| Hmm, while I totally agree with the whole "The Doctor is an alien, so we can't assign him Human traits" thing when it comes to AS...here's an interesting thing about the Doctor. By his own species' definition, he was not NT. I wouldn't call him AS, because he's not human. But he was something like t... |

| I think some people are missing the point between people who are self-diagnosing and those who just say they have it for some lame excuse in the moment (an excuse that changes continuously, given what is 'in' at the moment...) I have no problem with self-diagnosis. If I had even known this existed b... |

| It goes in cycles. I've seen Dyslexia, ADHD/ADD, Asperger's. I've even seen Depression used as an excuse. It usually cycles through which one is 'coolest' to have at the time. Which is rather stupid, since none of them are cool to have. On forums liek this, I don't usually bother trying to fix my po... |

| No one needs to be harsh or rude at all. I just think soem people think that the harsher it is, th more likely it is that they may understand. I was told that Autism and AS were learning disabilities, not just social. I can't do math. I suck terribly atit. And while my spelling may be good, it's not... |

| I have noticed some outright NT people posting and find it rather weird. I find it hard to talk to people on NT sites and yet this site is fine which is why I cant understand why they want to socialize on here !? If you think you might be or are looking for information thats one thing but...... may... |

| It can be the reason why they may have bad spelling/grammar/writing, But that doesn't mean that they shouldn't run what they wrote through a spell check at the very least before posting. It's even on the rules in most writing sites to do so. When I said I never associated bad spelling/grammar to AS,... |

| Or so they think... Either way, no one likes to hear it, and so it is best to not say anything at all about having it. People may start to think you're using it as an excuse for bad writing... I say if my writing is bad, then it is because I'm a bad writer. It won't get me to stop, because I enjoy d... |

| I never associated bad spelling and grammar with AS, if anything I feel a compulsive need to make sure everything is correct before I hit submit. I'm not saying that compulsive need is necessarily a trait of AS either, except the desire for precision, perhaps. It has nothing at all to having AS. It... |

| there are many contenders to the "throne". it is a niche fad nowadays to be "aspie" it seems, and there are so many weeds that have "evolved deliberately" to camouflage themselves in the field of autism. It's an excuse used by some fanfiction writers who are too lazy to use spell check and/or gramm... |

| I am diagnosed by professionals. When I was diagnosed, I hadn't even heard of Asperger's. They called it high functioning Autism then, and it wasn't until my personal psychologist I was reffered to told me that it was Asperger's that I got the diagnosis with a name. There was no chance I would be us... |

In fact, when it changed owners and got less people, it was a worse place and we all just stopped going. It was a ... |

Rune Factory: A Fantasy Harvest Moon on Nintendo DS
and
Sacred 2: Fallen Angel for computer.
My all time favourite game though is Morrowind (computer version) and probably always will be. |
