There are much better places to seek help than an MMO's forum. How does this pertain to FFXIV at all?

I'm kind of questioning the intent behind the thread, since information on the matter isn't hard to find if you even try to look.

It's come up quite a bit in the FFXIV community. It's amazing that you haven't noticed it yet.

I feel like it does matter when it comes to community building. To have positive and constructive discussions on such things. The problem with your solution, is that it actively discourages interactive learning. If I want to learn more about autism--the BEST way to do it is to engage in conversations with people who have autism. Reading a wiki page or a support group isn't going to give me the answers I'm looking for. Especially if I get confused and have questions. A word document isn't an interactive source of learning.

But I also think that's a bigger problem with mental-illness. For those who don't have it--to be patronized for trying to understand just seems to undermine the whole concept. If people like you are going to criticize people like me when I try to learn about mental-illness--then why try? I could just keep doing things my way. As if it matters to my life whether I learn how to handle people are different. But you know what? I'm trying, because I care. And you shouldn't be negative about that.

Because it's the General forum

Like, really, really, general forum


I'm pretty sure I could start a thread about Dora the Explorer and as long as people kept posting in it, it'd remain on the first page.

This is probably the first game forum I've been in that is actually moderated in such a strange fashion.

I think the english mods gave up.

Well we at some point had "share your disability" thread and "I have mental disorder and ppl kicks me out of group content" thread on the first page at the same time.
So for some players it's a an important matter.
