Like the tittle says.
It's been 30 days since we were told nothing, about some unknown suddenly owning voat https://voat.co/v/announcements/2934082
...it's best to keep some of the details of this deal guarded, at least until Voat gets acclimated to the partnership and the newness fades.
Are we waiting for the memory hole, or can we get some information? Transparency is still a priority isn't it? Or are the goats just not acclimated yet?

The angle investor is being obtuse.

Voat was sold out long time ago. It's now a Honeypot. The investor is.... How do you spell "Unknown" in three letters 0.o
ThisIsMyRealName ago
That's not how this works.
DrSelfAppointed ago
It does if the only information is someone invested in the company enough too mention officially as a savor. As if their investment had all the bargaining chips on a make or break deal. With the only assurance being someone remains CEO without information of who has ownership or what stipulations may exist.
ThisIsMyRealName ago
There was no indication that someone managed to buy more stake in the company than the current owner at that time.

I've noticed this place going downhill for awhile. I miss the old days, same old trope though right? Bunch of newfags and sliders; they can fuck off. Time dust off the troll hat methinks, or just retire. Idgaf anymore, it's all about real world shit for me and this place doesn't offer much new I can sort through. *yawn
PuttItOut ago
Well @Atko and I are still majority owners so I'm in no rush to reintroduce ourselves as the brand new owners. :)

Is it a kike?

So you and @atko still get to call all the shots? Is this a no-strings-attached investor?
ShekelsteinKikeberg ago
Majority owner... for now. There are always strings involved.
Thisismyvoatusername ago
No doubt there is a shareholders’ agreement. The question is what is in it. Generally they don’t contain the sorts of things most users of the site would care about.
DrSelfAppointed ago
Putt, what was the exchange for the funding gained? We need to know.

Voat owners chose to establish themselves, as a company - and no longer a hobby project - under the laws of the United States. Obviously freedom of speech was the primary factor. So my question, which I hope you find fair, is if the partner is not only US-based, but specifically free of corporate or political conflicts of interest.
Also, you are aware we understand CloudFare may be under separate scrutiny than Voat, and there is a coupling of Voat's hosting to CloudFare, would you be willing to make a comment about that relationship or situation?
That said, I'd be curious to ask if you were able to keep full-time employees at this point, and if they are specifically developer roles, or if there's any marketing or public relations positions you may have chosen to include. I don't intend to pry further, but I think these are questions people will want clarification on... and hell, I've been around for a while my nigga and appreciate the good times in all scenarios.
ShekelsteinKikeberg ago
Are we getting kike mods that will censor everything?
Thisismyvoatusername ago
Do you really think it wouldn’t be noticed if we did?
FecalMadder ago
I'd buy some voat dildos to give to the qtards for Christmas.
Onefootwonder ago
I second the Voat merch idea. I'd buy a T-shirt for sure.
DrSelfAppointed ago
well said/asked.
DrSelfAppointed ago
Well hell! Majority owner is significantly different than only retaining directional control! One has insurance while the other is subject to who knows what variable, respectively. So if whomever/whatever invested into this without gaining control, what monetary/concessionary gain did they make? That is really important information.
uvulectomy ago
Putt had to tell him all the secrets to his short game.

If it's benign, awesome. If it is benign, why the hesitation to clarify on day 1?

First thing "putt" did was steal a mod spot in thus very verse for questioning deletion of comments when deleting your account. Something I railed about myself in the past. This place keeps a;; your data, always has.

I'm just glad someone was able to co-sign for voat. But if it comes at the cost of the project going on a tangent I think we should seek a new solution. I'm approaching the limit of my patience with this secrecy.

So far I've seen no change in our favorite little news and rumour aggregation site. Did I miss something? Can we find out if some dollar-loaded Chinaman or an eccentric billionaire took over our home in order to turn it into condos?

just like how the kike-media doesn't give names or races of perpetrators.

