God these people are fucking clowns. I was going to put off on this migration but it seems now I have no options.

Digital Ocean is now my current bet. Alternatively, I have a more expensive host in the Netherlands that I can use. Discuss.

Edit: We're moving to a french company. HON HON HON TBH

So... no arcade?

 

[Billy of Hills]

move kiwifarms to a .onion domain and self-host, it's the only way to be safe

 

[Pandas Galore]

What do we do that is considered illegal or harmful to them or their customers?

 

[Yellow Yam Scam]

Make that goof in the wheelchair host it or something.

 

[stets]

Dude thats gay and unrealistic.

Being too lewd

Spoiler

[ActualKiwi]

I swear if this was because of those SC guys making a report, that's a pretty dick move.

Rich from the Trust & Safety Team needs his own thread.

That's a pretty fucking good question. It'd be real nice if their cease and desist letter actually included anything. This is reminiscent of the Stripe cancellation letter I got that said nothing and refused to say anything.

Doesn't hurt to ask them.

the edgelords at SC made a ticket so i would assume its CYBER BULLYING that triggered Rich from the Trust & Safety team

 

[lolwut]

Looks like the kids over at SC actually got through to Linode.

That's because your members have come in here and spammed pointless shit, unfortunately. You're perfectly free to do the same with your forums, so as Timon said, that's kind of on you.
Oh look, we ban your shitposters....and your members attempt to get our site pulled. Really guys?

[E] Ninja'd, but hey, I quoted the relevant info.

Why does Linode hate fun?

Sociopath Community, nobody likes a snitch.

 

[Billy of Hills]

LINODE IS BLOODY UNFAIR

 

[EI 903]

Cyberbowlin' ain't easy.

Can current donation levels sustain the Dutch one?

 

[Doc Cassidy]

Fucking faggots. Where are we going if Digital Ocean doesn't work out?

 

[Piga Dgrifm]

What law was broken?

 

[Taily Puff]

Alternatively, I have a more expensive host in the Netherlands that I can use.

How much more of a hit is that host? There's got to be a few people willing to kick in some change to keep the laugh-train fueled up.
