Any comment I ignored was because I didn't think it was worth of moderation. You evidently disagree with my criteria, that is all. There are very few spaces where you can question transgederism and I wasn't going to police every wording from GC users just so we have a few more QT users. I stand by my opinion that the lack of QT users is because they are not interested in debating.

Also they are too used to be in a bubble where any question or doubt about transgenderism is treated as heresy and where everyone is forced to use "inclusive" language. Of course they won't like this sub unless we apply the same criteria than elsewhere.

And i mean that's fine, you're allowed to believe whatever you want. I'm not going to try and change your mind because you clearly had access to all this information and didn't think differently then. But the fact of the matter is house abused your lack of policing to an extreme. I stand by my opinion that primarily she created a toxic environment that the qt posters who WOULD have been interested in posting here didn't want to deal with her being given free reign.

No group is a monolith, people are unique. You're right that the majority of trans people live in that bubble, but clearly not all of them do because plenty have come and left.

Speaking as a QT the only posters who were so hostile that they would have discouraged my participation are gone now (flippyking and adungitit). And biologyisreal did delete many of flippykings comments when i reported them. I also talked to houseplant, lovesloane, and marktwainiac and it was fine. Not the nicest people but it feels patronizing to suggest QT needs people to be nice to us to participate. I stopped participating because I was told this is strictly a debate sub and not a place to ask questions about GC views, so I started lurking instead. My advice would be to broaden the scope of the sub as most QT are probably not used to debating and its super overwhelming coming in and having 7 different people responding to your posts/comments expecting answers, and everytime you respond you get 7 more answers, etc. There are no places on the internet where we can even just talk to each other openly. That might be a good start for QT.

I'm not a mod anymore, so you really don't have to hold back because of what I told you months ago.
