You guys know the Voat drill when Reddit bans something:
Single file lines!
Voat is too broke to get real servers so we must take turns. We must act civilized and share in an orderly fashion or else it just ends up looking like a Black Friday nightmare around here and no one wants that.
So pick your time slot and stick to it, no cheating. Everyone has a 30 second window to Voat. Go.
Sorry about the downtime and slow responses, it's the best we have in Free Speechland at the moment.
Edit:
I hate receiving donations for a few reasons but here is Voat's BTC address if you feel called to donate: 3NZvuAk3Csf1UP1KCmzN9dhiXTwvhTgr9k. Please only donate if you have the means.

Hey there everyone I'm one of the r/conspiracy users and I'm sorry for the huge influx you're about to get but wanted to thank everyone here for the hard work you've put it to creating a legitimate alternative.
[–] Artofchoke 0 points 209 points 209 points (+209|-0) ago
We welcome you guys,. Crudely, perhaps, but we do! ♡
[–] Ingy2012 1 points 133 points 134 points (+134|-1) ago
Thank you so much! I can only imagine how annoying it is to those of you who have been here for awhile but maybe this us the start of something bigger. I hope I can help contribute!

Was r/conspiracy banned? There have been a few this time and I've lost track
[–] furiousg3orge 1 points 72 points 73 points (+73|-1) ago
Yup, they are pretty sure they are on the chopping block. I checked there before I came here. Between the crayon chewing Q haters and the limp wristed soy boys it's a mess over there.
[–] Ingy2012 0 points 53 points 53 points (+53|-0) ago
Not yet but there is talk of it.
[–] BillyBobBoJangles 0 points 32 points 32 points (+32|-0) ago
Even if it's not, it has always been heavily censored.
[–] Rainy-Day-Dream 0 points 32 points 32 points (+32|-0) ago
they had some issue a while ago but I forget the details
[–] cthulian_axioms 1 points 43 points 44 points (+44|-1) ago (edited ago)
Fucking hell, did those cucks ban /r/conspiracy? It's a bold strategy, Cotton -- let's see if it pays off.
[–] FindingTruth 0 points 22 points 22 points (+22|-0) ago
r/conspiracy has been compromised for a while now. It has become more clear the last 6 months or so. Even the Donald forum there is going down the same road.
[–] Agrianian_Javelineer 0 points 17 points 17 points (+17|-0) ago
No its still up.

[–] LostandFound 0 points 140 points 140 points (+140|-0) ago
Old question but by any chance we can support you in some way? Appreciate taking money for running an 'edgy' site has its own complications.
[–] Skeeterdo 1 points 91 points 92 points (+92|-1) ago (edited ago)
My understanding is the funding for the site was removed?? By credit companies or something?? Someone else can offer more insight.
Pretty sure there's a bitcoin donation but I don't remember how to access it.
Edit: every resource this site had was attacked and removed nefariously. Same goes for slimgur. Slimg. It's been a wild ride here.
[–] go1dfish 0 points 101 points 101 points (+101|-0) ago
The censors at Reddit aren’t content to curate their own experience.
They want to deplatform people; so they attack sites that support free speech through campaigns against advertisers and payment processors.
[–] HST 0 points 66 points 66 points (+66|-0) ago
Yea I don't know if that wallet is still active, but all the payment processing companies (think PayPal) have rejected voat.
Last I heard there was an "angel donor" who put a ton of money into voat. But that was at least a year and a couple months ago.. Right after we almost went bankrupt.
[–] LostandFound 0 points 28 points 28 points (+28|-0) ago (edited ago)
I understand theres no way to currently give donation, dont even have an address to post some cash!
[–] Hmmm 0 points 25 points 25 points (+25|-0) ago
I can pay in crypto.
[–] gabara 9 points 52 points 61 points (+61|-9) ago
What if you had to buy downvotes to spend?
[–] Wowbagger 1 points 48 points 49 points (+49|-1) ago
The problem isn't a lack of ways to make money but rather the inability to accept money through payment processors. We've basically been blackballed from the most common ways to process digital payment.
[–] LostandFound 4 points 43 points 47 points (+47|-4) ago
Shiit man you could keep the site running solo in that case. Gabara takes one for the team, nice
[–] Ingy2012 1 points 27 points 28 points (+28|-1) ago
I actually really like this idea.
[–] kneo24 1 points 23 points 24 points (+24|-1) ago
How much per downvoat?
[–] EndTheFed2 2 points 21 points 23 points (+23|-2) ago
How much is it to run voat monthly?
[–] Honey_Pot 1 points 21 points 22 points (+22|-1) ago
500 shekels, but for you, I can do 350.
[–] matthew-- 1 points 1 points 2 points (+2|-1) ago
This.
[–] l_voated_today 0 points 16 points 16 points (+16|-0) ago (edited ago)
To piggyback, I not big on handing away money but I would be interested in paying to run some more advertisements.
[–] OneHotLilPotato 4 points 112 points 116 points (+116|-4) ago
never thought id make a voat account but here we are. does anyone else realize how big the implications of this are? Reddit is willing to lose alot of its user base just to push an agenda. They really are out to get us.
[–] SGM11Z 7 points 106 points 113 points (+113|-7) ago
Obviously, Reddit doesn't care. You can cancel your WaPo subscription too, and they won't care ether. Neither does Nike or Dick's sporting goods, or really anyone. Welcome to the new world order where you don't matter and they don't care....which WHY WE ELECTED DONALD TRUMP!!! Keep it up dummies....

