    Just managed to log in. I hardly ever try, and this time I wish I hadn't as well. First, no response at all. Okay, deleted all bdsmlr cookies. Managed to get past the log in page. Tried to open SETTINGS. No response. Tried to open FOLLOWERS page. No response. Tried it again. And again. Finally, managed to open FOLLOWERS. Clicked on a profile. No response. Clicked on another profile. No response. Clicked on HOME to return to the dashboard. First, nothing happened. Then, got the 500 Error page.

    Every time I log in, this is what happens. Sometimes, you get to actually stay for a few minutes without incident, but it never lasts. And they actually have the nerve to offer "Premium" for $20/month. Laughable. Try newtumbl.com or reblogme.com - not perhaps the most awesome sites either, but at least they work.

    And let's not even start talking about those suspicious ads they force on you and which seem to be the only thing that's been reliably working throughout the slow disintegration of this platform...

    It's been some days now, I too can't load the site. And today my antivirus even began to tell me that it's a dangerous website? I think they're having issues with the certificates at this point.

    Lovemysis-88 - Earlier this year (when there was still something like discussions going on here), several people reported virus scan warnings of malware. I'm only running bdsmr in virtualbox  for security reasons, never on my mobile, and I'm using every virus blocker available. Still, there's tab stealing redirects still popping up, and once in a while scripts want to be executed and paralyze my browser, mostly when I click on a profile. There's never been an explanation by "admins" about the nature of this shit.

    Anyway, given their conduct for the past couple of years, I wouldn't trust anything they say - except they haven't communicated anyway for months and months.

    If they don't fix this, as it seems that they don't want to, I guess I'll have to find (again) another website where to post. Any idea of another site like this or the old Tumblr? (Yes I've heard they want to accept porn again but I doubt they'll actually allow it).

    Okay, I just commented on what other sites are available, and included their actual url - r e b l o g m e. c o m and  n e w t u m b l. c o m - guess what? The message disappeared in the void. I assume there's some kind of filter thing which blocks posts that mention the competition. That's par for the course. Let's see whether adding spaces between the letters makes any difference :-)

    Reblogme.com isn't loading.

    I have a couple of NewTumbl blogs. Developers grew bored with it. No updates planned. 

    Likeable but if it were as popular as BDSMLR it would probably crash and burn (unless they have the resources to acquire new servers).

    Reblogme doesn't load for me either. Newtumbl kind of reminds me Pinterest, or a quite older version of Tumblr.

    I am not able to get on the site either... just keeps telling me the site "can't be reached." It has been like this for two days now.

    Yup, it's down. I hadn't been there for 4 or 5 days, so perhaps in the meantime they've folded. As Richard Evans Lee said about n e w t u m b l - perhaps the resources are lacking to cope with increasing demand. That's what happens with amateur outfits, no matter how well-meaning they may be. If it turns out they actually have folded, it's a shame because they did actually take care of their site and seemed to take an interest in it.

     

    PS: HALF AN HOUR LATER:

    r e b l o g m e   is back up, at any rate I was just able to log in.

    Reddit rumor: tech support and moderation absent for a month. Platform sold.

    Well that's great. A site that I've used for many of my posts closed the other day, and now this one too. RIP CoedCherry, and RIP BDSMLR.

    My AVG virus blocker on my desktop won’t let me even get to the log in page because of the MALVERTISING on this site. Until and unless that changes, I will not be posting here any longer. My 9000+ followers will be disapointed, but i will not expose my computer to known problems. I had to use my phone to post this message.
