WAIT! APPARENTLY IT'S STILL UP! DON'T GO THERE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!!
-- correction -- it's there if your ISP still has a cached copy of the IP address in their DNS servers. It'll take a few days for the IP to wash out of the system.
In the meantime - don't do it. I'm deadly serious.

I don't see anything wrong with the site. I've visited it before, and sure, I remember what the image looks like... but I doubt it has affected my life.
It's all fun and games (til someone loses an eye... but ssshh)

It's just wrong. I'm told there's worse images, but dammit, I do NOT want to see them. It's just a filthy image and it still makes me feel ill.

I first learnt of that site years ago on /. before they scripted it to automaticaly list the actualy url of every link...some bastards used to hide a goatse link under an innocuous link
I'm gonna be a dumb arse.
Post 12
Because I'm judging from your comments, I think I've seen worse...
now where is freedom of speech?
Note: It's not that I'm challenging El Pres' warning... But I think I have an idea of what you guys mean. And believe me, I've seen worse.

Shouldn't the responsible mod at least add in a line that he's edited the post?
Anyway, I guess it's safe to assume that he/she didn't read what I wrote before clicking on the link :p

Im on their mailing list :D

I see the free speech argument, and sure it is.
Free speech also covers my right to be happy that it's going down.
Also you need to remember freedom to contract - if the goatse site operators have broken their agreement with the .cx registry, I'd support the latter's taking action.

Closing goatse is like demolishing a national heritage site.

I'm forced to agree with you, as not-pretty as it is, it does have a certain place in the history of the internet.
Although even a memory of it is too much for some.

Well there are operative mirrors if you love it so much.
It may be part of current internet culture, but such things go by-the-by in time. What used to be "B1FF" is now "1337"; "all your base" is passe, and so on and so forth.
