Banned From WP For No Reason-- A Collection of Issues Brought Up By Members

[Phlexor]

I find it made mine worse, and drugs actually fucked me up long term

I've seen that happen, it's not for everyone, but I don't judge.

I think John Lennon said Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, was no reference to LSD.  Oh and doing drugs isn't really that cool, but I guess it is in rock and roll terms 

Here is an article about Julian Lennons childhood friend the song was named for.

Thanks for finding that article, PPK.

[P7PSP]

You're welcome Callaway. I recalled it being posted because my older cousin was a Beatles fan that had some of the not released in America 45s and albums. They were a pretty good group. This is one of their songs that I have always liked.

Cool, cool 

Yeah, I like all of the White Album.

PPK: 

You're a champion. That's one of the Beatles' tracks that I drum to regularly. The story behind that one is is that when they went to Rishikesh to see the Maharishi, Prudence Farrow (Mia's sister) wouldn't come out of her tent. So John decided to write Dear Prudence in an effort to get her to 'come out and play'. They later used it on the White Album.

BTW, it was covered by an Australian artist named Doug Parkinson not 6 months after the realease by the Beatles and went to top 10 in Australia.

Thanks for that trivia TCO. You sound like my cousin in that post, he is a total Beatles geek. What I like about that song is that it is a happy song like Johnny Nash singing Bright, Sunshiney Day.  back at ya for geek knowledge! 

[The_Chosen_One]

After I saw the post, I went off and played 'Good Day Sunshine', 'Dear Prudence', 'Yer Blues', 'Long Long Long' and 'Revvolution 1'.

I've still got a fair way to go, but I've been told I'm good for only palying since January.

[The_Chosen_One]

Jesus Richard, did you get stuck in traffic again?

[Leto729]

Why get banned at all?

It just another Asperger's Site.

In the end.

It's the same problem I had with the majority of the AS groups on MySpace, anti-social behavior is not tolerated by moderators.  Even in a forum designed for people with Asperger's Syndrome, anti-social behavior is not tolerated.  Basically, you're free to be an Aspie who joins an Aspie forum as long as you don't behave like a typical aspie you should be fine.

WP is unsalvageable. It has been taken over by the (incorrectly) self-diagnosed whiners, and the mods do all they can to protect them from anyone who questions them.

This is all that needs to be said about Wank Planet. The place is beyond hope.

WP is unsalvageable. It has been taken over by the (incorrectly) self-diagnosed whiners, and the mods do all they can to protect them from anyone who questions them.

Hence the reason I gave up on WP.  I remember being 12 years old, missing multiple days from school to ride into the city with my parents so I could go through extensive testing by a neurologist, and after 5 of these 6 hour long testing sessions, they said that I had Asperger's Syndrome.

What gets me about WP is the fact that someone can skim through the Wikipedia article about Asperger's, say "yea, that sounds vaguely like me", then say that they believe they have Asperger's, and I'm supposed to just accept them as being true aspies and not tell them how full of shit they are?

I'm not supposed to question anyone's diagnosis even when they admit that they were never actually diagnosed with anything, that doesn't work in my brain.

I think the self diagnosed, you can say if they do or not because a self diagnoses doesn't count. They could have something else. So I don't think peoples opinions matter about if they have it or not.
