Ok, here is the thing...
I have been in South Korea for a couple of months now and have been reading this forum for a little over a month... I came here thinking it was a support forum... Boy, was I mistaken!
I really don't understand some of the people here - why are you such haters?
Why do you have to call other people idiots and other names without a reason and make others sound bad. Aren't we supposed to be understanding and supportive of each other? What is your problem? Can't find a better way to express yourselves than insulting others?
This is just a forum where people share their experience.
You are all supposed to be educated people, right?
Please, any haters are welcomed to explain their behavior here!
Or anyone who feels and thinks the same way as I do, please, join the discussion! |

This is why you are questioning the perceived attitude of the fine individuals here at Dave's. What you are witnessing is frustration manifesting itself in the form of conversations via posting and typing.
Yes, there is some semi hate-filled rhetoric that passes in the night on this board, but there's a real good reason for it. I am far from immune to the frustrations of living in this country. This is what you are seeing.
Give it some time. 2 months is a joke in relation to the big picture. Keep smiling. |

Welcome to ESL Korea! You are not off in your observation, btw. |

| I visit a couple other forums and this is one of the tamer ones. Honestly I don't care that much of what kind of insults are hurled here. |

Have never met so many smart-asses in real life!
Maybe because I am a pretty girl and everybody just tries to be nice around me.
I just wonder if all of these haters here would be so straightforward face to face? |

| I agree with you OP. There are some trolls here. The Grammar Police are worse. The only thing you can really do is ignore it. They take their anger from the real world out on people here, because they're too chicken to do it to anyone in person. |

| The 8pp thread on Foreigners not greeting each other in Korea, appears to have been removed by moderators tonight. Kinda reinforces the OP's point, n'est ce pas? |

Have the people from this forum ever had a group meeting or something just to see who is who? Would be fun!
Whose face would you want to see?
I would really want to see Morning Star's face - the #1 hater (in my opinion) of the forum! |
