Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

What are your thoughts on the tourniquet method? I'm having trouble with partial because my body wants to lay down when it starts to black out, so I can't stay in it long enough to actually black out.
I got tourniquet to work a couple of times, but I wasn't ready then. Go figure when I am ready, I can't seem to get the same result.
If I could just power through the feeling on partial I know it would work. But for some reason, the faint feeling in an upright position just isn't tolerable to me.
I've found partial to be difficult, but not impossible. I did some dry runs over the holiday and it would have worked flawlessly 1/5 times. I have not ruled partial out b/c of this either, it just takes practice to get it right. It will likely be my way out.

When I test it, it's fine. Because I know I'll be backing out, maybe? But in the moment, when I don't intend to back out, the fainting feeling was just intolerable to me in an upright position. I tried like 10 times last night and just couldn't stay with it. I know I was so close, but couldn't make myself stay with it.

I get what you mean. I tried it standing/leaning and found it to be uncomfortable and especially problematic once the convulsions begin. I found that securing my tie whilst sitting was the best method.
I tied it such way that I had to prop myself up with one arm while securing the tie to fit into the noose. Once it was secured, I sat again slowly, normally, allowing my body weight to tighten the noose itself. My neck eventually was elongated due there being no slack at all, which allowed for more than sufficient pressure on the arteries to make me dizzy and start to black out in seconds.

I'm pretty limited to what I can tie my ligature to. There is the closet bar, a door knob, and very low bar on my elliptical.
I tried using low bar on the elliptical while laying face down, hoping that the laying position would help. But it's an awkward position, and my room is also the main room for 1 of our pets, and she kept booping me wanting attention so I gave up on that pretty quickly.
I almost had it while kneeling, leaning forward but can't get over the panic that sets in when the fainting feeling comes in the upright position.
If I'm laying down it's more like going to sleep.

Not sure. Although, I did see a recent video where a streamer laid on his bed with something around his neck. This circular belt-like object had a ratcheting action. Each time it was engaged or activated, the ligature became tighter. The subject continued to tighten it until unconsciousness was achieved. He was ultimately successful. I'm sure other members will know who I am referring to -- I can't remember the specifics at this time.
