How can I find out who operates this site?

What specific person, handle, /u/ can we contact? My searches found nothing useful.

.

Apologies if fully answered before.

Hey man, I just got off work. I was on mobile earlier so i had to keep it short.. We're not like a business in a building you can call or where you can go meet the devs or get a job, this place is a hobby and a place to have fun. Until the recent surge, we were just about 20 regular users throwing in each month to rent the $35/month server the site runs on, So we could get away from the normal squawking on the other sites. We have a dozen different people that all chip in and do different things and most of our users are outside the US, so we're on a bunch of different schedules for when we're active. We're kinda all admins in a way.

We have subs if you have an idea for the site, /s/ideasforphuks, report bugs at /s/phuksdev or https://phab.phuks.co which manages all the code, features, and requests that happen, you can /s/askphuks if you want to ask something to everyone.

If you're asking who can you ping for anything, I guess that's me, then I can route you to who is currently procrastinating working on that thing you want to know more about. As far as "operates" specifically, Polsaker and I are the only ones who can break it (usually me), make changes, or turn the site on and off.

Yo, apparently I'm a squawker you've made a lot of effort to avoid. That is not my intention at all and we want the same thing.

I appreciate your response and it answered enough of my questions.

This is a dynamic site and I'm enjoying my time here. I would like to make a timely and appropriate humorous reference at this time to quell any animosity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ

lol, no worries. We've had a bunch of new people who have been abusing the "who's in charge" thing to then ask a simple question about how something works. Then when an "admin" doesn't answer right away, they get mad and rage at the community even though 30 other people could have answered them in 5 mins.

Thank you for responding and including two of the people involved in the site.

This post seems sensitizing to the admins who run this site. Let's ensure their privacy by referring all questions to:

/s/phuksdev

Thank you to devs @pembo210 and @polsaker for clarification.

Answering that would violate the first two rules.

  1. By using Phuks.co, users will agree to and comply with the following conditions. Your account may be banned for an undisclosed amount of time, or removed completely if the following agreement is not adhered to. Additionally, accounts may be suspended for reasons not listed in this agreement.

  2. Optional email addresses provided to Phuks upon account creation will be used for account registration, and will not be shared with any other party.

(Hopefully your post wasn't a Fight Club reference because that would be very Voaty.)

Of course it was.

because that would be very Voaty

Wow, there's some irony buried in there.
Please check your identity politics at the door. It's not a team sport here.

Fight Club "overtly" hides behind anonymity through its existence, like WikiLeaks.

While Voat has/once had a name associated with the site, I cannot find a Phuks' guy or even a way to address issues other than publicly, on a sub.

I'm trying to be coercive. Who is the man?
