I knew there would be no problem with continuing. But I though I might as well wait a bit.

I can't speak for wrongplanet as I am quite new here, but there are a ridiculous amount of sock puppets over on AFF.

I started noticing some very interesting patterns.

Have you guys noticed much of this?

Over there, absolutely - and that's just on the publically viewable threads. It's really not a very nice place at all.
Here? Maybe occasionally, plus a few outstanding astroturfers, but it's all easily spotted and normally dealt with very quickly.

Yeah, my girlfriend was banned for politely letting people know that I was not on a "lethal drug combo."

As many of you know, there is something mighty fishy going on over and, to a lesser extent, over here as well.

Oh well, I've already emailed Alex the first installment in my featured column here. It is a fun, encouraging and humorous piece, entitled, "Geek Chic: Owning my Asperger's." I haven't heard back from Alex, but it he suggested he would like to get it up pretty soon.

I can't say enough how surprised I am by the civility over here.

For days a crew thugs (many of them doubtlessly sock puppets) were allowed to do everything they could to tear my name apart.

My girlfriend kept contacting moderators to get it to stop, so they banned her.


I'm not sure there is anything left to salvage over there.

They told my girlfriend that everyone who participated in the conversation about my meds (in which she was merely clarifying the truth) was banned, but Grey area is on there right now.

It seems a little financial contribution can allow you to get away with murder over there.

Cornflake... get on it Sherlock!

Thanks, very interesting. See my PM.

From this point on anyone who wants to get in touch with me can do so in a pm. So long as you are polite, I will respond.
