Seems like Voat may be down for a while. Reddit won't get my content ever again so I came here. Want to get a feel for the place before I make any actual submissions.

I get the rules here are different and I can abide by them and be respectful, but I wonder if they will allow the DIYGUNS sub here. Was really excited about that and now that I have everything (almost) I was so excited to get it started.

Anyways if you don't know me I was on Voat since almost the beginning. And stayed loyal to the platform. Yes I am a racist, but I had my reasons and yes I can contain my views within this platform.

Here is to hoping this place can make it longer.

Hi, you may want to take a look at our TOS.

but I wonder if they will allow the DIYGUNS sub here

We don't have any rules explicitly related to firearms, the topic was brought up when Reddit started to ban the gundeals stuff though. We are hosted in the US, and as far as I'm aware, there is no law that exists in the US that would prohibit this kind of sub. Broadly speaking, I think the only two instances in which a gun sub would be banned is if the sale of firearms was happening directly on the site, or if a violent use of firearms was being advocated. Outside of that, there is no issue from a US perspective. The only other thing that may apply here is this kind of content being illegal to view in other countries, which is an issue for the individual user residing in that country, not for Phuks.

Hmm says I gotta be a level 2 before I can make a sub. Interesting concept that I have to say I agree with. Guessing I just have to become active?

I can do that.

Well of course on the personal sales issue. That is not something I would condone myself, but this will show the manufacturing of your own lower for an ar15 which is perfectly legal within the USA.

I will set up the subverse and begin content posting. I only ask that if I break rules you please just say hey.....retard! I got a thick skin and will laugh back of course.

My only ambition with these kinds of subs is to educate and help others so it isn't malicious.

Oh also what is the max users before you guys will crash?

You won't be able to make a sub until you are level 2, which is around 40 upvotes, it shouldn't take long. It's basically so we don't have a flood of new users mass creating subs on the first day of account creation without knowing anything about the site, then leaving them empty.

So far admin deletions have been a rarity to be honest, if that's what the sub is intended for then there's no issue.

Not sure on the exact number but we're in no danger of crashing at all as it stands.

Yeah just saw that lol.

Place reminds me of Voat back in early days. Was fun back then....more than it was as of current to be honest. I will try and see if I can actually get a few others to migrate here. (Decent folks mind you).

Good luck to you on the gun sub ... I'm a big supporter of everything gun related, which you may know from Voat ... will subscribe.

Well boss that sounds fucking great. I am going to live stream this making of the lower so people can see step by step and I have NEVER done this so I am learning too.

We will all see how easy it is. On the live stream I will list all the shit I ordered and where I got it from as well as cost. So everyone will know what they are going to get into.
