QATAR LIVING

By so_coool

Qatar living was established to make life of resident in Qatar more easy and more flexible! Means they could ask whatever they face and whatever they have in their mind just ask it and other ppl will answer those question!!
Who agree and who disagree that Qatar living is not doing what it should do? And what it was establish for?
Anybody can see any other thing that Qatar living can provide/do/create/establish?
For example ppl who make threads about Indians and about Qatari, Arabs, British, Afghani.... or whatever the nationality is, showing only the bad face of those nations why don't U (QATAR LIVING) make ppl talk to each other and understand each other make all these nation melt inside Qatar loving each other giving an example of how can diff nation live and love each other....

I think we're forgetting a very important word here called "moderation". This SHOULD be a community site, embracing all of different races, creeds, and status. And if all were civilized enough, they could just get along. But given the fact that most people (myself included) are fame-hungry inglorious bastards with no respect to others feelings, we don't deserve such freedom. But then again, if all websites banned people for being insensitive, no traffic/money can be generated. Sad... but true (thank you James Hetfield!)

This is a platform where people can get information about many things in Qatar, beacuse of the fact that the views/ comments posted here are originated from various people who have experienced life in Qatar (I do agree that perception vary from person to person & culture). However, I believe that the informations given here are latest and current. But there are quite a few persons who consider this site as a chat room and some utilize it for religious bashing and racial discrimination i.e. posting threads targeting certain nationalities / community and enjoying the rest of the show....

"But so does BOXING, FOOTBALL, RUGBY, WRESTLING .. lets Bann them all if entertainment is not wht you see in it..." you may be right my friend. But all these are done by professionals with years of training. On the contrary, a 16 year old kid debating the existence of God, unless he's really really smart, is just a street fight when compared to professional boxing. And street fights should definitely be banned!

I seek entertainment . . .

I find in abundance...

Religious bashing gives Bruises.. agreed...

But so does BOXING, FOOTBALL, RUGBY, WRESTLING .. lets Bann them all if entertainment is not wht you see in it...

Keep the effort!

It's a messed up world my friend. The internet is a sesspool of filth & degradation, and people seem to like it for that reason. Information is only secondary. You can't argue with human nature. Just look at the rediculous amount of religious bashing here on QL. If I didn't know better, I'd think that every muslim, christian & jew on QL is a religious scholar.

But on the upside, I like this Religious Teachings group for all the fanatics to bash each others heads in and leave others who just want to talk regular stuff alone!

it is in Ones hand........check-in what you want and logout, when you see its getting nasty and useless; Utilise your limited precious time produtive areas rather wasting on unnecessary bashings, which could not give any results at the end.

i didnt mention nationalitties and one of the reason i wrote this thread is ppl stop talking about each other ...

when i wrote stupid i wrote (stupid) means from my point of view only ... it could be gr8 issue for the person who wrote that thread ...

my thread is GENUINE again from my point of view and i am not trying to make anything to make other ppl just write to fill pages i have been (READING) in qatar living threads since one years almost this thread is for QL ppl who serve this site and maybe they can find some good ideas that pop out from this thread...

peace out.

i think ur opinion is not true if the internet was created for bashing & porn then they should close it immediately

By phoenix2009• 29 Oct 2009 12:58

socool, i think by pointing on active people on your thread you're trying to show that your thread has a genuine value, i think then you should, as you are trying to do, run the thread in better way, try not to be offensive, try not to mention nationalities and names claiming that others' threads are "stupid"

you're making this thread looks stupid.

i like the idea of chat rooms, yet it's up to the creators of this site to decide it's road map.

chatting rooms serve different targets and have their major defaults.

QL is really being the right choice to the right society.

I like it as it is and wouldn't recommend any change.

peace out.

Yalla!

Bashing is the reason the Internet was created (that & porn ofcourse). Most people here want to be controversial and rude coz it gets them noticed. Right or wrong, that's just the way online networking is (a medium for otherwise timid & introvert people to be extrovert and something they're not in real life, hence all the different accounts made in QL).

