Guys I have some really awful news

Imgur is going to delete everything that was uploaded that wasn’t tied to a user account. Literally every thread in this forum, our entire goldmine, everything will be affected and nothing will make sense when you try and reread it. Try and back up and save what you can

We also have less than a month to save everything we can. The biggest hurdle is knowing what goes where… the sims thread, df threads, 90% of my threads the AGDQ threads, hell the loving IZWF

id ask in the tech forum, but i dont want to be banned when astral starts talking about the copyrighted material that they will inevitably also host

remebering when i asked years ago that they make some sort of scraper that rehosts images when a thread is goldmined and the agreed response from all was that imgur will be around forever so its not worth the effort

Someone made a script to go through every single thread and back stuff up when waffleimages went down. I’m sure something similar is possible this time. Bye.

Yeah go ahead and make the tech support thread, it’s pointless, they can’t even get a loving functioning front page in 3 years, and every improvement is “oh now you can file more reports, this was 6 months of work”

Yes but did it add them back into the threads? The Wormskull Madden thread is still hosed for example and literally every thread in IZ especially the goldmine will be hosed

i want to be optimistic and assume that means stuff that hasn't acquired a single view in X amount of time which means in theory most stuff should be fine but also this is the gayest poo poo imaginable regardless

I’m saying what about old IZ goldmine threads that get like no views except once a year anymore or whatever. Slowly but surely it’s all gonna get hosed without intervention just like photobucket and waffleimages

yeah it's still a good idea to back up what people can in the inevitable event the CEO gets outed for being some sort of sex pest and nukes the entire website, but idk the wording just seems rlly specific if it was every old accountless image

Requested a permaban because people didn't cheer him on when he doxxed someone in an argument about loving gamergate, but I'm not going to go through the trouble of permabanning him, so if he re-regges someone just quote this ban reason so I can ban him again for being a dweeb.

That’s because I used Firefox screenshots which they shut down a year later.
