So. The site was just taken offline by our host for 12 hours and 53 minutes.

Why?

A Swiss-Frenchman sent a single-line email to the wrong company, saying we host content that is illegal under US law (videos of people dying).

This company then forwarded that email to our host.

Rather than investigating this in any way, our host immediately took the site offline and locked us out of the server.

They then told us that we need to remove all content that is illegal in the US. To clarify, they said that we need to remove people dying from WatchPeopleDie.

We replied that videos of people dying are NOT illegal under US law. We cited relevant caselaw and precedent.

The actual company is likely out of the office, since this was around 1am their time, so the "Adam" we were dealing with spoke poor English and just repeated himself: "take illegal content down to come back."

We told them "okay, the illegal content is taken down."

"Adam from America" then said "How? I lock you out. You can't take down. Please explain steps how you take down."

We then emailed the piece of shit who emailed the wrong company explaining that it is not illegal and cited laws to him.

He replied and said "oops, sorry for shutting down your business for 12 hours because I have nothing else going on in my life. My bad."

We then forwarded a screenshot of this email to "Adam" at our host who, apparently, decided that a screenshot of an email is sufficient proof of what American law is (after he had previously determined that actual American law citations are insufficient proof), which we had already cited at him.

And now we're back online.

How will this be prevented in the future?

Well, we won't be relying on this fucking host anymore since they're apparently chomping at the bit to arbitrarily violate their service agreement with us based on a single line email from a foreign country to another company. In the meantime, we are setting up a fairly simple reverse proxy host with a more competent company who will actually, you know, look into complaints, rather than just immediately shut down the site without any investigation, notice, or communication whatsoever. We'll be setting up a few of these actually, just in case one shits the bed like our current host.

This will (probably) never happen again. But I'm not willing to say that completely, because as this episode shows, there is truly no bottom to the depths of human stupidity.

Other

I don't know. I'm exhausted and I've been up pretty much all night. I'm sending everyone 1000 coins with a link to this thread just to ensure it gets seen. None of this was anyone's fault but our host's, but I feel genuinely guilty about it and I'm really sorry for the outage. Utter lunacy, start to finish. I'll post the full logs in the future if we ever fully cut ties with this joke of a company, both my customer support ticket last night (Clit: Hey, I don't have login credentials for our server right now, but can you just tell me if there are any known general service outages? "Jen": Sir yes I can help you but please login. "Jen": Sir I am pleasing you to login for help?), and the clownshow with "Adam" all this morning. It's the most kafkaesque insanity I've ever seen.

SORRY.

In closing: Fuck Switzerland, fuck the Swiss, fuck France, fuck the French, fuck Europe, fuck the EU, fuck tech companies, fuck customer service employees, and fuck censorship.

I love you.

So I’m sick of looking at that hideous brick wall someone made so long ago. I made a new banner. And it will now cycle between these two banners at random.

That’s also boring and gay. Two banners? Boring. Gay. No fun. Not straight. And so on and so forth.

And so I’m opening banner submissions to all of you strange and lovely people. You can even submit them if you’re not strange and lovely. It’s okay. All banners are welcome here. You’ll be given a slick Banner Artist profile badge if approved.

They don’t have to be morbid. They can be cute. Funny. Filled with Marseys. Flamboyantly homosexual. I don’t care. Just make sure they say WatchPeopleDie or WPD or at least reference the site or whatever.

POST BANNERS YOU MAKE IN THIS THREAD AND IF THEY AREN’T SHIT I’LL ADD THEM TO THE ROTATION

Animation is okay if you’d like, just make sure filesize is under 1mb when compressed to webp.

1200x146 are the dimensions

ps hi

edit:

I just shit out a few on lunch, anything to bury that disgusting brick wall

Big ups to @CursedDANKmemes for the first user-generated banner:

Hi again! I'm back with another update! This one comes in two parts.

