is Club 30 like an elitist forum???
-
oh dear!! I didnt know that you have got EGO leh...MR. ROLEX KING!!! I hought you are just one of the weak follower in this club30.Originally posted by ilovemyrolex:Dear Gaz,
I have no quarrel with you. But I observe that you may not have a sense of humour nor appreciation of sarcasm.
I have an old beat up digital Casio on my wrist right now, the one I got during my BMT (which was slightly less than 10 yrs ago).
What I was trying to get at was the fact that a pretentious little S.O.B. was calling everyone here an "elitist" (whatever that means... maybe we can ask our PM...). And what's wrong with that?
What about those folks in "cars" talking about their pieces of metal, or "bikes" or "houses" or "hedgefunds" or "luxury time pieces" or whatever turns them on. So is Mr. Self-righteous going to go around calling them "elitist" "materialistic" losers?
If that's the case, better be an "elitist" than a green-eyed pretentious little p.r.i.c.k.
btw, notice he didn't get banned immediately after making those insidious remarks?
That's the beauty of Club 30.
hahah....beh tahan right.... -
Well, you did say this:Originally posted by Gazelle:Ged, stop playing that old school dirty trick lah. can you please open up your eyes and read careful. Since when did i say that I am going to scan A FIRST CLASS amsterdam ticket....all i need is to proof to you that I was on that flight. Period.
That's where you said you were going to scan your boarding pass. Admittedly, you didn't say you were going to scan a FIRST-CLASS ticket to Amsterdam, but that's probably because you've only got an economy pass to Bangkok available.Originally posted by Gazelle:Do you really want me to scan a copy of my boarding pass to humiliate you in club30? Want to try? Got the balls donkey?
Now as usual, you're trying to weasel your way out of it. You said you were going to scan your pass and that I wouldn't dare ask you to go ahead. Well, I'm asking you to go ahead. -
After a little sideshow from a few club 30s regulars and others.. its now on to the fight between Ged vs Gaz.. Round 11956! Fight! -
You see Club 30s regulars as being elitist. Yet when asked about how deviant your idea of what "elitism" is from what everyone general agrees is, you claim that it is how you personally define it. But why stop here? Going along the same line of thought I can define any group of friends with shared interest as being elitist.Originally posted by KarismaPurdue:I’ve read through the replies and frankly am not surprised by the replies but pleased the admin staff have not banned me for being ‘taboo’. It is the same old “let’s hunt in packs” mentality.
Meaning, this guy is the baddie, letÂ’s all gang up and Flame him which is a typical response in an immature board or should I say board comprising immature members. I was under the impression we would get a fair discussion in Club 30 as I thought it comprises of members above 29??? I stand corrected if itÂ’s not.. maybe you should change it to Club Elite or Club Elite Wannabe? Just a suggestion Â…
WhatÂ’s so difficult about flaming the baddie or making juvenile remarks like heÂ’s Mummy is still nursing him? Nothing, it is sooo easy isnÂ’t it? ItÂ’s easy because you are in the mainstream.
So, whatÂ’s difficult to do in a board like this? WhatÂ’s difficult to do is going against the grain which typifies Singapore, go against the grain? Ohh! Hmm?!
Look back on your posts, did you have the courage to go against the grain in this thread or any other? I am sure many of you who have posted your replies will in you heart of hearts say no which typifies a mentality which will not suit you overseas where you have to be a #2 dragon.. a house lizardÂ…roll with the times and when the shit hits, drop your tail and hope. Why? because you are a foreigner with yellow skin.. just like me. Without your normal support group.
Which brings me to the‘green eyed’ issue. Frankly I’m a Singaporean who has worked overseas for close to 9 years, most of it in Genoble, France. And many a time I have wished that things would be different and I could be back home making just enough to get by and feed my kids who I see every once in a while and being in my comfort zone with friends and family. So your issue of being jealous is ‘not gravy’.
Let me ask you something which any Singaporean overseas asks him or herself in quiet or troubled timesÂ…why? Why do I have to work away from my comfort zone? And the answer?...$$$. So what IÂ’m saying is, practice some humility (esp in a SG themed board), just because youÂ’re going away or are working away (and in this case studying away) doesnÂ’t mean you are superior or any better than the other guy selling noodles in Toa Payoh. In fact, I am sure that the day will come when you long for the comfort zone which is Singapore (with all itÂ’s overweight baggage).
So, in closing.. you have the opportunity to go away, thatÂ’s great, but be humble, it doesnÂ’t automically make you a winner, donÂ’t be an elitist (in a SG themed board).
(base edited to themed in last sentence)
Compared to most of the people in sgforums, I am but a humble newbie. But even I could see that Club 30s people aren't exactly snobbish or arrogant. They simply share interests that are different from other singaporeans. So what is wrong with sharing opinions, discussions and ideas on their interests on the forum? Like you said earlier this is a forum. You discuss ideas, crap or whatever you wish on a forum. So please be open about this.
Club 30 was born and is part of sgforum so what right do you have to tell them to take their discussion elsewhere just because you get a feeling that it is "insensitive" to most singaporeans? Are you psychic and able to instantaneously establish mind links to all singaporeans so that you will know how they feel about issues in general? Or do you think fellow Singaporeans will get "jealous"?
If you want to diss then how about other special interest boards? There are many other forums that regulars discussing ins and outs about the "high life" that many "average" singaporeans might not be interested in.
Are they elitist as well? How about forums on certain rock bands? Forums that focus only on politics? Forums that discuss model collections? Does the average singaporean build models, discuss about a particular rock band and hold in depth political discussions?
Are you really that objective in your discussion? Your first thread has a mocking tone. -
Nah, there's no fight here, DG - I just like teasing the animals.
Honestly, doesn't Gaz remind you of I R Baboon when he spins out of control? -
Ged, my hairy balls and erected dic.k is waiting for you. Just give me a shout when you are ready...Originally posted by Gedanken:Nah, there's no fight here, DG - I just like teasing the animals. Honestly, doesn't Gaz remind you of I R Baboon when he spins out of control? -
It is not about fight. It is about who get to kiss the donkey ass..Originally posted by DriftingGuy:After a little sideshow from a few club 30s regulars and others.. its now on to the fight between Ged vs Gaz.. Round 11956! Fight! -
Ged, this forum need action. not just plain talk big and talking coc.k.Originally posted by Gedanken:That's where you said you were going to scan your boarding pass.

