The writers there are (mostly) great, the posters and Ian the Admin, not so much....

There are occasionally some intelligent and well-thought out posts there.

The users are great, maybe better than here on average. Administration is comically terrible. On balance, FF.

The site has lasted since the 20th century, and people still generally approve of Ian. Make of that what you will.

Lots of brilliant stuff on there, and I honestly could not give two sh**ts about gamergate. Massive FS.

Mixed.

I encourage all of you to vote HS, though, as it banned me!;)

Freedom Site! I'm a bit overly addicted to it.

I do have a few issues with Ian (e.g. Wampanoag Incident), although I think he does a good job more often than not.

He probably banned everyone who didn't.

Mixed, freedom site, but it's weird and kind of discouraging seeing so many banned users on a forum. Even the author of Zhirinovsky's Russian Empire is banned for unknown reasons, I can't find anything in his account history that implies drama or a violation of a rule.

That guy was a bit too bright for his own good. My good friend Al can tell you all about it.

But seriously, amazing stories combined with all around nice posters.

He requested a ban.

People can request to be banned for a duration of their choice, for whatever reason. Think of it like, there was an Atlas poster who was very busy doing very important things and didn't want to get distracted by Atlas. They ask to be banned for, say, three weeks. When this duration of time ends, they are unbanned.

FF site! A lot of very useful knowledge to be found and truly excellent stories, and the feedback I've recieved for my TL has been extremely useful and encouraging.
