Where? I have received no PMs, I can't find any threads about it etc. I'd just like to know what I actually got banned for, lmao.

I just saw a post about it in the "Coffee and Small Danish" thread. But I'm sure you didn't mean anything bad by it.
Honestly I've been wondering myself... it's just... as someone with a diagnosis, when I saw that was the reason, I... got curious. Wondered if you meant it to be offensive, or if it was just taken as such.

As for not telling; part of me understand why, part of me miss the old days of openness. Guess I'm too far in now, to leave, but honestly; there are time when it feels like the new management (from the 2019 revamping of the forum) try too much to make things be their way, without looking at year-long traditions.

(Sorry for making this all about me...)

Yeah, it is...

However, I read something about trying to use a diagnosis as an insult. Silly you; a diagnosis isn't an insult.
Any description can be (used as) an insult (like "girl" or "gay" or "old"). I think it's unsurprising to use a disorder as an insult, or to take such a use as an insult.

Do you think "ugly" is intrinsically an insult? Are ugly people worse or lesser humans than beautiful people?