Part I: Existential Threat

First and foremost, we need to have a frank discussion. WPD.co has been live since April 26th of this year - it's been four months as of two days ago, and we're rapidly approaching 40,000 users. We serve several terabytes of data per month. By comparison, our first project - https://rdrama.net - only has about 15,000 users, despite being 15 months old. That's fucking awesome. WPD is growing incredibly. But this brings us to the crux of this post:

This is becoming increasingly onerous to pay for out of pocket. Talking about money is deeply unfashionable, I know, but the plain and simple of it is that we can't keep doing this, especially with the current rate of growth. And we would very much like WPD to continue to grow.

We will never serve ads. We will never hijack your browser to mine crypto. We will never paywall ANYTHING AT ALL.

That said, we are opening purely voluntary donations and giving those who choose to help WPD continue to survive and thrive some neat little perks. These will never be anything resembling "pay to win" or whatever. Non-paying users will NEVER be throttled or anything. This is PURELY VOLUNTARY for those who WOULD LIKE TO CONTRIBUTE.

We've chosen to use Gumroad for this, because Patreon is run by censorious cowards and we are never giving them another dime. Gumroad is much more open to controversial content and has even been hosting Sam Hyde for years without issue. Gumroad rules.

If you would like to support WPD, go here https://wpd.gumroad.com/l/WPD - and choose a tier.

Benefits include things like a monthly Marseybux stipend (same as the coins - used for fun digital shop items (i.e. profile upgrades to make you unblockable, not able to be unfollowed, etc., and the huge variety of cheeky "awards" available), a colored name background, a sick beside-username icon of the tier (Victim, Corpse, Zombie, Ghost or Survivor) showing that you're an objectively wonderful person and morally superior to every other user, signatures, and more.

Seriously, just go to the link and have a look at the tiers. Even $5 gets you a shitload of cool stuff. **If you do donate, remember to link your Gumroad here to claim your nifty perks). Top of the page. You literally can’t miss it.

That said, WPD is not going to collapse or shut down if it doesn't meet hosting costs from donations. That's not even a possibility. It'll just become more and more obnoxious to fund out of pocket and you'll likely see your webmaster in an OC video here getting shot as he tries to rob a 7/11 to pay our webhost.

Part II: Something For Everyone

In lighter news, we're deploying two experimental categories - /h/Social and /h/Music - to try and provide a more robust WPD experience for those who want it that extends beyond just bingeing videos of people dying. Post to /h/Social about anything and everything you want - doesn't need to be death, gore, pain, doesn't even need to be media at all. Sports, art, programming nonsense, memes, drunken rants, emotional outbursts, politics, I don't care - get to know your fellow snuff enthusiasts before their manifestos come out. /h/Music is what it sounds like - since I assume huge swaths of the userbase enjoy much of the same music, it seemed like an ideal starting point for another category and like it would be beneficial to have to avoid shitting up /h/Social with music recommendations and whatever.

If you'd like to keep your death and gore site experience free of mindless chatter, you are strongly encouraged to just click the "Hide Posts in main feed" button at the top of /h/Social and /h/Music. Then you won't see their content at all.

This is just trying out a new concept. If people enjoy it, we can expand upon it later. But for now, just a trial run.

Part III: Upcoming Features

• More chat improvements are coming in the near future. What would you like to see? We resolved the issue with multiquotes taking up enormous chunks of screen real estate, and the iOS compatibility issue. What now? What would you like added to, or removed from, or changed about chat?

• For those who enjoy the gambling features, you won't need to comment !blackjackXXX or !slotsYYY anymore. For those who get annoyed at gambling comments shitting up their threads, that also won't be an issue for much longer. There will be a very cute, very cool dedicated casino page soon, and we'll be adding a bunch of shit to it as time goes on.

• Rumble integration is in the works. Not really a priority, since as far as I know, Rumble doesn't host much gore/death content, but it'll be done soon just in case.

