Communication problems

How do we ask a question of the moderators, privately?

I was recently critisised for something I posted, which I thought was perfectly reasonable, showing understanding, sympathy and making a suggestion for future action. I asked for an explanation of where I had gone wrong, via feedback. I have received no reply.

According to the NAS website, autism "affects how a person communicates".

If there is doubt about the content of a post, then perhaps a moderator should not just critisise the one who posts, but explain to/remind the recipient that sometimes the message may not be worded in the most tactful way, by NT standards. The intention of the post, might be kinder than it appears at first reading.

In other words, perhaps NT users need reminding that autistic users don't always communicate as well as NT people. We are sometimes misunderstood.

    Marjorie,

    You didn't say anything wrong, the moderators made a mistake in naming you in my opinion and I let them know that through the 'Feedback to NAS' form.

    There is a mailbox at community.manager@nas.org.uk where you should be able to get a response to your question.

    I'm sorry for the bother that you have been caused - I was short tempered and made some harsh remarks and you were the innocent bystander. :-)
