Hey PK...if you leave...can I have your stuff? 
But seriously, stay. Stay because your SG is awesome even if you don't hang out with us enough.
City of Heroes taught me that when the world is burning, you don't just stand by and watch, you grab a fire extinguisher and do whatever you can to stop it-even if it's not much at all. Sign the petition to keep City of Heroes alive HERE.

Coming from a person who doesn't know you and only knows of you, i could care less. However i will say there is a time to be stupid and there is a time to act your age instead of like a small child who knows "bad" words. Most people don't like attention whores so you keep yourself in check I'm sure those "haters" will slowly go away and really find out who you are as a person instead of seeing all the dumb things being said. Anyway thats my two cents, good luck in your decision.

Let me expand on this a little bit.
If your behavior is causing agitation from the very people you are attempting to interact with, and said behavior is not an act, but you just being you. Then either something is wrong with you, or you are wrong for them.
So, in conclusion, if you're irritating people, and you care about their opinions, then you do one of two things:
1. figure out what you're doing to irritate people and stop doing it
2. don't "hang out" with them
I recommend #1, because you should learn something useful about yourself in the process and hopefully improve yourself.
"Goodbye, Jean-Luc. I'm gonna miss you... you had such potential. But then again, all good things must come to an end..." -- Q
Very logical, but #1 isn't going to happen. I know what's irritating people and it's my natural personality. That's not changing. I went through enough of that in my young life. I'm not changing for anyone anymore. Thus the poll. If people don't want me to play in their sandbox, I'll take my toys and go home.

I'm getting a bit of anger and irritation directed at me from various sources on the server, just from me being me. So, I'll just put it to a vote and let you guys decide whether you want me around or not.
Should I stay?
Or should I go?
[/ QUOTE ]
Seriously? You'd pack up and go for this? If you're that weak willed, then maybe you should go.

I did not fully realize who you actually are, so I feel I need to clarify my original comment.
There's a song in here somewhere...
Anyhow.
1: Do you pay your 15 bucks a month?
2: Outside of this little bit of "drama", are you having FUN on this server?
If the answer to both of these is "yes", I can sum this up in two sentences.
To hell with them. Play your own game.

I could not care less about this whole silly thread, but I simply want to interject that people who cannot learn to get along with others tend to not go very far in life... It's a pretty important "life skill" to have.

Unfortunately for me, it's actually a "condition" that I have so needless to say, sometimes just asking outright is the best way to go.

For example a person with AS may engage in a one-sided, long-winded speech about a favorite topic, while misunderstanding or not recognizing the listener's feelings or reactions, such as a need for privacy or haste to leave.[5] This social awkwardness has been called "active but odd".[1] This failure to react appropriately to social interaction may appear as disregard for other people's feelings, and may come across as insensitive.

AFter having been around you for a while, I have no doubts about you having Aspergers, I also think you hide behind it sometimes and use it as an excuse to say assanine and hateful things. Because I HAVE seen you stop and think about some things you say. Mostly, I think you just don't care how what you say affects people anymore. Which is awful close to just being an [censored].
However, to ask this question here alone was silly, because the few threads I've followed of yours on other forums, you seem to "get the hate" there as well. Which tells us, it's not just a few people here. To ask this question here AT ALL was wholly inappropriate. Which you seem to have a knack for.
Leave, stay, I couldn't care less. The ignore button works really well and I'm going back to using it. Life's too short to put up with [censored].

Yeah, it is..... half of forumites and chat room people do it. Guess most people on the internet have Aspergers.
EDIT: I'd also like to note, you only seem to pull this out when people call you on inappropriate or assanine behavior.

Asinine, definitely. Hateful? How can you say hateful things when you don't hate anyone?

You might be surprised. I've heard of studies that show that there is a LARGE quantity of people who either knowingly or unknowingly have the condition that spend their time online because it's more conducive to social interactions. Because we have to deal with much less of the "nonverbal communication" that they don't understand. Makes sense to me.
ok.... Time for the Docs 2 pennies....
First, PK, you have never gotten on my nerves, whether that be in game or on the forums or anywhere else we have talked.
Second, I have never seen you be offensive, in any place other then the one place that all protectorites should expect to be offended that being "Jello Shooters" Honestly the MOTD on the channel says what it says for a reason.
Third, Yes it is possible that I missed what happened that started all this, but I hope that people can be an adult about everything and live and let lie.
Fourth, I enjoy your company and I hope you decide to stay on protector.
Fifth, weather or not you do or do not have Aspergers doesn't matter.
Sixth, What we all have to remember is that arguing on the internet is one of the best ways to show your intelligence level, and I do have a picture here to show everyone concerning that but more then likely most of you have already seen it or heard the phrase. If you haven't then I will post it up, but keep in mind it is offensive.
As far as I can tell, this guy spends an inordinate amount of time in online communities and eventually pisses people off with his relentless "attention-[censored]." He appeared to get a clue around last Christmas, when he posted his long goodbye post describing his internet problems.
But nope, he came back and situated himself on Protector. Now he's asking the disinterested forum community at large if he should stay, so that he can tell the naysayers to S T F U.
Some comments on Asperger's:
1. It's not an excuse to be an [censored].
2. People with the condition will often use it to manipulate other people to get sympathy, attention, etc.
3. It's true that Aspies seek interaction online, because they don't have to deal with all the nonverbal, social context stuff.
That's not a good thing. Online interaction is exactly what they don't need. It actually reinforces bad behavioral patterns and if things start to go south with people, as in this case, they just hop in to another community and repeat the same cycle.
If anyone either 1. can't stand this guy or 2. actually cares about his social development they should vote that he leaves the server, leaves the game, turns the computer off, shoves the cats off his lap, and drags his lazy [censored] out into the real world for some actual social interaction.

Well, I broke my oath of not joining any more drama, but I'd like to say...
Although I have small feelings toward whether you should stay or you should go (but I personally would stay), I'd like to agree with wolfie about one thing.
If you continue to "hide" behind AS then you are literally holding yourself back. If you believe that you can be better than AS or overcome it, then you easily can, as long as you believe. Don't ever blame a "condition" you have (and I'm glad you put that in quotes), blame yourself. As Major T said, you should better yourself and improve yourself. In response to that you simply said that it's not going to happen. Well, if you say that and don't believe it then OF COURSE it's not going to happen.
Cheers,

Jello Shooters is a public channel that was set up for everyone to use. Being offensive and then hiding behind the MOTD is as stupid as him doing the same thing and hiding behind his Aspergers.

So.. it doesn't really matter what Protector votes, now does it?
[/ QUOTE ]
It does because I decided it does. I decided to accept whatever the outcome is. So yes, it is my decision. My decision to follow through with what I say I'm going to do, that's called integrity. So if more people stand by their opinion like wolfie up there and their votes are more than the people that want me to stay, then I'll be gone.
It's all about integrity. I admire wolfie for her integrity, and I show my integrity by accepting the results of the "poll".
