“annoyingly elitist, reassuringly expansive” Britfags is a UK based imageboard. They allow anonymous posting and the board is fairly active.
Boards as of 2-18-22:
[ b / iq / g / zoo ] [ e / news / lab ] [ v / nom / pol / eco / emo / 101 / shed ]
[ art / A / beat / boo / com / fat / job / lit / map / mph / poof / £$€¥ / spo / uhu / uni / x / y ] [ * | sfw | o ]
It wasn’t dead; it was just configured to only allow UK IP addresses. However, my IP address hasn’t been able to go there for a couple of weeks now, and I’m starting to panic. The posters were all extremely regular posters, so they must be looking for it too if they can’t connect either. Perhaps we should try to coordinate a response to its disappearance? Does anyone know the best way to do that? I’ve put my email address with this comment, so maybe I will get an email if anyone replies to this comment.
Im 99% sure only I can see your email if you choose to add it. No idea if you get replies, but here is a test for it.
If someone has info they can post it here or direct it to me via the reporting form and I’ll get you connected to that person.
Nope, no email notifications from your reply! But thank you; that was very kind of you to try. And I must admit I am glad nobody else can see my email address.
I cannot ping britfa.gs or its IP address, so maybe it really is deceased. I blame the Online Safety Act if so. Bloody Keir Starmer. What a tosser.
damn i liked britfags 🙁
No one has been able to get ahold of purple (the admin) and when I say no one, I mean I’m sitting in a discord with the active half the mod team, and they don’t know what has happened either. refugees of the old site are welcome to join us https://discord.gg/RPXVH2Xa
Can we get a fresh Discord link with longer uptime/use count?
My only other recourse is trying to find a way through the Steam group – https://steamcommunity.com/groups/britfrags
Can we get a fresh Discord link, possibly with a longer expiry and use count?
My only other recourse is via the steam group, but I can’t figure out how to get into it – https://steamcommunity.com/groups/britfrags
Would be a shame to lose contact with you sods after all those years..
Fresh discord link please.
We cannot lose access to the Shedbunker after so many years. This is a Teacon 5 alert.

Sorry for late response.
Somewhat of a deliberate choice on my part to drop expiring links, as I’m not sure how appreciated it would be for me to leave links on the open web indefinitely.
I am currently setting up a successor site (it is up but no domain name yet, as it’s not really ready to go public), I should have a proper URL by the time this link expires so will post that soon.
Any updates? Not that anybody will probably find it by this point.
Shit bruddah my Christmas sucked, who’m I to bitch about it now?
For some reason my posts don’t seem to go through, I initially thought there was a delay on posts but here is another link to the discord.

For some reason my posts don’t seem to be going through I’ve tried to post a new discord link at least 4 times. I guess it’s a spam block
Okay now it goes through. Interesting…. try this code as the last half of a discord URL 7NZdmWBE
Sorry, they were auto flagged as spam… probably because they are discord?? there are like 100 true spam comments a day flagged so I don’t even go in there now to review. All posts with links or images get held for moderation, and those i get live within a day.
I just want to record this for prosperity. Not ever seen this error yet, can’t identify the reason.
Considering the suspicious nature of Purples departure.
It’s age veri, isn’t it? Did we *ever* post ‘offensive content’ on the boards?
The mods sucked ass being ban happy, good riddance.
I really miss you lads, I will always think of you. Love from, Classlad/Furlad (samelad).
Someone let us know if we get anything back up and running, ta x
Still miss you lads. All the best from furlad/classlad (we were always the samelad).
So at the moment there is a successor board set up that doesn’t have a URL yet just an IP address, the address is being deliberately not posted about on the open web to give time for posts to build up to re-establish the GS etiquette before being made public, There are links to it in the discord chat.
That’s great news, but nobody can get in the discord
So use this code as the last half of the discord invite URL 6S6Chqxs -This code will expire in 7 days I’m not making an indefinite link for probably obvious reasons and that is the maximum time.
To access the discord from the UK without capitulating to the OSA you are going to want some sort of VPN, personally I use the free browser one built into Opera.
Current plan is to have a real URL with ip range blocking protection for the board before the end of the month.
I don’t know why there have been instances of invite codes from here failing I can assure you that multiple people have come to the discord from here.
