This!

Since this is a thread on "What are you thinking about?", I am saying this as my personal opinion. I don't know the persons involved on a personal level, so please don't any of you take this personally. Just sharing my two cents, as they say.

First off, rules are nice, but do we really need more of them? Do they need to be like the laws of the land, where every year a couple dozen or more new laws are added for lawyers to dissect and scrutinize with a microscope, while we mortals just shrug and sigh at the growing number?

Like someone said, the current rules are fine. I agree. Besides, how many of us know all the current forum rules by heart and have memorized them or hung them on our office walls for us to be reminded of them everyday we sit in front of the computer or our smartphones while we visit this site? How many of us read them in detail when we signed up to be a member? And you want to add more?

What just needs to be done is to enforce the current rules and enforce them immediately and without hesitation. Just like traffic laws -- we argue there's too many of them already. Just implement the current ones on a strict level, a lot of traffic problems will be solved, right? No need to keep adding more or tweaking here and there.

Second point -- someone mentioned that there were threats, a long time ago, that deserved a permanent ban. Those threats constituted a "felony" compared to this "misdemeanor" that broke the camel's back. In my mind, the repeat offender was allowed to continue his offenses simply because the enforcers failed to do the right thing the first time -- which was to punish said offender with a permanent ban. Enforcers dropped the ball, let the bigger offense slide. They thought maybe the offender will change? They were giving him a second chance? A favor? Scared of him? I dunno.

Which is why the enforcers find themselves in this sticky situation. If they did the "right" thing a long time ago, then maybe it would not have been this "messy". I'm no expert, just your regular joe, but this is the way I see it. Personal Threats are a big no-no. If that deserved a permanent ban, a permanent ban should have been metted out a long time ago. Heck, up to now the ban is not permanent, the way I'm seeing it. Which is why I'm saying this is as much the fault of the enforcers as it is the fault of the offender.

Again, sorry to all the personalities who are involved here, especially those who don't agree with what I just said.

This leniency, Filipino leniency if you want to call it, is what's causing a lot of problems in the country, and looks like it's doing the same here.

Some will agree with me, and I'm sure others will disagree, but like I said earlier, this is just my humble opinion. Peace to everybody in the forum.

To those guys who say rules don't need reviewing and revising and adapting even necessary, please don't ever complain about rules in traffic, rules of banks, credit cards, rules of your HMO, your car dealership, or even rules on how to order a burger at a restaurant, because you agreed and "signed up" for it right? . The Philippine constitution.. The president. . Hmmm. Let's stick with it yes?

"Tweaking" something doesn't necessarily mean complicating it. We won't progress if we do not improve things needing improvement. Development is a continuous process. I'm no expert of the forum rules here. I'm just suggesting. The root cause of a conflict can be identified. And eventually be fixed. What should be added or revised? I don't know. There are the right people who are responsible to do that.

If only my 2nd son is willing to study in Manila then I might decide to buy a condo in Manila, para after 4 years naman ay si bunso na naman ang papalit sa kuya nya. I have a year to convince him to go to manila for his college education.

You better decide to get one sooner than later. Unless there's a bubble, condo prices are skyrocketing.

You're now comparing real life rules, law of the land and even constitution to a public forum rules. Come on man. Those can and will affect people's lives for the better or worse. So it needed to be reviewed from time to time to catch up with the time.

while rules here in Tsikot won't affect anybody.

Self-moderating is the answer.

Yung mga unmanned kiosk that later on manned na rin, mas madali kasi sabihin na hindi pwede regular yun kasi parang addt'l support lang ng company imho. Hindi pwede ipilit ng DOLE (not the pineapples) to be regularized. Hehe

But with the ever improving AI tech, soon this kind of jobs will be for robots like some hotels in Japan use.

I'm surprised too. Forum lang to may threat pa na ganon? Maybe I have to change my forum name and use vpn so I can voice my opinion safely?

Unfortunately, the "threat" was made known after the ban. No chance for the other side to air his side of the story.
