Opinion of Ernest as a person

[Oswald Acted Alone, You Kook]

He's a terrible mod, but I like his random references, so I vote FF.

[Eraserhead]

I don't really know him at all as a person, so no opinion. Not exactly the greatest idea for a poll here, Obummer.

[Ebowed]

woohoo

[SATW]

FF

[Mr. Smith]

Poster Ernest is FF

But I can't tell you about person Ernest, or anyone here for that matter. Never met anyone IRL from Atlas.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

An interesting fellow.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I don't see anything wrong with him as a person and he isn't that bad of a moderator either. East FF.

[free my dawg]

I have no problems with Ernest the Person or Ernest the Poster.

[Antonio the Sixth]

There are very few posters I'd be comfortable judging as a person.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

He is rather intelligent and I have never had any problems with him.

Having interacted with Ernest a fair amount, I certainly consider him a fine human being. He's honest and tries to do the right thing, as he sees it, and is always calm, and has a good temperament.

And yes, I do disagree with some of his moderation policies, but then despite my reputation, I consider myself a pretty laissez faire Mod outside the realm of personal attacks (the Update thing being a rather unique issue). But his policies are within his discretion to fashion, as well as his strictness in enforcing them (and I admit I ignore some infractions absent a report - Ernest typically does not, so arguably he is doing his job better than I). And when any mod seems beyond the terms of use in his actions, and other mods consider it of sufficient importance, there is chat about that.

I wouldn't claim that myself, tho it does help that I typically take long enough to type a reply that I sometimes edit myself before posting, or even abandon the post. It's a lot easier to be calm when you aren't a touch typist.
