Beats me. I noticed that the servers were alive again, so I undid the redirect.

Where is M7? If these servers are his responsibility and he maintains ultimate control over whether saidit lives or dies, we need to understand better what's going on. There are some productive conversations on here (amid the usual 99% crap of any site), but the instability of not knowing if this is a durable platform does create a lot of stress.
As the others have said, thank you D3 for being the most stabilizing force on here.

this is one of the main problems with a sole proprietorship.. if the owner dies, the entire business crumbles.
this website should be setup to have multiple directors or some other similar structure.
rest in peace, m7

Particularly when the purpose of the venue is the group interaction, I agree that sole proprietorship is a weird model. That said, it's also hard to see how to maintain relatively consistent guidelines without a single guiding mind maintaining a unified philosophy. I can see it both ways.
But from a practical point of view, it may be more pressure than any individual could handle.
If you read this, M7, I do deeply appreciate the effort you have put in here and hope you are well. If the stresses of the position are overwhelming you, I recommend letting it go. Other speech venues will appear one way or another. It's not worth destroying yourself over.
Just let us know what to expect moving forward.

M7 is waiting for a buyout offer for saidit.. if saidit were to become a noticeable nuisance for the other major social media outlets, it would be reasonable to think that he could receive a twenty five million dollar buyout offer.
M7 is waiting for the money, nothing else.

I dig it! Another one dropped today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Snskn7A3ZY0
This all feels way less personal than older MM albums but I'll hang in there.

This sounds almost like an 80’s new wave song lol! I dig this too, but it isn’t something you’d expect from MM at all, I could see a fan not liking this one for sure.
It seems like the album is gonna feature some kinda story telling about life/death/the in-between as well as have a “the nature of nature” theme going on. I like it so far, although it’s different for MM for sure.

I almost saw them live in Austin in 2001, I think. Sold out.
You fuck!! I didn’t even know of them In 2001 lol, I was in elementary school.
By the time I hit highschool I found out about them because of MySpace during its final years. I would have killed for a concert. They broke up maybe two years or a year after me finding them?
Early bird gets the worm, that’s what isaac (the lead singer) would say lol.

It definitely does, I’ve been there 😂 A local popular theater for bands is literally an open stadium floating on the beach. You can hear everything while sitting on the beach there!
Sometimes it’s more fun to hang out in the parking lot and listen to the artist live with a few friends and a blunt or two. Especially if it’s an open stadium.

Yeah... there's a lot of bot traffic. Most of it's behind the scenes, like making dozens of alt accounts to manipulate votes on posts (which is how the iron left troll got his posts on the front page every time).

when i was in the seventh grade, i worked in the school library, fyi.. these forums remind me of walking into a library and hundreds of people are throwing random books at me and screaming at me.
there is no real communications between people, only throwing videos and commenting..
these forums are complete bullshit.

I'm not the one injecting negativity every time the site comes up. I like to participate and have a barrel of fun. You're the one shitting on the site. It's pretty cut and dried.

Focus on barrels of fun if you like. I prefer reality. The reality is, a site that keeps going offline is typically having issues. More has been said about what's really going on, but I don't want to overwhelm you with too much negativity at one time.

I'm not either, though we could argue all day about how you present content and whether it's alienating.
The drama a couple months ago was to expose some of the flaws in M7's social management. The target was never SaidIt nor the community. Because of that it we had motivation and momentum to build alternatives to decentralize. I'd love to tell you everything is fine on that front but I have no clue what's going on and I don't have the technical skills to do it myself. Most SaidIt folks are lazy. The group who wants to help is like a herd of cats. At least I now have a wiki and eventually I'll be able to share it when presentable and perhaps folks will understand some of the decentralization goals and pitch in.
