I'm glad to see you here Six_Cents! Lots of the old gang arriving hourly! POAL is quickly taking the sting out of leaving VOAT for me. It feels so similar after being here a day and getting used to the differences. I'm sad to see VOAT go, but in retrospect puttitout is correct to discontinue it because he owns POAL too which is much more stable with a modernized user interface. I think VOAT/v/GreatAwakening was being held together with Band-Aids and bubble gum toward the end, scant resources to keep it going because of no funding.
Agree about Voat and the Band-Adis. Over there now attempting to post and comment and keep getting errors and extended lag time. Hopefully POAL will be much better as far as functionality. The system of commenting and posting does seems to be the same.
I'm still going to stay with VOAT until the bitter end - I ain't no quitter, but will swim over here permanently once I ride the USS Voat into the sea standing atop the screws giving her and honored salute...
I'll be at GFanon's house on Christmas Day, will bring my trusty kindle fire so I can be there to the end too, assuming VOAT let's me log on!
I have yet to see lags or downtime on poal, in my 24hr snapshot of time. It seems far more stable than VOAT. VOAT was a good ship while she lasted, and she always got us to our next destination. Sad, but I am very thankful we have POAL. In time, with slight attitude adjustments, I think we will be happier here.
Time will tell. Hope you and your's have a very Merry Christmas.
