The original account was deactivated during a wave of drama that surfaced over one specific ask that talked about removing signatures off of artwork and not seeing the point in them. It introduced a lot of people to the existence of DR and sparked all kinds of nasty stuff like death threats and other things being sent to the blog's owner.
There is a replacement blog that's been actively used since, but it's slow to update.

Oh, it's still around. It had to switch to a new name, because the old admin got into trouble (they were black market too!) and got big time banned from the game.
But meanwhile, the new drama rising is the most weaksauce place ever. Their drama now is basically witchhunting for multis, trying to report anyone's remotely interesting lore, simping for terrible genes (f'cking Keel still sucks and I will die on that molehill), and mock being so so over Plague's actual censoring. But part of that is because everyone who had any opinions on the game got exhausted after the Eyepocalypse and realized that the admins were never going to listen like they used to so they've lost interest in having anything to do with the drama going on.

Interesting, I feel so out of the loop with all that shit these days. I generally just log on, do dailies/participate in festivals for the items and then log off. I was never one to be active around the forums there either, tried to keep a rather low profile due to the witch hunting that plagued the site.
*edit* this post got me my watermelon popsicle!!!! YASSSSSSSSS

This thread has inspired me to return, I stopped playing around ~2015. Any advice for a returning member?
Also, anyone I should avoid?

Honestly stay out of the discords, and avoid any cliques and you'll be okay.
A LOT has changed since you last played though, there's new breeds, a new type of dragon entirely called ancients that can only breed with their own species. Crazy new genes, lots of new battle venues, complete coli rehaul, new features in general, new flash (not flash but idk what else to call them) games. They added a lot since 2015.

Ya, in your account setting page. It costs a lot though, 1500g I think. (you need an account to see links)
Some other things:
The vast majority of the community live on Tumblr. If you don't like the tumblr community then you won't like this community.
If you have old dragons 7 digits or below then they will be worth quite a bit now so be careful and check auction house prices.
Loads of QOL been added. If something was annoying to do before they might have added something to make it easier so best to browse around the page a bit.

I play sporadically and mostly keep to myself and I still mostly enjoy it. Eye types were another big change that caused a lot of drama. Definitely take a look for your old dragons, especially if they're first gen and especially if they're unbred.
