  1. Enki, which rules forbid me from this: [19:14:55] <Platyna> Merfin I know you are stubborn, if you move the road 2 tiles you will gain like 20+ tiles of space for RR. A GM never ordered me to not speak with this person, on the contrary, she ordered me to talk with them. If ASD persons are not tolerated in game, can you make proper information on the registration page and refund me my expenses?
  2. I didn't wish this thread to be a ban discussion, I used this as an example of a communication error. Are we even allowed to discuss this issue on a public forum? I heard not, that's why I PM'd you my answer, including the quotes from GM. Badvoc, ASD is not an illness, is developmental disorder.
  3. I did not request any special treatment to abuse. I think clear, simple instructions would benefit everyone, not only ASD people, but for us they are not optional, they are required, if we were to understand and follow instructions correctly. I on't think ASD can be easily faked, we do communicate in certain, very distinctive way, and as far as I have been told, it is easy to spot by ASD aware people.
  4. Dear Administrators, time has changed, ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) people do not rot in insane asylums or stay hidden from the world in their homes. We are more and more able to participate in the community of neurotypical persons, Internet played a great role in this. We also play online games, and we have to overcome our difficulties in communication with "normal people", which is often very hard, and we also have our limits that we can't pass by, despite our great effort to understand and coexist with NTs. One of every 70 persons is a person with ASD. So my kind suggestion would be some training for the player management staff, especially GMs, how to deal with ASD people, especially when it comes to giving clear, non contradicting instructions. In a link below there are some hints. Please, we make a great effort to communicate with neurotypical people, please make some effort to make it easier for us, so we don't get in stressful and uncomfortable situations. Most important highlights are: If you don't want us to speak with X, tell us "do not speak with X", if you think we did something wrong tell us "You did [a particular, precisely defined activity or example] and it was wrong", if we try to explain to you the way we think and our rationale, do not interpret it as arguing, we had to spend considerable time of our lives to explain how we think and why we do certain things, that it became our second nature, and we pay a great attention to details, and we tend to repeat ourselves, this is something we have a little control of. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration, have a good day! https://www.mayinstitute.org/news/acl/asd-and-dd-adult-focused/tips-for-talking-to-adults-on-the-autism-spectrum/
  5. Hi, thank you for your work, I have a question, is there any version for Linux? I would like also report that if a program is run from a network drive it return an error - complains about being unable to find SQLite database.
