Seems somebody may not want the issue discussed. Coincidence? Maybe, maybe not. I'm torn between being bored and enraged. There are groups that would like for me to be either.

Yeah, it's definitely getting weird over there. No information, dev requests aren't answered with a solution, long promised updates/features no longer apparent. /all is 99% politics and very little "common interest' posts. Even when one is posted there seems to always be an unrelated socio-political comment given. Sure there are important events taking place in the US and the world, but there is more to life than rage and hate 24/7. Personally I want entertainment as much as information from a site and I no longer see that there.

Maybe we're a little spoiled on Poal with the almost immediate responses from the admins here, but is it really being spoiled or what one could expect from a site? Didn't Putt say he was hiring staff to help out months ago, what happened to that?

In the end, though, Voat is a free site and it's Putts to do with how he wants. I have no right to demand, or even request, things are done to my satisfaction. I have the choice to visit or not so even though I have criticisms, in the end it's my choice. It's sad because it used to be a great place and I do have to give respect for all the effort he has put into the site. I'm sure it would take a toll on anyone to create and maintain what he has built.

I don't find him or his helpers to be so innocent.

They all got weird after I started to talk about Tencent and this was merely a few months after Reddit was given quite the stimulus by them. That seemed fishy enough and that was before I found out how good of friends Putt is with SBBH.

As I said though, it's a choice to visit there. If you no longer wish to then ragging about them here is like bitching about that ex-girlfriend to your buddies. They aren't going to change and just spreads the discomfort to others. Good luck finding some peace.

I don't think you're wrong but what you've said doesn't diminish the fact that these accusations are both serious and important.

I don't being this up over and over here. I'm fine with not discussing it. However, you're looking like a bit of a hypocrite now... considering that you brought this up and I simply responded to it. If there isn't a reasonable capacity to bring this up on another site, as your simile expresses, then we're in kind of an awkward spot, now aren't we?
