DON'T BOTHER READING THIS THREAD, IT'S JUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF 'LUDWIG' SPINNING OUT OF CONTROL!

I have never heard of a university in either of these locations, and no such institutions appear on the 2004 Mainland University intake list at least.

Are you sure they are not just technical colleges (or even boarding schools) that refer to themselves as universities in their recruitment literature (in very much the same way many training centres refer to themselves as schools)?

Furthermore, do you even begin to possess the qualifications that are now required to secure employment in a Chinese higher education establishment? Since you yourself have never undergone any higher education it is somewhat tricky and nettlesome to ascertain what, exactly, you could possibly offer a university student.

I am convinced that you suffer from a personality disorder, however since I myself am not perfect I will excuse your ignorance (on 2 accounts) and your vitriol.

Oh, by the way, do you remember this?

''Teacher' Lindsay', if you could place your armchair forensic psychology (and salient paranoia) to one side for a moment you may be able to see a question that should be blazing in neon lights in your mind: If these 'universities' are prepared to offer 'university' posts to someone who themselves has never been to university, what sort of 'universities' can they really actually be?

Furthermore, why are these 'universities' located out in the great industrial wastelands?

Hmmm. I don't have any experience dealing with people suffering from psychological disorders.

Hey TalkDoc, are you out there? Can you provide some advice?

Should I ignore Ludwig, humour him himself or try to communicate with him himself in the same fashion that I would communicate with a normal person?

Cheers

''Preacher' Lindsay', it is a very simple question (though I can see why you would seek to divert and attempt to re-route attention elsewhere).

What, exactly, could you - as someone who has never attended university - offer university undergraduates anywhere in the world (most of whom at 20 will already be vastly more qualified than yourself)?

''Preacher' Lindsay', with your clear problem at accepting any advice it is worth taking a moment to ponder what, exactly, the motivation could be on your part for 'contributing' to a discussion forum.

Furthermore, this is a jobs-related forum (for adults), not an amateur psychology diagnosis forum (for lay ex-insurance salesmen). My question - unlike yours - relates directly to the general theme; viz., qualifications and their application in the search for employment in China.

To repeat the elementary question: What, exactly, could you - as someone who has never even attended university - possibly ever begin to offer university undergraduates anywhere in the world? The question stems from an interest in and concern for any potential students; not from any desire to attack you.

In addition, what sort of 'universities' do you think would offer posts to a candidate to whom a TESOL certificate is considered an instance of 'higher education'?

Perhaps you could appeal to your sage 'Talkdoc' for an answer to these questions, too.

''Teacher' Lindsay', I understand that it must be somewhat disappointing to discover that the 'universities' that offered you employment are, in fact, most likely nothing other than agricultural colleges attached to slaughter houses out in the no-mans-land of radioactive industrial China, but I fail to see how trolling here on this forum will help you.

Ludwig, with your clear problem of accepting that you have a personality disorder it is worth taking a moment to ponder what, exactly, you think is the benefit for anyone of your 'contributing' to a discussion forum.

Furthermore, this is a jobs-related forum (for adults), not an amusement forum (for psychologically disturbed persons). My question - unlike yours - relates directly to whether you should be asking any questions of anyone on this forum.

To repeat the elementary question: What, exactly, could you - as someone who is obviously suffering from a personality disorder - do or say that would in any way, shape or form make me feel that I must answer to you?

The question stems from an interest in and concern for helping you to shed your egocentric beliefs; not from any desire to attack you.

In addition, what hope is there that you will one day recognize the folly of your ways if logically-thinking contributors such as myself do not constantly remind you that the vast majority of your contributions to this forum are unwelcome by a majority of contributors.

Perhaps you could consult 'Talkdoc' for counseling in respect of overcoming your problems, too.

Ludwig, I understand that it must be somewhat disappointing to discover that you are held in such low regard by many people, but I fail to see how trolling here on this forum will help you (i.e. replying to a thread for the purpose of serving your ego rather than directly answering the posted question).

''Teacher' Lindsay', it is not clear why, exactly, you reduce everything to personal insults. My question is quite simple and relates to educational and employment standards. What could you - as someone who has never been to university - ever begin to offer university undergraduates (let alone post-graduates) anywhere in the world (other than that which you gained through being exposed to English as a child)?

'Windsorman1972', on behalf of the forum, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for yet another thoughtful, perceptive, and constructive post. We are very fortunate indeed to have you around. Your posts are, after all, so intellectually stimulating.

'Linz', is this a 'wind-up'? You ask whether or not China has "quarentene [sic] laws". .... Is it just me or are you totally naive?

.... but a small sample.

I have stated several times in the past and I will state again now; Ludwig you have a reading comprehension problem.

Are you, as a speaker of English as a second language, jealous?

''Teacher' Lindsay', do you really have so little to do?

Actually, English is a common language in South Africa and I am a childhood bilingual.

''Teacher' Lindsay', do you really have so little to do?

Yes. Until the end of this month I'm stuck in a little s h i t h o l e of a town called Yunlong (and if you like a challenge Ludwig, try to find this place on any map).

It's a 45 minute combination motorcycle & bus ride from the nearest city; the last 'return' bus departs at 6:00 pm daily.

The novelty of experiencing (to paraphrase Roger) the "genuine" China wore off about 2 months ago.

So, there you have it Ludwig. The reason for my erratic postings on this forum (Jeckyl & Hyde was how Johnslat described them) is nighttime boredom and pent up energy.

What's your excuse?

Cheers
