3 days and I'm out of this bizarre world!!!!!! Anyone else leaving this place? How long do you have and what are your feelings?

I'm pretty excited, still a little hesitant to leave because I like it a lot, however I have promising opportunities awaiting me!!!!

Does this mean you won't be reporting every other post you find offensive to the mods anymore?

I've reported posts that are obviously racist and counter productive to the discussion at hand. Wow.... a poster who cares, imagine that.

lol.... well Korea will always be here so that's a comforting thought. Hopefully circumstances won't be that bad to where I'll be returning before I finish school.

I finish my contract in less than two weeks (3 more work days if I count the holiday we have next week).

I am very excited!

I am headed home for my sister's wedding and then back to Korea to sort of kick around until my fiance finishes his contract in October.

...but at least I will be finished with my hagwon!

Very Happy

If you have been ratting people out to the mods, then we'll be glad
to see the back of you. We don't need scumbag traitors in Korea.
We have enough problems with xenophobia, Korean (in)justice and
other such problems.

And if you have picked up the cowardly habit of ratting people out,
then you should keep in mind that back in western countries you could
be picking up your teeth off the floor for such actions.

Just a friendly reminder Wink

I can count on one hand how many times I've done it in the two years I've been here. And I don't apologize for it. We're all here for the benefit of others in Korea and to express how we feel about it. If someone spews racist hatred then I have no problem clicking the exclamation point.

As for what you think of me cohiba, I really couldn't care less.

So reporting people to the mods for violating the rules of this forum makes one a scumbag traitor? I wasn't aware that the mods were on one side and we were on the other. Rolling Eyes

I can see though that if one wishes to post racist garbage on this forum how one could have such a viewpoint.

As for the OP...good luck in any future endeavours.

It's one thing to report obvious trolls and racist posts, and another thing to report obvious jokes/pranks that have absolutely nothing to do with the above.

I've been here for 6 years, and I have 7 days left.

I'm not exactly thrilled about leaving, but I know it is time. However, I don't rule out the possibility that I'll be back.
