QL Community

Hi Guys,
Just wondering, when I joined QL I thought I was joining an online community, however, recently I have noticed that some threads turn from intelligent debate to name calling, childish posts.
If I am not mistaken, the word community suggests people working and coming together to help and aid each other, to offer support when needed.
So, to the minority of people who don't understand the word "community" this is just a small reminder.
Lets keep it pleasant, we can all have different opinions, it's what makes us individuals, there is no need to turn them into hateful, offensive posts.
- NEW COURSES OFFERED TO MEN..
- Don't let them eat cake, Saudi cleric says
- Hamilton deposed of win, given to Massa...
- Dates Prevent Cancer and Heart Disease
- A question for Macho Men
- For my fasting friends: How do you do it?
- Anyone from Brazil, Portugal or any other Portuguese Speaking country?
- Turk Arkadaslar!
- 3 BED ROOM VILLA/FLAT-WANTED
- All you "Drinkers", PLEASE BE VERY VAREFUL..

I agree tallg ...but as normal in any society, the minority spoil things for the rest of us.
I do enjoy QL and it helped me a lot when I first came here, and I intend to keep on enjoying it despite what I posted :)

Mr Paul ...I did and thats what brought me to start this thread, I love nothing better than reading or participating in a good debate, however, when it turns to name calling and personal insults, to me, that person lacks the intelligence to say anything constructive.

WOULD YOU DARE TO SAY THIS ON MA FACE ??? NO.. YOU JUST ANOTHER COWARD WHO BARKS WHEN ITS VIRTUAL.
Is this a gentleway of talking to a lady??If you are civilised you wont.
Bandylady I request your comments.

In my opinion that was a ridiculous thread to start and you were asking for everything you got.
Mayasunil said

tallg ; Think twice when u tell a woman that she is been flirted , that too when she is not single and has someone to take care. Hamad is not a very good hospital.

Formatted Soul said
Bad example.. ...Anyway that was an useless thread...to debate on something that happened even before we were born and obviously no one can change history.
Gypsy said
The only people stupid ...The only people stupid enough to call Brit's thieves are people with absolutely no world knowledge of history or politics. By starting that thread you basically proclaimed yourself ignorant and opened yourself up to a tirade of insults and accusations.

brandylady said
mayasunil ...comment as requested.
My thread was nothing to do with any person or persons in particular, those who do resort to personal insults know who they are.
We have a saying in good old England
'if the cap fits'
Formatted Soul said
well.. ...While writing on open forums, you should be prepared to take negative comments as well. Not necessary everyone agrees to what you say.
tallg said
It's got nothing to do with ...It's got nothing to do with my feelings. My point is that if you start a thread about something that happened years and years ago, that everyone already knows about, that has been discussed to death before AND has nothing to do with Qatar or Qatar Living, then you're leaving yourself open to being insulted and abused.
You can't go round starting provocative threads and then cry when people react. Grow up.
Mayasunil said
Gypsy.. dont worry.. people ...Gypsy.. dont worry.. people appreciated than the few ignornt deniels there. i dont wana talk about that subject or thread here.
This shows no respect to women out here.. none can tell a woman that she is been flirted and stuff on an open forum.
Mayasunil said
cool brandy ... so its fine ...cool brandy ... so its fine to abuse a lady as per you!!!!
forget about the thread and subject. It was on a historical subject, not to provocate anyone.
cheers
brandylady said
negative comments are one thing ...resorting to insults is another, knew certain people would jump on this thread to re-start something best left alone
brandylady said
mayasunil ...your thread started with history and ended up a tirade against the british,
and believe me, I wouldn't suffer abuse, either verbally or physically so leave me out of your rantings.
tallg said
Why post it if you didn't ...Why post it if you didn't want to "provocate anyone"?
And why bring it up in this thread if you "dont wana talk about that subject or thread here"?
And I still want to know if you were threatening me.
Mayasunil said
Calling a woman.. a flirt .. ...Calling a woman.. a flirt .. is a negative comment or an insult or abuse????
tallg said
You weren't called a flirt, ...You weren't called a flirt, it was suggested that someone flirted with you. There's a difference.
And anyways, like you said in that thread; "flirting is fun".
Mayasunil said
I would warn anyone who wana ...I would warn anyone who wana abuse me on ma face.. thats what u did. I am a woman, but not a single.
i ddnt bring it here to discuss the thread. see yourself wht the post is about.
denbonggerald said
peace :) ..."Tell me who your friends are and I will tell you who you are"
brandylady said
its a negative comment ...women and men both flirt, it doesn't make them bad people, it certainly doesn't warrant abuse.
My thread was about community and some peoples inability to understand the meaning of the word.
Tallg, provocation is what keeps certain individuals going, hold your head up and rise above it :)
tallg said
Sorry brandy. Hijack over. ...Sorry brandy. Hijack over.

