If you follow our argument carefully, you would know why i call him plagiarist. I guess some people out there are still in denial, i think it's best that you should just stick to licking robert's ass.Originally posted by AndrewPKYap:You are what they call anal retentive... you get annoyed because he did not cite his sources? Do you think he is writing a peer reviewed scholarly article for publication?![]()

I've thrashed you in a previous thread, if you want to antagonize me to do it again, i will.

see below? I was the first to point out that he is one of "the most chiog hei people I have ever met!" So I do not think I blindly admire him. How is it I don't remember you thrashing me in another thread? Must be you take everything so seriously because you have an anal retentive personality. You know like Monica in FRIENDS? Lelax a little, man.

Such a nice gentleman. I find it obnoxious for anyone to ban him.Originally posted by robertteh:Yes I admit I was sometimes a little chiong hei, probably thinking of demolishing all the falsehoods and hypocrisy at once.
thanks for the reply. my profiling of you is complete. you are obviously out of sync with the virtual community. you are absolutely clueless as to what make it tick in the first place. winning an argument seem to hold a higher weightage on your mind than any other issue. i am certainly not going to pick on someone just because he do uni or is a dropout from school. your objective/opinion simply deviate from the common people or should i say netizen.Originally posted by saffron60:Haha..That is a pathetic excuse for trying to justify his plagiaristic actions. There are so many websites on the internet that you can learn your quotes from. If you want to quote someone famous, you have to give them due credit.
You haven't been following our arguments carefully, it was only when i accused him of being unoriginal that's when he started to pick out quotes without naming the sources.
If you are ignorant enough not to know where the sources of these quotes come from, that's your problem. Things that I have learned in university have taught me otherwise.
Actually what you are decribing is a 'defeatist' view not that of a 'realist'. Getting 'whacked' is just one of the facts of life.Originally posted by Quincey:haha..kana ban..not as if you never saw it coming. Sometime, we got to be realist, sometime change is change for people to see one, not change for real change. Sometime, just got to be resign, and then accept life lor, like that one wad - see ppl even happy ego big big can whack other ppl when just casually chatting on forum. It's like that what, what to do. Aiya, next time no job, also say it's like tat lor, what to do. Next time have kid, no money to pay, also say it like that lor, what to do. Next time pocket no money, thing too expensive, tax too high, also it's like that lor, what to do. Got to depend on urself wad. The most if no choice sell backside.
yes. i understand my defense of plagiarism is weak. that's probably because plagiarism is wrong anyway. but the situation here is (human) doesn't claim credit to it. i couldn't see any statement of copyright notice. an earlier post by another forumer (which you had rebuked) had also raised this point across - (human) is not making money out of it. this is a public forum, it's not even his personal domain to start out with. if there is a need to pursue responsibility, jackson would probably need to shoulder part of it for it's his server that hosts the plagiarism.Originally posted by saffron60:classic case of pot calling the kettle black. You continue to argue as well and you accuse me of wanting to win an argument?
If you didn't go to uni, like i said, that's not my problem, there are loads of people on the internet who did. I'm not picking on you just 'cos you think that you 'represent the common people', it's only because your defense of the plagiarist is weak.
No use being too paranoid, at the end of the day, what's said in the forum is just talk....no one outside this forum really cares about what's happening here, but if you want to believe that the world is listening, then go ahead.

What (human) did was wrong is because at first he started quoting with the sources and later he removed the sources when i accused him of being unoriginal. To be fair to (human), if he had started quoting first without citing any sources, then it would have been understood that he CHOOSES not to cite the sources, which is fine, but when he changed his tune halfway, that makes him look like he's trying to take the credit. This then becomes a MORAL issue, not a legal or commercial issue. And now he is continuing to quote without citing the sources like the stubborn little child he is.
i have spent enough time on this topic already. let's just say i admit my mistake and plagiarism is very wrong. it's not my problem you are what you are. but please stop the whacking. you are just making yourself look bad.

nobody is telling you to be popular. you just need to avoid being unpopular. how do you expect your views to be registered when you yourself are being cast in a bad light. if you are sincere in participating in a meaningful discussion, you should do something about your credibility and i can tell you this, intimidation certainly isn't one of them.Originally posted by saffron60:Actually it's too late for that, i already look bad, i know that (at least i know some people feel that way).

Haha...what you said doesn't make sense...again. If you have read other people's comments you would know that not everyone shares the same point of view all the time. So if you are unpopular to one party, then you are not unpopular to the other party with the opposite point of view...now does that make sense?Originally posted by YI:nobody is telling you to be popular. you just need to avoid being unpopular. how do you expect your views to be registered when you yourself are being cast in a bad light. if you are sincere in participating in a meaningful discussion, you should do something about your credibility and i can tell you this, intimidation certainly isn't one of them.
hahah.. i saw that coming. put it this way, try putting your point across next time without whacking. this way, i will then have no doubt on your maturity level and spent some effort analysing your logic/point. politic/history (most of the stuffs here are repeated) can be a very dry and boring subject. i am sure everybody will very much prefer a clear-headed (impartial) article over an emotional one. good night.Originally posted by saffron60:Haha...what you said doesn't make sense...again.

