When I said 'I never got shit on' blah blah I meant no one gave me a hard time, rather than taking a metaphorical dump on me. Maybe a problem with NZ slang and more generally accepted language.
Please don't let my 'Hello, my name is GeeMan' itro become a thin excuse to slag 440. Again, if I've mis-read your reply then peace brother.

Personally, I always thought being understood can be quite boring at times, LoL.

Re: Introduce Yourself
Yeah. That's an accurate reflection of 'how it was'. What it was at the end was a mangy pack of frail old hyenas that beat themselves into a terrified group frenzy whenever a new lion arrived, so pathetically scared of losing territory and their status in the pack, and (in their minds) 'ownership' of Cambodia. But do carry on, what we're you saying before you dissed much of the CEO membership?GeeMan wrote:To be fair, I never got shit on 440, but can see how those with thin skin or delicate sensibilities may have been surprised. My motto (as a lifelong sarcastic bastard) is 'if you can't take it don't give it'.
D, at least give the "sarcastic bastard" a right of reply before moving this to the designated bucket.

Re: Introduce Yourself
Shame - I was hoping for better, my optimism obviously got the better of me. I wasn't aware I was 'dissing' anyone, my tone has been nothing but conciliatory.StroppyChops wrote:GeeMan wrote:But do carry on, what we're you saying before you dissed much of the CEO membership?

So much for a brave new world, SC, you certainly live up to your name. Again, a shame.
440 had a pet hobby horse whereby they attacked all things Pattaya. I've been a BM on PA for many years now, and a fundamental ethic there has always been 'nice to be nice'. PA has always been, IMO, a better board for it. Maybe we should consider that here.
Anyho, I've said my piece. Best wishes all

Re: Introduce Yourself
GeeMan, I know your new to this forum. I, myself, am new to Cambodia, Hey Ho! but, from my experience of CEO, if you have a good idea they will listen and act on it ( if you have a crap idea, they will still listen and thank you for your input, although may not act positively on it )
Either way, they will genuinely listen
I also think this New Glasnost, is cascading through other forums and this can, IMHO, only be a positive thing
Welcome
