If it is because of money like he said, he should ask goats for money. He might not understand that many people here would pay because this site helps them feel connected. This is not taking advantage of them. This is giving them a chance to save something they love.
Because it is money based, PuttItOut should share information like how much it cost in networking and hosting. I'd bet a dollar some goats work in the industry and might be able to lower the cost.
Last, if nothing else, PuttItOut should keep a copy of the site ( I'm sure he will ). Perhaps in a year or two he could bring it back to life.
We all pay to keep our non internet neighborhood like it is. Paying to keep a site online is the same in most of the ways that count.
PuttItOut, if you see this post, please let us know how much networking is used per month. The more data the better so we can project. Let us know how much hosting is and the hardware requirements. We thank you for the years of service and paying for our community.
It is our community as much as it is yours so if it is within your ability, give us the chance to fix this.
Set up a way goats can contact you even after the site goes down. I suspect they will find a way to get voat back online.
Similar to PuttItOut, I love you guys. Not all of you. Some of you are fucking cunts but I love the fact you are here. If you weren't I'd think this site was being censored.

He has always hated us.

Who are you quoting?

You realize the site is going down in four days, for all eternity, because he refused to communicate with us, refused to listen to our suggestions, refused to create a source of ad revenue, refused to allow us to donate, and REFUSED to ban any of the paid shilling and spam here for six years, right?

4 days - yes ( this is on the "fuck each and every one of you" side )
Didn't tell us - yes
Did not use suggestions - yes
Didn't create revenue source - yes
Didn't know he refused to take donations...
Knew about the shills here. How could I not know?
I tend to be more on the trusting side and think he just didn't know what he was doing in these areas. I also tend to see the light after most. Perhaps you are correct but for now I will give him time and see what happens.

Yeah, saw that. It’s fascinating, and potentially very upsetting. I’d love to see some hard confirmation that it’s what they’re saying it is.
