Clearing the Cookies enabled me to return but trying to login caused the problem again. Its obviously server based & not a problem on my end if I can access it before trying to login in

It seems that searching for a tag will sometimes give results for all tags that that tag prefixes. For example, for me, searching for may will also give results for may_(artist). However, at the moment, for me, searching for ka doesn't also give me results for kangaskhan or any of the other artists prefixed with "ka", although it did a while ago.
I have never seen a booru-type gallery do this before. Because it's unpredictable, I assume it's a bug, and probably only a minor one since it may or may not disappear with time for any given tag.

Searches generally do not work with keywords shorter then 3 characters. Try "kan" instead of "ka".

The artist's name was literally "ka", although I have now changed it to "kagerofu" because that's another name the artist went by and apparently two-letter tags are a bad idea.
And it wasn't just with two-letter searches. Previously, "lunamew" referred to the artist now called "hatiimiga", and the now defunct tag "lunamew_(character)" referred to the creature Lunamew which the tag "lunamew" now refers to, probably because the artist was formerly known as Lunamew and referred to as such in the old gallery. Now these tags have been changed so that Lunamew is the creature and Hatiimiga is the artist. But before this change was affected, searching for "lunamew" would at least sometimes also turn up art with "lunamew_(character)".
EDIT: Found an example! Searching for the tag after_sex also returns images tagged sex, and searching for sex also returns at least some images not tagged sex, but tagged sex_toy.

Another one for you. Search is not finding all matches for multiple tags.
The detecting searches were as follows: If I search for "female anal anthro", then post#12650, and many others matching these tags nevertheless do not show up in the search results. But if I search "female anal", then at least some of those that match but do not show up with the first search do show up! I can't tell how bad this is. But search results are being omitted to some extent for some queries some of the time!
EDIT: This instance of this bug ironed itself out while I was looking at it!

Man. I went to try and log in to the gallery, and nothing I tried was working. It allreturned with a "username does not exist error." I know I signed up to that one because I did a shitload of tagging awhile ago.

Works fine for me, so it's not a bug in the gallery system as a whole. Have you tried checking your username for typos, clearing your browser cookies/cache and/or trying to login using incognito/private browsing mode?

I don't know what's going on. I tried to reset the password, thinking that might have been the problem, and it said the email wasn't in use.... if there's an email box, I ALWAYS fill it in, and I double and sometimes triple check everything. Is there any chance it was like, deleted or something?

Assumption: You are attempting to log in with the name "Beluinus".
Solution: The gallery isn't connected due to large incompatibilities with the rest of the site, you will need to register for the gallery. There is no user with the name "Beluinus"

Do you know approximately when you did this tagging? Someone could look up what username(s) did tagging during that time frame.
