are there any guidelines in place that these patrol offficers must abide by? or are they allowed to randomly edit whatever they like. and why are they more out of control in the cambodian chat than anywhere else? ppl say whatever they want in the other nation chats but in here they have forum nazi that edit anything under the guise of "it was meant as a flame"...am i the only person bothered by this? i understand the need for some supervision but they are out of control!

If you dont flame anyone it should be ok. icon_wink.gif

i thought the same thing until i got edited for saying thai dance came from the kidnapping of khmer apsara (100) from angkor. that is a khmer account of what happen. that is flaming? i understand it may look negative to a thai but the thread was regarding the similarities between khmer and thai dance plus it is in a khmer chat...not a thai chat.

i also got warned for talking about the origins of the word "siam" when asked what i (and others) heard about it.

it just seem a little out of control and overly sensative to me. i see a lot of anti-khmer things that never get edited...but if it is not pro-thai than it is flaming.
Goombaking209
yeh, i think i saw you state your opionion about something thai and you got warned for it (that was so gay, an opinion is an opinion) but yeh i thought that was wrong for you to get a warning for it...

also, for you (if you're khmer) should really stay clear of the thai chat ... there are many cool ones, but there are just some that are really annoying 'get out of our chat you khamen!' lol ..
yien
i figured...i don't even go in there...i don't know why they feel the need to come in here and complain. if they want to come in fine...but they shouldn't complain...if they don't like it go to thai chat. they are so sensative...lol
Dara
I believe what you said was more than that.

Mentioning that apsara being kidnapped tidbit wasn't the main cause for me to report your post. We all know they took our apsaras dancers, it's been said so many times before. Regardless if it's true or not (even though we know it's fact stated even by Western scholars on Khmer history), it's still going to create tensions in that thread. Bear in mind, that thread went on for so long without any flaming. The essence of that thread was to compare styles between the two cultures I believe.

What I really reported it for was something else, I know I just can't remember it exactly, but you posted something that I thought would cause a flame war. So all matters aside, go ahead and make a new thread and state your opinions on the matter concerning Khmer and Thai dance, just don't do it in that other thread if it's going to cause any negativity.

And personally, I don't even bother going to Thai chat anymore either. @@
yien
i honestly don't remember saying anything with the intention of hurting thai feelings but i also have no intention of worrying about thai feelings in a khmer chat. they want to pretend they have a culture of their own talk about their pretend culture in thai chat. but thai "culture" is a sub-culture. in fact that may be what we were talking about. but it is a fact that they are a sub-culture simply because they are not old enough as a society. same as latinos...1,000 yrs ago there were no such thing as latinos. same as appalachian 'hillbillies'...500 years ago...no such thing...african americans...700 yrs ago no such thing...my point is all of them have distinct characteristics but that does not qualify them as cultures...african americans and appalachian 'hillbillies' are both very different from each other but they are american subcultures just as thai is a mon-khmer subculture.
Goombaking209
you can get away with (if you're lucky) posting things like that, but in the thai chat, they will get all sensitive and cut your wee off ..

culture discussions and origins in thai chat is something sensitive to them and you'd best just leave them to their fun and ego ...
yien
well we all know thai ppl have their own version of history...lol

i would make a "sensative" but it would be waaaaaay to easy...haha

stop attracting negative attention. icon_confused.gif it's as if 9/10 of your posts are made just to get someone else to argue with you.


as for me editing your posts, yeah it's pretty much based on my discretion. rather than wait for a flame war to start (although it was already beginning to pick up speed), i decided to remove the post entirely.

those topics you don't like happen to be about thai is all. i post a lot of other things. personally i have nothing against thai individuals but i disagree with sugar-coating and denying that things happen. to be honest i dont even understand flaming (this is my first forum). how can you get mad at computer people. i just like to learn other people's stories and tell the ones i know. and know other ppl's oppinions and share mine. ppl say anything i don't get mad...then you say don't talk like that in other ppl's threads...so i make my own...then you come in here all self-righteous...i'm done...its like you are editing a high school yearbook or something...ppl can disagree without getting mad and namecalling and accusing ppl of 'flaming'

hammie, did you notice that usually its the ones who make offensive remarks who complains to the mods icon_sad.gif madcool.gif usually no forum guideline abiding member complains. but the cambo chat doesn't neccesarily get more harsh treatment though.

Yien has a point, he wasn't suppose to recieve that warning after toki had already issued him a verbal warning.

I remember it happened to me once and I got it taken off after calmly addressing my case to one of the mods.

Cant be, joost sounds a little fobbish and has too many spelling mistakes .. this yien character does not sound like joost, unless of course he's making a new personality ...

yien
i am not joost...in fact this is the first forum i ever been to...i didn't even know what flame was...i still dont understand what troll mean! i just searched for something and came across this forum by accident and couldn't stop reading. thats why i got so upset with all this editing my post...the warning i dont care so much because i don't know what it does anyway but that editing is not cool...i don't insult ppl i just speak my mind...and i thought since this was khmer chat we talk about things that concern khmer ppl...not thai ppl.

and thanks Goombaking209 because i was worried about my spelling...haha
Sirikittong
Well I think joost leaki/azn leaki/ la nouvelle/ nobak has been taken cared of.

Our MOD team really rocks!

Got my support. 100%

Well, you may call it "speaking your mind" but we here call it flame baiting. It's just asking for trouble.

Hey it's only fair. Goomba reported me for telling what the word khamen meant, and I never directly called anyone khamen...lol But it was offensive to him. So, yien don't make it seem like Thais are all sensitive and we get away with anything. We have a culture, and we don't need you to define it or explain what our culture is to us.

oh hell naw ...lol ... why would i snitch on you when i sent you a PM telling you what i thought?

hmmm... i dont snitch, i take it to PM lol but i'll try to find the thread to see for myself since i probably missed something
Mizz_Luv3r
I'll look for it too..lol

I couldn't find it. I think it's gone now..lol
Goombaking209
basically, you and that one guy that was flaming got warnings, i think hamlet banned him or something
Mizz_Luv3r
Hey, I wasn't flaming. Just giving a definition. Then, someone got offended, but it wasn't an intentional flame if it was one. This is probably my third forum dealing with a Khmer chat and this is the first time that I got warned. lol
