The only thing surprising about this would be law enforcement actually taking an interest and moving in on such an obvious hub for child predation. I'm not too familiar with the "Hexxy" who founded the website, but his fursona as on his Wikifur article looks like a cub to me:
Hope the whole staff end up in cuffs.

From what I've heard, that screenshot is from a Hazbin Hotel fandom(?) discord, but I've also heard through the grapevine that ex-staff members have been saying that the police raids aren't actually real but rather it's the higher ups at Bad Dragon that are cracking down on allowing ageplay.

That makes more sense than the cops allowing the site to eventually come back up and run as normal.

Well, they're doing something right for once. BD is already full of shady behavior.

I've heard about that and a schism happening with the staff again. Apparently slapfights amongst them aren't unheard of.

Well, probably in the EU and Australia, mostly. Not in the USA, since the PROTECT Act has been considered unconstitutional, but if it did happen in there... Does that mean F-List has hosted actual real life "cheese pizza"?

I can't say Im surprised given that things have been pushed to the extreme. I remember when the staff came out with an announcement addressing "gooners". Well, that obviously didn't do shit.

F-List is very strict with people even hinting at real life pedophilia, to the point where you aren't even allowed to upload eicons (basically custom chat emojis) that have pictures of real children, even viral memes/reaction images like that "side-eyeing Chloe" or "disaster girl". Are there profiles that have slipped through the cracks? Probably, but that could be said for literally any website with a significant userbase. Unless people report it, it's probably not going to be found.
I obviously can't post proof right now because the website it down, but a few years ago they pushed a rule that outright banned the use of the words "pedo" or "pedophile" or "pedophilia" and banned (and still ban) any profile that breaks that rule.

The site seizure theory is very optimistic. It appears the F-list is hosted by the same people, and on the same server, as e621.net - which is currently up.
It is operated by the Bad Dragon degenerate according to this post from 2015.
It is confirmed by name servers from Cloudflare being the same (CF has a large pool of NS servers and effectively fingerprints accounts by attaching 2 random NS servers to all the domains under the same account, it is extremely unlikely to not be the same account).
The reverse proxy or backend used by f-list redirects to e621 on port 80

The feds getting involved undoubtedly means they've uncovered actual CSAM among its users or hosted on the site proper with admin approval (or complacence). It's the wood chipper for all of them.

I don't know about the whole "Law Enforcement" thing, I don't think the feds would let them go back online so fast. I would wager it is something internal and they are actually saying it's police so the users won't complain.
I wouldn't be surprised if the reason for this temporary shutdown was them pushing some sort of cleanup of pedophilic behavior as a way to keep themselves safe. There has to be a stupid amount of profiles and data to go through, and shutting it all down to run a deep clean sounds like the best way to do it.

The Bad Dragon CEO owns e621 and F-list, it even mentions it on the Wikipedia page. Both are run as a marketing gimmick the same way Google runs YouTube. Its a relatively low cost to keep freaks buying rubber dicks.
Them blinking the website off and removing people working there (I'm unsure if mods are employees or not) probably does mean the Feds nabbed someone for CSAM or such and they're turning over logs/etc for that person.
If the Feds were investigating the entire website, it wouldn't be a few days things and they wouldn't be announcing its already planned back up within the week.
Like someone else said, the site goes out of its way to limit their liability by enforcing rules against anything that gets too close to CSAM (like AI art and whatever) that could get them into hot water. Its not worth it from a business perspective to play with fire when they've got the weirdo furry sex pest market cornered. I'd be amazed if they hadn't gotten a lawyer involved at some point to help them clarify what legally they can get away with.
OTOH it could just be pedestrian mod drama and them rolling backend updates in at the same time.

As with any rule on any public forum website, yes, someone has certainly broken that rule before.

A few new screenshots cropped up and there's more rumors pointing towards a spergout by Remilia leading to removal.

The site was operating smoothly before the unannounced downtime.
