Be safe guys. Posts seem a little more free today since we're expecting them to be removed. But let's say I was a glownigger who owned a honeypot and I wanted people to go wild posting things that would be easier to prosecute them for or do some other kikey bullshit, this would be a good pretense to encourage that.

Not accusing by any means, just coming from a place of zero trust for safety. I'm sure he has his hands full and I appreciate the stress he's going through over this.

Just saying it's a little surprising to take the final backup a few days before the site will actually go down, and he might decide to take another one if he just ran into delays. Or not now that everyone is posting guns and shit.

Just something to consider if you're feeling extra comfortable right now.

I took a final backup yesterday before the shit hit the fan (the VPS is forcibly shutdown).

But you're right to question everything.

Thank you for being responsive and keeping us informed. I mean that.

Does this mean you won't be able to destructively wipe everything from the VPS once it goes down?

I already cleaned everything deem important.

The host gave me some extra time, but you never know.

Better safe than sorry.

I think I misunderstood, you're saying you still have access but took the backup yesterday in case you suddenly lost access? That makes more sense.

I do hope you get a chance for a full scrub of the vps after migration but before you're kicked out. Here's a few methods that might help with that

Surprised we're still here as well, can't seem to log into chat..

VPS is a virtual server. Basically means the computer that's running poal. The company who owns it told us to kick rocks so we'll have to set up a different computer to do the same thing. It's normal for this to take a few days or longer to set up, but jews own everything so it's a extra big headache for a site like this.

Also those are bats dude, this is bat country.