Thats again depends , ...Thats again depends , whether its bad or good brandy..
ya i was mentioning on someone who failed to understand it and started to humiliate a woman.
anyways, i can see whts goin on out here. am off
brandylady said
lol tallg ...no problem with the hijacking just thought you didn't need to rise to the bait :)
Mayasunil said

tallg said
You're right. I'm better ...You're right brandy. I'm better than that. And I feel ashamed that I just partook in exactly the thing this thread was rallying against. I'm going to PM qatari and ask him to ban me until I've learnt my lesson!
And I really wish I hadn't started it, cos now I'm scared I'm gonna end up in Hamad with all my limbs broken!
Gypsy said
Whatever you do tallg, don't ...Whatever you do tallg, don't flirt with her first, you might end up in the morgue.

MR PAUL said
Well she does warn yer all.... ..."I would warn anyone who wana abuse me on ma face.. thats what u did. I am a woman, but not a single."
So now what, shes gonna get her husband to come along and pick a fight ?
She started a hate topic against the Brits, so she deserves everything she got.

brandylady said
hehehe ...did you take a funny pill this morning???
I seriously laughed until I ached at your comment about having yourself banned, great stuff ;)
brandylady said
mayasunil ...your thread is long gone and forgotten, and most of the postings you got were a result of some of the unintelligent things you said, the number of answers isn't a guide to popularity

Mr Paul ...it seems that certain people use this site only to vent their anger and frustrations. They don't care who they insult, am sure most of them don't even know why they are angry.
Guidelines are for decent people to go by ;)

And whats with that thread again, Mayasunil, now you have to learn to forgive, forget and move on girl...and seriously, those comments of Not being alone, shouldnt be expressed in such a way on QL...
And who said anything about Flirts, what are they...? and how do they talk and play their game...can anyone tell...?

Respect for each other opinion is the key... ...definitely there will be difference in opinion and any provocateur will be dealt accordingly. Specially if the provocateur is hiding something in his/her profiles that doesn't seem to fit the level of argument being raised.
It's just like saying, on a common subject, a 40-year-old person will have a very distinct difference in opinion with a person half this age and sometimes it's that sense that provokes others.
It will be natural for gentlemen to treat a lady a little bit differently (in some ways or in some extent of leverage handling) but will not give the same treatment to a "bashing" same "bull" (expressions only, no offense intended).

I remember when I first got married my wife used to laugh at me every time I watched my teams play. If things weren't going well, I was just like the fan in the movie. It's a Philly thing.

Hi KSA ...sorry to upset the fragile equilibriam of QL, should have known some would use this thread as a vent again to get rid of their pent up frustrations,
Tallg had me laughing out loud though.
Now, flirting, well, you can flutter your eyelashes, smile sweetly and know that you don't need any lessons in flirting Mr K ;)
ksarat16 said
Uhhh Brandy ...I know shame on all of you making a wreck of a class when i m not there...
