DO got rid of them due to the whole Dailystormer shit. They're being hit hard by reviews right now and not just from randoms, people who actually pay for their service such as it is since people get fucked over hard by them.

Gift cards also require people going outside, spending money, putting something in an envelope, stamping it, addressing it, and mailing it. There's a lot of "I'd rather get a soda pop" time in that process.

But yes, if you send packages or mail to that address it gets forwarded to me. I'll probably get put on a fucking list if I get a thousand dollars in gift cards through the mail by a proxy office, but I'm on quite a few already by now.

I was starting to wonder if that's even legal and then my search query in google looked like "is sending people gift cards through the mail as gifts illegal" and i just ctrl+w'd out of the tab.

I can literally get my Hunting Permit at my post office so one of these days I'll do my part around here, lots of options out there to help out in various countries.

Sorry for the double post.

Why not have one expensive server, and then multiple cheap servers that act as a reverse proxy? Surely, it'd be easier to just replace the cheap servers, if they get take down?

How do you think we're floating mate?

The problem with this nigger rig system is that now we handle about 10TiB of bandwidth a month. It's REALLY hard to find cheap, shitty VPS providers that can even do this.

I did some searching and found this.

Code: 
CPU: 1 x 2.40 GHz
RAM: 2048 MB
SSD: 40 GB (400 IOPS)
Bandwidth: 10 TB
Port speed: 100 Mbps
Backups: Optional
Virtualization: KVM

At a price of 4.99 euros a month, not sure if you'd want a KVM machine though.
 
Just move to Russia, it's the last free place on earth (as long as you stay on Uncle Vlad's good side).
 
In the end the terrorists always win, whether they're driving a truck (or Dodge) of peace or trying to censor the internet.

Semper fidelis to all you're armed forces.
 
wait when did a funposting board for gossip and shittalking turn into a super srs crusade for free speech

did i take a wrong turn somewhere
 
Not sure how other people feel about this but I could honestly care less where troons live or what their phone number is. If releasing current addresses (even if it's public information) throws them into a DMCA tizzy to the point we get taken down, I would rather not continue to rattle that particular hornet's nest. Of course, it stands to reason if we stop doing that they would just find something else to bitch about. However, looking at our usual list of suspects in the Cloudflare reports section, that seems to be the thing that sets them off the most.

Maybe if address/phone number stuff was kept on a non-public board or supporters board only that would help?

@Null I actually wasn't really accusing you of lying or whatever but if that's want you want, ok. I was mostly just interested in your books. I'm glad to see them. This kind of stuff can only HELP, not hurt, your drive to raise money, I would think.

Bullshit. You already trust Null to protect your anonymity - which is arguably a much bigger deal than how he spends donations. Asking to "see the books" just leads to people criticising the budget and making suggestions on how to revise it which aren't helpful. KF isn't a fucking charity. Do you question the expenses of every company you deal with and the lifestyles of its senior staff?

It's not illegal to send people gift cards. A ton of grandmas would be in trouble if it were.

You brought the site back once. Let's see if you can make lighting strike twice if push comes to shove.
 
I never thought I'd see the day where a website making fun of retards would be a cornerstone of Free Speech.

Plus if people are so angry with websites hosting content they don't like, how come nobody's going after Facebook? How many people have live streamed hate crimes, suicides, and murders on that site? I don't see anyone saying that Mark Zuckerberg needs to be held accountable for his userbase.

Even if Cloudflare shuts us down we will manage. Cloudflare has been becoming less and less useful over time.

I was going to ask a dumb question, let's build a KiwiFlare. A distributed system with only Kiwifarms/the wikis etc on it. Or in short another way to prevent against script-kiddies and tranny-paid "hackers".

They go after Facebook and Twitter constantly.

And yeah, KF remains one of the few places where people with diametrically opposed viewpoints can have heated but civil conversations about divisive issues without reeeing and threats.

Exactly this. Unless they post their address right on their own webpage or Twitter/Facebook, I'd leave it out of here. I'd also avoid the "let's threaten to take them down! Derp derp derp!" bullshit. IIRC, that was originally the rule, and people have gotten pretty lax with that. (Not because I care about being nice, but because it's a stupid and possibly illegal idea.)

I like this place, it's amusing, and I'd rather not see it go away. If being cautious can help (as long as it doesn't kill the fun, and I don't see it doing so here), so be it.

This is simply my opinion. Take it for what it's worth. Just trying to be pragmatic, that's all.