If you are so worried about being cast in a bad light, that is your choice. I'm not worried about that, a big part of credibilty lies in the points substantiated by facts and how logical your argument is. You cannot rely on popularity among forumers to get your points across. There will always be different points of view in most topics, if you choose to 'play' the clique game of ''i like you, so i will defend your views no matter what'', then go ahead. The strength of one's words is the most important thing to me. If you are intimidated and you feel that others are intimidated by me, then next time you should have stronger arguments to support your point of view.
Unfortunately, you are playing the clique game of ''I like PAP, so I will defend youngPAP's reason (none whatsoever) of banning Robertteh" subconciously. Your argument that the owner, youngpap, have the right to ban anyone does not bear well for their image.Originally posted by saffron60:Haha...what you said doesn't make sense...again.

Hmm..unless you haven't been on this forum for long, getting whacked left, right and center has been happening. i know my words can be quite 'cutting', but if you can't take it, then don't cry foul and say 'it's intimidation'. My criticisms are not for the faint hearted. I have been anaylsing using logic, and you also admitted the fact that you were wrong about plagiarism. So i don't understand why you imply that i don't put effort into analyzing points with logic.Originally posted by YI:hahah.. i saw that coming. put it this way, try putting your point across next time without whacking. this way, i will then have no doubt on your maturity level and spent some effort analysing your logic/point. politic/history (most of the stuffs here are repeated) can be a very dry and boring subject. i am sure everybody will very much prefer a clear-headed (impartial) article over an emotional one. good night.
Haha...you are another paranoid defender of robert. You completely missed the point. If youngpap was really intimidated by the truths of robert, they would have taken him to court. instead, they only censored his words. The powers that be...not really showing their true power ( alot of people claim they have such great power, where is it here? i don't see it). As i had said earlier, robert was to be a martyr for the discontent and gullible people out there.Originally posted by bigmouthjoe:Unfortunately, you are playing the clique game of ''I like PAP, so I will defend youngPAP's reason (none whatsoever) of banning Robertteh" subconciously.

To quote you (with some minor edit), "If youngpap is intimidated and you feel that youngpap is intimidated by Robetteh, then next time youngpap should have stronger arguments to support their point of view"... not just click the ban button. What happens in real life then, do they exterminate the opposition at all cost since the ban button is not available?
To the guys at youngpap, you guys have a loser mentality. Jeers all round for pap youth wing...![]()

sgforum server is based in states.. out of sinkapore jurisdiction actually.unless they want to file the case in state which will not look good to them since the RWB & amnesty would be ready to pounce on them for their act of 'dictation on the internet' .. how many can u sue and how many can u close them down? the sooner you close one, another will keep popping up, all it actually does is raise the issue and make more people aware that such forums exists and more people would visit them out of curiousity to find out what the fuzz is about..Originally posted by Hogzilla:Can sue SGForum's server to pressurize the Mod to ban TS. Then can also sue Sammyboy and HWZ forum's server to close it down. After that monitor all blogs and then sue those who post different views. The perfect solution to monitor internet cricitism.
People like you only know how to kill mosquitoes. How about destroying them at the very source? How about prevention? How about the restriction of their numbers?Originally posted by saffron60:Haha...you are another paranoid defender of robert. You completely missed the point.

Playing the same old game of lambasting censorship, (that topic is still very popular even though it's been around for decades), and some people react as though it's the first time they ever come across censorship (those who have been living in a cave all this time). I am tired of listening to the same old thing over and over again. There are other ways to counter censorship, but instead people choose to whine and whine in the forum. Internet provides many avenues to counter censorship other than whining in forums, but i guess those who have been living in a cave don't really know the options that they have.
So, go ahead and use my own words against me, i don't care, just hope that once in a while you can come up with something more creative and original.
I think young pap too busy to take notice of noisy mosquitos like yourself, they are too busy running their own website.
sure censorship has being around for decades like you;ve mentioned. but isn;t it obvious that censorship has become more extreme as time passed by, why the selective statement of 'that topic is still very popular even though it's been around for decades), and some people react as though it's the first time they ever come across censorship (those who have been living in a cave all this time)? to make it sound more acceptable i suppose?Originally posted by saffron60:Haha...you are another paranoid defender of robert.

They cannot take him to court because they have no basis on which to bring him to court. They cannot accuse him of slander because they would have to prove otherwise.
