9xx something was where I was before I left and returned. Upon return got zapped a few times and Sam bumped me up. I asked that my original points be restored and did not need the bump. I think he got it wrong and cut more than the usual. I guess he then corrected it.

Can't wait for the day to cash it for NTUC vouchers and redeem it for an orchid motif shirt to wear at NDP.

KNNBCCB. Limpei see you so pitiful. Up you 2 points ok. Don't keep on KPKB about points again hor.

Agree bro. Colour blind to the very end.

Yup! Tekan Malays. Tekan Chinese. And hes no Chinese dogs. We need more bros like him. He wrote with substance. I love to read his post. Too bad he wasnt a Moderator. Unlike some jamban who used to be "moderator". Tink tat time SAM totally blind.

My worry is that there are many who have inside information, are able to provide good advice, can tear apart ridiculous policies and make the country a better place but are deterred from this zapping and stalking shit.

You may not agree but Fook Sing was one good contributor, and he left not because of that but because of Leongsam and his forum policies.

With good contributors being a dime and dozen, this was a blot on the record.

I'm not going to do away with the rep system for the simple reason that it enables Singaporeans to display all the obnoxious traits that they do in the course of their miserable daily lives in the real world.

I have always thought that a rep system was to help a forum community moderate itself, which in most cases do not work. Which made me wonder why a rep system until you just explained.

Any nationality would display such obnoxious traits in an online forum, that is why in a mature democracy like USA, online political forums are written out of the political arena decades ago. Obama doesn't log in like Goh Meng Seng to yak. In other words it is a human issue not a Singaporean issue.

If you don't already know that forums can display obnoxious traits and indulge in such meaningless experiments, there sure is something big missing at top of your head.

Fair comment. Alter ego, keyboard warriors abound

I loved Fook Seng's cool-headed and incisive postings. Remember that he left after Sam said that he wanted to hive off the political section and put it in as a separate forum. In the end, Fook Seng left but Sam did not do it.

Leaving the forum has become like emigration for singaporeans. You want to make the forum look like real life Singapore, some people will just emigrate in the same way people emigrate over government policies and what Singapore has become.

People joining and leaving are part and parcel of every forum including well moderated ones. Waning interest, content better in other forums, no time etc and SBF faces that as well. Being bullied out of the forum is a whole different thing. Singaporeans are compliant because of what PAP did to 2 generations. Imagine the bullying here to force forummers to comply to the views of a few who have formed lose association. No different to the PAP.

A Jedi must always know how to spell correctly. Please do not lose your cool over your inability to use "loose" when that is the correct word. :biggrin:

And by the way, correct usage is "no different from the PAP".

Your master did not teach you well. It is clear to me that you are not the sharpest tool in the shed. :rolleyes:

How the hell can someone force/bully others into compliance in a cyber world? How? Show me a single case in SBF. Just 1 example will do.
Look at sochi2014 aka TeeKee, how many nicks of his have been banned by Leong. Even tualingong with Infp was not spared. Do you see any changes in his postings?

The rep system is just another means of interaction which adds one more dimension to the dynamics of the forum.

I've found the whole experiment to be extremely interesting. It's one thing to behave in an obnoxious manner but the rep system enables someone with more seniority and more points to display more of a swagger. Not only can he say "fuck you" he can also fine a "lesser" member x number of points.

It also enables cliques to help each other in times of "need".

But the points are worthless and don't mean anything you might say but why then do people go berserk when they get deducted. It's as if their bank accounts were affected. :biggrin:

I'm still learning new things daily. :wink:

Even a member here who keeps on harping on and on about how worthless they are starts threads like this and repeats the same thing ad naseum.
