You remember you were going to impliment all kinds of things, Message which explained posts were deleted due to disablism, Emails to the posters, proactive buzzwords...

a year on what has been the result of this massive change in moderation?

Now i'm not suggesting this was a carrot, dangled to try and stop people leaving....
But we donkeys ARE getting a little tired of walking and woudl like to know what plans are there for the future to stop attacks.

Oo, maybe its caused by married parents - I think we're on to something here!! Quick, someone call the BMJ, we'll be millionaires 🙄

Sorry to buck the trend, I was conceived out of wedlock and ds was borne of non-married parents. Shall I just be the pesky data that's written off as an outlier?

You awkward bugger, polter Grin

I was married for my first, he's neurotypical. I wasn't married until well after my three Aspies were born!
I'm Aspie, my parents were married!

We will claim you were mistaken, a margin of error or a translation error caused your result.

Polter · 11/07/2017 19:44

Always awkward Grin

BishopBrennansArse · 11/07/2017 19:51

My first two were prior to marriage. Third after.

All autistic. Just like their mother (and father but he's not dx'ed)

Disillusionedone · 11/07/2017 19:53

Was born out of wedlock and am NT.

Dd was born within marriage and is pretty far along spectrum.

finallythroughtheroof · 11/07/2017 19:54

Which means I am not great at knowing how DD is thinking, poor kid

Disillusionedone · 11/07/2017 19:55

Oops sorry. Will go and change to the name am using on this thread. Am tired and confused

Dawndonnaagain · 11/07/2017 19:56

Well, the non marriage theory is out of the running then! Grin

I haven't read whole thread and missed whatever thread this is based on.

My suggestion is that when a poster types something blatantly disablist the message reads post deletes for being disablist.

Therefore they are named and shamed.

Disillusionedone · 11/07/2017 19:58

I hate having to namechange tbh. Was happy with name i had for 10 years until all the targetting.

BeyondDrinksAndKnowsThings · 11/07/2017 20:00

My 'favourite' link is the one between AD use in pregnancy with autism. Because an undiagnosed mother will often need...?
Idiots.

Yup dD was bf. As was I.

youarenotkiddingme · 11/07/2017 20:17

Ds was also born out of wedlock - and is autistic.

I was born in wedlock and am NT (well I think I am!)

Ds half uncle born in wedlock and autistic and his father born in wedlock and I'm convinced he has asd too!

BeyondDrinksAndKnowsThings · 11/07/2017 20:22

I and my DSs were bf too.
Not having much luck with these theories!! Grin
