Hi. It’s true that the absence of the big forum drove me to come here, but perhaps we’re actually better off in this smaller group. Having to introduce yourself properly right from the start weeds out the typical time-wasting fantasists. Maybe this site—like the smaller ones from back in the day—will actually make it possible for us to meet up in person, share a beer, and enjoy a good barbecue with our buddies while keeping an eye on the sausages cooking :)

Depants on the people if they stay

It depends on what they’re looking for—whether it’s making friends who can understand them or acting out a fantasy. I prefer talking to the former.

As things stand now, we can't take it for given that the other forums will be back. Not having to deal with desperate pronhounds, or "Firstexperience seekers" does have something positive.

100% that it will return, there have been several days of downtime before.

Sure they have been down before. Due to technical problems. This could be something else. or not. Nobody really knows. I just have my tthouht when 3 sites go offline at the same time and the server owner/manager can't be reached.

It's been awhile since I've posted here, how's everyone doing tonight?

The domain addresses are alive and the error message is running from somewhere, so I don't suspect a police case. I also doubt that the two separate servers would go down at the same time. Only the admins and the software are the same, but they don't run on the same hardware. The third option logically remains, that it is under antizoo attack, which was more clever than the previous ones.

There was a case where a three leter agency kept a p... site running for a shorter while for investigative reasons. The antis might be able to nuke sites by their attacks, but they can't prevent one person from contacting another person.

There have been other times when there has been no response for days. During a police raid, they will not leave the domain addresses running and Sloppytaco will not post an error message under the ZV domain. If the police were breathing down my neck, I would not post an error message anywhere. It is even more likely that they were shut down due to the rules of the hosting or internet access provider. It also takes days for them to find a new one.

Good morning. Yeah, maybe some domain owner went to horny jail, who knows

Jesus. That’s a very dark way of saying someone’s life just got ruined when you use it in that context. But keep doing you banana.🍌

I see zero chance of that.

Paper dragon, you don't actually think some domain owner got busted by dome federal agency do you?

I don't know why it's impossible for some groups in the 21th century to run a website reliably, but I go believe it's some technical glitch only

It's very expensive to run a high traffic website, while 90% of providers don't allow it because it's porn. And redundancy and other services only multiply the price. The task would be easy if it were a traditional website, but ZV is not. :D

Idk. I thought you meant that. Nvm.

Most likely scenario floofy tested his ar15 or flamethrower and destroyed the server unintentionally

Sometimes I ask myself ( I will not get an answer whomever I ask) why someone takes the trouble and risk to run and pay for a free-zoo-porn-to-the-people site: Fausty also did it, he had his own business model for the "financial aspect".

ZV is paid for by donations and advertising. ZCA is paid for by a friend who has a lot of money. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
