Have I done something wrong?

Post Reply New Topic

The topic that I started about travel permits looks to have vanished, how come?

No, you haven't done anything wrong. Your thread had been accidentally removed in the spam purge earlier today. I have sent it back to GAD where it belongs.

Oh right, cheers. I never know if I've done something wrong or not. I haven't had much luck in the autism cyber world. I got banned from an Aspergers Support facebook page within 24 hours cos they didn't think I had it and my posts on the NAS forum don't appear to the public, I submit stuff and no errors come up when I'm doing it but they don't appear, no one can see them, it's like I'm being censored. I asked them about it a couple of times but they just ignored me and so I still can't post there.

you may indeed be censored.

i sometimes wonder what the intent is behind excluding all non autistic from autism spectrum groups. much less, merely by speculation.

i'd have said that communities rarely thrive when viewpoints and experiences that differ from the "norm" are suppressed, but autistics are a huge colorful group.

I've had it before where forum admins have changed my settings so that all my posts go for approval and if they get approved by the admins they appear and if not, they don't. It's like a silent way to ban you as your account looks active but yet you can't join in, if they're sick of you they don't let anything get submitted. It's annoying especially when they won't respond to your PMs or emails asking why they're doing that. I'm a real animal enthusiast and do animal life-saving but I'm banned from one main wildlife forum (for spamming apparently even though I don't think I said anything bad and I'd only done about 5 posts before I was banned) and I'm censored on a animal forum that I used to post on a lot which I don't think is fair as I don't think I did anything too wrong and I can't get involved with animal news and sharing stuff no more. It sucks when you're not accepted and shoved out. I too think all sorts of people should be allowed to contribute, I've been told a lot over the years that I liven places up and it's refreshing, shame not everyone appreciates unique views and people. Over the last few years I've steered away from forums and rarely post now on any because I'm sick of peoples' dramas and the stick I get but it would be nice to go into the autistic world of the internet and be able to talk freely and get advice when you need it without being judged or banned or censored.

It might help if all moderators applied the same rules equally to every member all of the time; but then someone who's just having one bad day might end up banned for life.

You aren't doing anything wrong; the way I see it is that they are the ones doing the wronging.
Nobody should be censored for trying to receive or give advice or for simply having a different view of reality.
The primary thing that irks me about the neuro-typical syndrome are when they go so far as to suppress information/posts/etc., but also additionally add more insult by misrepresenting who you are and what you said, even going so far as to make it sound like XYZ happened when it was really ABC or reporting to everybody else that you wrote X even when what you really posted may have been Y;

One particular b***h that I have in mind who does that is the moderator (alleged NDE survivor Linda Stewart) of the Yahoo Groups NDE forums. She is the very definition of New Age Cult as far as I'm concerned, unwilling to even consider the idea that any beliefs she might have about reality or the so-called after-life are actually false or inaccurate, even when compelling information was obtained from the very so-called after-life world itself ! Also, she is a complete hypocrite, and a liar, someone who claims to have broken out of black-and-white thinking, yet continues behaving exactly like a black-and-white dogmatic-thinker (not that she even has any brains or capacity to even do any actual thinking).

I asked The Messiah about these kinds of people and, according to him, they have very bleak destinies, and they will continue to descend down into the depths of hell for their continued deceptions upon the masses, for that becomes their "karmic consequence" for deceiving others (i.e.: they will continue to falsely believe that they and their followers are guaranteed a place in heaven when in reality they are ironically paving their own destinies into guaranteed twilight-zones of realms of hell for their deceptions against others and "God" will make sure that they continue into existences of perpetual-deception that lead them into the abyss to be crushed for an eternity or two of eternities and a day, even if two billions of years worth of suffering is required, and perhaps even for-ever in on-going perpetuity if necessary for them to be crushed into oblivion and eventually destroyed for being a bad seed amongst creation).

@ Fnord - Tell me about it. Some people are way sensitive and impulsive.

@ Ban-Dodger - We're kind of on the same wave-length. Neurotypicals have taken what I've said the wrong way loads of time in cyberland and misread my intentions. I've been accused of being racist before when as far as was concerned what I said made no reference to race whatsoever so I didn't even understand why they'd accuse me of being racist, to me it was out-of-the-blue. Lots of things I've said has been twisted. I was once talking about babies and then drama kicked off with people saying I was trying to be mean to a member of the forum who's had a succession of miscarriages and it was a sly personal attack against her but it wasn't, I wasn't even talking about her and she wasn't involved in the discussion, she didn't cross my mind when I was talking about babies. It makes you scared to say anything in case it's misinterpreted.

I used to post on pop fan forums a lot and one thing I noticed about forum owners is that they're often teachers in real life so they're bossy and used to telling people off like children, lol.

@ Kiprobalhato - You're right, my avator is a common pose I do, lol. I'm glad the opinion police aren't rife on this forum.

oh i had encountered the teacher at goodreads too,
re-directing the discussion to highschool-interpretations, im 40years past that, fork im not going to go back to that level,
correctness is always required bs
in correctness it is so that it is never your turn!
