I'm an Aspie, full on. And you have a topic full of Aspies requesting pictures of other Aspies, on the internet no less. Not sure about here, but on MOST sites that have a decent reputation, thats illegal. I made a joke, which I can sift through the site in about 10 minutes and pull out 500 other joke topics FAR more serious than mine, and that lasted much longer, without the person coming clean.

Don't be such a hard ass on a JOKE TOPIC. Just a friendly suggestion. =D

You have an obligation to read and respect the rules of the site http://www.wrongplanet.net/postt12459.html

Normally your little joke would have gotten you banned instantly but I happen to believe in giving people a second chance - do as you will with it.

Maybe you'd like to take some time and think about the ways your joke might have hurt and upset people *just a thought*

Incest is not a joke to a lot of people. I dont understand why you just cant come on here and be yourself instead of making stuff up.

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here to comemorate the all-too-short on-line life of Aldent8807. This beloved {insert appropriate gender noun here} was considered a daring individual...

I am not sure what I missed but some people love to joke around and be funny and they feel that is being themselves.

And some people are victims of incest and perhaps dont find the clowning around so amusing. Also it was really gross, what he was posting.

If telling a not-funny joke was grounds for being banned, I'd have been banished from the living many times over.

Just to make something clear: the OP was not warned because his joke was not funny but because he broke the ToS. It's as simple as that. If he stays within the rules the quality of his humour is irrelevant.
