Hello, everybody!
I just wanted to quickly stop in, say hello, and introduce myself.
I can't believe that I hadn't heard of this site before now, but I'm already starting to feel comfortable and right at home here.
Anyhow, my name's Kenny and I look forward to getting to know this site and its members better!

Hi Kenny and welcome to AbleGamers. We are always happy to see new faces (even if you just a blank avatar). Enjoy your stay and if you can think of a way to make the site better, let us know.

Welcome to the madness, we hope to enjoy your stay.
Pull up a muffin and have a seat.

Welcome friend! I look forward to your contributions to Able Gamers! Find a recliner, settle in & enjoy your stay!

Hi, My name is LegionNinja, and I'm somewhat disabled. Although it may not look like it by the way I am typing, I have a LOT of disabilities. Some of them you may find a bit hard to believe. I have ADD, Autism (Aspergers Syndrome), Cerebral Palsy, Depression (Bi Polar), Hydrosephalus, Mild Mental Retardation, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and Schitzophrenia.

Welcome LegionNinja! I'm glad you found us. Please enjoy your stay.

This might be naughty for doing a thread necromacy, but hell, better than nothing.

Hello all!

Name's Rider, to which I got reffered to the site via the BBC Ouch messageboards from one of the Associate Editors Steve Spohn (As FacePunchRider). All the details are in my profile, but I did miss a couple of things out.


Just as general background for those without spoons, I'm a 17 year old Autistic (Asperger Syndrome) currently revising for his A Levels in History, ICT and Psychology [Ironic!], but I'm also quite the addict to gaming, mainly WoW, Left 4 Dead, and other games attached via Steam. I do have multiple consoles however, thus if I do get an internet back up on some of these, I'd be happy to game with some other types.

For now, I'm more than likely to lurk on these boards, but provided the place is generally more accepting and less political than BBC Ouch is, I may actually start posting alot more!

Thanks for all the fish.

bwahaha, the takeover from europe continues: We are the borg resi.. oh you know. :-P

Shame about the wow, but you'll grow out of it

How up to date were your ICT classes? In my school days they wee about 4 to 6 years behind the times.
What's your favorite area/era history wise?
With that mix I'm mildly surprised social studies wasn't in there.

Btw: As far as I've noticed the post speed isn't so high that threads die often.

I'm already a man thanks to L4D2. Could have been more kiddish if it was the Australian version!

As far as I'm aware, we're the second year to go through, so it should be relatively recent stuff. All the better really, if not harder. Although I am getting more experience from another WoW related site known as The Coven of the Blue Panda, where we volunteer our services to players suffering from the wonders of "Compromised" (not Hacked) accounts, so I do hold some interest.

What's your favorite area/era history wise?

Truth be told, I prefer all sorts of history. Medicinal history was one my best in my opinion for GCSE, but that was because there was proper development and you could see the actual advancements compared to British History, where it's more focused on a monarch's reign.

With that mix I'm mildly surprised social studies wasn't in there.

Oh, it's just in a 6th Form, no real Social Studies apart from Sociology, but unfortunately, option lines and the freeing of one line for revision purposes made me have to pick Psychology. I might consider it at a later date though, as Centigrade Tests for discovering our likes/dislikes for university considerations showed I have a "Very Strong" interest in similar subjects.

Good, I should be able to spam this board freely when stressed then.

I kid, I know the rules. Still, I have some interesting topics in mind, but I'm going to lurk first and then see what happens. Let's just hope that it doesn't turn into Ouch and have people complain about me being a troll for not supporting Social Models of Disability when you need both the medical and social aspects to fully integrate into society. *Facepalm*


Anyway, I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favourite forum of the Internet.
(Couldn't resist the Mass Effect 2 internet meme, sorry!)

That's a meme now? But that's been around longer than two days and doesn't have cats saying funny things while using poor grammar!

Welcome aboard, folks
