To the Phuk'ers:

Thanks for letting us crash on your couch while we get things sorted, if they ever do get sorted. Voat and Voat'ers are an abrasive bunch and an acquired taste as guests, but we mean well and intentionally poke at belief and dogma as a means of truth finding. Insulting, yes. Infuriating at times, most definitely. Malicious and intentionally inflammatory, rarely, and there's the difference. The environment reminds me a lot of this scene: I Want You to Hit Me! If you get this scene, you get us.

Voat is a bare knuckle family who values sharp-stick dialog but are still all family at the end of the day (yes, even that sane-I-swear person who I will not name) and overall (mostly overall) respectful of guests and hosts and will do our best to show it, even if it rhymes with trigger or maggot - terms of endearment, honest! So please pardon the muddy shoes on your carpet while we acclimate. We very much appreciate the courtesy extended, even if we use vulgarity to express it. Thanks.

Hi

We are already acquainted with Voat. All of the admins and most of the users used it 2-3 years ago.

You might want to wait until after you see the bill, to thank them.
:)

If you get this scene, you get us.

Oh, we get you. Many of the Phukkers are Original Goats (OGs?) that paved the way for you. Some still are Goats, for others, the volume got too loud.
But we know where you're coming from.

You're welcome here now, and even when/if Voat is back up. It's not a Voat competitor, it's a companion.
We have different volume and mood settings.
