I think this post should be left up. Rules are meant to be followed but they can also be ignored in special occasions, and I think this warrants that. This is definitely a problem and something that needs to be dealt with and people need to be aware of.
Unfortunately, I don't have the power to un-delete it. I've already brought the issue up to the other mods, perhaps we can bring it up in next week's open thread with a solution. I do agree that this needs to be seen. I had no idea this was the case and archiving the link once a week would probably not be a big inconvenience to us.
I wonder why voat doesn't allow mods to undelete like reddit does?
I think the mods should have a thread about it as soon as possible, so many threads get removed, that means even more potential for stuff to be lost between now and next week.
This really sucks, I know there were some good threads that got removed weeks ago...
No, I'm trying to work with you to find a solution. Ideally if we use archive.is or archive.org, anyone would be able to see it. Yes, I did delete you already because the post violates rule 4. I'm not sure what else you'd like besides an archive, since this is a Voat issue and not a mod issue.
If newcomers get here and click "modlog" they won't see the archived posts. They would be given the archive link specifically.
Also, archive has been known to fail.
So your solution doesn't work for two reasons.
I will bring it up with the mods to add the links to the stickied post. The archive thing I really don't think I can do anything about. Again, this is a Voat issue, not a subverse specific issue so I literally cannot fix it. I can only archive.
Yeah "bringing it up" isn't gonna do shit and talking about it at next week's open discussion isn't gonna do shit. Moving away from voat is the only thing that will help

Do the mods know about it? I'm sure it's likely they weren't aware it only went back 8 pages.

They know now and weren't aware before.

I did not know that was the case. I'll start a conversation with the other mods to archive every 8 days.

Yeah I agree. I'm going to push to have action taken quickly, and I'll archive the link right now so nothing else gets lost.

thanks for working with us AB!

No problem at all! Here's the link to where I archived it - http://archive.is/vkUvy

That's it? An archive? Do us peons get to see it?
Also, you deleted me already. So you want pizzagate users to be ignorant of this issue?

Dude I'm trying to work with you here. Cut me some slack.
POSTSDELETEDFOREVER ago
No, you're not, and fuck you because if you had honest intentions you would be
1) freaking out realizing that posts are gone forever
2) encouraging users to find a new site until this site-wide issue is fixed
3) not deleting this information more quickly than you've ever deleted anythning
Instead you're arguing and trying to make voat still work out. It's not gonna work out, sorry mods!

I posted on pizzagatewhatever, pizzagatemods, and here (even though I know it won't last long).
I was trying to go way back, got tired of hitting the Next button and started entering a page number. 19 is the highest it goes.
