some posters have a terminal case of uncorrectable edginess, they are just so out there and not easily constrained within the narrow confines of this pc nonsense etc....

there are many legitimate complaints to make against sarahell but i don't think that's among them.
― Roberto Spiralli, Thursday, 2 November 2017 14:59 (six years ago) link
She does have history of thinking the R-word is big + clever, I've f'ped her a few times.
― calzino, Thursday, 2 November 2017 15:07 (six years ago) link
There are no legitimate complaints against sarahell. We shouldn’t chase away our few remaining distinctive posters.
― Treeship, Thursday, 2 November 2017 15:09 (six years ago) link
sarahell is a great poster and ilx wouldnt be the same without her but that was a dumb post imo
― marcos, Thursday, 2 November 2017 15:12 (six years ago) link
srsly. if you guys get rid of sarahell i'm out of here. losing nakh wasn't enough???
― Mordy, Thursday, 2 November 2017 15:12 (six years ago) link
there are legitimate complaints about every poster
― Roberto Spiralli, Thursday, 2 November 2017 15:13 (six years ago) link
exactly, nobody is getting chased anywhere. People can exercise their moaning /fp privileges without folk screaming "witch hunt!".
― calzino, Thursday, 2 November 2017 15:16 (six years ago) link
if the complaints are legitimate, ilx has ways to try and shut that whole situation down iirc

No legit complaints about me, iirc? I'm perfect.
Perfect.

Yeah, completely agreed on this. Not gonna FP sarahell as she's generally awesome, but this is very much not okay.

― flopson, Thursday, 2 November 2017 17:13 (six years ago) link
seriously though, what would have been a non-bullshit way to summarize and refer to complaints about said behavior? I honestly didn't intend that to be an "edgy" word choice
― sarahell, Thursday, 2 November 2017 17:48 (six years ago) link
autism is a real thing and using it as a zing against ppl whose content or posting style you dislike is offensive. i also FP any reference to asperger's done in this way, for the same reason. thankfully i feel like, as with the r-word, they've been on the decline around these parts. good poster, bad post.
― Doctor Casino, Thursday, 2 November 2017 18:13 (six years ago) link
No, I was using it to describe content and posting styles that resemble behavior of someone on the Autism Spectrum. No like/dislike involved. Just descriptive.

I'm apologizing because I can see now how it could easily be interpreted as a pejorative, zingy post ... even though I didn't intend it as a pejorative, just as a description
― sarahell, Thursday, 2 November 2017 18:25 (six years ago) link
For me, I don't think of obsessive, list-making behaviour as stereotypically "autistic" - particularly as understanding of the spectrum (and gender differences within it) has developed, it doesn't ring true, and seems reductive to the point of offensiveness. Putting it on a thread like this definitely makes it read as a zingy put-down, but even if it were somewhere else I'd still feel very uneasy about it.
― emil.y, Thursday, 2 November 2017 18:30 (six years ago) link
Also the dual edge of pathologising personality traits/diminishing difficulties that people with disorders actually have to live with. It's just... not good.

it has historically been stereotyped this way on ilx. that's what I was referring to.