It's probably just the boomers and Qtards, but the front page seems to occasionally be half crap.
Crackrocknigga ago
I wouldn't be too concerned until we start seeing censorship, vote manipulation etc. Put seems pretty adamantly against that and he knows the core group of people here would never tolerate this.
Can't say that you're wrong, but it would be a stupid move and against the character that I've seen from him.

First thought to mind is how much I hate users praising growth in the site, or people advertising it. The faster we grow, the faster we die. I see it as we already passed the no return point the moment we had to have an angle investor. It's a matter of time and I assume the only way to slow our demise is through the doubling-tripling of hostility to 'new' users.
No one should be the faggoty asshole that brings in 'normies.' Yet we have an entire group of Q fucks who do exactly that. All starting within the time frame of this Voat-sale deal happening.
No where else at the moment to really go too. The Alts Poal and Voten fall somewhere between shit and meh.
prairie ago
But moar is bettar!!! We need to be populur with the wab rankeng sites. /s
NotHereForPizza ago
Sadly, the normies were so stupid that they all came here and made accounts only to not help at all but instead make things worse.
It was better than them shitting up full.
You could always care less about Voat. It's easier that way.
fuckmyreddit ago
Yes it is sad that the qBombardment group didn't understand the mind and soul of Voat. Do you think they can get snappy and sarcastic like normal goats or are they hopeless? A few of them jumped right in and got with the program. I'm a stupid Boomer and I talk like one. One or two boomers can cozy up in this little cottage without changing the site, but we have been overrun with a fair number of newfags with no sense of humor and no sense of wonder and exploration. I miss the old Voat.
NotHereForPizza ago
Voat was only ever a containment clone. That's what it's always been good for.
Using it as the QRV hub sort of changes that, though.
NotHereForPizza ago
The chans are immune to certain things Voat fails at inherently.
You have no idea what you're talking about.
draaaak ago
Go on...
NotHereForPizza ago
I explained further down.
Beyond NSA control over full, which you'll likely be safer at than at half, the chans have long employed an ethos draining mechanism that filters posters by weeding out faggots that are there for attention or general renown. This is done by removing the identity of the poster at each and every iteration of their posting. Beyond the lack of identity linking by each comment, anons have developed a method of socializing new users that refines what's outlined above - which is to say that information is placed as top priority and therefore ethos of each given user is almost entirely abandoned or ignored. In addition, there's no voting system, meaning that this alleviates a method of corruption or systematic abuse.
There's much more to this, but go ahead and lurk moar so you can find out for yourself.
AEndtoThemForever ago

Rawrination ago
No place is immune to slide threads. I used to be on 4chan back when it was good (InB4 it was never good).
NotHereForPizza ago
Which is very true!
What's more of an issue, frankly, is the username association with postings, the upvote/downvote mechanics, and the coding not being quite as developed as we're used to, among other things that aren't all that worth listing here.

I've humored the idea as well.
Although the man himself didn't come to mind, but other /ourguys/.
I tried something with Putt before and luckily he passed the test, but I've taken precautions otherwise. I'm under the impression for the time being that we're in good hands here. Putt has been good to us so far and we'd be fools to relinquish our courtesy with him. I spoke before with BO and a BV who weren't at all concerned, which helped me be a bit more confident.
Frankly, I think we're in good hands for the time being, if that's worth anything to you.

Thanks fellow goys! Looking forward to "The Empire Strikes Back"!
DrSelfAppointed ago
It is, and it isn't. Putts Track record has floundered recently. Between the Q epidemic and the 'oopsie' that went knowingly ignored long enough to give them the upvoats needed to 'participate' (which circumvented a major tool that stops trolls/faggots;) the sudden interest in making this a 'safe for work' website, which came with a healthy dose of 'oh I forgot to tell everyone I was changing the posting rules because transparency' (that doesn't seem to have taken effect?;) and the whole voat has been purchased, but Goats can't handle the details thing....
Call me paranoid, but this whole betrayed by site owners you thought were good thing has been played out too many times.
When everything is transparent again, I will feel better. Not that I alone matter in it all.
AEndtoThemForever ago
This. Still looking for alternatives.
