Please READ carefully or we would really be misunderstood that we Asians cant really understand simple ENGLISH.

You really make my toes laugh.
LoL pls dont take me for an idiot and I wont treat you as one.

We are all adults here. I'm sorry but I dont play games and I hate beating around the bush.

It is apparent what you are hinting or implying at in all your previous posts - dont be like a maneknek and hide behind hidden meaning. It aint cool - its the 'balless' way imo. Got something to say? Say it straight ya puss.

As for your other implied meaning of my speaking up for the admins - what do you think this is? Primary school? Good grief dude act your age for a change k?

Oh and by the way, before you start turning this into a racial thing. Yup I'm Asian but so what? Does colour really matter? Or are you some kinda country bumpkin that think it does? I really could not care less if you are red, blue or green with polka dots - what I do care about is to stand up and say what I think to be right....which in this case is calling you out to be acting as nothing more than a petulant kid.

Do expect this thread to be hot tonite..
Ya Ivan which is why I took offence when he implied that this forum is expensive. No one is forcing him or his banned friends to advertise here wat. If he thinks somewhere else is cheaper than go there lah - why come and cry father cry mother here?

And it isnt about countrymen bro - this dude is just plainly being an asswipe. Just for the record I think that the admin chicks comments on Asians being able to read was pretty uncalled for too. However since that was in essence her angry response to that guys racial comments - well think of it as a fight. If someguy were to hit you, would you hit back? Its just a shame when ANYONE has to resort to racial insults to 'hit back'.

Ouch! Now, now, no need to get personal or name calling ya?

HKS17 bro,

I'm peter/blackeight from thye hong centre.

I'm juz curious whether your friend really used such vulgarities and there is
really no necessity to resort to such crude remarks in ANY circumstances.

I had my LED thread removed as well juz because I was viewed as
"advertising for my wares" but the bros here know that LED lights are just an interest that I share with my friends.

I replied and explained to the forum owner in a cordial manner which i never did
get a response since 24/11/06 but I didn't take it to heart n shrug off the issue.

BTW, I gotta say your fren's carpets are REALLY cool
but if he is really guilty, then he ain't cool.

peace bros!

As a neutral outsider/lurker who doesn't own a RX8, but with a keen interest in online motoring talk, have you guys considered setting up a local Singapore RX8 forum or at least migrate to the local Mazda forum?

Two compelling points -

1. The vast majority of the threads in this folder come from Singaporean or S'pore-based owners - the Malaysian owners are chatting in their own sticky thread and I don't see any real contribution from the rest of the Far East.

2. The silly clashes with the RX8 owners from North America, who don't know the local context, lingo or cultural norms but insist on weighing in their opinions in a manner which may be acceptable on their side of the street, but comes across as just plain nonsense - case in point - the whole Sprint Booster issue: one simple review taken way off topic, especially by the comments from the US RX8 guys.

Sure every forum has its rules and by laws - but what works for a mainly North American-centric forum may not work well for the majority of the users in this folder.

Well, of course you're right, I make things up all the time. And I really have a giant stake in making someone I don't know from adam look bad on here.

A month or so ago Omicron said he had an email from you, and indicated he had replied. I've asked him again, just to make sure he knows you're still interested.


And Swerve76, I think there's been a misunderstanding here. I never, said anything about Asians not being able to understand English, and I never would. That is something completely made up by "Sexysheva" to explain to his "friend" why he sent that nasty PM to me. What I posted was the only thing I ever sent to "SexySheva." And his reply was the only thing I ever received from him, because I banned him immediately after. I find racism, sexism, and intolerance in general, disgusting. And anyone that's been on this forum for any period of time knows that that's one of my major hotbuttons here, and I call people out for it all the time. So, to indicate that I'd make some completely idiotic comment about any race, sex, religion, or color is pretty dumb.

As for advertising- anything that is produced in quantity and created to be sold to make a profit for the seller applies. So whether you make something for a hobby, or you're a car accessories professional, you need to be a forum vendor to advertise it on here. If you're having problems getting in touch with Omicron, instead of swearing at me or any other moderator, just let us know what's going on, as it's easier for us to get in touch with him sometimes than for regular members, and we'll see what we can do.

hi bro,

both side have their story and I didnt really hang on to it. Sad to say I was misunderstood as asking the forum to lower the advertising fee by a sad comparision.

True Adult,

Take note you mentioned father and mother. You can be emotional, but got to take note what can be mention and what not. Words like parents cannot be use too loosely.

Well said Elara.

As you can see from all my previous post, any adverts u removed I have not PM you any harsh or offensive words. I am just commenting on Omicron response.
Last to say, this is the GENTLEMAN way of clearing miscommunication.
