Impossible..... the opening thread was by YOU, Karen....Originally posted by cokeCan:Just as you know, I did not started this thread in here. It was in food and someone moved it here.
I am a mod, somewhere else, and even I cannot move a thread. Who're you trying to kid? -
Read the reply from Venny; the earlier posts and you will understand:Originally posted by Chin Eng:Impossible..... the opening thread was by YOU, Karen....

eg:
anyway, this thread related to food wat, jus telling us about a restaurant, nothing wrong with being here, no real need to be moved actually....
and that qlqq9 is nt an admin or moderator either.... -

You did NOT START this thread (which thread? Unbearable command of ENGLISH!!), but you did - your nick is on top of the opening page.

If this thread WAS IN FOOD, where is the link?
I say again: threads CANNOT BE MOVED!
What has Venny's post got to do with all these?????

YES, I started this topic in FOOD as it is somewhat related to FOOD but a while after it was started, it was moved here. I have no idea why so as well. Venny's post will be able to explain in a way that it was in FOOD, not in SPEAKER'S CORNER, that's why I asked you to read those posts as so you will understand. And I do not know why it is here now, so don't think that I am kidding with you. I can't possibly be moving my own thread as I am just a Junior here.Originally posted by Chin Eng:You did NOT START this thread (which thread?

can you, therefore, provide a link to the post in Food?Originally posted by cokeCan:YES, I started this topic in FOOD as it is somewhat related to FOOD but a while after it was started, it was moved here.

junior or senior or moderators or premium members - threads cannot be moved (in the true sense). Threads can be locked or deleted. New threads of the same topic can be started elsewhere. While it is entirely possible that YOUR ORIGINAL TOPIC is DELETED by the mods of food (ie Jason or Fireice, this current one on which we are discussion, is definitely started by you.
also - the first person on any thread is the topic starter, as can be seen in the Newest Topics page.
anyway, this is no longer important. Out of topic aleady.... but the reality is, I am not still not even sure what is the focus of this topic. -
I've no idea how to do that, if you can enlighten me, I will gladly do so. I very much wish to find out why when I started this topic in FOOD, it was being moved here?????Originally posted by Chin Eng:can you, therefore, provide a link to the post in Food?

Somebody with administrator powers moved your threads. Moderators in sgF can't move threads as and when they wish.
There's only one administrator here, so you can guess who. -
TS, what message are you trying to bring across?
-
go to the Food forum, check the topics. Find the topic you'd posted. copy the URL address on the top of your explore. paste it in the reply box and highlight the url. click the url button on the top of this reply box.Originally posted by cokeCan:I've no idea how to do that, if you can enlighten me, I will gladly do so.

nonetheless, what is the purpose?Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Somebody with administrator powers moved your threads. Moderators in sgF can't move threads as and when they wish.

actually, oot too much already.
Karen need to decide on what she's trying to say. From there, she should post it in the appropriate forum.
Otherwise, we'd be trying to pin down the purpose of this topic and it's futile. -
I am there now but I can't find the topic I had posted last night. Sorry...Originally posted by Chin Eng:go to the Food forum, check the topics.

You know what? Just forget it. Someone just delete my topic. It doesn't matter. Why all the hassle? Forget it. Just delete it.

Not that "superfluous" isn't a syntactically salubrious choice, of course.Originally posted by Chin Eng:I like the "tautology" word... I usually use "superfluous"

Karen, check your PM..... click My Mailbox on the left of this window (when you're logged in).... on the assumption that you are not familiar with the tools here...

I have the same thought, too. The administrator who called herself coolest moderatress in Singapore has done the same to other threads. I think this thread should be in "Chit Chat".Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Somebody with administrator powers moved your threads. Moderators in sgF can't move threads as and when they wish.

karen is trying to say that she is in the F&B for yrs and is upset that her sis have to put up with such poor service from that mention restaurant.
No? -
ok.... jus to get this thread back to topic. this thread was indeed in Food forum at first and then moved here by fifi.
maybe she thought since this thread wasnt about food actually but rather the standard of english n service in singapore, she decided to move it to speakers corner instead of chit chat.
ok, nw back to the ts's english.....
