I have 10mm static rope, but it's pretty stiff and I'm finding it's difficult to tie. I managed to make a noose knot, but with any little movement the knot loosens a bit and releases tension in the loop. I don't think the knot would come fully undone, and I think the rope is strong enough to hold my weight, but I'm imagining if I tried partial, it would be very easy to loosen it with either SI or convulsions. When I was practicing knots, I was using a necktie and bathrobe tie, which resulted in tight knots that didn't loosen without some force. Is that what I'm going for? Would a different kind of rope give me a tighter knot?

Hey Guest,
We will never comply with any of OFCOM's demands or any other nations censorious demands for that matter. We will only follow the laws of the land of which our server is located, which is the US.
Any demands for censorship or requests to comply with the law outside of the US will be promptly ignored.
No foreign laws or pressure will make us comply with anti-censorship laws and we will protect the speech of our members, regardless of where they might live in the world. If that means being blocked in the UK, so be it. We would advise that any UK member gets a VPN to browse the site, or use TOR.
However, today, we stand up these these governments that want to bully or censor this website.
Fuck OFCOM, and fuck any media organization or group that think it's cool or fun to stalk or bully people that suffering in this world.
Edit: We also wanted to address the veiled threats made against a staff member in the UK by the BBC in the news today. We are undeterred by any threats, intimination, by the BBC or by any other groups dedicated to doxxing and harassing our staff and members. Journalists from the BBC, CTV, Kansas Star, Daily Mail and many other outlets have continuiously ignored the fact that many of the people that they're interviewing (such as @leelfc84 on Twitter/X) and propping up are the same people posting addresses of staff members and our founders on social media. We show them proof of this and they ignore it and don't address it.They're all just as evil as each other, and should be treated accordingly. They do not care about the safety of our staff members, founders, or administrators, or even members, so why would they care about you?
Now that we have your attention, journalists, will you ever address this? You've given these evil people interviews, and free press.

Most opt for the 8mm, if you go smaller, it gets more painful.
With the rope you're using, tie to something high enough, and then hang on with your hands, both feet off the ground. Kind of jerk around on it and see if the knot holds up. If it doesn't, you may need to go down to a 10 or 8 mm rope. The thicker the rope, the harder it is for a knot to hold.
I just realized you said you were using a 10mm rope. For some reason my brain read that as 12mm.

I started wondering if a different type of rope might be easier to knot. Tried a noose knot and a slip knot with what I have, and while the slip knot didn't seem to loosen the way the noose knot did, it still was able to loosen the loop enough that I'm concerned SI would give it just enough to allow blood flow again.
Or maybe I just need to improve my knot skills....or maybe I'm overthinking everything

A slipknot works just as good as a hangman's noose, and a lot less dealing with getting the rope tied. An 8mm nylon or poly rope is a good rope that will hold a knot, be sure to check the weight limit of the rope.
You can find videos on YouTube on how to make slipknots, it's hard to describe in words without pictures.

What knots were you trying to tie? Were you going for a noose knot and snuggle hitch or noose knot and bowline knot?
I was going for a noose knot, and then I'll try snuggle hitch for the anchor, but I didn't get past the noose knot yet.
