The rising 2017 - Discrimination

[Radicaledward124]

Ok ok ok here's the thing I have dyslexia and I did just fine with this. Please Please don't get your panties in a twist over a game, there are so many great people out there that will and do help others with things when they get stuck. But this is not discrimination dude, its a word puzzle that i for one have had to do since school, so unless you're planning on going on a raid against the education system please just enjoy the game. From you post it sounds like you don't even suffer with the disorder! Please stop being mad for us! I also don't appreciate you saying we can't do something because of the way our minds work. Man that's worse than SE putting a word puzzle in the game. Stop trying to be a social justice warrior and just play the game.

You have Dyslexia not the both, so you didn't have as much trouble as some.

You have Dyslexia not the both, so you didn't have as much trouble as some.

Actually I do deal with both regularly, I just don't complain about it. I put on my big girl undies and find a way to over come the problem.

Again issue - you were at a desk the whole time - the situation was not a real situation.

As for being at a desk, it was still very traumatizing, real or not.

You DO NOT get to tell me what does and doesn't trigger panic attacks, you DO NOT get to tell me that I can't do something because numbers and letters move around in my vision, nor do you get to tell me that other problems I deal with aren't as important. So again either take on all the problems or none at all. YOU DO NOT GET TO CHOOSE WHAT EFFECTS OTHERS, SOCIAL JUSTICE WARRIOR. Go big or go home.

I've been 100% color blind and I have a real hard time in the game. The adjustments they made for "colorblind" people doesn't work at all for me, because it focuses on people that have let's say a problem with reds/greens/oranges etc.

It doesn't do anything for people that see the whole world in black and white. But you don't see me run through the game/forum and actual in real life, demanding special rights, screaming the word discrimination 50 times a day etc.

I make the best out of that, I learned how to "see" the different shades of specific colors based on shading in a grey/white/black color wheel and what not. Not even going into the whole detail here, and while it wasn't easy, I don't attack or blame others for my situation.

Nor am I going and tell SE how disgusted I am with their game because most of it I can't see lol. Find a way around it as bad as your problem might be, and stop constantly trying to get some special rights.

That is what's disgusting, because people with all kind of disabilities at any time of the day are trying to make the best out of their situation and trying to live a "normal" life, a lot are very successful with that.

Something they can be proud off, you on the other hand sitting here and constantly wanting people to adjust to you (not the first thread/comment btw that pop'd up were you tried that already), that's just being extremely lazy and ridiculous. That's something we shouldn't be supporting.

Arguing whether this is bad or not for dyslexia is medical opinion. Not everyone relax with puzzles, even non-dyslexia can have stress. I think they did good with making it simple.
Since this is supposed to be a suggestion for change. What would you have numbers replaced with? Something that supposed to show things in order.

Your posts have more buzzwords than Monk has ppositionals

So the guy with sea phobia being afraid of game ocean isnt a real problem but you, a dyslexic person, not competing a puzzle in that very same game is a real problem?


If you want people to take your issue seriously please dont try to call THEIR situations/suggestions unreal or not serious...

You also were at your desk completing a single puzzle so by your own standards that was not a real situation. Just saying!

But this event treats everyone equally.
Everyone has to do the maze.
Everyone has to do the number letter riddle.
Everyone is treated the same.
Noone gets a special treatment we are all the same.

Equality is when noone gets special treatment.
If everyone gets a special treatment it would be equal to but only if everyone gets the same special treatment.

right here is my issue with this - there are systems in place for people with other disabilities such as sight disabilities hearing disabilities - there wasn't anything in place for people with the same type of disability as me - I am asking why and if they could be included in future - that's all. I havent said give people special treatment at all - i am asking that a system be put in place for this kind of disability like there is for a lot of other disabilities.

Okay, what do you suggest Square does about this issue without violating the integrity of the puzzle itself?
