It's been a long time now of watching instantly deleted handshake comments and going to the mod logs and seeing dozens or hundreds of what look like mostly reasonable comments auto-deleted in the week(s) since Dom was last active.
I know things were set up extra draconian to deter a certain child bride and gore themed obsessive trolling campaign, but I haven't seen them caught in the net in a long time. All I'm seeing are tens of fresh users getting sandbagged for weeks and never coming back.

I suspect that the place would immediately be drown under a torrent of stormfag wannabees calling for genocide for the Jews.
At that point the potential new members would drop to zero.
