Can we have a new board?

Post Reply New Topic

Someone suggested we should have a board for people who are borderline AS. They feel they don't fit in with aspies and they don't fit in with NTs. They aren't aspie enough but yet they aren't NT enough.

doesnt that just make things more.....[cant think of a word,but more--apart rather than together,splitting up a community into order of severity etc]?,if that was going to happen,then shouldnt there be a board for mild,moderate and severe as,classic autism [hfa-lfa],
pddnosers [mild,moderate,severe] etc as all have different needs depending on the severity?
think its a lot better when its all in the same place because all share at least some things in common,and all could learn from each other.
having seperate boards just means seperating everyone out,and making things less obvious to those who dont happen to be checking that specific board.

That's quite a good idea I reckon.

It will help a lot of members feel they have a place.

Yeah I'm borderline, still really a bit confused and overwhelmed about all of this.


I put down not sure that I have it. What ever the hell I am I enjoy reading and posting here, so it doesn't matter really to me.

Isn''t that a most odd thing for you to say?

Given that your sig currently reads:

The word is "divisive".

Oh I must be a hypocrite then

I agree with KingdomofRats's sentiments. No sense in dividing us up into little cliques.

Sounds like a reasonable idea, however it would be rather redundant though, because people tends to post everywhere regardless on message boards. Still, probably should be considered as it allows a general area designated for borderline, but the problem is, what constitutes borderline by unanimous definition?

I would definitely apperiate that board, as I have many social skills, yet I'm Autistic

if they feel they don't fit in, then they are probably more aspie than they think.

Remember TM1? He didn't think he was aspie (other issues) but was a great contributor.
