This person whoever they are have said on quite few occasions that they will kill themselves and they want everyone on voat to watch it on a webcam.
Okay. Thanks for the clarification. The link you provided in the post only went to PG_Retard's profile -- there was nothing specific to what you are talking about. Having seen his posts over and over again, and given the fact that he has taken to claiming to be James Alefantis, it's highly unlikely this threat is serious, especially since he hasn't provided links to any YouTube channels.
If anything like this goes down it will be spread all over the net and it will be forever connected to this site.
This is a good point, and might be a good argument to make to
v/ProtectVoat
and PuttItOut for banning his account Voat-wide. If I try to make that case, though, I will get pounded for "mod censorship". You might want to bring this up to VictorSteinerDavion who is an owner of
v/pizzagate
and might have insight into how/what to do, if anything.
Do make your case calmly and rationally, though. The committment to free speech here is very, very strong and anything that smacks of silencing someone's offensive comments is going get you rejected by the Voat immune system. Here's a post by Crensch explaining that:

Dude, what the hell are you
talking
shrieking about?
I spent all of last night and most of tonight dealing with an asshole trying to discredit a survivor using a fake account misappropriating her YouTube videos. I also banned FIVE PG_Retard alts. I have no power to do more than that.

: Please review the submission guidelines in the sidebar.
v/pizzagate
is for research posts investigating child sex abuse by the global elite only. Posts about the moderation of the board belong in
v/pizzagatemods
. Removing per Rule 4.
If someone has threatened you, you need to provide evidence -- a screenshot or archive link. Mods cannot make sitewide bans. Those must be made by the owner of Voat, it's only admin.
If you do bother him and expect to be listened to, I highly recommend you take a more tactful approach than this bullshit. Voat is rabidly anti-censorship; demanding mods remove things that offend you is going to alienate just about anyone.
As will shitting on the submission guidelines for this subverse so you can vent your spleen.
Really? You don't say. We've banned him over
TWO HUNDRED TIMES
. Take your complaint to
v/ReportSpammers
or direct message PuttItOut, who runs Voat. Mods only have the power to ban individual users from this subverse. He just makes alts.

That's my nickname for the asshole. He has made over 200 alts, each with a different name, which we have banned.

What "it" are you talking about? I have seen no threats made on this forum since threats were made to a mod last week.

Amen! I wasn't aware of the "suicide" threat. But that idiot should have been banned MONTHS ago.
