The moderation here is a joke.

Too bad there might have been a lot of friendly people here to share thoughts with.
But this site.. I'll leave it here and just say farewell! :)

And site Admins, shame on you!

They could be better, I agree. But I would say overall, they are not bad people... But I hope you find a better site you can enjoy.

Has anything in particular prompted this? You have only been on the site two days, made 12 posts, and as far as I can tell you haven't had any troublesome interaction with other users.

The problem isn't the moderation, it's the members. Over time, autistic spaces tend to be monopolized by the most affected people that need the most support, and by and large, those are not people that you want to spend a lot of time around, harsh as that may sound. WP went around that particular bend a few years ago, and now is largely populated by difficult people repeating the same inanities, hence my own pulling away from the site.

I have to agree, but I think the majority of the heavy posters may have others issues on top of Autism... But anyways, nice G36k!

If everyone could some up some response to that, well, the site would be a smiling happy place, but alas, the wind keeps changing speed and direction. Some schoolboy hobby attempt has turned into a malware hacking system freak accident from Jurassic Park II. Bear in mind there is only one site instructor now.. he sets the tone for the rules.. and his dedicated followers choose to pursue the lethal cocktail with mixed caution, sceptism and a hint of dry admiration.
