My thread 'Funny (A Little Offensive) Autism T-Shirt' on the Mature Forum was moved to the Global Moderators forum. Why??? :? :(

hi, Bec.

on reflection, alex decided that the content of the site you linked to was inappropriate for the board, and so moved it.

sorry if it's caused any confusion. :(

I wasn't the one who moved it, but I have an idea. People were quoting the shirts, some of which are truly tasteless (ie: making fun of rape and murder). People who want that kind of humour are better of at ebaumsworld.com or reading the alt.tasteless newsgroups. If it helps at all, I have seen the "autistic kids rock" shirts at less controversial web sites. If you posted a link to one of those it would probably survive.

Okay then. I agree with the decision. No harm done. I was extremely hesitant about starting that thread to begin with, but that was the only site where I've seen one of the 'Autistic Kids Rock' shirts. My deepest apologies to alex and everyone else at WP. :(
