I was just in a age regression server with my name being "no tq fancy cat collective" (system name) and was asked what the no tq stands for I said it standed for "no typing quirk" and the owner proceeded to give a song and dance about how they can't inforce that on members so I explained I'm visually inspired and it is impossible for my screen reader to read typing quirks and they gave another song and dance about how "littles will be littles" and they won't provide translations

discord message person a: @no Tq fancy cat collective what does not tq mean? me: it means no typing quirk I'm visually Impaired and use a screen reader cannot read them unless I get close to the screen
discord message person a: we cannot enforce that among our members me: it's fine I put that in my name so that people who CAN provide no typing quirks know I don't expect everyone to provide non-tq messages person a: just thought I let you know I let littles be littles that means if they wanna they can it doesn't feel right forcing them not too that's all
person a: I feel a lot of agere servers are to strict towards littles nowadays everyone has to be a certain way. everyone has to type a certain way.
person a: so this server is a safe place without feeling like you have to be a stereotype set by the server

i literally can't see your words I CANT and you don't need to say "littles will be littles" say your ableist and move on YOUR ABLEIST say it and leave me alone.

Also the disboard had "inclusive to disabled people" on their you are NOT inclusive to disabled people I never even asked for a translation YOU PINGED ME TO LET ME KNOW YOU WONT TRANSLATE FOR REAL

And the whole "everyone has to type a certain way" I'm the visually Impaired person I think I would know if every damn agere server included the blind and visually Impaired spoiler alert they don't I never been to a server that FULLY uses image id and typing quirk translation YOUR EVERYDAY LIFE ISNT IMPAIRED BY A TYPING QUIRK !!!! I HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!

I have to live like this for the rest of my life and I have no idea if it's going to get worse IV joined so many agere servers and none of them are accessible! I just want to be included in your conversation! Is that too much to ask!

Say your ableist in your disboard posts so that I can ignore them instead of getting Told you can't provide a basic function
