Is the moderation more light-touch here than on other Aspie boards?

I knew this and yet still continued to forget as I typed my last message...idiot

OK.
Now, if you get a little picture of a guy
bowing, in response to me curtsying,
I think we'll have it all taken care of.

As compared to what?

Compared to the only other Aspie forum I have experience with, AC is more moderated. And that isn't necessarily bad. Its just the answer is relative to ones own personnal experience.

I will add, if you have had problems on multiple previous Aspie forums, there is no reason to expect a different outcome here.

I am from Sheffield yes.

I speak in a very strong local dialect.

I just checked YouTube to hear a Sheffield accent. It is very nice. I think I like it best.

We try to be a bit more on the light side here, however it doesn't mean everything goes and we wont ban anyone.

There are a few topics we pretty much don't allow per rules, one of the being religion (the other one being politics that are not related to autism specifically), as these topics require a lot of moderation and people will most likely get offended in said threads. It's one of the ways we try to keep a friendly atmosphere here.

I used to see religion brought up quite a lot here. I was bothered. There is a person I still don't like reading or responding to because I remember how much they talked about their religion. I do not mean offense to anyone, I don't want anyone to feel bad because of what I just said, it's just what happened to me when I read all those posts. I agree that any topic here should be fine if it relates to autism. I will read the rules as linked to and see what I can learn.

Just a reminder, if you have a specific complaint about a moderator and/or their actions then please take it up privately with staff.

Understood.

Religion is allowed depending on how it's talked about. Religious debates are frowned upon, as is criticism of religions or of irreligiosity. But it's fine to state "I'm this religion" or "I was in Church this morning" or "I'm not religious" as long as it doesn't turn into arguments/debates/criticisms, etc.
