In spite of her godawful political views, she's an excellent moderator. FF.

HP. She's always been one of my least favorite moderators on here, and comes across as arrogant and condescending. I would rate TJ in Oregon, Associate Professor PiT, Mr. X, and YE above her in terms of how well they handle their duties here.

TexasGurl’s politics aren’t that unique and her personality isn’t very noticeable for me to give a rating. She’s perhaps the most major person here on account of her mod status and number of posts that seems quite unremarkable.

Still, I can barely remember what she even posts, so I cannot in any good faith give an opinion.

Given the above, she’s probably an incredibly bland normie which is probably for the best for her.

Don't care for her. Also:

The weird fan clubs all female posters get is one of the creepier aspects of this forum.


To be honest, reading the 2009 thread with the 2021 one, while there may be a way to do, Atlas seems better to me in the "weird fan clubs for female posters" department.

Maybe by 2030 those fan clubs will be a thing of the past!

I don't yet have the obligatory fan club, but I suppose that may come with time. I'm sure I'll both lovingly relish in it and live timidly in its fearful shadow as the masses drool at my feet.

I do agree, however, that it's typical questionable parasocial behavior emboldened by patriarchal norms, and we could use less of it.

FF. I can think of one or two disagreements I've had with her moderation, but she's a principled veteran, a mom, and a welcome break from the Millennial-Zoomer milieu of Atlas.


Variety is the spice of life, and this includes genders.

Obvious FF is obvious. She has to put up with more sh**t than basically anyone here, and she does it with class and grace.

HP. She's always been one of my least favorite moderators on here, and comes across as arrogant and condescending. I would rate TJ in Oregon, Associate Professor PiT, Mr. X, and YE above her in terms of how well they handle their duties here.

Wow, this might be the biggest misread anyone has ever made in the 17+ years this forum has existed.

I wish that I could agree with your progressive sentiments, but, after the misfortune of having read one of the "Opinion of PQG" threads not long ago, must note my dissent.

To be fair, the cause there is not entirely the forum community alone.

If you're trying to creep her out of this forum, it isn't going to work.  Tongue

Likes to delete stuff from threads that are actually toward the topic, but a heated discussion.  Makes this place a boring landscape of idiotic "Opinion of" threads. Ugh. HP.

Massive FF and one of the best moderators, too. I like her aggressive approach to the job, she doesn't tolerate nonsense and that's something I value.

I mean, if you don't like her, you don't like her. You're entitled to your opinion. But "arrogant and condescending" are the last qualities I would associate with her.

Obviously, that is your assessment. She certainly tends to adopt a very "dismissive" attitude when addressing other posters who question her decisions or who have been the target of them. I myself remember an unpleasant interaction that I had with her, before my hiatus. Such impressions-whether from someone online or from someone in real life-tend to stick in my memory.
