@Undo possibly? My own server is in use, and while there's some spare capacity I don't think it's enough to take metasmoke's load. Buuuut... there's the server that's currently hosting Redunda, which is one of @ThomasWard's - if he's happy, we could potentially host on there.

@SmokeDetector naa- Gonna call NAA on this one, as all it's really doing is redirecting to an external resource, just with a script instead of a link. You take away that script, it's got nothing. Link is dead, as well
heh. let me get some food first. I havent eaten since lunch yesterday
but I'd be happy to run MS out of my server cluster.
@Das_Geek Well there’s a few other considerations about the ‘cloud’ - namely some data should be kept in a way that isn’t remote-accessible from the world :P
Or to other sysadmins, so running out of my lcluster makes sense :P
@Undo will an Ubuntu 18.04 box do or do you need a specialized OS for deployment?
working on prepping a server now :)
'cause i'll need to coordinate with you and Art for initial deployment / migration but it's entirely doable :) (I've got more than enough resources to run this)
is the ubuntu server OS any good? Used CentOS for anything server-y as I hated the ubuntu frontend and at the time and based my decision on that xD primary use: web server
I bought my daughter one of the cheap Kano kits (Raspberry Pi 3). After she ran their stripped OS into the ground I put Raspbian on it. Which is the only Debian flavor I like
@Undo well as indicated to you on Keybase chat, server's fully updated and ready for you to do anything necessary to deploy :) Let me know when we're ready to do any testing and I'll turn on the web access rules :)
@SmokeDetector spam That website was tp-ed before, with similarly-named users posting the link. Definitely spam
Looking at the reports containing the domain I just gave feedback to, it looks like every single one of the reports uses similar language and always contain certain phrases like ending with "hope this helps". I think these are all posted by the same user, and I think all the reports should be tp
@Makyen Can you weigh in on the theory I posted here? I could argue for the feedback for all those reports being changed to tp and blacklisting the website, but I could be overzealous
@SmokeDetector tp- The whole body of this question is text copied from the formatting guidelines, and it is unrelated to the topic given in the title. I don't think I'd red-flag this, but I'd definitely be willing to have a system-level block stop it. This may imaginably have resulted from a mistake, but no more likely than a body consisting entirely of nonsense, and I don't think this is any better than that.
