As king of Gender Studies, I wanted to bid adieu to my subjects?

I am sure most of my loyal subjects (and worthiest adversaries) are no longer around, its been a while since I came on here! I haven't been around on this website for several years now but I had to come back when I heard this place was being shut down for good. I am top of the UK Gender Studies leaderboard for those of you who don't know me. A few years ago I ruled this section but then left as this place went downhill and real life took priority. 

Here are some horonable mentions of users who rocked this place along with me in its heyday (some I got along with, some I didn't). 

Werbie

Milla

Princess Blaise

Poweranni

Common Sense

MISOA

Granny Tea

If you are a long time user, mention in your answers the memories that you have of this section, what you are going to miss about it and what do you plan to move onto next?

    Hello there! I remember you were suspected of being an alter- ego of Werbie’s although I know you weren’t. I  liked the way you two were always so affectionate with each other. You once asked a funny question-  I forget what you said but it got something like over a hundred answers.  It was so funny.

    You forgot Ya Coffee by the way.  How did you manage to forget her ?

    Yeah, well, our standards were always real low around here.

    "How can you tell he's a king?"

    "He hasn't got shyt all over him."  -- Monty Python and the Holy Grail

    I've always wondered how people from monarchies can be so tone-deaf that they don't understand how backward and primitive their references seem to people who live in republics. It's like you had somebody whose official title was "head witch doctor" or "number one cannibal." "King" and "queen"? Your HEAD OF STATE got her desk because she's the great great great etc granddaughter of a warlord??? WUT???

    It's just plain old weird. Anachronistic. Like seeing a guy wearing a spacesuit but carrying a sword.

    As anyone who has read my leftist take on the American imperial system knows, I have no love for the capitalists' structure that my countrymen & women (currently) labor under. We are fracked up,  major league. But at least we avoided some of YOUR problems. CERTAINLY, even including the Trumpazoids, Clintonites and other mental defectives, we're not as bad as your* personal* reactionary right-wing bullshlt, your class contempt for the people who actually make the world run, your racism, your sexism, and pompous sense of superiority to everyone else on the planet.

    And regarding the whole IDEA of "special people" by birth, I've always

     had a real sense of admiration for the French approach to dealing with royalty. And you and Princess never gave me any reason to question that feeling.

    Step right this way. Doctor Guillotine will see you now.

    It's the same for me. I used to be on this website quite often but haven't really visited it at all in the last few years. I just came back because I heard it was going away for good.

    Good luck with your D+ series. Take it easy on Owen Wilson, he's fragile.

    I remember how YACoffee had you beat!  I also think Granny Tea was a trans, or some sort of hermaphrodite. Iampro was the hirsute princess of the place. MISOA seemed so lonely.

    I remember you too and I didn't like your smug arrogance or the way you bullied anyone that dared disagree with you.  I remember wondering why someone so obviously intelligent spent so many hours on this site, answering and awarding your other alter ego's with BA's and I don't believe for one minute that you left this site, to somehow return at it's demise, you've been here all along, under another name, perhaps 'Jerry'?

    Somehow you amassed 'BA's in months to ruthlessly knock other people off the Leader Board, in your rush to prove that you too, had too much time on your hands and no friends or family to spend valued free time with.  I did make the bottom of the Leader Board, with only one account, and 10 years of 'service's, not sure how I did it, cos' it was obvious that many of your 'fans' disliked my views.

    My memories of this place are of how many delusional and ignorantly sexist people are.  Though in amongst the sexist scum, were some real gems, people that didn't shout from the 'rooftops' and didn't care about 'trolling' (though I'm sure there is some harmless fun in some trolling'.

    You never mentioned either Liz or Elena, who to my knowledge have been contributing to GS for many years too.  Nor Don't Call Me Dude, who was also around when you bombarded GS with your own sense (non).  Other 'Trolls' have come, dished out their insults and gone.  I will only miss the odd funny questions and the sometimes warm and friendly people that came to share some wisdom.  

    Oh yes and who could forget people like Pearl, Pearl L, Kunzy and Dead Poo, who can only type one sentence in answer and usually this one sentence is either an insult or drivel.
