I have not attacked OWA, only his behavior. I do not wish to silence him, I want to encourage him to speak with substance. Would you have the voices of discontent be silent?

Yes, please do read the complete thread about my "confirmed" NPD dx. It's good to have such reliable sources of information as TM1, willing to cite their sources.

Did you read the article from Buzzle.com about Aspies being misdiagnosed with NarccissiticPD?(I would give you a link but I am a computer moron)I found the link on this site so you could do a search.

No I want you to be free to say what you want. I'm going to do my best to
make sure OWA gets to say what he wants to. You started this poll for a reason.
To find what WP wants to do about your problem with OWA. I'm going to find the
people even if it takes hundreds of new members to get the support my brother
needs. Garlic maybe a joke to you people but the bond between brothers is no joke.

>>Yeah me and OWA agree. We hate those who spam useless crap just as much as you.
Thank Garlic you DO Not Mean OWA!<<

What has gotten into you TheMachine1? I always thought you were a reasonable guy - you're sounding like an idiot now. I think you need to take some time and cool off before posting again.

>>Okay Mitch8817 we know this entire thread is directed at OWA . So I'm calling you
out on your statement where he derail some important topic. Since he has 4000+ post
it would be nice if you could find at least 1% to 40 post.<<

You assume it is, I was being general - OWA just happens to be a prime example that everyone would be well aware of - as I'm sure everyone has seen at least one of OWA's multitude of posts about nothing that seem to be all over the place.

And I don't know about you, but I don't have time to filter through 4000 posts just to prove a point I am already well aware of being true, and I'm sure many people would vouch for me.

Don't get me wrong though, I'm sure he is a great guy and I don't know him in the slightest, but there is a time and a place and a *limit* for everything, and part of being respected is respecting other people.

>>Aspie voices will not be silence on my watch.<<

Who said silencing? How about redirecting into something relevant, helpful, insightful, meaningful - or at the very least *relevant*. Otherwise, there are hundreds of other forums to go to, I'm sure.

>>I too would like a better definition of spam. For me, spam is advertisements for porn and viagra.<<

For the sake of this topic, I am treating spam as off-topic, irrelivent and alltogether useless (over) posting.

>>At least five of the following are necessary for a diagnosis:
- has a grandiose sense of self-importance
- is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
+believes that he or she is "special" and unique and can only be understood by other special people
- requires excessive admiration
- strong sense of entitlement
- takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends
- lacks empathy
+is often envious or believes others are envious of him or her
- arrogant affect.<<

Sounds like pride or understanding that AS *is* indeed rare and unique, not NPD.

:lol:

Yes, I started this poll to see if I was the only one. If I was the only one then I would figure I was the person with the problem and let it go. Alex does seem less and less interested in the management of this site, so I don't think anything more will come of it beyond you getting your shorts in a knot. (I wonder why Alex is less and less interested in management of the site. Could it be the quality of posts?) Anyway, I don't think you have the commitment and tenacity for 1,001 posts, much less 10,001 posts, despite being an aspie, but please, do try.

I provided the link so people would read it. You confirmed you were dx in the post
with NPD. You said you questioned the DX . Naturally a person with NPD would.
I brought up that history because you metioned in this same thread about your intelligence. Again people can read what you said and decide if that is infact
a NPD trait you said a few minutes ago you did not have(on the list you choose 5 from).

Yes, and I concur, people should read the thread in it's entirety.
I didn't see where either intelligence or questioning authority was an NPD trait.
Are you sure all your circuits are working properly? :wink:

They killed the thread you linked to as an example by filling two pages with posts containing nothing but "garlic phrags j00, I post, never psot." Yes, they did stop, and after that there was only one post.

Jenova

I notice you have eighteen posts, which by itself is fine, but I'm curious about whether you actually read these forums yourself. Do you enjoy looking through page after page with absolutely nothing but "1337,"garlic phrags j00, I post, never psot?"

I do think it's great that one winged angel has your love and support in his life, and I have no reason to doubt your statements that he is a good hearted, fine, loyal, intelligent, young man. I wish he would show us the part of himself that he shows to you.

Look MrMark I have liked you from the beginning and that has not changed. I'm not
not putting you down by saying you have NPD. Justs it explains this thread.

Yes many peope are not crazy about OWA. But how many people here have publicly
posted their name in support of regulating OWA? Not many and I'm exposing why they
are.

And me TheMachine1? Why would I want to curb an irritating spammer? Surely because I have NPD, or perhaps I am a psychopath?

I'm sorry, I'm not following you. Are you saying that everybody who has a problem with OWA's spamming behavior has NPD, that that's the reason they have a problem with his behavior?

No thats the reason you started the thread. I'm getting to everybody else possible motives.

I don't see that as a sense of self importance. I see that as an obligation to do what I can to help my younger brothers and sisters. "The hell with what anybody else wants or needs" would constitute a sense of self-importance. (Actually, for myself, I would prefer to indulge my shyness, partly out of concern that I might appear "self-important," but I was instructed not to hide my light.) Shall we move on to preoccupations?

Maybe everybody else's motives involve the reason the word "spam" has entered the english language and is now universally understood.
