Updates - Attention Gossipers!

GG netizens, I'm working all day tirelessly to get things back up and in working order, My apologies, but i needed the server temporarily offline to do some changes. i should have it back online today, FYI. Until then, please have patience and we do appreciate those who have been loyal to us for so long. I'm hoping to somehow "pay you back" ... I'm just not sure how yet.... But thank you again for your patience and understanding. A hint of things to come, btw, is that we are working on building a Discord server - some of you will like this idea and some of you likely will hate it, but it will help with communication when the site is offline and is an additional little nook of the GG community - or at least it will be I'm sure. I know Facebook as been the goto or here in comments when the (pardon my language) "shit hits the fan" - but I wanted to have something more solid. Anyway, feel free to comment on this post and let me know what you all think of that. Also I should have forum updated and plugins and will be working towards fixing tapacrap soon. Thanks again! have a great day and stay safe and healthy!

  4. Thank god, I thought the site was hacked again.

  5. Will it be stable this time? It's always going offline and would be better to just work rather than have a discord

  8. Why not just shut this site down? It contributes zero to society except pointless toxicity and intrusive gossip that’s no ones business, xx.

    3. Oh how I wish that I could freely critique in the YouTube comments but people like you force me to look for sites like GG to do so without fear. You seem very aggressive through those x's, are you fine? Stay sane throughout these tough times all of my fellow gossipers, we might be petty but most of us keep it logical. And to you, I wish for extensive therapy. Your happiness on a website being temporarily down is truly worrying.

    8. No one cares about this site enough to hack it lol. Your IP addresses are equally visible and comments on here classify as abuse. It also provides people you’ve been attacking to trace the identities if need be.

      I posted on here even though it’s 60 s of my life I’ll never get back as one of my favorite YouTubers who creates really positive content has been subject to a lot of hate on here—even though she’s been honest about being suicidal before and struggled with self esteem issues.

      You guys don’t even have the guts to openly critique on their channels because ironically, you fear people will attack you just like you all do on here. I think at least you wouldn’t be a coward.

      I’m fine, thanks. Just can’t understand why people hash their misery and insecurities on random YouTubers—you “hate them” yet follow their every move and fyi...your views give them more $$ lol. Whatever makes you feel better about yourself huh, take care :)

    9. OhEhmGee UNTD, your favorite youtuber got some criticism. Go call the wahhhhhhmbulance instead of trolling here. Nobody makes you, or any youtuber read this site.

      Delete
    10. Someone doesn't understand what abuse is and thus lessens its meaning! Please look up the meaning of 'critique'.A lot of users have VPN's on here so, I don't know why IP addresses are supposedly significant. Don't bother to mention the internet scams we've uncovered during the last few years. Youtubers flouting advertising laws and scamming people. Other Youtubers making cosmetics that are not fit for use. Other youtubers claiming that their vitamins cure illnesses! Where do you think drama channels get their information from? It seems that people have an issue with us all on here because we are anonymous!

      Delete
    11. Would be nice to be able to comment on the actual videos. Problem is most youtubers can't take constructive criticism so we have to come here so our comments don't get deleted.

      Delete
    12. LOL Gabbie Hanna fans are angy. So angy. Awe, does angy Gabbie fan need a diaper change and bottle?

    13. Wah, you're all so mean to Gabbie. Xoxoxo �� stream bad karma

    14. I've not been able to sign in for weeks & the site never emails me a password reset. Fix that also since you are overhauling it!

      Delete
    15. Oh please. Most of the shit talking on here is targeting already problematic "influencers" who do way more damage than good.

      Delete
    16. Wow such ignorant words ... LOL @ UpliftNotTearDown - you don't have to read the site, you are welcome to go find something that suites you better.

      Delete
    17. UpliftNotTearDown we use VPN so even if our IPs are visible they are fake,soooo byeee felicia

  9. Thank you

  10. While I appreciate all the work, I think at this point, it would be best to shut the whole website down. I can't even get my account back and the site goes offline every single day for several hours. I loved talking about Piinksparkles here and GG is the only place where she has her own thread(s). However, it would probably be smarter to move to another site as there are many stable ones out there.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. At least there should be a back-up on piinksparkles and all of the receipts etc somewhere else. Maybe ytt could add her? Is that place even active nowadays? But yeah GG should move on to tattle life or some other site for sure. It's frustrating that I never get to read all of the juicy gossip on my lunchbreak because of the downtime being locally inbetween 10 am and 1 pm.

      Delete
    2. You want the whole site shit down because YOU can’t get your account back? Why does the world revolve around you

      Delete
    3. LMAO for a website that only exists for people to gossip, you fuckers have a very thin skin.

      Delete
    4. BTW to those with account issues, please contact us so we can resolve them for you. You have no real right to complain if you haven't attempted to let us resolve the problem. Just my two cents.

      Delete
  11. If I could, I'd give you a great big IT Support hug. Please don't let the haters get to you. Personally, I enjoy the site (it's my lunchtime read now) and can't wait to see it back up again. Good luck!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Thanks! Hope everything's alright, I was worried yesterday when the link didn't work. A suggestion, maybe instead of Discord add a Twitter where we can check when the site goes down, since a lot of people use it? I didn't know GG had an FB until it went down.

    ReplyDelete

    1. Word. This. First place I went was Twitter and it was empty �� -LS

    2. We have a twitter, I just haven't been able to use it effectively maybe? It's hard to cover all the social media outlets without additional staff, just so you know. But yes, we have at twitter, i will try to get better at updating it or something. Sorry.

    1. You don't even know how to write sentences so how could you possibly grasp IT concepts? Learn how to communicate clearly and accurately.

  15. I was so worried you were gone! I need my gossip! But I’m so glad you’ll be back!! Take your time!

    ReplyDelete
  16. I work in IT too. I understand your pain. It's a thankless job. People only care when it finally stops working.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I think quite a few people lost their accounts after the hacking incident! Users tried to update their passwords and e-mail (as suggested on the main page) and ended up getting locked out! It happened to me! I stumbled upon GG facebook and it got sorted but not everyone knows to go there or have FB accounts! Hope the site is up and running soon :)

    ReplyDelete

    1. You bring up a good point, I will attempt to make a notice that hopefully will help those who got lost in the shuffle. And major apologies for the email fiasco, not sure exactly what config broke that, but there were quite a few updates to be done, and it sometimes feels like they are never ending. Anyway, if you have had an account issue, please contact us, we are more than happy to attempt to resolve it for you!

  18. For the people complaining that they want the site shut down, go away. Stop coming if it bothers you so much. If you found somewhere else that’s better then stfu and go there. Why do you keep coming back to comment. If the site doesn’t work for you and you think it’s shit then stop coming and find somewhere else. This isn’t an essential service that is required to be provided to you, it’s just for fun. Obviously there is a reason everyone keeps coming back so stop complaining. ��

    2. My thought exactly, people are ridiculous, no one is forcing you to be here and it's not like it's a site you have to pay to use.

      Delete
    3. You know there is a lot of illegal stuff on the forum? Not to mention that in any case a huge number of people there can't even talk, they just whine whine whine and when you have a different opinion abotu sth they try to beat you down. Pathetic much

      Delete
    4. Illegal stuff? Such as? Any photos of homes or addresses are not allowed and always swiftly removed. People not stanning the person you do isn't a crime. Again, go call the wahhhhhmbulance and move on. Don't read. Simple as!

      Delete
    5. I never said criticism was a crime, nor is hate itself (I hate every youtuber anyway), but it's not once or twice that people have crossed the line to illegal without their childish jumping to conclusions and then claiming whatever they please about the person. Not to mention stealing and distributing content, sharing personal information (which is never deleted).

      Also sometimes people attack youtubers on purpose and try to get to them (like uploading videos to mock them and sharing those videos all over). If people want to critisize and talk crap, can't be so hard to just do so, but apparently it's a fine line between an ah so sacred opinion!!1 and bullying. Ah well.

      In any case, it's not possible for a person to have a life, if they have an account on a forum like this.

      Delete
    6. Don't say personal info is never deleted bc I have seen as much. Anything "illegal" is not allowed. Guess what? Any public records of crimes or lawsuits is not "illegal" to repost.

