This is just to let you know some more about myself as I figured this should be here in order to try to limit any further misunderstandings.

Just so you know, I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome years ago and also have OCD. The reason I know that I have it is because of the amount of times I wash my hands and the times I turn around and go back to the mailbox to check to make sure I didn’t forget any mail in it and I had closed the mailbox after checking and getting the mail, and go back to make sure I put the flag up after putting something in the mailbox to be mailed off.

I recently noticed I have been some understandings and possible disrespectful responses to me, perhaps due to how I word things while I'm also dealing with frustration while being tired due to some situation that is keeping me up later than I wanted to be. This time, it is stemmed from an incident that happened on Reddit where a topic of mine had been deleted by a mod. Due to them not having a Modlog that is accessible by non-mods like Lemmy, I really had no idea what happened or what their reasoning behind the deletion was to avoid me becoming frustrated and not thinking clearly. On top of that, I just looked on Reddit for something of mine I felt that I needed to save and use here instead, and noticed they have been down voting a few of my other posts on there for no valid reason.

Since I wasn't able to find another koala community to switch to on Reddit and Lemmy doesn't appear to have one, and that I have a love for koalas as well as concerns I have about what is happening to them in Australia, I had decided to go ahead and create this community to provide a place for discussions about that here. It is also the reason I created Konala Koala as a character of mine and my handle here, though it started further back when I originally decided to put a koala costume on my Reddit avatar.

Below is an image I have of what Konala Koala looks like, which was created by using a clipart I had gotten and making changes to it.

Welcome to the Koalawalla Woods

This is the community for koala lovers to discuss koalas that need land and woods since they are in danger of becoming extinct in their most native wilderness habitat on the Koala Coast of South East Queensland and Northern New South Wales.

We hope this haven in the eucalyptus woods can bring attention to this serious issue facing Australia's most recognizable national icon and the natural heritage in which it thrives.

You can share a koala story, ask a koala question, or start a koala conversation about saving koalas. Maybe you will make some friends in the process.
