ZooVille
Zooville.org [1] is a zoophilia forum created on Feburary 22nd, 2019. It creation began when Beastforum had announced it's shutdown notice to is userbase a month prior in January 2019. It was founded with ZTHorse and several other zoophiles from the ex-Beastforum membership who felt the continuation and need for a zoophile forum on the open-web. The new moderator team soon opened private chatrooms to move prominent users from the forum into the initial funding phase and into gathering as many zoophiles as possible from beastforum. This was given the project name "exodus".
After Project Exodus was complete, the initial startup funding was achieved and zooville.org was launched using vBulletin forum software. This is considered zooville.org's 1.0 phase that lasted from feburary 2019 until september 2019.
This forum software was later abandoned due to a security breach involving vBulletin and leaking zooville.org's 1.0 database, as well as many major corporations data. The leak was considered a 0-day attack and wasn't a specific attack on the forum. [2]
Zooville.org after September 2019 switched to Xenforo forum software. This switch over meant all previous members had to re-register using encrypted email services. The forum also increased security measures and swept IP's from users on a regular basis incase of a 0-day attack on the software.
Content Policies
Zooville's content posting policies are more strict that the previous beastforum. There is strict guidelines and anti-abuse policies involved in content posting and creation. [3]
The forum is friendly to content creators, allowing direct monetization of zoophilic content to its creators via cryptocurrencys if they wished to do so and if they follow guidelines within their respective countries. [4]
Social Structure.
Zooville.org moderation team held that the prevalence of censorship and strict rules on the previous beastforum harmed the social growth of the zoo community. Zooville took the base structure of beast-forum categories familiar with the previous userbase and modified them to allow more freedom of expression as well as laxing its moderation on speech and heated topics.
