Please help us by reporting their subs here: /v/reportsrs or by messaging myself their usernames. If we are to protect voat from censorship and the pc culture that has made reddit so "safe" then we must remain vigilant with our down votes and support so as not to allow them to gain any power here.

Voat has already been infiltrated. Long before the blackout which led to a user influx. The opposition registered accounts and set up shop here.

Wouldn't surprise me.

Well, look on the bright side: there's only

SJWs are seldom quarantined for long. This is why many self-proclaimed moderates eventually end up being faced with two choices: Pander to them, or oppose them directly. You are either for their interpretation of 'social justice', or you aren't. I know what side I've chosen. You can't always run away, you must defy them wherever you go.

Well done @Atko this was the best idea

I made /v/askvoaters as an alternative to askvoat if that one becomes an SJW haven. I can't stand SJW attitudes and really value free speech, so no censorship there!

I find it interesting that the OP has the word Gator in his name, since that's what Gamerghazi uses as a slur towards people sympathetic to the Gamergate movement.Other than that, if this is gonna happen, then it's nice we have a sub for it.Edit: Crossed out something that was clearly not correct. I stand very corrected.

My name is a reference to the move the other guys and I've had it since a little after the movie came out several years ago.
PiercingAjarDolphin ago
Ah, it's truly depressing times we live in when a person such as myself get this paranoid. Oh well, I'm glad to be proven wrong in that case.
gatordontplaythatsht ago
It's cool.

I was a redditor that came over to voat as soon as I knew it was a thing, but could you explain exactly what's going on? I hear people talking about how the site is being censored, how so, by who, why? I'd love to help keep voat awesome, but I honestly don't know what I'm looking for.
gatordontplaythatsht ago
It would be exceptionally hard to give you the full run down of the situation as it stands. I'd encourage perusing /r/subredditcancer and then coming here and checking out /v/reportsrs and coming to your own conclusions.
Djongo ago
Can you give me a cliffs notes? Haha. I mean I'm going to read the suggested material now I just feel out of the loop and I REALLY want to help keep this site not shitty.

This is an excellent start.
gatordontplaythatsht ago
I'm trying, thanks for the support!
gatordontplaythatsht ago
True, just notating and sharing all of that info would be time consuming, something I personally cannot commit to.
Sylos ago
I wouldn't doubt it. They all saw the same website we did.
gatordontplaythatsht ago
I've considered adding a trending removals (controversial ones) post on my sub. I just don't have the manpower or time to track them all, and unfortunately /v/undelete cannot be trusted. I'd encourage anyone willing and with the time to do this, and I would happily share the info on my sub.
vanities ago
... Not trying to be a dick, but do you have evidence?
explorevoat ago
look at the sticky in /v/historyporn for an example
absolute proof - if you want there is a lot more info behind this story if it seems complex - it was a month long odyssey that was exhausting and soul crushing - the worst being how these people assign people to follow you around voat and try to find you off voat
gatordontplaythatsht ago
/v/reportsrs I have listed all suspected subs which you can feel free to visit yourself.
sneakybells ago
Can you be more specific. The most flagrant one I saw was about /v/shitvoaterssay.
epik- ago
I think he means this thread https://voat.co/v/ReportSRS/comments/298959
sneakybells ago
Those links are just linking back to subverses not proof of abuse, unless I'm missing something.
Charlie_Prime ago
What does the acronym 'SRS' stand for?
gatordontplaythatsht ago
Shitredditsays, a sub created to shame users with dissenting opinions from their own. It spread all over reddit and they're users now have control over much of the site.
Charlie_Prime ago
Ah. Thank you.
gatordontplaythatsht ago
I wouldn't be surprised if they're using the same bots to list all of our users under their special racists, or women-haters lists.
FFX01 ago
Voat's api is different, they would need to make new bots.
Kabuthunk ago
As long as they know the basics of the code, it can be easily tweaked to work here. It'd be ludicrous to think there's NOT already bots made for Voat.
FFX01 ago
I'm sure there are already bots made for voat, but more than likely, they would have to re-write the bots. Wouldn't take more than a couple hours max.

Good thing feminists aren't computer science majors
