When you were a kid, 'being different' was treated with ECT. You don't scare me. I've been to Jita. |

While the name of the disorder has changed several times over the years, ADD was first documented as a condition in the 18th century. Nowadays doctors are pretty quick to jump to the diagnosis, I'd agree, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I'm a long term ADD sufferer, and while I see it as less of a disability and more or a negative personality trait, some people are less able to cope. People that simply dismiss the condition are not helping anyone, and for what? What do you gain from it?
All of that said, this idea is nonsense, and obviously a troll so the thread should probably be closed. The Indecisive Noob - A new EVE Fan Blog for news and stuff. |

1. ADD is real and if you don't believe that then you don't believe in science.
2. ADD is not a justification for changing video game mechanics.
3. Unironically using the phrase "politically correct" to dismiss a particular point of view identifies you as an irredeemable shitheel regardless of whether you have a point or not. Just don't do this, it's really stupid and does nothing for your argument.
4. This thread is terrible and I feel bad for posting in it. |

Lol, agreed. We also need at least 5 confirmations before any target in Highsec can be shot. Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

Being a person with Autism, ADD is part of my diagnosis, along with dyslexia.
And I feel bad for people like the OP posting stuff like this. There is a very simple way to avoid forgetting to update your clone, it's called thinking, and if that fails, the postit note on your screen with 'don't forget to update your clone'.
I've learned to deal with my disabilities, does that mean I can function normally? No, there's some things that I mess up regularly, and every day can be a struggle just doing ordinary things. It's a game called Life, deal with it.

Hate to say it, but a post it note should be enough. (qudos to whom ever suggested this first)
" I have just lost SP, do I like this.... no, what can I do about this, to prevent it happening again?"
Its not rocket science.
If you can manage to renew your clone maybe PVP isnt for you, you may forget to turn on harders, run D scan, over heat weapons etc.
ADD isnt the problem, isnt ADD keeping your attention on one thing? |

and to keep this on-topic ... the real problem with making EVE nice to some group (colour blindness, whatever) if it's not over the top horrible for people without the problem that CCP is trying to solve, it'll be gamed to hell and back again ... because that's what EVE players do. One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia |

OP has a weird interpretation of "discrimination". To give prejudicial and/or distinguishing treatment to individuals based on their difference from the norm is the definition of discrimination. |

That's not ADD, you're just bad. But sure, an option for an auto clone upgrade would be nice. Fighting is Magic |

You know people with ADD at some point become aware of their condition and learn to cope with it.
If someone is disfunctional to the point that remembering to update a clone after being podded is a problem, then perhaps they need to create a method of remembering to update the clone before undocking. |
