Hi, I am a newbie here. I am a young aspie who still meets the basic entry requirements, if you want to know anything else, ask!
-
are you a male or a female?
-
lol, Balders.
hi hadron, and welcome. better get used to the relentless pursuit if you're female. er, possibly even if you're male. ::)

Hmm, you strike me as someone who would more likely grovel to get them to do it ;)
Oh and Lucifer, did you cut his meat off when he asked impolitely, is that why he focusses on the vice grips?

Whats that +1 thing, is it some kind of rep system?

See something called "karma" below people's avatars, with the Yay and Ghey links? you have those links below your... post count, too, visible for other members, and if someone likes what you said or did, they'll yay you, that is, :plus: you. And if they really didn't, they might ghey you instead (-1, that is, no cool emoticon for that).
If you decide that the karma system is emo or crappy or not worth your time or patience, you can ask an admin to freeze the number at 0.

Ok, I get you :plus:
Is there any limits on who you can add karma too / how often?
-
Also, if you die while your karma is low, you come back as a ginseng root and get eaten by Flo.
-
Do you consider yourself the sensitive type of person?

Not really, it depends what you mean by sensitive. Is that question some kind of initiation rite?

I only know that it refers to a subatomic particle, but I'm not an educated man.
It is much more likely that someone would choose "Hardon" for a name than "hadron" around here.
-
I didn't even notice that it could be rearranged to hardon until someone pointed it out.
But then I'm pathologically asexual. :P

Hmm, ive kind of got a slightly better idea of the membership now, but when I was starting I thought id go for something dull and boring.

Ive never heard of dark throne, and wouldnt that imply that im some kinda underling of yours >:D

Well, to be honest I'm not pathological about it, but I really am not a big fan of sex at the moment. And I'm somewhat androgynous.
-
worry about them all.
if they aren't sucking your cock, then they will be vise gripping your balls.
is your name, hadron, a play on words, supposed to mean hardon?
I misread his name as hardon at first.
You, too?
Did anyone actually manage to read my name correctly?
I did. Hi Hadron. Welcome to Intensity.
Are you excited by the Large Hadron Collider (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_Hadron_Collider) that is being constructed in Swizerland near Geneva?

Hi Callaway, thanks for the welcome :)
That hadron collider is fun, im a bit annoyed they have delayed its launch by a few months though :(

Welcome Hadron to Intensity.

i do, and read your name correctly.
funny how all three of us who've managed to get it right are female, isn't it?
::)
-
Hmm, androgonous... Have you always been indecisive about your gender?
Technically I'm pretty darn sure I'm female (only got to look down) but I find the whole concept of gender to be an annoying limitation and a social construct.
-

It's pretty easy to do here. Go to this page and select it, link it, or upload it. It can't be too big or it won't upload.

Hmm, I just had a look at wikipedia, and it says this guy called William Freund went on a spree after announcing his plans on WP. Can you tell me a little more about it?
-
He posted a bunch of incoherent babble on WP, people tried to engage with him but it didn't do a lot of good. When he said he was going to kill himself and take people down with him people just assumed he was full of shit, since it was typical of the emo bullshit some members spout without ever being likely to go postal. Then he did it.
It highlighted a couple of things; firstly, online support sites are no substitute for proper offline mental health support, and no venue for counselling the disturbed; and secondly, that Alex Plank is an opportunistic, glory seeking wanker. He used the death to bring publicity, advertising revenue, and hordes of new members to the site. I was a moderator at the time, and he asked me what I thought - I told him my advice would be to cooperate with the cops but stay away from the media since gaggles of folk come to WP to gawk at the retards, and an influx of new members, woudn't be good for the community. He responded by leaping into a media circus, holding interviews on tv, etc. I stepped down from the staff in disgust, and left WP as a regular poster afterwards.

OK, so this Alex Plank runs WP and happens be a media whore now. Are this Freund guys posts still around on there or have they been deleted / shifted to another forum.
-
As far as I know they're still there, but moved to a forum not viewable by members.

I am just intregied in way. I want to know what makes an aspie crack like that, and also because I dont understand why someone would do it at all.
-
no-one knows the reason. if there'd been anything that easy to spot, we'd have spotted it.
as for understanding, i suppose none of us does - ToM, and all that.

