Default Anone else get phases on their forums?

For some reason, my main forum goes in phases.

For many months, we had loads of people introducing themselves as having Aspberger's, and some even claiming to have very mild Aspberger's (for those not in the know, it's a mild form of autism). That seemed to die down when my team and I pointed out that we didn't care, and nobody was accepting it as an excuse if someone behaved badly. I also made pointed notes in threads that if it wasn't diagnosed by a doctor then I had no time for the claim.

We had a few weeks where it was 'announce your sexuality' in the introduction section. It's not a dating site, and it's not relevant - why come straight out with it? It wasn't just saying, "Hi, I'm *** and I'm gay," or that they were bi or whatever, but it nearly turned into a game of 'name my kink!'.

There was a bad time when quite a few relatives seemed to decide to die en masse, and a better time a bit previously when a fair number of female board members gave birth. There were others, but I can't remember what they were right now.

So, am I alone in noticing this happening?
