JJsushi Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 soongmak said:sure: example # 1 and example # 2. Cheers, soongmak Bad examples that establish no evidence of a PC/anti-P4P brigade. Read the threads carefully and it looks like some people had strong opinions on the actions and methods of the original posters not as to the PC of the post and certainly nothing about anti-P4P. I ascertain that most who holler and whine about being flogged by so called PC'ers don't really understand what PC is. They are just pissed and very sensitive to being criticized. People criticize me all the time here on the board and some have even flamed me, yet you don't here me crying about being attacked by those who disagree with what I post.

elef Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 khunsanuk said:Hi, I have been getting comments / hints that there is a growing amount of people on this board who feel that the overal 'feel' of the board is changing. The funny (well....) thing is that some claim it is getting to PC, while others seem to think it is becoming more and more hardcore sex-tourist. I will be honest and admit that I do not know what to do about fixing this and turning it back to the board we have all come to love, so... I am turning to you. Since you, the members, are the most important commodity on this message board I would love to hear what you think is happening, what needs changing, what is bothering you, etc. I understand that some of you may feel uncomfortable with posting this on the open board, so feel free to PM or email ( sanuk@nanaplaza.com ) me. I promise that I will treat everything I receive by this way as private & confidential. I am very serious about this, as after all this is my little baby and I would hate to see people leave because they feel they are no longer welcome. Sanuk! PS I promise that no comment on this board, however negative will be deleted. I need to know how you feel, even (especially!) the bad stuff. Hi guys, I remind all of KS' original post. All members are invited to give their point-of-views. This thread is just supervised, not moderated in the normal way, so it's free to give your opinion without thinking about the risk of being attacked by others! This isn't tolerated! elef Mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiHome Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 So telling somebody that playing the guitar and poking all 3 holes on the first date is not romantic and giving somebody else a bit of grief for going without a condom are flames? I don't think so. The moderator actually made the judgement in the first thread that your post was not a flame. I still maintain the people claiming PC- bias on this board are over reacting. :: Any more? TH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soongmak Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 JJ, You call this a bad example. I think this is exactly the kind of thread that has the anti-pc brigade on its feet. Care to come up with another one that better fits the bill? Cheers, soongmak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soongmak Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 The moderator actually made the judgement in the first thread that your post was not a flame. I think this is what pisses people of. The fact that I got backed up on this one makes some people feel that the PC-brigade is ruling this board, calling judgements in favor of the PC people (not that I consider myself as PC, but I am sure some people would label me as such).

BelgianBoy Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 All, I dont really want to contribute to this thread except to mention that no-one, but no-one here is capable of exactly defining what is PC. Is using the word 'whore' PC ? If it is, is 'nigger' and 'jew' then also still ok ???? Is 'banging' a girl in the ass PC or only discussing it ? Is the non-use of condoms PC, or only criticism on it PC or not ? Is Bush-bashing PC or not ? Is AIDS really a myth ? or is it not PC to discuss that ? Is discussing Cambodia PC or not ? because it might lead to underage / indentured prostitution ?? So what is PC according to you ? Discussing taboo subjects or taboo words ? Still a last words on the moderators. We are first members of this board, and most of the time post as such. It is very seldom we need to put on our hat as moderator. And when we do, we follow the rules of the board and the rules of the owner, Khun Sanuk. Of course mistakes can happen, are we not all human ? This being said, bottomline it is all still about Thailand and sanul, definitely about sanuk. Cheers ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gawguy Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 THAIHOME said:"there is IMO a somewhat open stance and tendency from the PC-coalition (members and moderators) to rant against the ones, that are into the nightlife-scene" This is one of several posts in this thread (and the whore thread) that have made this claim of rants and flames by a PC/anti p4p coalition. Can somebody give me examples of this? TH flyonzewall said: Regarding Zane May's post for fucks sake, he's typical pattaya sleezebag ... he comes up with are some cheapo porn stories intermixed with ridiciously asinine opinions on thailand and thai people. absolutely disgusting. I believe this is why Soonmak referenced Zane May's thread as an example of a poster being flamed. But when ZM protested, the moderator even made the claim that he hadn't been flamed! :: BelgianBoy said: ZM "I respect and scrupulously follow your board guidelines, KS, which is more than I can say for people who are flaming me here." Mod "nobody flamed you, but you certainly invited all these critics with the contents of your post...." I strongly disagree! If there's any doubt what flaming is, that was it. It was personal and it was mean. Gaw Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