Suggestions and requests for features and changes are always welcome and encouraged (unless they're terrible), so if you have anything you'd like, please do let me know. Regardless of how retarded it is, so long as it's fun. Seriously. I have a button I can press in the admin panel to make every thread every user views play a fart noise when loaded. Hit me with things you'd like to see and if they're fun ideas, they'll likely be added. Unless they're a ton of work, then it's iffy, because no one likes that.

That's all for now, have a great week!

I love you.

xoxo Clitpeeler 💋

I ain't gonna lie, I ain't the smartest person, I just come here to see the funny red liquid. But I recently changed my signature and did a fucky wucky and now can't change it to anything else without getting this screen, send help.

This knockoff WPD is a lame shell of proper WPD subs and sites that came before it. IT could be so much better.

ITS WATCH PEOPLE DIE. IF THERE ISN'T DEATH OR SOMEONE DYING IN THE VIDEO FUCK OFF AND GO AWAY.

stop posting stupid videos of accidents

stop posting videos of your pets thinking your cute and tee hee fooling everyone with clever titles. its not funny, never was, and its been done before. your jokes suck and you should kill yourself.

The impetus for this poll was this thread:

https://watchpeopledie.tv/h/shooting/post/168172/brenton-tarrant-edit

It just feels pointless to me. But I don't like WPD content in general, so I'm not the best judge of this sort of thing. And that's where you degenerates come in.

This is not a binding poll. This is just sourcing community thoughts.

submited already

Now I guess it will no longer be necessary to report whenever someone deserves their post to be labeled as effort post

Or it's a ddos idk

Either way the site is barely usable for me on iOS and if this is impacting anyone else (I assume it is), I do apologize. Should be sorted soon.

Please complain (LOUDLY) when things break though so I don't need to speculate as to whether it's just my phone or not.

Thanks.

There are many videos which do not fit stabbing or fights or shooting since they are strange and disgusting videos from worms, corpses in the process of decomposition or mythical videos From this platform like two girls, one cup, one man and 1 jar You get the idea, certain pages like crazy shit have that content, even some gore pages, it's a regular section, I don't remember the name of the page but I think it has a section called WTF In short, we need a category that ranges from the disgusting to the simply bizarre I propose that the category name be simply disgusting.

Beheading by sword is still the official execution method in Saudi Arabia.

I found out from a post by /u/neverstopthezerg. Say hi if you are reading this. Also say hi if you're a fed reading this, I guess.

Name is @1dayUsuffer, or Joshua Cobb

He was a black ex-Marine who was was arrested on Friday, May 10, 2024 for making threats to kill white people. The charge was "transmitting a threat in interstate and foreign commerce", punishable by a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. He fantasized about shooting up a gym, a supermarket, or a rich white area. He felt a connection to Nikolas Cruz and liked the "element of surprise and style" of the 2022 Buffalo shooting (even though Payton Gendron targeted black people).

He made his WPD account on February 22, 2023 and made posts from February 23, 2023 to June 7, 2023. (I do not know if there are deleted or removed comments from later dates.) His last voting activity was on January 6, 2024.

Announcement (Justice.gov)

This is the criminal complaint PDF. They did not mention WPD or Reddit by name.

On December 17, 2022, he apparently made a post on Reddit under the username /u/NearbyUser101 stating the following. I could not find the post.

I want to cause mayhem on the white community. The reason i specifically want to target white people is because as a black male, they will NEVER understand my struggles. Same way I will never understand their struggles, but I don't care to. I want to erase them. All of them really, but in this case as many as I possibly can. As of today I have officially began planning my attack. It is going to take place in 2023 in the state of New Jersey, I have not chosen a exact date but I am going to be sure it is close to an important holiday to their race. I have a location in mind already which I have frequented for the past year and I am certain nobody there is armed to be able to stop me from spraying them to the ground. I have already acquired 2 of the 4 firearms I plan to use for my attack, and I also know my entry and exit points already after the mayhem.

