HA is the best TS website in the history of websites!

[BellaBellucci]

I know a lot of people have been complaining about the ongoings of this board the last few months. People complain about the new layout (which, now that I'm used to it, I actually prefer), they complain about the girls, they complain about the guys, they complain that the mods don't do anything.

ENOUGH! There is nowhere, I repeat, NOWHERE on the internet that allows more freedom of speech for our niche than HA. This board is a place where everybody, even those of us who can't stand each other, can have discourse; sometimes it's nasty, sometimes it's productive, but it's always free (in more ways than one since there's no fee to join). The mods aren't heavy handed because we're all adults and we should be able to talk to each other without resorting to name calling, stalking, threats, and violence, but they are always there when things get really out of hand. Don't get it twisted: many bans have been hammered.

The bottom line is: I value freedom of speech. I think the trans community needs to have a continuous dialog for better or worse. I think transsexual porn stars have the most exposure of any other group under the so-called trans-umbrella. And I think we ought not take this board for granted because strategic division of labor is exactly what those most in control want and without a way to communicate, that's exactly what they'd have.

You think things are bad now? Imagine if there was no HA.

Thank you HA. <3

HungDevils is a good place too, maybe better in some ways

HungDevils is regulated for political correctness by a parent company with a financial interest. This board isn't, so I fail to see how you come to that conclusion.

So what. There are a lot of boards affiliated with particular companies. Just because you're holding a grudge against an individual after starting then losing a spat doesn't mean the board is not good.

You're kidding, right?

HD isn't 'affiliated with,' it's 'owned by.'

Sour grapes.

Sour grapes.

Statement of fact.

And for the record, I didn't draw the comparison to HD. You did. And since I haven't talked about it in months, why do you think I'd start now?



Let's get back on topic and talk about HA, shall we?

I was told he didnt own HD... HD is more laid back... but they dont have the post and responses like HA. I like em both for different reasons!

It's more laid back because it's regulated more so than this site. Seanchai owns it, so someone lied to you. And this is the last thing I want to say on the subject of HD. This is NOT an HD thread.
