Filipino UK Forum Ideas, Catergories, etc

[aposhark]

Don't change anything! It's great! I just wish members would refrain from posting gloomy news storys! It doesn't apply to us divine beautiful beings! And it's bring!

Joy! Happiness! Pleasure! Riches! Orgasm's! Laughter! Bliss! Passion! Enthusiasm! Sex! Fun! (etc..!)

Now that's what applys to us!

I am completely with you on your comment (in red), Nigel
This forum was a much happier place to visit before one member joined and started to continually post depressing news all the time

[Englishman2010]

also it might be good that they would have to 10 or whatever posts to see the area,, so many people dont post

Good idea, there must be lots of one time posters who never come back

Some of us like being depressed and trying to remember what an organism is.

Wasn't this what we studied under the microscope in Chemistry lessons

what about a grumpy old men section, i guess it will be popular

[stevie c]

how about a members only area, that is only visible to signed up members and not the lurking general public. There are lots of things I could post, but don't as I'm not too keen on the whole world knowing my business.

A cars section would be good

Rather than the travel tips heading, break it up into sub headings (health advice for travellers, flight tips, insurance advice, places to stay or visit, advice for other SE Asian countries, any other travel tips or advice)

Sport section should be split into 2 sub sections, one for football and another for all other sports

I fully agree with the members only area

what about a grumpy old men section, i guess it will be popular

this would be brill to have, i think or would it , bloody hell i wish i did not answer this one, stupid thoughts

[grahamw48]

Not necessary....we already raid all the existing sections , bringing to them our own special cocktail of misery , frustration , anger , nostalgia and self-righteous wisdom.

I think we would be excluded,grumpy old man syndrome officially begins at the age of 46 years old,neither of us are old enough to join

[somebody]

Yep a members only area after a certain amount of posts. Like Englishman 2010 says plenty of hints and tips i might give but wont as not sure who reading and dont see why I should give help to those who dont give back..


Possibly the automated news feeds could be looked at sometimes the stories are so random

Members Only Section - No. The forum is for information to be shared, that is the whole idea I set it up. Plus we already have a hierachy membership The more you are trusted the more 'extras' you get

[Tawi2]

Food

Good idea Terpe,always good to try out new recipes,oriental/asian,european,whatever really Had an incredible Green Thai curry a few weeks ago in Bangkok Wok in Davao,wouldnt mind the recipe for that (My sis husband used to own a Thai resto so I know a decent green thai curry when I taste one)

I understand and accept that fully.
Just a response suggestion

Or maybe the daily mail folder

[Wombat2k]

I come to the forums here and search for advice when i need it. I would like to "give back" but the people on here have already done everything I`m currently trying to do. We very much appreciate your help. But don`t have much to add. You`ve been there, done that and got the family.
A 'members only/frequent posters' area would be good for the community here. But any advice/stories/information should be made public.
About all I can add to many topics here is salamat.

btw. Can anyone tell me the practical difference between left/right wing

All of your experiences are relevant to the forum, so please post them.
Many may have gone through the whole process, but the rules are constantly changing. We need fresh blood, think of the person just starting out? You being that bit further down the line, may have the advice they are looking for, all current & fresh.
There's plenty you can "give back."

[Scouse]

btw. Can anyone tell me the practical difference between left/right wing

In simple terms, rightwing is about money/keeping the majority of people poor in wage salvery, left wing is about co-operation and a more equal distributon of wealth.

Before anybody says it is aboyut everybody being exactly the same, it is not, that is just a myth peddled by the right wing to smear left wing views.

Russia was not socialist it was state capitalist, ie right wing.

[Sim11UK]

They say you become more right-wing, the older you get, so I'm guessing most of the membership here are ancient.

[grahamw48]

True, but if we're honest...it's frustration and a bit of jealousy....ie...GRUMPY.

[bornatbirth]

back to the grumpy, i knew this section will be well read

motoring.
technology.
adults only.
cross dressing.
popular culture.
religion.
marriage problems.
games.

[aposhark]

I would really like to see a category "Living In The Philippines".

There must be so much good advice out there for any of us who are planning to live there one day.
This advice could be very useful for people planning to stay for some months.
