I had assumed that was the intention :lol:

Though I have to ask - do you mind if I crop out the rest, and just leave the relevant lines in?


Feel free to show all screen shots. Even Alex wants to make sure she won't be modding anymore places.

I think hiding irrelevant lines will make people think we are trying to hide something and we only want them to see what we want them to see and it will give them an excuse to not buy the truth.

...You're right. Best to leave it unvarnished and in full.

I don't think there are many AS sites which are going to be left out of the loop on this one...AFF admin here, one of the Spectrumites admins is aware, not sure about Autism Forums, I^2 would just be hilariously improbable....Aspievillage might not be aware...

Just PM'd an Aspievillage modmin, so they know.

it says in the rules you can't personally attack another member, but there is an attack against this member, why are the moderators and Alex allowing such a thing? Am I next?

Sorry it seems you have joined at a difficult time. Normally, we follow the rules and the moderators (of which I am one) help sure that happens. This temporary disruption seems to make it a little less clear how solid a few of those rules are ... but following them is still the best plan. Everything will shake out in due time. Things like this are common on internet forums; that doesn't make it any more fun while it's going on, but leaves enough experience to suggest the storm won't last.

Unless you are a former member returning with a new name, you won't be next. If you have any concerns or problems, you can contact me (I seem to recall your first post was in parent's discussion).

That's not an attack. It's the truth. No, you're not next.

This would suggest that I may be next. I haven't been banned again but I did have to come back with a different name. I didn't feel that my being banned was justified. If I am a target for anything unsavory, I don't wish to be and would rather leave first.

Exposure has to be necessary in this case, with regard to the guilty party, so it can hopefully be prevented from happening again in other places on the net.

Is there a problem with that?

Okay, so the wolf dog looks pretty threatening. So is that your message? Can you be a little more direct?

That's a lot of posts! I've been on AFF for three years and I've "only" made 6660 posts

And nothing. Was simply exclaiming in surprise.

The dog was what's called a "reaction shot" - in this case, surprise and disbelief, like this, this and this.

Should I be advised about a limit in number of posts?

That happens when you're autistic. Can you explain a little better perhaps or should I better be able to surmise on my own? I want to know what's appropriate and what isn't.

I was both impressed and amazed that you made that many posts in that timeframe. Nothing more than that - no ill intent or backhanded comment. As I said, I've "only" made 6660 posts in three years at AFF, and I thought that was pretty good going :lol:

Oh, thanks for that clarification.
I guess I have a lot to say. :lol:
