My first thought when I read Putt's announcement was to ask myself "When did the DDOS happen?" and "What was posted to pizzagate prior to the DDOS?"
I also browsed through deleted submissions to see if there was anything worthwhile.
https://voat.co/v/announcements/2165876 - Putt posted an image showing the DDOS started around 9/29.
FYI If you hover the mouse over when something was posted for example, "4 days ago" it will show you a precise time.
So, browsing through 3-5 days ago, what threads did you think were most notable, and why? I didn't see anything downvoted into oblivion, a few -1s and -2s.
The other possibility of course is that the site has many enemies for various political reasons and that taking advantage of voat's changes in code just was an attack of opportunity. What do you all think?

Was having trouble connecting Tuesday morning, so I was off looking at DoS maps and stuff... did you know that there are hackers that will DoS flood a site for only $150 a week? Sad what the world has come to.
