Someone on this board directed a comment at me that... let's just say that, if it had been said to my face, my response would not have been acceptable in a civilized society. I understand that aspies can be unintentionally offensive, but there is simply no way for him not to realize what he was saying.

Immense frustration.

I want to have it out with this person. I don't see any way I can do that, any way I can truthfully express my feelings on the matter, without getting myself banned.

It is not in my nature to just let go of things like what he said. I don't know how to.

Seriously, just seeing his name, seeing other posts of his around, is causing me immense anger.

I should probably just stay away for a while. But I don't like letting someone chase me away from one of the few things I enjoy.

Let it all out on I2 and post it where guest can see it. Hopefully someone will snitch on you and he will see it. A place where you can have your freedom of speech without being banned, just be over 18 and don't spam the place, and violate the TOS nor threaten the forum.

Getting agrivated is something thats caused inside yourself. It depends on what you believe, you do not have to become angry because some random guy you normally do not care about typed some letters.

You can choose to react differently.

If someone of this site pissed you off send an e-mail to that person and let them know. How else are they going to know?
Communicate! (then you will know if it was intentional or not)

Hmm, maybe. Having trouble registering. Maybe later.

I accept that, but don't know how to not get angry. I mean you're 100% right, this guy doesn't know me, nor does he know my gf (who the insult was directed at), his opinion of us means less than nothing. I know consciously that he is not worth my time and mental energy, but that doesn't really help.

I can usually let stuff go pretty easily. But not disrespect toward her. There's nothing that'll piss me off more.

Stupid. Like I said, he doesn't know us. His opinion means nothing. I don't think it's the opinion that bothers me as much as him thinking that he can say something like that and get away with it. Real-life people, there's consequences when they're mean to her. But from this guy, I have to just sit back and take it.

PMed him. Kept it as civil as I could, don't wanna get banned. Told him basically that what he said was not okay, and asked him to please not respond to any of my posts in the future.

Not satisfying.

Trust me, it was intentional. You simply cannot say what he said and not realize that it is a personal attack. There's just no gray area with this one.

How come you didn't report it to the mod?

Mod caught it, or at least some other insulting comments right around it, and locked the thread.

Yeah. Guess you figured out which thread and who I'm talking about.

Stupid to be so bothered by that. I know. Can't help it.

i have to lock this thread, unfortunately. too many clues were given about which thread (and person) the OP was referring to, and it's against the rules to refer to locked threads anyway.
