There is something seriously wrong here. The codebase has not been updated. The site goes down for days without explanation. No sign of our one and only admin. @Atko comes in to save the day? Wtf?
I've waited a week. So, if @puttitout does not post an explanation by tomorrow, along with an updated canary notice I'm gone.
If you want any of my subs, please post here. First come first served. Regardless of Putt's actions...
Adios bitchachos!
Edit: All subs have been claimed and owner requests sent. No, nobody can have /v/chmod.
Edit 2: I got a response from Putt which is so fucking far out of character for him I recommend everyone run. So long!
Edit 3: Banned

Can't wait to post an update with a new canary... after your ultimatum deadline.

Your post is completely out of character for the Justin I've known for over three years. I'm gone.
Guys: this site has been purchased by someone else and Putt and Atko are under an NDA. RUN!

I could say the same thing. I thought about being nice but you are the one laying down an ultimatum. It gets old. Like you've said, it's been 3 years. Three years of people doing the same thing you are doing now.
You'll see when I have time to make a post that everything is really ok and you are over reacting based entirely on false assumptions.
The truth is no one cares what you guys post(its all public lol), there is no gag order, no conspiracies, just a site with politically incorrect memes and an upward and difficult road just to stay online.
I will miss you, but I will not kneel to you.

'Bout damned time. Good job! The stupidity has reached new levels and the entitlement seems limitless.
Seriously, that was beautiful.

I know right basically said summin like I ain’t your bitch well it is right and proper to let people know this when they just assume the dominant position and want to pawn the honey do list on you for action and content right? Hey, I could be missing something here, summin, summin emotional summin??
Anyway, we are going to be just fine, just look at this happy little goat, this is me right now

Voat has been running around making childish accusations, demands, and wild conspiracy theories. Remember the preview site and all the crap I took for saying it was, you know, probably just a bug? Even when the site came back up, they kept up with the accusations.
Gotta be frank. It's damned refreshing to see @PuttItOut being an actual admin. It's about time.
Also, I kinda like watching the drama. It's better than television! Got popcorn?

Sure wild theories. People were worried. People really like this site. I get the pressure putt is and how tired of our shit he probably is. I'm glad he made an appearance, I'm just waiting for him to give an announcement.
Personally I found it strange that even after a week there's still no official response. I don't think putt is hijacked but I think he's burnout.
@PuttItOut Glad you made an appearance for the second time. Looking forward to the announcement. I hope you understand the freak out and conspiracy theories are solely from people who really enjoy this place and don't wish it to fall.

The wild conspiracy theories are from batshit crazy lunatics. Just look at this thread. LOL Hell, go look at the preview site for the few days Voat was down.
I may have personally convinced a few it was aliens. I'm kind of proud of that work, by the way.
These are not sane people. There's fuck all he can do to make them happy. He'd probably be happier if they did leave. In an earlier announcement, he'd mentioned having attracted some groups he didn't really care for. Everyone always thinks that's someone else. My guess is it's the batshit crazy people who make constant demands, accusations, and complaints. Well, that or the nazis. Nobody really likes nazis except other nazis.
I wasn't doing anything with that karma anyhow. ;-)

There's definitely some mentally ill fuckers here. I can't imagine wanting to spend my time undermining a website or my host nation for that matter.
I've said it quite a few times, something does stink. But if I put myself in Putt's shoes the wretched smell comes from the captain insano's.

During the outage, I set it up to host the guitar and music goats on some of my web space. Multiple people asked me if I wanted to host a backup or new Voat.
Nope. Not a chance. Not on my list of shit to do. If I could have added a middle finger to my declining, I would have.