Soo cool I agree with u ,and i think the topic or a question or thread, should be not against any nation and has to be something to add it to your knowledge and have a benefit and goal u wanted to tell people. Not a nonsense and only to insult other people and stupid question.

By so_coool• 29 Oct 2009 10:57

all wat u mentioned was true wat we were talking about is to improve those benefits and increase the value of the site ...

Serves the purpose. Bought and sold a lot of things on QL. Met a lot of people through QL of all Nationalities and back grounds.

Get my answer to many questions instantly.

Get to know what is happening in Qatar and the issues.

Get to have a laugh when I need one on QL.

So generally very satisfied with QL.

But some Qlers recently have created a mess, I have been around QL for long time to say that QL as a whole is definately serving it's purpose.

Simple advice so_cool, try not to mention Nationalities in Thread, sure it will generate a reaction from some.

very satisfied with QL

when i wanted a car i found and bought one.

when i want to chat i do!

i didn't even bother looking in all the potentials of QL. for me, it's only forum, main forum. no visits to the other forums, adds, questions,...

i want chat, i get chat!

Oh, people can come up with statistics to prove anything, Kent. 14% of people know that.

very very good move. taking away the fight between unknowns hiding behind avatars claiming defending attorney to god(s).

should be the same with the racists stereotyping nationalities.

Sites like QL are fantastic source of info'. Had sites like this been available when I came here, I would have have gone in better informed, there's no doubt about that.

QL is a great medium for identifying facts about Qatar and educating us all (within the specific subject matter threads), whether good or bad factual content. It's the factual debate and information gathering that follows on from this that helps most people to form their own conclusions.

But also QL, where necessary, could be a very powerful means of bringing people together, to act as a lobby group. But only if they are willing to do so based on the facts presented.

Bashing Indian/Arab/western is highlight of the forum. But who is bashing?? most of them are religious maniacs. They should be ignored.

as far as information is concerned, comparing google and QL is stupid.

UNITY in diversity is possible, however majority of the people looking at QL for solution and get it 100% succesfully......

Rest of the people who are on QL for passing time (like me) discussing for fun (jobless or no work in office or at home).....

Chill, cool....In our hearts, we all are ONE, which we don't confess in Public ;-)

By the way this same topic (I mean changing QL for good) has been discussed in QL several times before, and "not so long ago" user SMOKE had some comments about this look forward changes in a thread with quite some comments/suggestions from the people participating. I do not know how did it end but maybe a search could enlightnen you.

GALLOPER i can suggest some things that QL ppl can do to make this site grow in the correct direction as u or he or any QL user can do also ... the idea is who is taking those suggestion and who is following them ? are they capable to do these suggestion or not?

one good suggestion for me and for other ppl i think is to open a chat room for those who want to talk about British ppl drinking too much or Indians shaking there heads ...or wat ever selly subject that they want to open (i am sorry saying selly but for me it is it could be very important for other ) this can get all ppl involved in QL from all ages and all nationalities as DRACOLLA mentioned in his comment ...

this is one suggestion and there are a lot of other good that can improve this site to more and more success ...

i will appreciate if ppl from QL involve in this conversation and plz announce ur self as wat ever u are in Qatar living site family so we know with whom we are talking and wat things u can do ??!!

QL is a site successful bcaz of bashers, like BriteExpt, UkEng, Richierich, Alexa,Bajesus, GIASI, super7,Hasmuk,QaQc and many more like them.These ppl are only showing muscles in QL otherwise they are nothing but some Maniacs tired from their rude life.

It's serving its purpose but agreeded things do get out of control and quite frankly Mods can do better job, i would less worry about deleting if someone body by error posted a classified as form than blocking people who abuse or try to flame situations

i feel some of the old users gets away with it and modes should not hesitate to ban if required

and your proposal is??

I mean what have you visioned that QL should go into to make it for a change (to improve). Can you list your options??

And at this time I would back up FS & Dracula, QL is what people has made it to be.

You want some canges then come forward with the proposal. Let's see it.
