Yes, we have seen quite a number of members pass through here. As for you, I remember your brief yet active role as an administrator. You took the job seriously and efficiently. As for your gender identity, I never really gave it any thought. I do remember when you had a photo of yourself in a dress with pigtails, and I wondered aloud if wearing dresses was perhaps a future fashion trend!

As for your current photo, I can say with sincerity "nice hair!". Its enough to know that you are ok.
The first member whom I remember talking with who later died was Robin Rohan. The members who passed later all impacted me in that it seemed so final.(This death thing)
and I recall conversing with Asgara, Buzsaw and especially RAZD. He was so encouraging!
Anglagard was another one who impacted me in a positive way.
I dont know how your gender identity affects you and I wont pry. Many Christians (especially Conservatives) have an issue with that sort of stuff, but I am more concerned with a persons mental/physical health than I am with identity issues.
And this sums up the AI argument in a nutshell. The fact that "it" isn't human makes "it" more of a competitor than in any way a sentient being.
