Forum points revamp?

[Thick Face Black Heart]

But I can see your tolerance is splitting at the seams.

Well at least his tolerance for kinana cracked today.

Hello handsome,

How is your younger sister today ?

By the way, do you know who zapped kinana to negative 400 plus ? I am going to buy champagne later.

Didn't see her for the past few days, many kena gang banged by Ah Neh in Little India.
You buying champagne to POP? I going Geylang to POP!

Simi nemesis? who?

Fishcheebye.

In this case it isn't an issue of tolerance. I told him/her not to post with large fonts. It was an order with no leeway offered. He/she defied my order. This leaves me no leeway either.

She is a tough nut, very stubborn.

Is she still in moderation?

 

[Fook Seng]

I used to think you were Ramseth's clone, obviously wrong, paiseh....................

Your style quite similar to his, bother to write long proper sentences to explain something, quite thoughtful, but without the boasting and bullshit stories.
Although have to admit some of the bullshit stories were quite entertaining.

Clone or no clone, I personally think FS is one of the good intellectual forummers here and also a good thinker as well....Very sharp, very insightful and very diplomatically polite and humble.

Sam give me some face can or not?
She was not drafted into the army hence her inability to take order
Maybe I ask her to fly to NZ and have breakfast in bed with you once....only once hor
When you are fully satisfied, that I guarantee...please release her, OK?

Moderated members can still post. The only difference is that there will be a delay before their messages appear.

Homely old nerd wants to sue I mean beg for peace.

I wonder if the points system can be revamped to reflect the ability to stick to one nick and nothing else. I am aware elements of this exist but it should be confined to this. Here are 2 suggested models

Model A
After moderation - Nick picks up x points for each year of "service"
bonus points - threads started that do not end up in the trivial pile
Minus points for threads started that end up in trivial pile (double impact)
Bonus points for posting x number each month
Minus points for bad behaviour, intentionally and maliciously going off topic.
I am sure genuine donors understand this and do not expect anything in return except our gratitude for supporting a what was once a lone and pioneering voice of meaningful dissent and to continue to fulfill that role.

Model B
If it is hard to administer bonus points for threads and minimum threashold posts as in Model A, then restrict this to the minus points.

Mods given infraction powers to trigger minus points

As no member can award points to his clones and to his mates, the current hard-on for points woulld likely dissipate. There is also no incentive to create additional nicks but there is strong incentive to build the existing nick persona.

There would be members who are like to have a second or third nick for genuine fun and like hearted banter and may create these nicksfor such purposes.

Concern:

I am not sure if I am the only only one that senses this but we have had a perceptible drop in informative and light hearted current materials - what is happening in HDB land (not stomp rubbish), world affairs, the experiences from the man in the street, down memory lane, food, etc . They seem to have given way to baiting, personal feuds, serial infractions, hijacking, etc.

We have helped rescue the political folder in the past but the coffeeshop folder is now the playground of same few nicks who are either being chased or chasing some other nick.

Impact
- no incentive to have clones ( but you can't help some)
- incentive to retain and use one nick
- points accummulation and abuse is not top of mind
- easier to pick out the Brendans and the Wendys that wait for the next naive and gullible guy or girl and provide them with ready help and hospitality while the rest of us send cryptic hints and in some cases outright alerts.

Mods's Role

We should support all mods. There will always be a transitional period to learn the ropes. I have no issues with ideology, sexual inclination, and any other leanings as long as they can help with content and conduct.



The points may not reflect it but we silently enjoy posts from people like Chon and Joe (with pictures some more) however drunk, experiences shares by many while on their daily pursuit of life, travels, etc.

The bold text is part of the functions in this bulletin engine. What's the point of providing these functions but NOT able to use them. :*:

C'mon lah. It wasn't that big anyway.

He/she used it all the time. Bold is used for emphasis.

That's why Kinana had to emphasize everything in all her writings b'cos she's BOLD. Anything bolder than the size of the screen ?

I suspect Ah Forve was his clone.

She can always highlighted those words in Red. Not necessary to have big fonts most of the time.

My bullshit stories are quite obvious ones to spot.

I am not so deep into the Chinese cultural insight as Ah Ram.

No. She wanted to scream everything she wrote.