This is his WPD bio. "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun"

WPD posts

Some of his WPD posts include:

• Do you think most killers are born or made?

• What creates a mass shooter?

• If you were going to commit a mass shooting, what kind of establishment would you target? [Removed]

• Why do my friends only contact me when there is nothing to do but never contact me if there is actually something fun going on?

• This shit is getting old man…… [Deleted]

WPD comments

Just read the bold parts if it's too much text.

Some of his comments include:

#958064 No expectations buddy. I'm just leaving evidence for whoever investigates my case.

Yeah, I know, creating this post is probably exactly what he would've wanted.

#957987 What is help going to do for me? And the person who is going to “help” me is only doing it because they are getting paid man. Its all a fucking facade. They dont really care. Lets be real man. Tbh I hope I do progress into a serial killer because I fucking hate life man. I did not ask for this shit. This shit hurts so fucking bad man. Every time I go on social media all I see is other kids my age on fucking boats and jetskis surrounded by drunk hot girls and just having all kinds of fun and then theres me…… doomed to fucking bullshit. Why is life so fucking unfair I hate this shit so much man…. But one day everyone will suffer. I promise I will make everyone feel my fucking pain. My deep, sincere, raw, & sharp pain.

#957994 Fuck those animals. My favorite weapon to kill them with is my crossbow. I use broadhead tips and send it straight to through their brains. Last cat I got I hit him/her right in the eye and that shit was on the floor. Very bloody scene and I loved it. I dont take pictures with my phone but the images remain in my brain.

He hated cats. He wrote about it in more detail here.

#958286 Bro just because you're idea of a happy ending mignt be going too college and slaving away in a cubicle for eternity & getting married doesnt mean its @1dayUsuffer's as well. There is a massive epidemic going on right now. Nobody wahts too acknowledge that us young men in America have so many obstacles stacked against us we cannot excel no matter how hard we try. Especially those like myself who are BLACK & come from poverty. There is no way out for me.

The only way out is bloodshed. Thats success in @1dayUsuffer's eyes.

Furry rights are human rights.

#626107 Ahhh cmon, imagine the rush you'd feel while shooting some shit up. Probably could get literally high off the adrenaline alone. I'd probably OD on my own adrenaline after the 10th body goes down.

#624190 I bet a lot of people said the same thing about these guys that go and kill people like this...THey probably got tired of people like you saying what they will or wont do... and calling them retards... It makes sense why they get tired of being doubted and talked to any kind of way so they go blow fucking brains apart.

And also, just because you don't agree with something doesn't make it cringe. Fuck out of here with that dumb ass word this edit is dope. Nothing better than watching people die to some sick tunes.

And I really don't get why you are so bothered by people who wish to idolize school shooters. If that's what someone likes, let them like that.. Why does it concern you so much? Are you afraid one day that person might end up shooting you apart into legit pieces one day? Why is it ok for someone to idolize Michael Jordan or Lebron James but not Nicholas Cruz or Payton Gendron? Sounds like a lot of fear to me...

#625258 I'm defending them because I feel their same pain every waking day of my life... I know exactly what it feels like to be constantly fucked with by people all your life, I know what it's like to be the "outsider" or "loner" as some might say. This world we inhabit is a cold and very dark place for some of us and people make it no better because they love to treat you like a fucking outcast until you become one of these so-called "freaks", & blow their heads apart.

And I kind of agree with you on the second part though, if someone is so miserable to that point they should just kill themselves, but at the same time, if most of your anger is toward humanity and its treatment of you, why not steal a couple of souls before you pull the trigger on yourself? Fruit for thought.

His opinion on idolizing mass shooters.

#957903 1: Yes

2: No documented history but I definitely have problems but I refuse to get evaluated because I will lose my firearms license here in America. Not to mention, pretty much every single person in my family tree clearly shows signs of multiple different mental illnesses & I had 3 aunts who were diagnosed Schizophrenics, so do as you will with that information.

