  • Hey Guest,

    Today, OFCOM launched an official investigation into Sanctioned Suicide under the UK’s Online Safety Act. This has already made headlines across the UK.

    This is a clear and unprecedented overreach by a foreign regulator against a U.S.-based platform. We reject this interference and will be defending the site’s existence and mission.

    In addition to our public response, we are currently seeking legal representation to ensure the best possible defense in this matter. If you are a lawyer or know of one who may be able to assist, please contact us at [email protected].

I find it quite active actually but that's because I'm more active now. Maybe there were more people when I didn't browse around SS.

There's apparently another section where you can only see it if you've been here long enough and have enough posts. The Sanctuary I think it's called.

Not sure how many?
Would have thought it would have been more people due to time of year
Yeah I'd have expected that too, I think Christmas usually sees an increase in suicidal people, and this year I'd have expected it to be even higher than normal.

Well when you lose some of the regular posters who gone on their own way, there's a drop in activity. It'll pick back up again.

Wasn't that the reason the original pro choice forum was called Alt.suicide.holiday?

I agree that the forum has grown comparatively quiet lately. It's not because of the so-called sanctuary, though. I estimate that at least 20 times more posts are submitted in the general forum than in the private forum.

Yes Gromit :-( I have one more Avenue for SN that I'm waiting to fail and if or rather when that happens I think the only option for me is partial hanging but it fucking terrifies me and I'm gonna need to practice - as for time frame it's not gonna be any sooner, in fact I'm worried i will have to delay to muster up the strength and technique to do it :-(

I was never a massive poster, more a lurker, but sometimes it's hard to find the energy to browse SS. Guess it could be this, coupled with a few very active users leaving recently
