This is the post the got the site shut down: https://i.imgur.com/S1z3Po2.jpg

And btw, kiwifarms had to get their own ip block because no one would host them any more that was like 5+ years ago or something. So cloudflare never really provided any service to the site as their IPs were public knowledge and could be ddos'd (hence why it is always going down)

A post deleted as soon as a mod saw it (~30 minutes) with an account ban, by an account with virtually no posting history before this drama started.... hmmm

I also have no idea why this website is responsible for a random post by a user, when the post is apparently against the stated rules of the forum?

Are there not death threats posted on Twitter and Facebook all the time?

Because it is just a pretext and not an actual reason.
