TO WHOM MAY CONCERN,
PLEASE DO NOTE THAT THIS IS A NON-PROFIT EVENT!
IF YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS PLEASE PM ME. I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER YOU THROUGH PMs. THANK YOU.
Jacob
We understand that this is what you intend it to be and good of you and your group to take time to organise for the benefit of the commnuity.
But next time when you organise such paid events it will be proper and out of courtesy to seek the admin backing and concurrence to post it here as non advertiser so as not to create any misunderstanding whatsoever. Rather than posting it here and then tell all including admin that this is non profit.
I don't think it is very difficult to PM the admin and seek their permission. Admin in CS is not unreasonable as long as it benefits the community in CS, I am sure they will agree wholeheartedly.
thank you for your understanding of our intentions that benefit of the community. it is good to have cooperative moderators like you and cheesecake too. i'm sure Admins are reasonable people else the whole forum would have collapsed long time ago.
to us by posting here and inform all about our type of event is what we'd consider proper and need. if anyone would like to know how we spend the money we collected, do feel free to pm me. i can give you a clearer picture of how the paid money was/will be used. we've nothing to hide since it's a non-profit event. i'm doing this simply for the community unless clubsnap forbids me. oh, btw some of us actually mention of sponsoring part of it.
it is not difficult to pm anyone in clubsnap but we don't see the need to since we're not doing anything behind the scenes/illegally etc in this case. in fact we think that we should informed ALL(admins, moderators, paid/unpaid advertisers and paid/unpaid users of the forum) as regards to any of our events. thus we don't see a need to pm admins over this non-profit event as this is solely for CS community too. so posting it in the thread makes more sense than PM-ing everyone on this.
not sure who will be affected by our events but and unfortunately (and if) clubsnap is a community base also there's nothing much we'll change for except for the community. myself and others would hope clubsnap to continue to be great community base forum so we put in some of our efforts.
last but not least i believe Admins would be happy to see many of us here contribute to this community by helping others just as others(like you and etc) who had help us too.
if anyone would like to know how we spend the money we collected, do feel free to pm me. i can give you a clearer picture of how the paid money was/will be used. we've nothing to hide since it's a non-profit event.
Bro no point .... They live by their rule.. Too bad we got no backing...:sticktong
THE POINT is just simply PM the Admin to seek permisson before posting the NEXT TIME.
Is this as clear as distilled water?
We are adults. I don't know about you, but both Jacob and I are fathers of school-going children. We know what you meant by "rules", because we do the same to our children; we set strict house rules and they'd better follow.
Calm down, bro. You didn't have to elaborate your 'point' so many times. We understand your intentions very well.
By the way, aren't we OTing here alot lately. Let's get back to our outing and register those who are interested to attend.

Let me say again more bluntly. It is only polite you inform the Admin first before posting, period.
but rules are rules. We're merely asking for mutual respect and simple cooperations. If this can't be done, then what should we do?
If only you behave like one in the first place instead of behaving on the contrary when told of admin requirement.
apparently you did not get the correct idea.
Bro forget it... Just do wat they wan... If not like mi kana kick out... ;p
There is always PhotoMalaysia where people are more cordial and well-mannered.
Anyway, being a Singaporean, ClubSnap will always be my preference unless the admin decided that I should join the rank of 'Student'; as an outcast.
The moderator has clearly stated that it will be good if we (or anyone) were to do this again.....
We should just stop these fruitless discussions (or rather, argument) here and carry on with what is needed to be done.
THIS IS NOT OUR FORUM, WE DON"T SET THE RULES HERE, THEY ARE THE MODERATORS.
Again???? No way Jose.... This is most probably very unlikely after this incident. As Jacob had mentioned before, we will rather stay home and rot together with our Fujifilm cameras.
gd thing muz share share wif newbies like us mah...![]()
Oh... I got the 'correct' idea, clearly.
You guys merely wanted us to fill an 'application/consent form' before organizing and posting any 'paid' outing. Simple as that (I hope....).
By the way, this incident reminded me of my daughter's form teacher in school, Miss Kang. She says my daughter needs a 'toilet permit' before she is allowed to answer the nature's call. School rules these days are farcical, and Miss Kang is simply doing her job as a teacher cum 'moderator'.