In the words of the late great George Carlin... “It’s a big club and you ain’t in it”
[–] Clinker 0 points 9 points 9 points (+9|-0) ago
Starbucks, NFL, ESPN and now Levi's just don't care about business any more. Google/YouTube doesn't care about revenue. It's pretty amazing.
[–] shrink 0 points 52 points 52 points (+52|-0) ago
This is not exactly surprising, we've all known this would happen for a long time. TPTB are perfectly okay with burning money at a loss if it means pushing the propaganda and/or controlling the narrative and information. It isn't just plebbit, either, it's big tech as a whole, and the reasons for (((why this is the case))) will become evident if you don't already know.
[–] Dark_Shroud 0 points 51 points 51 points (+51|-0) ago
Reddit peaked in 2014, bots and scripts have been holding the site together since then. It's why they hide most of the site data. It probably also drives them insane that the Donald Trump sub is still the one of the most active large subs on the site. Because most of us have litterally been quarantined from a good portion of the site by auto-banning scripts just for posting in the Donald.
If you're looking for some alt subs I might be able to help, just ask.
[–] AlphaOmega 0 points 26 points 26 points (+26|-0) ago
I’ve always thought that the actual population of organic users has dropped and any increase in users/activities were either bots or paid shills.
I think what happened is PAC’s and political billionaires started covering Reddit’s losses and making them look profitable. This has radicalized any left leaning organic users on the site, basically turning them into repeater bots themselves.
[–] binturner 0 points 9 points 9 points (+9|-0) ago
I think a lot of trolls and shills invaded. Possibly caused trouble with repeated down votes
[–] Manta537 0 points 8 points 8 points (+8|-0) ago
Yep. And /thegreatawakening was on its way to be as large. I joined when there were only a few hundred subscribers (/cbts was still active). I grabbed a screen shot from yesterday morning and there were 71,034 subscribers on tga. We were growing exponentially.
[–] hairybawbag 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
You're probably right. Here's some info I found today after hearing about /r/conspiracy . 2013, Reddit removes blog post saying Eglin Airbase is the most addicted "city". Here's a paper about Eglin being used as part of a program testing the power of online astroturfing/propaganda: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1402.5644.pdf

r/GreatAwakening alone had 70k subscribers and who knows how many lurkers. Can voat handle the influx of users?
[–] NoisyCricket 0 points 66 points 66 points (+66|-0) ago
Neon Revolt said the real count was almost 300,000 subs. Web traffic says roughly a million viewers.
[–] CarolinaQ 2 points 39 points 41 points (+41|-2) ago
397k

Yeah, about that. You’re not a patriot. You’re a traitor to the republic. You’re a civic nationalist, a zionist, and anti-American in ideology. You’re among patriots, yes. You’re just not one of us.
Think on your sins.

I had similar problems. In fact, I can't log in with the account I first created (maybe I used too many funky characters in my password), so I've had to come up with a variation to try again. It (the website) seems much more usable than a few hours previously, though, so here's hoping for a calmer experience for future visits.
