Look GPB,
I understand you own this thread, but it doesnt mean that it has
to be very lasting for more than 2 years or more or forever if u
wished it could be, but i think as long as everyone contributes
happily, I think this thread will still be very healthy. Which do
you prefer? A thread that is being kept alive by ppl who makes ONE
post once every month or a thread that contains intense discussion?
It is a forum for a reason, where everyone can discuss about their
opinion openly, and not being restricted by whatsoever. If you find
someone with strong opinions that they repeatedly voice out, let
them be, don't pinpoint and hurt others. In fact their opinions
could make other fellow forum contributors ponder about it and make
their own opinions.
I understand your frustrations that the thread is not going on
like what you expect it to be, but if you feel strongly abt
anything that has not been discussed lately, why not you initiate
you views now? No point blaming others not discussing it right?
Plus, things abt 969 and bus deployments, there wil obv be some
grey areas that will overlap thru mulitple threads, and would be
inconvenient for forum contributors to switch threads now and then
to see the discussed topic, and that is why some would choose to
discuss it here. Did you realise that the DTL2 rationalisation
thread is suddenly filled with BPJITH discussions? While i think it
is not really related to that thread per se, but as long as ppl r
willing to discuss, why stop them?
I joined the forum is to have a greater perspective about the
bus industry and learn more about it, so why stop ppl frm learning
more at the same time too?
I hope my tone isnt too condesending, but I hope that you could
can understand that it would be great that if you aren't too anal
abt who post what in which thread. In fact, you also contributed
well from what I observed (rmb that trash dove? Thou it could be
annoying but i find that it spiced up the thread a little), even
though there were some random posts here and there, just like what
I sometimes end up doing too. Don't worry too much OK? Just be nice
and ppl would be nice to you :)
Cheers ;)
PS Oh if u legit are thinking of going back (?) to Malaysia,
there are also a lot of interesting buses to spot haha
And I would have seen the forum nearly dead nowadays if not for
the active contributions of forumers...the era is changing and they
are right not to stick to just that one thread one topic principle;
it is not going to help if they refused to change.
