Maybe alex should add a new rule, no talking down about the self diagnosed or no critical comments about it or and no questioning about the self diagnosed members.
I don't think that's fair at all. Self-diagnosis IS questionable (hence the frequent debates about it); banning people from expressing that view isn't going to make it go away. If anything, it will just mean that people become MORE irked about it because they are denied the freedom to discuss it. Making it punishable to say anything negative about self-diagnosis is a step too far in my opinion, and would make another group of us feel shunned and unwelcome.
Official diagnoses is also questionable........that being said I do not think there should be a rule against criticizing or questioning self diagnoses open discussion should be welcome. However, I dont think people should be talked down to for being self diagnosed but I think personal attacks are already against the rules so that's probably covered.
