An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.
Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.
I'm so sorry, LaPerla. This looks like mob mentality to me. You're wicked smart and holding your own if it's any consolation. Please don't let this thread or a few members discourage you from getting the information or support and information exchange you need. Also, love the LaPerla screen name.
This "mob" is trying to protect your ability to even be here at all by vetting potential trolls or spies who want to shut this site down. You're welcome.

My previous comment herein was pointed to nobody at all, it was just a general notice, which i still mean it. Moreover, i'm not here to argue or fight, i have already enough anxious mind.

So I woke up to this wonderful thread, and everything has been said. Just to reiterate, people are skeptic in order to protect this forum, not out of any evil purpose.
@Blackjack, wanted to throw in that I think there is a difference between polling for age like you did vs for your worst deeds, worst fears, etc. The worst fears poll, for instance, was created by a user who eventually got banned.
Rachel wants sweet popcorn.
You lot really have made my day. I missed the action lastnight but just read this thread in tears.
Stan I salute you sir.
La Perla as I stated before, there have been some threads of late that have been started to cause a riot and draw attention to SS.
I'm not looking for friends on here but I've made some. For us to be joined on a forum like this where our lives are a living hell is something rather sweet.
Thanks and don't worry, I am used to this type of people even in real life...
Lol I know really well what this type of people like to read and the replies they like to get.. Its so easy to manipulate them and make them THINK you are a perfect person or someone with good intentions or their FRIEND.
What If I tell you that I might be one of the users defending @Stan? Yes a friend and an enemy at the same time. Think about it and you will understand what I mean..
That's what they don't know.

Also wanted to add, about all this 'If they were trying to bait, they would earn trust first' argument. The suspicion is not that they have the intention of snooping by gaining trust, it is all in the open anyway. The suspicion is that they are trying to gather evidence that this forum hands methods out like candy to people in crisis, minors, etc.

Okaaay! Where did I say I have two profiles? Where?
I said that to show that people can easily switch from a good person to a bad by switching profiles.
When we can't separate that opinion from the person we walk into some rally murky waters. Imagine a scenario where a ruthless dictator like Josef Stalin is responsible for finding the cure for cancer and wants to give it globally, for free to all sufferers. Then imagine Mary Poppins saying that this cure should cost people £1 million pounds per person. Can you separate the opinion from the person?
I don't need or want defending. The opinion needs to be 'attacked' or defended. And this thread has just basically lost that which in itself is a crime.
Getting accounts like this banned is somewhat pointless. Their account or accounts get banned. Then they pop up in a few hours as a new member and then the wheel turns one more time and we are back to square one.
I was reading today about a new phenomena on the internet called "sadfishing".. This site withe people and all their personal struggles whether it be physical or mental is rife for those type of people and the predators that feed upon it. Regardless of my humour before, I am truly saddened that the principle and objective of the original message has now been belittled and tainted by what transpired after.
