Reep is named after a user in the bigfooty forum. I chose that username because at the time i liked the reep part of the name, and the bot part of the name was that i felt like a robot who was incapable of feelings feelings for anything or anyone at that time.

I figured that would be the meaning of the bot part.

Have your feelings changed since that time?

It was her 'I don't believe your poor little reepbot story' like I was making this up to get sympathy from people. But the thing is the last thing i want is sympathy. I was asked questions about me and i answered them.

Hmm fair enough. I guess my questions were along the line of questioning already established which related to your employment prospects. Maybe if started with delcan's question - but maybe not? - but nice again my questions were unrelated to anything she said.

But yes you did answer didn't you. Thanks?

To be fair I think Jessy was responding to questions I may have started. I have been trying to ask a wide range of potetnial conversation starter questions, so that if people were curious (or I was) that more could be asked. So sorry to you both @jessy_girl and @reepbot for causing tension. That wasn't my intention. I have certainly learned a lot of awesome things about you RB, but it is the nature of this honest answers to questions week you are undertaking that people will delve further into areas they are curious about, which I think is what Jessy was doing.

Yes thanks, you are right that's what I was doing but honestly no need to apologise.

I agree, I am finding this recent discussion quite informative and it has given me a much greater framework of context for reepbot.

I think my employment prospects are pretty low. I used to go to an aspergers support group and one of the people there were told that they were unemployable.

That is horrible, and just not true - and is said to many people not just people with aspergers. I have interviewed someone for aspergers fro a job, and whilst they were not right for the role they were being interviewed for (due to there being a skill gap in the team that needed filling immediately, as the team was too short on time and staff to be able to get someone up to a high level of understanding on certain software) I definitely thought they would be great for some other roles. You are obviously pretty competent on a computer, have a good intellect, and are able to converse in written form, so don't sell yourself short on what you are capable of.

This article is interesting

Hi @reepbot - can you explain why there are posters that want you banned?

I do not get it, you seem funny, whimsical, and interesting to me.

I also do not get how or why posters are bothered by @Witty Banter , @AntiGretel interesting posts.

Is there some big nasty arguing and insulting thread I have not discovered

Very interesting. Apparently i read that there might not be enough jobs for everyone or robots will be taking over all the jobs so the government will be paying everyone a basic minimum wage so they don't all riot on the street.

I have heard often of jobs that won't exist in the future - I struggle to see that happening! Computers and technology I think have created more jobs than they have removed!

Inigo wants me banned because her and i used to be friends but we had a falling out over a pm incident a few months back when i stupidly told her something that ijake said in confidence to me. I have tried and hoped to become friends with her again but she is someone who only gives people one chance. Which i don't agree with as don't all types of relationships need work? Also she got mad over me still following her. But my argument is that there could be times in the future where i am like really sad about her or feeling any sort of emotions towards her and if i did unfollow her now then there is no guarantee i won't follow her again in the future when i am feeling like that in two in the morning. That snowballed into today where she hates me. I don't hate her though.

She probably has a different side though.[DOUBLEPOST=1444461627][/DOUBLEPOST]