Just let me know if you are ready to kiss my balls and smell my wet dirty smelly donkey ass. -
There are some things I feel I HAVE to say in here.
I DID wonder if Gazelle ought to be banned but that was because he continually tried to start a flame war with Gedanken by insulting him, and one fine day, after reading a particularly rude post, I just couldn't take it anymore, and wondered how we should go about this.
And then, I received advice from several seasoned forumites that it's no use getting people banned because they'll just resurrect themselves using another nick. So, fine, I decided to take their advice and let the whole issue rest. I was just hoping that Gaz would also be mature about this whole thing, and not stoke the fire again because after that incident, Gaz DID post in here a few times and I didn't call for a ban or raise a ruckus because then, he just shared his opinions without insulting anyone in here, which was fine by me. Afterall, this forum thrives on an exchange of opinions.
So, Gaz, mock all you like about my 'failed' attempt to stop your obnoxious behaviour in here. It was my decision to heed the advice given to me by folks who have been in sgForums longer than I have and oops! I've done it again! I've become a member of the elite again by asking people for advice, darnit!!
And Purdue, I do not know you, and neither do you know me. For a stranger to come down so harshly on another stranger, based solely on a few recent threads, just doesn't reflect maturity and open-mindedness. We can all see your painful attempts to disguise your personal jibes at me with supposed civility, but please... we aren't dumb.
Like I've said before, gee, I must be a dumb blonde, cause I sure didn't know that asking experienced folks for advice was a friggin' sin!!
I live by the belief that the folks around me, have unique experiences, knowledge, and wisdom. I love this diversity, and the folks who know me here, know for a fact that I love to ask questions and dig for details and information. To me, it is an active learning process. There is just too much you can learn from experienced folks, and yes, I do want to assimilate all that information so that I can gain from the knowledge and know what to do, what to avoid, and make sure that when I move to Melbourne alone, I won't land myself in dire straits because of being ill-informed, not doing my research, etc.
There is a rich minefield of information right in front of me, by way of the folks here, who are well-travelled and whom I have grown to respect deeply. If wanting to tap into the info and experience goldmine is equivalent of being an elitist, then, ok, I'm totally guilty of being one, and unashamably so!
If you find any of the threads in here frivolous, do what most of us do when we find similarly frivolous threads in the forum - we ignore it, and move on to something more interesting. I might not like your posts / tone / style of writing, but instead of picking up sword and trying to be quarrelsome and antagonistic, I choose to focus on other threads that catch my attention. You seem to like to talk about maturity, well then, surprise! Maturity also encompass an ability to live and let live, to see things from several other points of view, etc.
An innocent thread seeking advice, has certainly produced unexpected responses. Purdue, if you had made use of your working experience in a foreign land, and given me advice about how you survived the four seasons, as well as what to take note of when migrating, I would be more than indebted to you. However, your version of maturity has instead, compelled you to start some sort of personal attack on me, and more than a few of us suspect that your agenda is self-serving, or should I suggest, self-consoling?
I will continue to post threads as and when I wish to, and I don't give a rat's ass whether you find them to be frivolous or not. My conscience is clear, thus I have no fear.
If you wish to offer migratory advice in here, I'll be more than happy to listen and perhaps, apply your tips. However, if you're here to ignite some flame war, then, please don't talk to us about maturity, because then, it would be extremely clear that that very quality has evaded you. -
EXACTLY ...so where is ur air ticket dude?Originally posted by Gazelle:Ged, this forum need action. not just plain talk big and talking coc.k. -
honestly I am very surprise that the mother hen here havent lock this thread.
She did complaint about the "dear" (with hairy balls ) doing all the "personal attack" and yet she is allowing this thread to continue.
If I am a member of the "elitist" (IF), I would definitely ask myself if the HEN is fit to be a moderator. -

