Re: Someone can't make their own game so trying to get an existing one to make it

I know they seem off-putting at first glance but uhh... They most likely have some sort of developmental disorder or a disability. I don't feel comfortable mocking them. That's some low-hanging fruit.

Uhhhh really? I don't know what's giving you that impression as a person with a developmental disability myself. This person sounds more like a horny kid (regarding the "well endowed" dragon LOL) whose first language isn't English.

NAYRT

My thoughts almost exactly. Not sure about the English, but this definitely reads like a 16 or 17 yo guy who can't read the room and thinks any naysayers just don't understand his great idea.

He might be using speech-to-text because of a disability, but it doesn't have to be a developmental one.

I'm basing this mostly on how I've interacted with people on the spectrum, both through text and IRL, and I noticed some similarities; the tendency to fixate on certain things (including fetishes), inability to recognize how something won't work just because it makes sense to them, and how they express themselves ("A does this. B does that. But C is D.") and interact with other commenters (the more flustered they get, the harder it is for them to express themselves through text).

I don't think their style of writing is a product of them being ESL, either. Their vocabulary isn't limited at all and is in fact, very broad, while their sentence structure is simple.
ESL writers tend to be the opposite. Lots of compound and complex sentences but smaller vocabularies and difficulties using certain words and articles.

To me, it isn't incomprehensible that they could have a developmental disorder, such as autism.

Someone can have a disability and still be creepy and inappropriate

+1

Also I don't feel that anyone is mocking them? Just pointing out the weird/creepy things

+1 to both of the comments above me.

Having a disability like autism is difficult and I know from personal experience. We can’t let it be an excuse for sexist or creepy behaviour though. Thank you for trying to defend us but please don’t let the common attitude be “they’re just acting creepy because they’re on the spectrum and don’t know any better.”
