Well, consider a couple things though, Karuna is a user that signed up to WP as of August 18th this year, only slightly more than a month ago, and they're making statements such as:

Which is to say they aren't actually a new user probably, but rather is more likely just yet another new username of someone here previously and probably is along with the rest of the Intensity Squared group who are here to make trouble.

You read HER ;) post right. I basically took a pause because of some serious health issues I'm experiencing at the moment.


I hope your health improves soon.


*Huff* They're Not From I2!!

And there are plenty of people from I2 who DON'T cause trouble, y'know. *waves hi* (or at least tries not to)


Yes, I realize the difference between the words "everyone", meaning the entire set, and "some", meaning a subset of crazy.


It was people who happen to be from a forum called I2 bullying you, not I2 as a collective.

Most members of I2 couldn't be arsed upping WP's visitor count by 1 let alone causing trouble here. Just my observation.

The moderating is far better then it used to be. So long as Alex Plank doesn't directly get involved in moderating its all good. Long may it stay that way.

It's a forum designed for, among other things, support. I would expect moderation to be a little heavier anyway. *shrug*

T'was way back in the olden days, a group of people felt that WP was just too stuffy an atmosphere and the moderators were unjust and unkind to their fuddy duddy ways so they designed another Aspie chat board ZOMGAspies. There was a dichotomy amongs't those posters as well and IntensitySquared ( or I2) was created.

Over the years there have been full on raids from ZOMGAspies on WP - not denial of service or anything as sophisticated as that, but concentrated troll attacks via faux suicide ranters, concern trolls and other unpleasantries.

sorry, I must catch my bus

I know this, regardless of however many times MidlifeAspie or anyone else of the subset who is out to behave like brats says otherwise.

iamnotaparakeet, we have no control over what happens offsite, and when it spilled over to WP it was dealt with as well as the moderators could do. if you have a bone to pick with MidLifeAspie or any other members about their behaviour on another site, WP is not place to air that laundry. we will always try to make WP a safe and welcoming environment, but that is where our influence ends.

Yes, I know you and the other moderators have no control over the I2 forum. Thanks for doing what you can here.

Yes I guess ZOMG kinda run it's course and Soph cancelled the hosting/domain. People probably get fooled by I2's low member count and assume it's a relatively inactive forum. It's 1/100th the size of WP in terms of member count yet it has 1/5th the amount of posts :o
