Improving the Forum

Re: Improving the Forum

I can see something which you obviously cannot see.
Even if you could see, you couldn't care less as a non Armenian ....

See, your own words prove what I said was true. That you seem to be blind to it (so blind that you actually posted the above) is even more proof if it were needed. "I am a true Armenian and thus must always be correct, and those who disagree with me are either not true Armenians or are non-Armenians and so shouldn't be allowed to be here."

Re: Improving the Forum

It's really easy to criticize, isn't it?

Indeed.

It was not a criticism but a polite request to improve the forum.

I think you (all) do a wonderful job, please keep it up!!

Re: Improving the Forum

I ran this through Google's Armenian-English translator, and it gave me: "I think it is disgusting that people have a free hand at disagreeing with what I post, since I am a true Armenian and thus must always be correct, and those who disagree wih me are either not true Armenians or are non-Armenians and so shouldn't be allowed to be here."

As for spam, perhaps that be solved by having better registration procedures - perhaps making it in several stages, and with a delay in posting rights for several days after registering.

I am not against being criticised.
I am not against free speech or opinion.

I can see something which you obviously cannot see.
Even if you could see, you couldn't care less as a non Armenian who is frequently hostile to Armenians ( at times justified but not always).

My point is, there is a big difference between starting a ( derogatory ) thread, leaving it as a hook for others to debate AND
expressing an opinion whatever that may be.

It is noticeable these threads were started by individuals who have only a few postings and disappear from the scene.
I see this as a sinister behaviour, without loosing my sense of the importance of free speech.

Bell, we've considered this as well, however spam has not really been such a problem as to necessitate this sort of action which would also decrease legitimate new registrations.

Re: Improving the Forum

I feel the moderators are not doing their job properly.

The forum is flooded with spam.
Non Armenians have a free hand starting derogatory anti Armenian threads.

It is becoming totally demotivating to visit the forum.

Please get your act together.

It's really easy to criticize, isn't it? Please refer to earlier posts regarding overreacting.

Actually, I have been at a work conference out of town and STILL DELETING SPAM AT LEAST 2x a day. Sorry if I can't be on the forum deleting spam in the middle of the night so that you can have a more enjoyable experience at 4AM. You can suck it up and deal with it until I delete it at 7am the following morning.

What's more... last night was somewhat of a rarity. There was one jack@ss that made 60 posts of spam. That has never happened in the 7+ years I've been on the forum.

Re: Improving the Forum

Why is there no link to the forum on the http://www.hyeclub.com page, or even a mention that there is a forum?

If everybody had the right to free speech there would be chaos !!!
