Hi, I have been one interested reader of the recent proceedings. It is the holidays! too bored, therefore read junk mail.:) I think that i have to agree with one of the mails saying that only interested parties are the target group. I am inclinced to think(I have done a undergrad mkting program, but just my humble opinions) that the majority(95%) of the ppl that subscribled to the forum, are interested parties. However, buyers just have one purpose, to hunt for a gd price and not to engage in an argument. They would not be sending insults or take sides in this forum but silently appreciating the thought that hui has put into her ads. as for the remaining 5%,( me included), we are not looking to buy anything, therefore, our preferences are not in line with the silent majority because after all, this is a forum for buying and selling. As we get irritated because such sales caused us much inconvience, we voice out our opinion. Wrong arguments i think and worse when abuse is used. I agree with you Manjari, that this forum has many shortcomings and is not perfect, just as no other advertising medium is. thats my piece. happy hols guys, take it easy. _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com

Going through the recent proceedings,I have to give my humble opinion.whatever it is worth.
It is true that Thiaga (if he did it truly) has found the wrong way to get even with Mun Yui or whoever who sent multiple for sale mails.
But let us go back to the very beginning.A very good place to start.
Mun Yui wanted to sell 15 items for ,let us say 15 different customers.So she sent 15 different emails.These emails will be read by hundreds of international students,which logically means ,only around 5% of students will benefit from her innovative advertising strategy.The remaining 95% of students(me included) found her strategy irritiating and a waste of time(having to delete 15 unwanted mails).
But she defended herself,with more innovative strategies outside of advertising.Thiaga,it seems is not as tolerant like us.He could not resist from voicing his opinion.He had taken the initial step that most others were not ready to take.That is ,to stand up and say bravely,what most people wanted to say to Mun Yui to her face bluntly.Kudos to him for that.Also,it brought out to light problems with emailing lists and ways to deal with it.let us take it as a lesson in future.
For the rest,it is crap.Stop it guys.
have a calmer year ahead.
cheers!!
