We may be back (announcements)

submitted ago by Atko

Hey, it's me again, it's been a while!

I isolated the issue and did what I could to bring the services back online.

I am still a bit worried as I haven't heard anything from Putt, but I hope that he's just enjoying a few days off somewhere nice and quiet.

Running voat as a one-man-show is insanely difficult, hats off to Putt for keeping it together, especially with a full-time-job on the side. Please give Putt all the support you can, he definitely needs it. This, once student side-project, has grown to something beyond belief and my initial dreams, and it wouldn't be possible without all of you pulling your weight together. Life is hard as it is, we are brought to this ready-made system with little to no room to change anything, and with free information flow getting more and more difficult, I am worried for the future of mankind in general. Idiocracy (the movie) shows a possible outcome, and I sincerely hope that we don't end up there. Question everything, check your sources, talk to each other in person... and don't get distracted by mindless TV shows, movies, games, apps and god knows what. While you're getting distracted, deals are being made every day to take away more and more of your hard earned cash. (sorry for this rant, but I feel that youngsters need to know before they too get caught up in the machine)

Thank you all for staying put, regrouping on preview.voat.co and all over the web (kudos to 8ch for hosting you (hi Hotwheels!), and even organizing your own instances of voat or other similar software.

I hope to see you soon.

Stay safe.

dear @atko @atko @atko @atko @atko, it's sanegoat. i would have loved to help you with your site, but you let criminal paid shills take it over. please note that puttitout allowed an openly transvestite, autistic SJW code voat for a year, puttitout banned 400+ users for upvoting but allowed shills to downvoat brigade freely, puttitout lied freely and repeatedly to the userbase, allowed shills to code in massive levels of censorship, and worse, he hasn't done subverse transfers in over a year.

seriously. puttitout is the worst thing to happen to voat. worse than kevdude or even fuzzywords, because puttitout gave these shills the keys to voat. for example, they have a downvoat bot tied to voat's api to auto-downvoat users they don't like, so as to keep them in -ccp account restriction censorship.

this site is a joke of what it once was.

either take the site back from fatty @puttitout

or i will continue to make the replacement and in a few month, take this site's legit userbase to a land without censorship

voat, i will kindly note at this point that @atko refuses to directly talk about the takeover. this sounds more like kevdude or crensch talking than it does atif colo..