OMFG - you've got a hard-on for me? That pretty much confirms the theory from ages ago that you're a fag - that explains your effete nick, I suppose.

before you ask for something, you better have something to give.Originally posted by fymk:EXACTLY ...so where is ur air ticket dude?
As for you, I think it is better for you to just seat back relax and enjoy the show. -
the reason I need a hard on, is because I would like to shoot my cum on your egoistic fu.ck face.Originally posted by Gedanken:OMFG - you've got a hard-on for me?

You fight like a kindergarten kid. -
Well ...ur the one who said you were scanning the ticket . You are also the one who said Don't talk the talk til u walk the walk. So Of course lah , I expect you to show the ticket.Originally posted by Gazelle:before you give ask for something, you better have something to give.
As for you, I think it is better for you to just side back relax and enjoy the show.
Come on lah . Want to show off you got money issit? When you are as rich as bill gates , then show off lor . Like that , people won't say so much about you . At least the truly rich got philanthropic organisations (like Lee Foundation) set up as compared to your own show off experience of a so called luxury holiday.
That is why I cannot stand your behaviour. -
Hmm - still refusing to show that ticket. Not that I'm surprised - Gaz has always been a "tua kang" (yet another one of his favourite phrases).
Look, Gaz, I'm flattered and I hate to break your heart, but you're really not my type. Don't go keeping that hard-on on my account. -
haha....do something about it? this is your hometown leh, how can you expect me to run the show..Originally posted by Rhonda:Oooh, yeeeaaaahh! I'm not fit to be a Mod! So, do something about it then, instead of resorting to petty name-calling!
You fight like a kindergarten kid.
honestly I think being a kindergarten kid is better than being a so-call elite that have to kiss somebody's hairy balls. -

Well, fymk, Gaz DID say he wanted to prove something. He's just proven that he can't walk the walk, but it's not as if we didn't know that one already, isn't it?Originally posted by fymk:Well ...ur the one who said you were scanning the ticket .

Yah lor ....nothing new there . That is why it is so fun to provoke him into making personal attacks. More he attack , the more dumber his behaviour seems.Originally posted by Gedanken:Well, fymk, Gaz DID say he wanted to prove something.

Try the time-tested ways of isolation and sensory deprivation.Let Gazelle yell and stomp till the cows come home.Just ignore him and we will realise its pointless trying to out-debate a person whose aim is to bring the idea of a absurd ruckus wherever he walks.Originally posted by fymk:Launching personal attacks is soo childish . Unbefitting of a gentleman . Another fine example of crass behaviour .
Oh yes, Gazelle, calling Rhonda a "Hen" is not very nice.Would you like it if we label you a Spurs supporter? -
Now come on, guys - didn't I say he resembles I R Baboon when he gets like this?