      Delete
    7. We don't have lives being here but who's coming here over and over to comment on its down page I'm ????????? What a dumbass LMFAO

  28. I enjoy this website because I wouldn't know the tea about them.

  29. I love how every time the site goes down, people go on and on about starting other forums like it's so easy. That's been done every single time GG has had serious downtime and only been successful once that I know of. If it was so easy, GG wouldn't have tens of thousands of users logging on daily. But go off!

  30. Piinksparkles needs to be exposed for the liar she is, with GG down nobody can see what a controversial YouTuber she is, it also doesn't help she avoids things like the plague and disabled comments. We need to find another place to make sure she is exposed and never able to gain a following again for the awful things she's done. Any suggestions?

    1. Wow it's neverthat deep. No one sees her thread besides us. If it's that much of a burden in your life just make YouTube videos or something. She's a loser in Canada that gets 1/8th in view as she has in subs. She's irrelevant and working in her own self destruction. -LS

    2. The amount of lives she's ruined and people's she's ripped off, she deserves to be exposed and shut down.

  31. @bipolarmorgan,thanks for your hard work !I'm sure GG will be back up and running soon . I'm fairly new to GG and prior to joining GG I very rarely commented on You tube chanels so I'm not familiar with Discord servers .
    Hope you and your family are happy and well !!!!

  32. I would be more than happy to start using PULL or Tattle Life..but the threads for the youtubers I follow never get alot of activity on those forums. There's one guru in particular who has a really active (and hilarious) thread on here that just never carried over to those better designed gossip sites. I just wish GG wouldn't crash all the time - I don't even mind the dated design of GG. (I also have a soft spot for the old school emoticon selection on here)

    1. interesting outlook on it. Thanks for your input. Curious what you mean by "better designed" and ironic that you said you don't mind the supposed "dated design" whatever that means. Either way, thanks for the input. I shall try to do something productive with it.

  37. I truly appreciate the kind words, i think the majority of your know i'm here to support the site as best i can. I'm not perfect and there are some issues that just can't be resolved, due to the constant attempts by malicious people to try and dissuade you all from having an opinion. But as most of you know, i will continue to attempt to keep things running as smoothly as possible for as long as i possibly can. I'm sure at some point I may grow old enough, lol, to pass the torch, but until then i shall continue to put forth as much of my effort as i can to keep as many of you as happy as i possibly can with regards to the stability and functionality of the site for the community that supports it.

    2. Hei Morgan, thank for all the work you put into this site! I noticed that it does go down a lot, would it be better to host the website on some other service? I don't know a lot about stuff like that so I'm sorry if this is an ignorant question. :'D To move the whole site to a more stable "host"? Or have a mirror up so people can read what has been written even when they can't comment or the main site is down? SOrry, I hope that doesn't come off too ignorant. :D

  38. It's amazing to me how the fans of certain youtubers twist the truth. Youtubers are toxic. Accept it. They make money by lying and taking advantage of the viewers. Again, accept it. They are parasites and they're getting paid for it. I'm gonna condemn this way of life forever and ever. And see them for what they are. And talk with people about them. If someone is bothered by it, they may as well completely stay away from the internet and LIVE A HAPPY LIFE WITH BIRDS CHIRPING AND COLORFUL FLOWERS AND BUTTERFLIES etc etc.

  42. Hey, you should contact Null, the owner of Kiwifarms. He has quite a lot of experience on running a gossip website that gets constantly targeted (and he runs it in his own home server). He's quite knowledgeable and I think he would be happy to help you get GG back working. Just a suggestion!

  51. I've seen discord wreak absolute havoc on forums. To the point the entire forum community no longer receives activity. I don't think that would happen here but I'd feel guilty if I didn't give the warning from previous experience. Full disclosure: I was one of the loudest voices in favor of discord on one of the forums which adapted it and then closed down. I still think it could work here though because the content is somewhat triggered by outside actors (ie Gurus) rather than members having to invent it.

    1. Well, the discord integration isn't for switching over to discord fully or anything, it's just for when the site is offline or for support services really, and if you feel like just chatting there, thats ok too. But yes, i figured it's a good addition, only time will tell.
