As it was a self-diagnosis, I'm not entirely sure on how AS affects other people. Had I been DX'd by a doctor, I would have probably asked if it affected other people different ways.

Child of the pride, I dont think you are a friggin idiot.
If Neph was upset by this which she clearly states, I agree with her making this thread since there isnt much else she can do.
Let say I would PM someone and keep going joke or not until he/she was upset about it.
Sure he/she can put me on ignore but that wouldn't not change the fact that I would still be around even if that person doesnt see me.
Now when Neph made this thread, she made it so we could see what had happened so we would know about it.
So we could judge Phantom and see what he had to say.
Lets say this was a class and it was real persons and someone was being harrassed wouldnt you want to know about it so you could see if it was just a joke (a strange one at that) or that we have someone among us who harasses people. I for one would like to know that.
I usually only make sence to myself but hey if you understood what I meant good for you.
I gotcha.
Maybe I overreacted a bit, I tend to do that sometimes. I guess I just get mad when I think people are jumping down someone's throat.
And that frigging idiot thing was just an exaggeration. :cool:
hehe, of course it was COTP *pets COTP* jk :p
@ IchLiebeNALA: we do know now you also have a forum ;) Don't need to advertise it so many times.
(I don't wanna sound rude or anything)
hehe, it's fine Nathalie. you didnt sound rude
Sorry for my reactions, but I'm gettig sick of this thread. This is not good for anyone even Neph or Phantom. Harasment is a crime, but we have't be sure it's reall harassment and we don't know how much is Neph injured. Actualy she's seems to be like a person who doesn't care much about how feel others, but I don't know. I will not judge her, I don't know her. And that's the point. Anyway, Phantom say his sorry and it's most important. We don't know nothing about what really happened and that's why we cannot judge. That what Phantom wrote in PM was bad joke, you all are right but this kind of topic can force him to make suicide or something if he's mentaly weak somehow. Is it really what you like? Is it?? Oh men, let's go stop to play about liberty, nor George Bush who allow throw bombs to civilians in name of blind liberty. Jeezz!

I find this kinda funny. By your logic, it's okay for me to go down to the street and rape a child. It's okay, I'm not pervereted; I'm just joking around. Somehow I think not. ^^
For example, you're friends with Suki. Afasik, she's had problems with people being mean to her IRL. I'm sure they do/did it as a joke and to be funny, but does that really make it okay?
Whether or not he has that disorder, that's still not a good excuse for his behaviour.Quote:

Now that is a really horrible thing to say...Quote:

I agree with a few posters that perhaps this wasn't the appropriate first step for Nephilim to make in dealing with this problem. I have no idea if she contacted any of the moderators before posting this thread; I would always recommend that prior to posting a private matter publicly.
However, given that our attempts to get PhantomBPR to use more discretion on this forum have been only partially successful, I would have supported her posting this thread as a last resort.
Now that the thread is here, though, let's stick to the facts. Nephilim received some PM's which she felt to be inappropriate. It's obvious that she's mad about it. I don't understand how people can call her insensitive and mean it. It's her very sensitivity that led her to create this thread in the first place. I'm sure she doesn't want this happening to anyone else, so she chose to take the most direct route. Maybe she could have chosen a more private route first, but what's done is done. Let's focus on the intent of her message, not the words.
I'm not even sure what you're trying to say here, but it has no place in the current conversation and strikes me as insensitive considering it's the day after the US' Independance Day (4th July).Quote:

Not only that, but word filters only stop the word being shown, they don't take the word out completely. So the reader still knows what they intended to say.Quote:

If we wanted to impliment any disciplinary action for inappropriate PM's, I think disallowing the individual offending member from using the PM service would be adequate, after a certain amount of times being reported.
Okay, maybe I didn't get the point across half as well. I tend to be a bit unclear sometimes.Quote:

As long as they don't act on it, it's fine with me.
And in the case of Suki, well, that's not exactly the topic posted in the thread, so I won't discuss it.
Nope. It isn't so hard. At least for me. :) Word filter can do more .. it can deny send message if it include more than one or two of bad words .. it can event test sample sestences etc. Even, you can implement ignore list which is the best solution IMHO.Quote:

One of programmer motto says that "enemy of programmer is user". But there are many good ways how to force users use serveices responsible. Validators and access rules .. that's are most powerfull tools for programmers. :)
I agree with Woes that your comment was quite offensive and has no place in the current topic at all. Back off of America bub ;)Quote:

i personally think that this thread is getting totally out of hand now. it has totally diverted off the original topic and has turned into a slanging match against america (no offence Lweek)
That's my judge .. on first look. Is it sound horrible? Now you know how Phantom could feel.Quote:

To all:
I'm going to leave this topic because I feel I'm going be too much engaged and I wont. Sorry for I wrote. Enjoy 4th, Independance day and please don't vote Bush again. :)
EDIT: typos
yeah but unlike you Neph wasn't saying from a first view she had experience on him.
Have you ever spoken to Neph then maybe you will actually know she does care.
He also said this, after that other thing he said.Quote:

I'm personally VERY tired of this thread.
Obviously we all think in our ways and are not coming anywhere with this. What's the use of lettin' this get off topic as everything else? (ooh sorry.. really)
The best way to solve this problem would be for Phantom to realise that he's made a big mistake and tell Neph he's done wrong and make an apology. (If he don't already have). I mean it's a big mistake too harass someone. Then I hope Phantom can stop with these sexual crimes. It's REALLY not funny.
And some kind of disorder is NO excuse to harass someone.
This is a big mistake of Phantom. I think you should try to realise what you have done and STOP doing it. It's NOT funny.
ah god I'm getting fed up of this thred so I'm gonna stay out of it from now on
