Questionable Questing

I don't know why the takedown either (they may have given Amy advance warning, but if so she didn't read it in time and it would have been on her admin account which has now been wiped; they didn't answer Amy's enquiries after the fact), but there are quite a few things that were in violation of the ToS (I didn't actually read the ToS until after the takedown happened; I just pretty much copied Amy's modding).

There were a bunch of things that we did that were clearly in violation of the ToS (porn, kids posting dating ads, and not being PC enough), and in theory we could stop doing those...

...but there's also the catchall "has a detrimental effect to the goodwill and good standing of ProBoards" and, well, hardcore yandere fans and RL yandere are both pretty unpopular so I don't see how we could stop doing that without ceasing to be Y^2 in any meaningful way.

The simple fact of the matter is that we survived as long as we did almost entirely by virtue of being a ghost town; yandere.org got a hit job, and r/yandere got a gun to its head to kill anything about RL yandere, because stalkers are hated and big platforms don't have the spine to refuse a cancel mob.
