I personally feel it is unreasonable to expect a group of strangers to put up with one mistakes because of outside factors. Sure it sucks, but by no means should it be the norm to base poor play on the assumption of a disability. I get that is not what the OP is asking for but it still annoys me personally when people try to use their disability as an excuse everyone simply must accept. No person or disability is entitled to special treatment in my opinion, it is nice when it oucers, and one could argue it is the right thing to do. Does not mean we should expect it, and the end of the day each role has a responsibility and in group play no matter the reason not pulling your own weight based around the groups standards is never okay even if the reason is out of your control. Strangers are not friends or family they have no obligation to cater to a person becsuse of a disability or preference.
Disagree. My friend does not have autism, she is physically disabled due to a degenerative disease. Sometimes it's just the two of us so I tank for her. At the start I have a macro to warn the two dps that the dungeon may take a bit longer because due to her disability she can't heal large wall to wall pulls. I don't do this because I expect special treatment, I do it so the DPS can make the decision to stay or leave the dungeon. I've never had anyone leave, in fact most of them are quite content to accommodate. And there is absolutely *nothing* wrong with this.
