Pastebin and their removal process

I've been using Pastebin for a few years now to host various funny logs and mIRC scripts, but recently I've run into some issues with them. Their removal process is piss-easy to trigger, seeing how they like to remove anything that gets reported, and three pastes I've been putting up for a few weeks now go down every time. Not to point any fingers, but I can't help but notice that these, the only three pastes I've ever had removed, are all about the same group of people. Either way, I've started hosting my more "controversial" pastes on an alternative site, hosted by my good friend topo. Hopefully he won't give in as easily to pressure from these unnamed parties.

Here is where my removed pastes can be located.

tl;dr quacknet best paste site

Pastebin has a few advantages, like having accounts where all your pastes are displayed but I guess a separate paste of links for the public to see works just as well.
Also it lets you download them with 1 click and set an automatic delete timer.

Yeah, Pastebin is nicer, but they remove anything when anyone asks. I have faith in topo to not give in to anyone's tears.

Bumping to say my pastes are still up, but Pastebin removed a paste I made linking to the Quacknet ones, the cowards.

But you still have the links in your sig. :3 It's the least of concerns! Let dumbo pastebin do whatever they want, you'll find a way to bypass that and end up on top anyway.

Well yeah, of course, I just wanted to let the people know not to trust Pastebin with any "unpopular" information.
