`Silver Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Hello people of Arocalypse You will probably remember me from AVEN, or... actually, probably not unless you're a long termer. I've been active on and off from 2011 to 2015 on that website, but it's been a while since I took part in the forum life actively. I'm hanging around here since a friend told me this forum had been revived and that's cool we could definitely use an alternate space since there's so much political correctness going on on AVEN and it really irks me. So I hope this flies and grows! I'm not planning on being an active member, but saying hi couldn't hurt, I figure. (Also I want to know what my profile looks like when I post. Yes, I'm silly.)

DeMorgan Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 And a hello to you as well! Can you elaborate on the political correctness on AVEN that is irking you; I haven't noticed it. Anyway, have some ice cream and enjoy the forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, have some ice cream and enjoy the forum! Oh, it's mostly the endless label creation. I think it's gone way overboard and that they're doing far too much to protect identities that IMHO shouldn't exist in the first place. All in the name of "inclusion". That, and the word "asexual" has lost its meaning when one specific term was coined and attached to the ace spectrum when, again IMHO, it didn't make sense at all for it to be included. The labels I'm seeing on this forum are a lot simpler and more straightforward, just like the good old AVEN days. I like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
