dear user friends, welcome to the origin of the E621world: ID=13

Real

L

Guess I should pay respects as well.

I actually got here by manually adding to the number until I hit 13. Can confirm: this was the earliest porn on e621. It all started with a dragoness breastfeeding her son, by an artist who is now DNP...

...I wonder if I can find the image...

Truly a historical landmark

ah the first surviving e6 post.

Only first survived post in e621

I suppose it’s almost funny that this amazing sh*t show of a glorious horny site, was started by an image that has now succumbed to the undoer of all society, that being greed.

How did it look like?

how did I get here? way to much fuckin free time.

been sitting here for like 30 minutes now. Maybe I should get back to this lecture study… nahhh

aliens will discover this one day

hi time travelers

Before commenting, read the how to comment guide.

13

Sometimes I come to this post and to the next post. I read through the comments, seeing how pfp styles change, writing styles change, and the gradual increase in comment density over the years.

Makes me think about birth and death.

It makes me wonder about how and when this website will die.
Will it be overtaken by a better site? Or will it fade into oblivion along with furries as humanity expands ever further into the cosmos, forgetting their blue dot and the life that was once on it? Or will it be wiped out by nuclear weapons along with the entirety of mankind? By the weapons that hinge on a few dozen men to not lose it to not end nearly all life on earth.

(Sorry if this post comes off as incoherent rambling, my 2am posts has never been the best.)
