Recent events in my life have been... Distressing....
I shall continue to moderate these boards, and you will still find me posting the odd thing here and there.
Though, if you see a topic that has been locked for no apparent reason, that would most likely have been me. (If you wish to find out, read the topic from a mod's point of view).
The reason behind this is that, because I am slightly different to you lot (As in I have Dyslexia), big changes to my life have a big impact on me and my mind.
Also, I highly doubt that I'm gonna be in-game at all, so don't get your hopes up for that either.

Note: If any of you decide to insult me in the future with the fact that you now know that I'm Dyslexic, will give you a rather satisfying 24-Hr mute.
That's very nice of you to share that. It's very personal. Good luck with everything and i Hope your troubles will soon be overcome. :-\

not nice.. Don't say that sucks to him.. it may but thats just rude. This is NO thing to mock. Also sucking up much? " the words you write are sick!".. Not really appropriate.
Mute,
I can't wait till you can be active again and feel better. ;)
Y'all need to learn a thing or two... First of all you can't "get better" from Dyslexia. Secondly, you shouldn't be more nice to him just because he has a disability- you should treat him with as much respect as any other player. Sympathy is good. Sucking up is not. If someone has a disability you don't treat them like they're babies or they're mentally challenged, you give them understanding and kindess.

exactly! mute is still the good forum mod he always has been, you guys can't treat him different just because you know he has a disability.
"It is estimated that dyslexia affects between 5% and 17% of the population."(of the US?) o_O What also sucks, is that English is considered a hard language to learn. Japanese/Chinese with their symbols are actually easier....
But yeah guys. This doesn't mean he's like handicapped and doesn't understand anything. It means it's harder for him to read\say things (to put it simply). Wiki also says people with this can still have IQ's well above average.
The fact you're a forum mod and dealing with this is just awesome, Mute. (Not sucking up lol, seriously.) That means he's (probably) smarter than you guys rofl. But not me, I'm a genius. >_>
I've pretty much always respected everything you've done (mostly topic-locking-wise), so you're fine. ;D
- Cole
Drunk Mario, you were doing it too so don't jump on my bandwagon.... I'll let Cole jump on just cause I love him with a fiery passion. Mute is probably one of the top 5 smartest people to play on here so if anyone makes fun of him for Dyslexia then they're totally retarted...
