who are divers on CS?

[lanxx]

Well... i don't really mean to be rude or anything..
just thinking if i have met you guys before...thats the reason i asked.. :embrass:

Since its not a nice topic to talk about in front of all of you seniors...then...that shall thy stop.

Understand that phuket is sufferin from the tsunami too...i wonder hows my krabi...shall go there again one of these days to check out my nudibranches...in Phi Phi Ley...

Phi Phi badly hit too. Resorts there all gone
Phuket most badly hit so far in Thailand

 

[lanxx]

Prob May as I need to attend a good friend's wedding in Bali

I smell a scam coming

 

[beivied]

dear all,

please note that I have merged the Phuket Tsunamis thread into our ancestral thread, to allow constructive updates on the catastrophe that we are very much concerned about, and at the same time keep the subforum clean.

May I strongly urge all members, that should there be any wish to organise a donation drive, please consult the moderators and admins of the forum before posting it online.


Thank you.

Whyzzz: Isn't Aceh still under Marshall Law or something? Heard it's a great place to dive. Can see Orcas....Too bad I cannot get first hand experience account from u. Well, it's better to be alive. Aceh wil still be there.

Nika : It's not sensitiive to mention which dive op u learnt from. It' becomes sensitive when people start berating and defending them. Even I have some dislikes.

Lanxx: wat scam? :dunno: May also not the season for Mola Mola leh.

You are on your own on this one.......Goondoo, good work! Let me know.

(i edited and re-edited my words.....Beivied, my original words are a lot more "unfriendly")

 

[beivied]

kthan, please note that i did not delete the thread nor warn Goondoo not to do anything like that. Just a gentle reminder to inform the mods and admins BEFORE posting anything related to such. It is for a good cause but proper channels should be followed. I do not do things for no reason. I told Goondoo on pm that I will be glad to chip in.

but he is just an informant.....just like for eg, someone posted there is a donation drive organised by XXX for children with cancer. Please help if u can. Does that person need to get clearance from the mods and admin to post that too?

So long as it is organised by a reputable oragnisation (read not fraud) such as Cheng San / AMK YEC in this case, I just don't see that need. This is really un-neccessary censorship and control over a public forum.

Last entry on this censorship topic, before this gets dragged on and on. BTW, I know sometimes you have to act under the "orders" of some people. Well, kindly refer them to this thread so that they know what i feel of their policies. Feedback lah.

Hey I found a suitable smiley :sticktong
Hey 1000th post too! Wat a smiley to remember my 1000th post with ! better end it with lots of :heart: and :lovegrin:

Eric

 

[beivied]

this is not censorship. control, yes. i think from pm Goondoo had already understood where I am comin from. Goondoo IS part of the organization. Other forums have started such calls for donations and I am in support of it. Regulating via admins should be the way to go.

congrats on 1000th post and eric junior (hehe)

.

they opened it up to tourism this may. but it's quite troublesome to go, need to apply for permit to enter aceh.

my friends say it's a great place too.

i've not heard that one can see orcas there. but i dun want to meet one whilst diving. heheheh

 

[kthan]

congrats on 1000th post and eric junior (hehe)

tks...here's a photo. quick quick see before mods and admin come to delete
:bsmilie:

[beivied]

Thanks for the support, kthan, beivied and jimmy.

Just an update.

I had contacted red cross and they are extremely interested with the project. I had send them a proposal to proceed now waiting for their final reply.

Upon approval from them, I will need manpower on the actual day to help sell the pictures, some to help me on the coordinations and also sponsors from printing shops to do the print out for us free(which darren had gladly volunteered to help me sort).
We target to sell 25000 pcs of pictures hopefully able to raise about SG$250k for Red Cross within one week.

Meanwhile get your pictures ready. Expected resolution will be 1800 by 1400.
