    Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

    If you value the community and would like to help support its continued operation, donations are greatly appreciated. If you wish to donate via Bank Transfer or other options, please open a ticket.

I seem to remember reading about an English hangman from the 1800's who prided himself on making his executions as quick and painless as possible. Just a few seconds. Seems he had a rather odd last name. Anyone here know who I might be talking about?

You are probably thinking of William Marwood. (The one who introduced long drop instead of the short drop)
