I still don't know how that happened LOL.....it's sort of eerie.

It took me quite a while to get to even 500 posts.

I never made a concerted effort to get a high post count.

Probably sometimes, I was half asleep LOL

I've been on here for almost 6 years.

I average about 30 posts per day.

There are days when I post nothing; there are days when I might post 100 times.

Story of my life. I was diagnosed with Aspergers in 2013 the year the DSM got rid of it.

I do agree that forums are more autistic friendly precisely because you do not have to reply immediately. I reply in comments sections. For most articles if you do not comment within a day of it being published nobody will read it. In a forum the topic will be bumped up.

As a person with executive dysfunctions there being less postings now is a good thing.

Actually, it was 2 weeks later. It just felt like a month.

I lurked for 2 weeks while I was being assessed. I signed up the day I go diagnosed and delved right in.

I would say all totaled, no exaggeration, all forums combined I've been on since 2013, I have easily made over 100,000 posts.

I'm an impulsive poster but I am not doing it for the post count.

I only have about 30-35 posts on Aspie Central

I've been in a couple of other forums where I had very low post counts---under a 100, certainly.

Personally, I think I would post more if the Getting to Know You section was inside the Members Only area. There's extra caution needed when sharing to a publicly viewable space versus sharing with a smaller (and not search-engine indexed) group.

I found it kind of confusing when there was a really great sticky in that section about managing information disclosure that was then immediately followed by several other stickies asking for some of the very information the first one said not to publicly give out.

Ha I never noticed or thought of that before. Pretty ironic. The thing with the introduce yourself thread is it's supposed to entourage others checking out the site to do the same.

Well I don't mind the initial introduction being public. That makes sense I think. Just the more specific details I'd be more comfortable with sharing more privately.
