Account problem

Hi,

Hookaduckduck here. I have been off the forum for a couple of days but I've tried to log on with my usual account and I get taken to a page that suggests I have been banned? Unsure why this has happened but I haven't received any emails suggesting there has been a problem. 

Can anyone help me?

    Full names.  ASD people love forcing rules even when they're wrong, Robert.

  • I have been on this website five years. 

    I have seen the rules change and the way the moderators enforce these rules.

    And I have witnessed several big rows about the rules and people leaving this site because of the way they were treated here.

    I once received an email from a moderator warning me about using 'hate speech' .  My comment was only an innocent personal opinion.

  • Exactly, so why remove people from a forum with no warning, no information as to why, and cut off their likely only contact with other autistic people? 

    It doesn't feel like a good way to manage a forum of potentially very vulnerable people. 

  • - it's the internet - it's not real....

    To many people this is real!  And I'm not just talking about this site.  Cyber bullying does lead to mental health problems and suicide.

  • I've been here for a couple of years and I've seen some huge bust-ups too - it's totally normal on any forum - although I don't know why - it's the internet - it's not real....
