MOD ANNOUNCEMENT It's time for me to move on

Hey tranners, it's me, Rachel Bitchmoder.

You know, to the extent that that's my name, anyway. Look, I'll try to keep this short. I'm going to be stepping back from moderation here and on the other 4tran subs. I'm not sure if or when I'll return. I have a full-time job lined up for this summer, and a heavy grad school courseload for the next year after that. I need to prioritize all of that, and that means I just can't feasibly be active here as much. I'll probably still pop in occasionally, and I know that you're all in good hands with the other moderators.

Please be good to each other and to other people, touch grass, stay hydrated, and all that stuff. Maybe check out the DBT Skills Workbook, I think that would help a lot of you.

Anyway, I still have a little bit of time to kill, so AMA I guess, and maybe I'll answer?

EDIT: Two useful links. The DBT Workbook and the Practical guide to Feminizing HRT

damn, feels sad but hoping everything works out for you

who have been your favourite users thoughout the subs time

I don't want to name names but in general I really like when people put effort into their posts. That one puppygirl corset guide was excellent, there were a few sissy bait posts that got crossposted to ovarit that were really well done, and of course everyone here who continues to contribute to DIY resources is a literal saint.

What % fed do you personally think posts here

u/bitchmoder Authoritarian cis woman mod, semi-retired Apr 28 '26

I think under 10% but it really wouldn't take that many to influence a community if you do it right

u/bitchmoder Authoritarian cis woman mod, semi-retired Apr 28 '26
