I honestly agree. If you want a legitimate site, you are gonna eventually have to rid yourselves of anything sketchy. Greymarket vending is about as sketchy as it gets - especially with all of the recent heat it's been receiving. Once again, best of luck.

This sucks to hear, but long-term it is most definitely the right choice. Otherwise saidit would just be a ticking time bomb

Exactly. I'm glad you get it. If we didn't make this change now, it was just a matter of time until it bites us in the ass

Very bitter-sweet for me. I want this site to do well, but greymarket was a huge component of that (for me at least).

Seriously, best of luck. I want this place to succeed as much as you do

Thank you, I can tell you care. I have nothing against greymarket per se, it's just for the longevity of the site from a legal perspective. I'm sure it'll find other corners of the internet to thrive in.

Most definitely it will. Longterm this is without a doubt the way to go. Saidit still has a nice path it can follow too - just keep up the good work and it will survive (maybe thrive, even?) once the dust settles
