Aren't you the one who said it was a good thing that kid drown trying to swim across a river?

I have blocked this  :tool: unfortunately I can still see quoted reply.

He is a total waste of space and after a shandy he gets a little mouthy.

Take my advice, and add to your ignore list.

Guess I was right about you being weak minded.  :laugh2:

Wish I could, but sometimes it's important to be able to see the bad advice being given in order to put the record straight.

He definitely seems to get off on making us devs feel bad for what we're doing but as I've said before, life is full of cases where people could have done more but didn't and as a result knowledge / culture etc. was lost.  We attempt to be impartial and pragmatic in our work and only if you take a very shallow view of what we do / say without actually understanding the project can you call it hypocritical.

No you cannot ignore me, as you are exactly in the same mindset.  You cannot suffer fools, and stupidity just makes you angry.  That is why I get creative with my complaints about the mamedevs, as there are so many dimensions where  their lack of ethics impact the industry.  MAME cannot hide behind popular public opinion, forever.  Some responsibility will have to be shouldered.  I'm glad you are no longer connected Haze, and still an outsider.

Got about 2-3 sentences in, skimmed it, threw up into my shirt. Haven't been back since.

Autism speaks, apparently, and I want it to shut up.

As the father of an Autistic child that is mostly non verbal that comment is highly offensive.

That is ban worthy in my opinion, it's sickening that immature people feel it's humorous to take jabs at the expense of the disabled.

This forum just reached an all time low for me.  :(

As cousin to someone that's autistic, I'm sorry that you found offense in my light-hearted jab at the previously mentioned redditor.

I understand the kind of effort and energy that goes into raising an autistic child, nevermind getting them into the realm of general acceptability in public.

However, this isn't a shot at you or your son, or anybody with an autistic kid. It's a shot at that redditor. Nobody else.

Your reaction however has been noted, and I'll be a little more careful in the future. My apologies.