Hmm, it is sad that he felt he had to go and do all that. If you could nab them you could probably apply them as an extreme form of advocasy, if you drop something like that on someones desk you could shock them into action. Was this guy a straight aspie or did he have something else that could explain it?
-
i don't think shock tactics like that work, very much of the time. you have to go where people are, not where you think they ought to be. trust me on this - that's why i'm able to get things done, cos i use this principle all the time, when the shouty people fail.

Shock tactics work with the right people, and the right scenarios. Obviously you wouldnt use them in a speech something like that, it would promote the wrong image, but if you did it one on one with someone they can be quite effective. Also if you show it one and one, your conversation is deniable, so if it backfires it is a matter of "what conversation..."

sigh. hadron, no offence, but you're talking to someone who's been doing for almomst twice as long as you've been alive. please credit me with a little intelligence, experience, and discernment. and integrity, when it comes to the last point you mentioned.

I am just suggesting strategy as a cunning bastard myself (i did survive state school for 11 years more or less intact as an aspie). I dont doubt your intelligence and experience at all, but integrity can be a fickle thing. As for most of the people who ended up ranking above you in our wonderful social stucture (and the ones you have to persuade), do you think they got there on merit, or largely via backstabbing. All I am suggesting is you beat them at their own game?

it's really sad to see your view is so jaundiced, already, hadron. the world isn't always like that - there really are people out there who believe in what they do, and who care about other people. not the most common species, admittedly, but your attitude of "fuck them before they fuck me" won't get you that far, in the long run.
i think i'll finish my input there.

i don't think shock tactics like that work, very much of the time. you have to go where people are, not where you think they ought to be. trust me on this - that's why i'm able to get things done, cos i use this principle all the time, when the shouty people fail.
Shock tactics work with the right people, and the right scenarios. Obviously you wouldnt use them in a speech something like that, it would promote the wrong image, but if you did it one on one with someone they can be quite effective. Also if you show it one and one, your conversation is deniable, so if it backfires it is a matter of "what conversation..."
sigh. hadron, no offence, but you're talking to someone who's been doing for almomst twice as long as you've been alive. please credit me with a little intelligence, experience, and discernment. and integrity, when it comes to the last point you mentioned.
I am just suggesting strategy as a cunning bastard myself (i did survive state school for 11 years more or less intact as an aspie). I dont doubt your intelligence and experience at all, but integrity can be a fickle thing.

I wouldnt say my view is so "jaundiced". True their are people who believe in what they are doing, but they dont tend to end up high up positions very frequently. People in those sort of positions are often there because they want power and get a kick out of being in control of other people. As for the "fuck them before the fuck me", do you think i fuck them to their face? As for you finishing your input, for a forum that thrives on combative debate you seem to be running way prematurely!

it's not a debate. it's you sticking your fingers in your ears and not listening. pointless.

I wouldnt say that, I listened or read what you said and responded to it. I assume you have run out of arguement and that is why you are giving up.

we'll have to agree to differ, then.
assume what you want - if you need that point so badly, have it. i don't.

Fine if that is the way you want it, but if you are going to make an arguement against a position I stand for, then i would prefer it if you backed it up. I dont object to you disagreeing with me however, as long as you can follow it through.

As far as I know they're still there, but moved to a forum not viewable by members.
So if someone were a mod there then they could nab them. Is there an intensity member that is a mod on WP?
Yes, and such posts are not available to us.
You'd have to ask Alex, I believe.

What did i do to deserve a red flag?
The particular nature of your line
of questioning is highly suspicious.

Nice. Sneaky little shit.

It's not running, when it's before something
so blatantly worthless.

:plus: (at least one)
Dunc - I've been wanting to ask
for bits of your WP story, but I
got the feeling that you didn't want
to go over it all.

If you told him you were a movie producer would he give it to you?

It depends on your perspective.

I can only speculate, but I suspect
he'd think that I was lying, in such a
case, and up to no good.

Fair enough. Suspicious to me.

Yes, but I am not planning on trying that little experiment...
