If PuttItOut (or whatever his name is) is gone or perhaps unavailable to the threat of this website or if for other reasons a new site is needed/desired. I have the ability and willlingness to create it.
Where I would need help is: I think we need a few trustees (I mean freedom of speech types that are willing to be available and help make important decisions here forth known as the "counsel of goats"). I do not know what the state of the code is, but even if it's a complete rewrite my offer still stands. I do not know how to keep the site up, technically yes but a big no from the stand point of fighting those who would take it down.
What stays:
I think I could transfer over users and "points". It would just be a matter of PMs and proving you have access to your older account. Your username and rank would carry over.
What changes I would make:
Little as possible however I would be more willing to shadowban, have a secret shill-pointing system. I'd also be more willing to introduce backdoors to catch and determine farmers. Allowing users to seemingly wreck the site burying a story only to turn the tables on them. None of this initially just communicating where I am coming from.
What I need:
Basically a decision from the counsel of goats. I don't want to build a thing that depends on only me nor something that we are not going to use. I don't want to be the soul person calling the shots. I need a counsel of goats, to make these decisions and an ability to govern the counsel itself. I think we could automate and poll these things, but there would need to be some requirement that the poll is looked at and considered.
What say ye?

I would rather focus on a censorship resistant and voting manipulation resistant alternative. That's what the world needs. I don't trust voat anymore and 4chan users say admins are sold out. I don't want ANYONE to remove a pic of a dog being tortured, because if this happened, fuck let it be

Yeah that's rough, I wouldn't want to moderate it. I'm of the opinion that art is anything that can be photographed or drawn. I would rather not waste our resources on porn but drawing that line is sorta impossible.

yep that is called freedom. Just move to another sub or set a filter that will hide that kind of pics. But all kind of rules that this is impossible and that face should be blurred and that word should be replaced with a beep makes us whites look like retarded muzzies.
But idk what platform can it be, Blockchain based probably? So you can see it online and in the client?
