My car needs a tune up and an alignment! Surely there is some WP member here with a garage, and some tools, and the tech knowhow to keep my rusty POJ on the road! I'm not asking for material things, just some friendly repairs! Oh, and an aunt died and left me with 12 cats to dispose of, would someone take the little darlings off my hands? I don't have the space for them, please???

I see what you did there. And I'm not disagreeing - that sort of request is completely inappropriate for this forum. But if I thought you truly were in dire need of some kind of guidance - even from other clueless autistic people on the internet - I would be more lenient in terms of insisting that you follow proper forum etiquette.

It's an interesting question though, where to draw the line, in terms of forgiving autistic people for overstepping social bounds, and behaving inappropriately, on a forum that's supposed to be supportive of people with poor social instincts.

Of course its a satire. How come you know who gets away with this sort of post all the time? Once I told him off for posting that he happily ate 2 peoples worth of KFC despite his many health problems, and the mods told me that I just didn't get his situation. They told me he had many friends here, so why don't they move to Santa Cruz and tend him 24/7?

You do realise this thread is a personal attack , I think you should delete it and move on.

Like most of his posts aren't? OK then I'm DEMANDING to know why the mods have different rules for him.

I just re-read the forum rules... There's actually no rule about asking for in-person help. But there is a rule against discussing locked topics, so we'd better quit it here.

Well then he should have been banned a LONG time ago. Hey if they want to kick me out for stating what any blind fool can plainly see, great.

"WrongPlanet.net Discussion" might be a better place for this issue. Again, not disagreeing - forum rules have been broken by multiple people (including me) - and it can't be easy for the mods to decide when to take action.

Is this even approppiate? Would this fall under personal attacks?

I gotta admit this was funny.

Im in the middle of an angry meltdown right now, so I don't give a flying frack. NASS T violates forum rules and netiquette all the time and they give him a free pass. IM FKKING SICK OF IT. Hes a human bilge pump short and stout. There is no hope, he will die as he is, we all know that.

I'm breaking rules by even replying here, but... I hear you. Dozens of WP members have been frustrated by this issue over the years, and when a member is causing that level of distress to others, it's not right.
