List of what is currently wrong with the forum

Deleted User

I was wondering if most people who contribute here are fine with no current problems, so I thought a list might be useful.

I'm rather despairing at the moment of its brokenness and absence of communication from NAS about a timescale (or anything) for sorting these.

It's making me wonder whether to bother any longer.

1. I know that   has a message coming up in orange at the top saying his account may/will be deleted.

2. I keep being logged out (orange banner at the top with a seconds countdown).

Is anyone else getting anything still (or even unable to use their original account?).

Has anything been sorted?

Thanks.

    Especially at this time of year, which so many people find difficult.

    Couldn’t agree more. I feel that there should be much, much better team support over this period, if this over-zealous filter is going to remain in effect - just like there is for many important helplines.

    This what the NAS says about suicide:

    "Why might you feel suicidal?

    Reasons for suicidal thoughts vary and some people may not know why they feel suicidal. The most common reasons affect both autistic and non-autistic people, but autistic people may be more likely to experience them, such as:

    • existing mental health issues
    • trauma or stressful experiences ( relationship/financial/work worries)
    • loneliness / social isolation."

    At this time of year, those issues can be significantly heightened - and this forum can be an important source of companionship and moral support. But not when we're locked out from posting, or there’s an ongoing and unreasonable risk of that happening.
