AllTheFallen's shutdown explained by the site's owner.
TL;DR #1: Legal pressure, though not direct. Monetary costs reaching unsustainable levels. Site users getting out of hand. Vistarrr recommends keeping any new sites niche and thinking hard about what kind of community you want to foster.
TL;DR #2: Vistarrr was away from ATF so the site admins and mods made a backup. They reinstated a mod who was previously removed to help do this by way of adding a backdoor. Vistarrr returns and tells people that the backup is dangerous and is assured it has been deleted. Said mod lied about deleting it, is unhinged, and chimps out, threatening to leak the entire thing. Any ATF clones that pop up after the website shuts down are NOT to be trusted.
@cunny damn, the original lolicon
that profile pic is awesome lol
@cunny and you never will because it isn't possible lol
i wonder if it's just the forum, or all atf platforms
@ninja8tyu @cunny it's ATF as a whole, from what i understand. there may be some talks to have ownership of certain parts transferred to other people. i know some people were thinking that iratu, the owner of pomf.tv, might do a decent job hosting the booru since they were a mod (admin) for it in the past? but that's just copium i think 
even then, there would still be a lot of cleaning up to do.
i would download whatever you don't want to lose, though, absolutely.
wonder if youtube will allow nobeta in undergarments lol
Yako ヤコ @Yako @Meemoo i don't think the goal was to attract pedophiles necessarily, but to be an open "free speech" kind of platform and that naturally attracted pedos who couldn't talk about that kind of stuff anywhere else. it's the classic situation of letting yourself be taken over by people who do not give a single fuck about you, just because you want to uphold an ideal. happens all the time.
that's a good faith interpretation though, of course. regardless, i'm not sad about it getting shut down.
if you want a really good alternative, roriwalrus seems like it is the best spot. they've learned from ATF's mistakes.
some of the regulars there actively uploaded and archived mods that were paywalled and/or quickly scrubbed by the OG modder but their stuff was only available on the thread itself (lists that did get made were highly outdated and unmaintained)
I hope they go somewhere that doesn't glow the fuck up
the place is a cesspool but it was the only site I've seen actively upload loli mods for hoyo stuff
You're the one to speak holy fucking Christ just look at your profile, it screams pedophile all over.
I'm sure the active mod devs will find a new site, but RIP all the old mods unless someone backs them up and brings them over to whatever new site is made
While the active devs will surely find a new site to host their mods (Apparently RoriWalrus is opening a modding section because of this?) I'm worried about the non-active ones.
@Ronnie21093 @rlier23 @Kyonko802 we're going back to the multi-part zip files haha
But man isn't the 3rd party link meta, pixel drain. Mega, gofile at this point.
It's probably worth adding shakes fist at ai bubble making self hosting with decent storage prohibitively expensive.
