A: So a few years ago I started a server on the internets that was designed to allow people to comment on each other’s posts, and be generally pretty awesome.

Well, after the server took off and got really popular and made me pretty rich, I decided that we needed to capitalize on some other developers using our site to make money, so I decided to start charge them every time they use my server. It’s a totally reasonable thing to do! But now they’re all mad at me! What am I supposed to do, since I’m beholden to a bunch of VCs and I’ve got an IPO and everything, I got to make them dolla dolla bills y’all.

Could use some advice.

TL;DR Changed a setting on my server, now people are mad. lul

Welcome to TIFU.

This community will stand as a tribute to the fuck up in all of us. We all do something stupid from time to time, this is your place to share and laugh about it with folks on the internet!

Da Rules:

  1. Use proper formatting

A. All titles must start with TIFU.

B. All posts must have a TL;DR at the end. Some of us are too lazy to read your story, sorry.

C. Use the NFSW Tag, if a Post isn’t Appropriate in General but still follows the rules. (Sex stories and etc.)

  1. Posts must be about you.

  2. Must be your fault.

  3. A few things that aren’t allowed.

A. No Rape​/​minors/​bestiality. No death of animals. No glorification of major crimes.

B. Illegal activities that you glorify or giving advice on how to do something illegal.

  1. Must be actual fuckups No humblebrags or stories that have zero consequences and don’t go anywhere. Eg “TIFU by sexy sex”. Moderator discretion.

  2. Be civil and don’t be disruptive No racism/​bigotry/​homophobia/​transphobia. No personal attacks on other users, no name-calling. No low-effort “this didn’t happen” type comments.

  3. No Self Promotion No making posts with the express purpose of promoting your business/video game/porn career. Even if not mentioned within the text of the post, alluding to links on your profile is not allowed. This covers implying you will set up a stream/public link/onlyfans in the future, having set up one in the past, or anything along the lines of “upvote this comment if you want me to do this.” These examples are by no means comprehensive, just don’t self promote.

  4. Mod Discretion Mods have the right to supersede any rule and make removals as we see fit, which may or may not be the rules listed in this community.
