Once a site overseer of one of these places makes a statement saying they are thinking about shutting a site like rthis down, it means this place will be offline in 6 months or less. @system is burnt out. This place will die like the rest of the honeypot forums, but the few dozen of us here will be calling eachother fed kikes on other platforms soon if we aren't already. Remember to kill the feds when they come to your door, it'll give the rest of us more targets when they show up at ours.

I won't miss this place. It was wonderful around 2016 years but it's obviously very different now. There's not much new thought or much happening here. There's some users who are great and I appreciate system for keeping it up but it just seems like an old habit and timesuck now.

Maybe more of this should be happening in more mainstream places now anyway. LOTS of people are jew aware now vs even 5 years ago, so that conversation can actually happen.

Good luck everyone and keep pushing for our people in whatever way you can.

I've been asking about this on some other sites I already see people migrating to.

We've not lost our home just yet, but it's smarter to prepare to STAY here than it is to leave. We've already got our posts and history together here.

Meanwhile, I don't think it's a bad idea to get a copy of our entire history on this site saved and stored for offline backup.

Because I suspect that it's not just the money, it's partly you homos constantly crying "System! fix it whaaaaaaaaa!"

Solve your own shit faggots.

Source- when discoball was talking about shutting down imgoat I PMed him, "shoot me a PO box and I'll ship a bag of cash your way". I meant it. I didn't really upload shit but all the little faggots did and I enjoyed that, plus imgoat was OURS.

FYI- I hope he doesn't pull the plug because that would suck but who am I to demand his time and effort?

Has anyone asked Master_Joo if the JIDF would help contribute? They are getting all sorts of quality stuff here, the White thing to do would be to toss a few shekels into the offering plate.

It just seems to be a common theme. Dev starts making passive aggressive comments about time and money. Userbase responds with money. Site shuts down anyways 6 months later.

Forgive those who are jaded, it's just always followed the same general path of destruction.

He should make a thread outlining the monthly costs and provide an avenue for people to send money.

Only the dipshits missed him begging for money while pretending to not beg for money.

Yeah we missed that, we caught the part where someone was saying maybe they weren't gonna keep paying money to work for free.

What kind of perverted talk is this? What is wrong with your mind that it has that kind of imagery in it?

Go watch a recent Rogan cast, maybe you'll figure it out, probably you are too stupid though.

Im ok with him extracting pay to compensate him for his time and effort. It frankly would be silly for him to give all this effort and money to not be compensated for both. Its easily accomplished. Im sure many of us pay x amount a month for useless apps. Sending system ten buck a month or whateveris a no brainer. This place beats any bullshit “mainstream “ app

Yea, i was paying 4.99 a month for the lime electric scooter app - i never used but for one day - and only signed up for the free unlocks and cheaper minute rate, and then never used it again - 3-4 months later im like oh shit, that's right gotta cancel this garbage.

If it only costs ~$1000 a year, I'll pay for it.

Great. Pm him.
I understand not making it a subscription site, but I’d throw a couple bucks a month in a tip jar.

Same here. I would welcome such a notion. I have immense respect for system giving us this place in the first place. And frankly “helping pay the server bill” is an absolute to me. That is nothing. Im not rich by any stretch but I recognize the importance of this place and would help out monetarily without hesitation. It wouldn’t even bother me if @system made a little income from this. He deserves that. He’s a good goat, and we should have his back.

Perhaps He should create a non-profit LLC for administration/ maintenance of the site - open a Post box address and banking account under the LLC - and anyone willing to hazard the US niggers-handling-my-mail system can send direct money orders (as well as employing a bitcoin et al wallet).

Have a banner on the front page with running costs required for the month.

And a tip jar is perfect.

@system is welcome to do that if he wishes.

If he wants me to pay the bill, he need only ask.

Peanuts compared to old Voat which shows cash isn't the problem anymore or definitely this time. Sure one can get tired but We really need make owners a non issue influencing it be kept alive.
Voat needs stand on its own by default like the (internet) earth we stand on and by.

Not getting a dime from me while he allows users like dangus, and dwb to "own" over half the subs.

Besides, are we genuinely pretending this place isn't funded by the nsa?
