Re: the BRO thread
Hi Kenn,
Understood perfectly what you meant..... As explained earlier, the word bro is a greeting I use on friends or ppl whom I want to be friendly with in real life....little do I know that it is viewed differently here.....If it make you feel uncomfortable...I retract the address becos I do not want to lose a potential friend in you or some of the other forummer.....
Why I reply only to you, terry, toto, iscoupe and a few of the other forummers only is becos I feel that you guys, while having fun in this thread, are putting your point straight and without prejudice... Whether we can be friends or even the"BRO" level in the future or not, it is a gesture I respect.
I have no interest in any popularity voting game or whatsoever.....I am jux here to know more friends, as I do not have the luxury to do so over the last decade. I reckon if I post actively, and be helpful in one way or another, I will be able to make more friends here..... alas...little do I know that it brought out a nasty side of a forum.....figure pointing, accusations and unnecessary attention.
I will not post in threads like this anymore to reduce animosity and misunderstanding. But nothing will stop me from my rights to making new and old friends here by posting actively.....
Take good care....and wave back or have a chat when we meet each other at any meetups.... you will realise I da sincere man too.
Cheers

Re: the BRO thread
let me offer some friendly advice and observations, in addition to what kenn has said...
1. take your time. don't rush.
2. sometimes, quality is better than quantity.
3. there is a fine line between "trying hard" and "trying too hard".
4. there is a difference between offended and annoyed/irritated.
5. learn to use "multiquote" and "edit" functions to avoid being labelled as post whore.
6. do a forum search for racist comments to see what "nasty side" really means.
7. if you offer advice or opinions, be prepared to get called out on it. caveats will not matter if you can't substantiate the given advice or opinions.
8. don't make statements that you are not absolutely sure of. (eg. "original creator of Ai * Mai")
9. don't make generalised statements on behalf of the forum. (eg. "I'm sure the forummers here will be more than happy to help")
10. Kiang too ho, mai kei kiang...
so far, most post have been relatively mild - mainly poking only.
i want to believe that it's because most posters (as I do) consider you sincere, inspite of your somewhat, imo, irritating posts.
all said and done, have fun here and do continue your exuberance.
ps it's lau jiao, not lau chio, unless you mean lau chio...
cheers

Re: the BRO thread
Brutally honest and straight to the point. Hope that such kind advice are taken in good light. I doubt this forum is nasty. Trust me, it could have been worse. It's been fairly mild... The real flaming hasn't started cuz everyone is merely poking as per what ed said... I love point 10, effective summary.
