so like...this is some form of ableism right? please correct me if I'm wrong

should go without saying, but this is NOT an excuse to go find this sub and harass this person. i trust people here to be mature enough to not do that but I do not condone any sort of harassment against them.

tl;dr it's a place to vent about bad experiences with roleplay partners, this person in particular was frustrated because the people approaching them sounded "dry" or "uninterested", and on top of that they took an issue with them saying common, completely harmless phrases like "Nice to meet you" and "That sounds good" for...some reason, to the point they think it's some sort of character flaw on their part and calling them "lazy" for it, and even mentioning outright wanting to cause physical harm to them. and all this over a fucking *online roleplay?* jesus christ.

as far as I know, it's not uncommon for people on the auitsm spectrum to sound "dry" even when they are genuinely interested in or excited for something. I feel like there's a decent chance most of the people they're complaining about were on the spectrum in some way, especially since roleplay as a hobby tends to attract neurodivergent folks a lot.
