a poster wrote to me,
"Furthermore, if your employer actually considered all the nonsense you post here, my guess is that you would be out of a job. You're lucky you haven't been found out."

keep posting. at least 25% of the stuff you post is useful.

the other 75% could be interpreted annoying but peoples' reaction to it is funny.

it's amazing how much a bunch of 72 year old women can get their panties in a bunch about what someone ELSE does in their spare time.

RR I like your posts and keep them coming. I guess some don't understand that this is an open forum where all ideas are welcome as long as they aren't malicous. Some of the back biting can be fun don't get me wrong, but it is usually don't with some humor and exceptence of the others idea.

I do like a lot of your posts and think that many are useful/informative. You go over board sometimes.

Do you have a job RR????

Is it a statistical analyst??

If that is so they should give you a raise because you are good at that.

Seriously though, how is this a threat to your job?????

I don't know aforememntioned poster but seriously i think he needs to get a bit of a life.

RR, you can be a bit repetitive but I do read some of what you post and it is useful and interesting.

He's a kyopo. Frankly, I would brush off any barb coming from a kyopo on this board right now, given all the external influences at the moment.

Okay, Chronic has been here a lot longer and would know better than me, but why is it that I recall him saying he was Chinese? Like, Chinese-Australian or something... You're not stretching the definition of "kyopo" here, are you?


EDIT: Oh yeah, forgot to chime in. Threat, but keep on posting. And as far as "threat" goes, what exactly is this? "I'm going to find out who you are and where you work, and then I'm going to tell your Korean boss on you"? Haa!! So what and who cares?!!! Very Happy

I'm sure there are plenty of crap bosses out there, but what's with this attitude I hear from so many posters that everyone's boss here spends his/her whole life lurking about, dagger at the ready, just waiting for the right moment to pounce?! Rolling Eyes

"I'm gonna tell your boss on you! Mad" <-- Laughing Laughing Laughing hyuk, hyuk, hyuk!!!!!!

What the hell, RR, why not keep posting? If you can't be yourself, who can you be? And you definitely have a certain style about you. (Though in my opinion, rather than appearing like a NEXIS/LEXIS server, it'd be interesting to see what your take on the news you seem to harvest is.) Smile

Maybe we might be talking about different people. The poster in question has said in the past that he is from the US, gets curiously defensive about anything remotely ambiguous that RR posts about Korea, and his username is that of a common Kyopo name. I'm reaching, but looking at the ingredients, I'm leaning in the direction of Korean-American. And for the record, I have no problem with that, but with hightened cross-culture stuff going on elsewhere, I'd wouldn't lose a lot of sleep over those remarks right about now.

RR, I read the Korea Times almost every day, so I find often your newsy posts to be redundant. I agree with the suggestion made by other posters that you should post whatever you want, but make some editorial comment or take a position that helps us relate to you, or encourages dialogue.

If you stop posting, that would reduce the number of people I can easily make fun of. If you, Derrek/Gollum, and Osangrl all left, I'd have no metaphorical fish for my metaphorical barrel to shoot at.
