Who here likes me and still wants to be friends?

Post Reply New Topic

I’m going to try other autism forums that don’t allow attacks based on political beleifs. I’ll try to reach out to those I like to arrange other forums of communication.
If that goes well I’ll stop coming here,
When every I talk about wp to people off there they all think it’s horrible and encourage me to leave. “Doesn’t sounds like a support site” is what I’m often told.
I’ve shown them it as well. Manga was right to leave, so was dox. I wish change didn’t frighten me so or I should have left when dox invited me to.

He was right. It only got worse here.
Pepe and wolfman. I’m sorry.

Perhaps it will work out with this woman in Facebook and I won’t need supoort sites anymore. Either way this place is too hateful towards me. And the people who’d be nice to me are all leaving one by one.

i don't think sly is a christian, not sure, but please don't proselytize in the haven.

i would consider you closer to a friend than a non-friend, and certainly not an enemy ideological or otherwise. i'm not on the internet to make enemies, only sad little people are.

your input is as valuable as anyone elses and i take some of the blame for not sticking up for you when you were called nasty names. still i disagree with some of your views and find it hard, sometimes very hard, to put myself in your shoes, with regards to how you may come to believe them. i don't know your background, but i imagine it's quite different than mine and that's probably why, i guess.

i can tell you are a kind compassionate person who can "remember the human" and i know you don't have harmful intentions if you ever take a position i may find hard to defend. i try to avoid arguing here in general but the temptation is strong. but it is frustrating to see you take self-defeating attitudes and inevitably suffer when whatever you were wanting didn't go as planned. you should believe in yourself more, as cheesy as it sounds.....

i remember a time, around two years ago when i was going through a VERY BAD time and letting everyone on here know about it (regret that...) and you PMed me to check up on me. it may not have been much for you, but that was a very nice gesture that i still think about on occasion, especially since i know you were going through some stuff of your own at that time as well.

also you've been here since i joined, very few people from that time are left, so that's cool too i guess

take care

Sly is a Christian.

I don’t really consider any users here to be friends. There are plenty of users who I like and respect but I don’t think this place really lends itself to friendship - obviously other people feel differently and that’s fine, whatever works for you.

That said, it cuts both ways. It’s very hard to hold animosity towards other people over the internet unless they’re really nasty. And I’ve never had any trouble with you, Sly.

I wouldn’t want to mess with those tusks

I’m pretty sure I’m a really insignificant part of the Heady World of the Walrus. It’s okay. I’m a really insignificant part of most people’s worlds....and if we really want to get all astronomical, the Earth is a really insignificant component of the Milky Way Galaxy, which is an insignificant component even of one quadrant of the Universe.

He’s a guy who looks at all the parameters. And feels disdain for those who don’t.

I feel that most people here just want to have a decent time here.

There are some who like to pull chains, and have fun at other people’s expense. It’s best to keep a detached attitude about them, and consider the source.

My opinion about Sly is that he should experience actual people more, and realize the world is not a Death Wish movie.

I’m all for enforcing the rules.

I certainly against “adapting” to the trolling methodology.

I dislike trolls and as*holes myself.

The Wicked Witch of the West was a b***h who melted and went away solely because she was a b***h. And only after people stopped “feeding” her by reacting to her.

"Bullies will go away/leave you alone if you ignore them" is a myth. What they usually do is escalate their behaviour, which is exactly what happened here lately. The only efficient way of making bullies stop is not tolerating their behaviour. When they are held accountable, many members here de-escalate their behaviour, this has been proven to work.

Sly ignoring such things won't make them disappear and it's obvious that reading even without replying still makes him feel hurt. I don't think this is something he can control. So I understand that he feels that until the rules start applying to everybody it's better for him to leave the forum and not read such things at all. Several others made the same decision, not because they are weak and overwhelmed as suggested in other threads but because there's only that much a person who respects themselves and others is going to be willing and able to tolerate when it comes to bullying and trolling.

I'm also one of those aspies (along with many others) who value rules and guidelines as a compass. Our compass is out of wack right now.

I would agree that WrongPlanet is too much a microcosm of a typical social media site, and that we should restore it to its previous condition as a place which emphasizes a unique autistic viewpoint pertaining to morality.

i enjoy having you around.
