we have more articles than them, and only about 4 percent of the membership.
A lot of that membership is dormant or people that were banned and came back under several different user names. Like Grevious/tyannus/general, etc. And the names were never deleted! Just like wp! Some of the people I know left permanently, but their names are still listed as members!
I'm a member but I'm pretty sure I've never actually posted there. They're too militantly Aspie for me.
Well, they have made an effort to tone down the "All NT's are evil" type crap! But, sometimes people just come on filled with so much rage and hate that things get everwhelming! LAst night in AFF chat, somebody cropped up complaining that Gareth and Amy were "suppressing" members "dismay" at injustice! Which I know is a pile of crap. What they have been trying to do is tone down the "Hate NT" rhetoric or lets treat NT's like they treat us rants. Yes, Amy and Gareth have their moments, but, it has modified over the years. Some people fail to realize that there is a difference between "Dismay" and "out of control rage" at injustice. Yeah, I'v had my moments!
But, returning hate for hate, rage for rage, just gives the Curebie groups ammo for their rhetoric, just like the "Oracles of the Delphi Forums". It's not the place for slagging, venting yes, to a point, but, not slagging!
Yeah, I think I saw your name there awhile ago, when the member list was still available for viewing! I do agree with you, that it was a bit too militant for my tastes, but, still I have loyalty to that site as they were the first site I joined when Edan pulled the rug out from Aspergia. And I have seen it grow and develop!
In a way I'm not overly surprised, a while ago Amy and Gareth publicly toyed with the idea of shutting down and asked members opinions about it.
aspieknee and zoologist, natron/simplecomplexities have all been off taking their shots at AFF from their own forums!
