Anyone know his GT?
[QUOTE=beanhead;27679967]Anyone know his GT?[/QUOTE] Yeah I added him: r3t4rd4life
[QUOTE=GerardV2;27679874]Like what? Playing video games all day and being unfair? That's real proper.[/QUOTE] I've seen autistic people working at museums and the grocery store, they're fine.
[QUOTE=marlkarxv2;27679952]I'm just pointing out it's stupid to compliment people for being good at video games. It's not a true accomplishment. You're such a wise man[/QUOTE] Then it's also stupid to compliment people who play chess. Or sports. Whoa you got ball into the goal, such an accomplishment :downs:
[QUOTE=SomeRandomGuy18;27679271]OH MY GOD GAMERSCORE WHO GIVES A SHIT /caps[/QUOTE] please recognize the autistic part
is it really too much trouble to just remove the tag? for god sake the whole "cheat detection" (if you can call it that) is user controlled by sending reports, so half of the time its faulty anyway.
[QUOTE=johan_sm;27680006]Then it's also stupid to compliment people who play chess. Or sports. Whoa you got ball into the goal, such an accomplishment :downs:[/QUOTE] Except chess requires logic and sports require one to be strong, fast, etc. Dead Rising 2 and Halo 3 (two games this young man plays) do not require anything besides the ability to push buttons.
[QUOTE=Lexinator;27679201]Valve has a tax system?[/QUOTE] third fucking time I've done that
[QUOTE=marlkarxv2;27680040]Except chess requires logic and sports require one to be strong, fast, etc. Dead Rising 2 and Halo 3 (two games this young man plays) do not require anything besides the ability to push buttons.[/QUOTE] I don't see a monkey playing any of these games yet, so I suppose they require more than that.
Microsoft just hates people in general, they think "OH WE'RE ALWAYS RIGHT(We won't negotiate with "cheaters.""
[QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;27680076]Microsoft just hates people in general, they think "OH WE'RE ALWAYS RIGHT(We won't negotiate with "cheaters.""[/QUOTE] Who the fuck cares. It's just a fucking gamertag. Make a new one.
[QUOTE=johan_sm;27680068]I don't see a monkey playing any of these games yet, so I suppose they require more than that.[/QUOTE] there is a difference between a monkey and a human
[QUOTE=marlkarxv2;27680002]I've seen autistic people working at museums and the grocery store, they're fine.[/QUOTE] And that's the farthest they'll go. I've never once seen an autistic person do something actually useful; I don't mean to offend but seriously why keep what is useless.
I'm tempted to email/call Microsoft to tell them it IS possible to remove that, and they just don't like being wrong. Bunch of idiots is what the entire company is.
[QUOTE=marlkarxv2;27680040]Except chess requires logic and sports require one to be strong, fast, etc. Dead Rising 2 and Halo 3 (two games this young man plays) do not require anything besides the ability to push buttons.[/QUOTE] Being good at games requires speed, logic, hand-eye coordination, planning. Actually a rather wide range of skills when you look at it over all.

[QUOTE=GerardV2;27680151]And that's the farthest they'll go. I've never once seen an autistic person do something actually useful; I don't mean to offend but seriously why keep what is useless.[/QUOTE] packing bags is useful, cleaning cars is useful, working at restaurants is useful small jobs like these are great for autistic people [QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;27680169]Albert Einstein had Aspergers. Look at his name today, it's in Science Textbooks as a hero.[/QUOTE] Bullshit, people say he does just because of his social behaviors, well that's not enough reason.
[QUOTE=GerardV2;27680151]And that's the farthest they'll go. I've never once seen an autistic person do something actually useful; I don't mean to offend but seriously why keep what is useless.[/QUOTE] You know, Einstein was probably autistic. A lot of great people were probably autistic but never diagnosed with it because it was unknown at the time or just went undiagnosed.

[QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;27680169]Albert Einstein had Aspergers. Look at his name today, it's in Science Textbooks as a hero.[/QUOTE] Hell, there you go. I was on the right track I just didn't care to go very far with it. Thanks.

[QUOTE=Magistrate;27680192]some people dont have the heart to kill / abort their kids, and thats because we don't like in a world where output to society is everything[/QUOTE] And because having autism doesn't mean you are somehow incapable of performing well and must relegated to the margins.
[QUOTE=GerardV2;27679775]So just because he's autistic doesn't mean he could be a cheater? He probably did cheat and just lied to his mom about it. [B]Autistic kids need to go somewhere, they're just a nuisance to society tbh.[/B][/QUOTE] I agreed with you up until this point here.
[QUOTE=Zeddy;27680236]And because having autism doesn't mean you are somehow incapable of performing well and must relegated to the margins.[/QUOTE] except it most cases it does, autistic people have an interest in one thing, and they're good at that one thing, and that's basically it
[QUOTE=GerardV2;27680151]And that's the farthest they'll go. I've never once seen an autistic person do something actually useful; I don't mean to offend but seriously why keep what is useless.[/QUOTE] They don't have any control over being autistic, so why the fuck would you punish them for something they didn't do.
Microsoft is just getting worse. They will let the TF2 Xbox version get a couple of free updates, and now banning autistic people with high gamerscore? No wonder valve is getting support from PS3.
[QUOTE=marlkarxv2;27680277]except it most cases it does, autistic people have an interest in one thing, and they're good at that one thing, and that's basically it[/QUOTE] math and studdering at opposite sex
How can MS "accidentally" flag someone as a cheater? Unless one unlocks all achievement of a game on the exact moment, there are no other possible explanations regardless of how fast a "gifted gamer" can unlock them.
