Damn I hope so. Every morning I check to see if this glownigger honeypot is still up. Surprisingly it still is. See you faggots on the other side
It's probably more difficult to find a based host than it is to move the site.
I've actually been looking around for providers and when I read the TOS, every single one of them says essentially the same thing: they can take you down for posting offensive or hate speech. So far, I can't find any providers that say otherwise.
As a side note, I host many websites using various hosting companies. I recently discovered that none of my providers actually have a data center. Ok, one has an actual data center (Hurricane Electric). All the others use AWS or Azure and all they do is resell the service. This explains the homogeneous TOS.
I am now building my own small data center. I refuse to use Microsoft or Amazon servers. I won't be big enough to support Poal, but hosting my own sites, no problem.
Makes sense that almost everyone is just reselling aws. Have to figure out how to avoid these boom and bust cycles where everything migrates to a heavily centralized monopolies before figuring out that just means the monopolies own everything.
Yeah agree. Have you looked at Orange Hosting out of Iceland ??. They have their own Dell server Data Centre. Its the same host that Jim Stone guy living in Mexico uses for his site. He's only had good things to say about them, as compared to everywhere else as you seem to have found out. Their TOS sounds straight forward - ' Hosting or linking to Child Pornography etc, and Supporting or sponsoring terrorism' . However as a Hosting Company they state it's not their job to decide on things like defamation, slander, libel etc, so will leave up to Icelandic Courts (not the jurisdiction where the user is based) to make a determination and then respond appropriately . IE, the affected party would have to initiate a case in the Icelandic Court system.
From their FAQ- ' I found content on a website hosted on your servers that I find offensive. How can I ask you to remove it? We are a free speech hosting provider and, thus, the cost of that is that there may be content hosted on our servers that some people might find offensive. Once we start taking down such web sites, then we are no longer a free speech hosting service provider.
However, if you believe you have found content that is illegal or against our TOS, please send us an email at <abuse@orangewebsite.com>
PS. Theres a similar named Small Orange Hosting site out of the States which is well .... governed by US Law for it's TOS.
It's probably more difficult to find a based host than it is to move the site.
Agreed. Once he finds someone and pays for the service, it shouldn't be too hard to move.
Step 1) what does gab use? Step 2) use that
I read Torba builds his own for Gab.
We will be hunted down like rats, just because we wanna say 'nigger'
This sucks, this is literally the last site on the whole internet that I can even use without being banned banned banned over the slightest shit.
I certainly hope so. I'm not moving to the shitty alternatives.

I've been on Poal Chat and can handle it in small doses. It's a bit too much like the early days of IRQ for all-day Poaling.
I tried to make an account on chat but something went wonky, so I gave up. Plus I can't downloand app, my phone has no memory left.
I hope that's correct. I'm wondering if the address will be the same, because that would be very convenient, but I suppose you can't have two sites with the same address at the same time.

There would have to be a point at which the hard-cut happens. https://poal.co can only go to one place at a time.
There are ways to do it. But shhh ;)
You ever thought of hosting a loadbalancer/proxy in such a way that it shields the sites actual host from being disclosed?

Good thing this thread will be deleted...
Gotta say AOU seems pretty friggin' efficient, so I suspect we'll have a smooth transfer.
I keep coming back to see if we're still up on the old servers or whether we've switched.
It's a race to the finish line. Not sure that matters so much, so long as Poal eventually rises again. It is important to deprive the socialists of the positive reinforcement derived from success. When Voat and 8chan fell, the leftist-libtards was quite gleeful...then came the wailing snowflake sobs as both arose like a phoenix from the ashes....the leftist bitter defeat snatched from the jaws of commie victory.
Fuck aou, and this site. That kike faggot resets my score every week.
yeah? well, fuck you too, then.
Fuck aou, and this site. That kike faggot resets my score every week.
And yet, you keep coming back.
So is resetting user scores, being used as a way to deter certain individual users from staying ?? Honest question.
Because the 'Muh algorithm' excuse, seems to be just that .... an excuse. How would 'The algorithm' know what is not a legitimately used downvote unless someone is accessing to see what is being downvoted, or if one is supposedly giving out too many downvotes - then how does that work if using them for the agreed purpose, at the rate of a couple downvotes per week to multiple upvotes per day.
My comment history is available for any bothered to look. I have been faded out, had my points regularly zeroed on an ongoing weekly basis - All while previously regularly upvoting daily and not spamming downvotes _ used to the letter of the downvote system - widely off topic trolls or obvious spam.
I was given a badge within 24 hrs of agreeing and commenting in a couple of different threads about a certain Admin seeming to be deliberately targeting supposed former voat users - whatever , neither here now there, thought the badge was cute.
Then i was faded out within 24hrs after having some inconsequential disagreement with same said Admin about a comment they made, and i said it was provably wrong and suggested they clarify it, which they only kept linking back to their original comment and started getting snarly and dismissive so i just copied the same snarky dismissive replies back. Whatever. Then each week , no matter what, the score kept reverting back to negative 150 - several times. Even after not downvoting , not spamming , not being off topic. The 'Muh algorithm' for all intents, imho, is used to disguise thinly veiled vendettas.
Exactly this. The admins here are literally no different than reddit mods. They just say nigger more. They just make shit up as they go along.
Stop akkin like a jew faggot then
