How to Register and Use Comments and Favorites on Indie Game (indiegame.booru.org)

Updated

Indie Game (indiegame.booru.org) is a booru-style image board running Gelbooru Beta 0.1.11. According to the site's own page, it serves 8,619 posts and offers Register, Posts, Comments, and Favorites entry points. To use comments and favorites, you need an account: create one through the Register link, then log in. Browsing posts appears to be available without an account, but posting comments and saving favorites require being signed in.

What the site offers

The homepage lists these navigational elements:

Element What it does
Posts The main image/post listing — 8,619 posts are served
Comments Comment activity on posts
Register Account creation entry point
Favorites Saved posts tied to your account

The site runs on Gelbooru Beta 0.1.11, so its layout and behavior follow the standard Gelbooru-style booru pattern. The page also shows a running visitor counter (104,809 total visitors at the time of the snapshot) and links to a Terms of Service page.

Registering an account

  1. Open indiegame.booru.org in your browser.
  2. Click Register in the top navigation.
  3. Fill in the registration form (typically username, password, and email on Gelbooru-based boards).
  4. Submit the form and, if email confirmation is required, follow the link sent to your inbox.
  5. Return to the site and log in with your new credentials.

Expected result: after logging in, your username appears in the header and the Comments and Favorites features become usable for your account.

Common snags:

  • If the Register link leads to a page that doesn't load or a form that rejects your submission, registration may be closed or restricted at that time — the page evidence doesn't state whether registration is open to everyone.
  • Username or email collisions will block submission; try a different one.

Using comments

Once logged in:

  1. Open any post from the Posts listing.
  2. Scroll to the comment section below the image.
  3. Type your comment and submit it.

Expected result: your comment appears under the post and is attributed to your account. You can also use the Comments link in the navigation to review recent comment activity across the site.

Notes:

  • Commenting while logged out is not supported on this type of board — you'll be prompted to log in.
  • The page evidence doesn't describe moderation rules beyond the linked Terms of Service, so check that page before posting if you're unsure what's allowed.

Saving and managing favorites

  1. Log in.
  2. Open a post you want to keep.
  3. Use the Add to Favorites action on the post (standard on Gelbooru-based boards).
  4. Access your saved items anytime via the Favorites link in the navigation.

Expected result: the post is stored in your account's favorites list and remains there across sessions, as long as you're logged in with the same account.

Common snags:

  • Favorites are tied to your account, not your browser — clearing cookies won't remove them, but losing your login will lock you out of them.
  • If the Favorites link shows an empty list right after adding a post, refresh the page; booru boards sometimes cache the list view.

What you can do without an account

Based on the page structure, browsing the Posts listing and viewing individual posts appear to be open to visitors — the site reports a visitor count separate from any account requirement. Comments and Favorites, however, are account-bound features. The page evidence doesn't specify any other login-gated areas, so treat the rest of the site as browse-first unless you hit a prompt.

Practical tips

  • Bookmark the login page if you plan to comment or favorite regularly; the session may expire.
  • Read the Terms of Service linked in the footer before contributing, since it's the only stated rule source on the page.
  • If Register doesn't work, the site may be invite-only or temporarily closed — there's no stated alternative signup path in the page evidence.
