Imgur has blocked the UK

But there are no hoops to jump through. They removed all adult content and don't even allow partial nudity any more. They have literally nothing to worry about.

Being against their rules doesn't prevent it from being uploaded. That's the problem with user-to-user content. Yes, the image might get removed and the user blocked, but "the children" could still see it while it's up, and be forever traumatised by a pair of boobs :rolleyes:

@mrk what would you do if it came down to having to doing some kind of verification or not being able to post screenshots? Which would cause you greater pain? I reckon the latter!
 
I've been holding off about buying a VPN as I don't really need one for day-to-day things but now I think I may renew my proton vpn.

Not just cause of Imgur but if even inoculums sites like Imgur are getting taken down it's very much a case of the straw that broke the camels back, for me.
 
Easy to log in with a VPN however if you want to delete your account you need to input your password, a thing that doesnt exist if you have a 3rd party (eg Google) sign in so you need to reset your none existent password.

The children have been saved from our memes/images thread. And many other memes threads on many other forums.
 
How come some images dont display but my signature does (at least I can see it for now) Im sure thats hosted on imgur
Edit, I think things are just takig time to update. @Robbo 's signature shows 'content not viewable in your region' for me so expect mine will vanish soon.

Time to find a dodgy Russian site to host my OcUK sig & any game screenshots!

I have my own webhosting space with unlimited bandwidth, a minor inconvenience switching over now is all.
 
Don't worry. Soon you'll be able to use your compulsory digital ID to unlock Imgur. Just be careful what you post on there...
