So long Voat! As of tomorrow I'm out of here. My subs available. (whatever)

submitted ago by chmod

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.

PuttItOut. Thank you for all the hard work you put into maintaining this site. I'd imagine it's not always easy when you want take a vacation or have a busy work/life. We're worried about you and the state of events. We're not asking for a huge announcement post and to answer every little question we have. We don't want you to waste away every minute of your free time to perfect Voat's code. Voaters would be far happier with a quick and simple update on /v/announcements than they would be with you being miserable while pushing code as quick as possible. Enjoy life.

Have a picture.

P.S. /u/chmod is a crusty old army vet. He probably served when submarines still used sails. Those guys can get a little cranky.
