The Last Poster Wins! [v22]

Haha it definitely has not. Photobucket is the scummiest. So many old things lost on so many sites! :(

At first, I thought it was just another stability issue, because Photobucket had plenty of those even before their descent into the dark side. And then I found out all the stuff I had uploaded over the course of practically a decade was gone. No warning about that either. If they had issued an email warning and posted a notice that free hosting was going to end, I wouldn't have been thrilled but I'd understand. Nope. They just nuked everything and everyone thought for weeks that it was just a temporary mess. Why would I pay for a service that does that kind of garbage to their users? So much for that. It's a shame because it used to be great and then little by little, it went to Crapsville.

Yeah I loved Photobucket for how great it was at the time. It had its moments where things went down as many sites do. Then they started taking on tons more ads, went down more and more often, then suddenly this. No warning, no chance to grab and go, just sucker punches us all....and it was super effective, but we countered by fleeing.....bad puns xD
