Aspiescentral poll: The results!

[Shiznown]

So, as most know we had a monthly poll running for about 10 months. I got all data together and drew up some fancy graphs.

Based on the results, the average AC user would appear to be like this;

A man between 20 and 29 years old who is officially diagnosed with only an autism spectrum disorder. He might have friends who are also on the spectrum in his personal life. He is on this forum mostly to hang out with other people on the spectrum and hangs out on this forum about autism exclusively. He never felt discriminated against because of his autism but feels that autism in general has a negative image. He is either full-time employed or unemployed and gets by on government assistance. And he most likely lives in either the UK or in Ireland.

For any interested, check below (and the post following; only can add 10 images to each post). I'll put up links to the threads of the polls as well as well as a PDF that compiles all together.

I'd be interested in working with you to gather data on a job idea I have.

Zombie thread woken from the dead! But interesting to see some members from the past again.

It makes me sad in a way, the zombie threads i mean. Why do people repost to threads like that? Where did all those people who used to post here go? What if i just stopped coming here, would ppl just wonder a while then forget?

am I the youngest person on this website?

Conversely, I wonder if I am the oldest. I dont feel old, but I do play the "I'm old" card if I think it will be beneficial. After all, I'm old and earned it.

It is nice to hear that there are lot of fellow folks from the UK on this forum, or at least there was, way back when the thread was created!