3: That and the adrenaline rush is nice because I'm a depressed lonely piece of shit loser with nothing to live for so watching people get fucking MERKED gives me some excitement.

4: 100% someday. Just not yet though, I want to continue training and buying more ammunition.

I don't know what the questions were because the post was deleted. I'm guessing the 4th question was something along the lines of "Would you ever harm/kill someone else?".

Phone Notes

Here are notes from his phone, from April to May 2023. Italic words are ones I could not make out from the PDF.

First note (March 16, 2023)

Life is nothing.

and it is meaningless. I fucking hate all of you soft ass fucking people. You all are so fucking fake. You all try to play the part and confide to this stupid ass game. Who can be the fakest? I see it all day long. Fake interactions people putting on their fake happy voices when they know deep inside they are screaming.... Why not be true and let the scream out? Why hide it? It's all a fucking game and you all are going to die. I currently lack the means necessary to kill as many as I intend to but one day I will have the available resources (finance) to purchase the appropriate weaponry for my killing(s).

All my life I have been doubyed… Ive been taken as the joke… ive been fucked around with… well now its my turn. I am going to kill one of you motheruckers I fucking hate humanity. All of you fucking duck and I don't give a single fuck about any of you though I may appear I do. People ACT like they care for you. All of their care is conditional. The moment you do one thing against their conditions they no longer care... so the question becomes. did they care in the first place? Here Ill answer that for you. NO.

Its all fucking fake and I am sick of it. Im ready to grt to the good part of my story where I start taking you mother fuckers out and killing you all… My rampage will soon happen… I plan to now continue accumulating the necessary equipment needed to execute. Once all equipment is in, time will then tell. You will all die.

Second note (March 20, 2023)

For all of my life, all that I can remember I've been the outcast..Ive been ignored. Ive been left out. Ive been forgotten. Ive been excluded.

As of recent I have began to accept this dark reality for myself.

Nobody wants or appreciates my company. And that is okay with me. I will want and appreciate my own company.

I no longer seek the companionships of other humans. There comes a point where you realize you just literally do not matter to other(certain) people. I hate all of this shit and I feel like my only way out of the pain and suffering is by exploding. So I await… I await that moment so I can make those moments final. For whomever… myself or a victim.

Other social media

• Soundcloud (1DayUSuffer)

• TikTok (cobbx), where he posted about fitness and motivational content

Here are some random videos I downloaded from his TikTok.

All of the videos are from May 2022, except the night walk video (December 2021), the opinions video (February 2022), and the Marine video (May 2024).

Links: Video 1, Video 2, Video 3, Video 4, Video 5, Video 6, Video 7, Video 8

Say hello to @SomeoneFromHungary and @azertyuioppmlkjhgfdsqwxcv, both of whom posted so quickly after completing registration that the spam filter thought they were bots.

@SomeoneFromHungary tried much harder of the two (although still a low bar, given the other guy just made a single-word comment) and had this to say about a faceless person on a cartoon cat website seeming to drink urine:

Well, that was sexy. My sausage hard as rock.

Edit: Would do it to you, if u have a nice puss.

https://watchpeopledie.tv/h/social/post/166505/me-drinking-my-piss

might just be my sorry ass being not so sensible to that typa shit anymore, but "two people wrecked by truck" or "woman launched by motorcycle" becomes boring after you see that 90% of the posts on here are that typa shit

And its all in a Third World Country anyway so that makes it even lamer

There has to be nudity warnings now? When did this happen? Do we have a bunch of children on here now that are afraid of a nude body? I mean I'm pretty sure all the TikTok's got kids on here, but this has to be a joke that people want nudity warnings now too.

Is there a bug cause i never get any notification when someone did an effortpost and yes, i turned the notification a long time ago on!
