Autopia! My creation of an online autistic community!

Hi neurokin! 

Thanks so much for our discussion earlier about creating another online autistic community which is entirely autistic led! I have started to create an initial forum using Proboards (which was kindly suggested to me) with different topics.

Here is the link if you are interested:

Any feedback?

What do you think about the topics I have created?

Thank you!

Obviously I will continue to develop and work on it but I am just looking for initial thoughts.

  • It looks interesting, but the font is very small. As is the font for this reply! Had I forgotten that "feature" of this board as I have not been here for a while? I come back and find that it is all going to change Disappointed so a new board might be just as easy to learn as a new version of this one... Ho hum, don't we all *love* change?! (That was sarcasm!)

    Although it would be nice to lose the very annoying things about this board it looks like they are going to implement bad changes (deleting old threads) and I have very little confidence that any change is actually an improvement as experience has shown it is far more often a disimprovement...

    It's nice to see there are still people here I remember though!

  • Thanks for your feedback! Yes I agree that the font is very small, I will find out how to change it and increase the size.

    Yes I know sorry you are dissapointed, it might take some time to get used to it. There should be some improved features but I understand that some members including yourself are not looking forward to these changes as lots of useful information could be lost. Hopefully you may enjoy the Autopia forum when it becomes more user friendly.

    That's great!

    By the way at the top of the NAS website, there is an accessibilty button if you click on that you should be able to change the font size for this website.

    As a workaround it should be possible to increase the zoom on whatever browser people use. I find setting the Chrome page at 110%, or even 125%, makes the text much easier to read.

    I've figured out how to view the forum in recent posts mode, so you might want to add this link to the OP for anyone else who prefer this method.
