Qatar Living.com,,,is this website becoming an addictive platform for you? for me it is, lolz. nice place for socializing by sharing opinions and suggestions. Moreover it is like a newspaper for me :) what do u think of it?
there must be a reason of why they are oppssed...!! and my opinion is that if any1 whenever cme with new id he/she must inform other qlers that he/she is the same person.... but again this is QL ppl aren't ready to show there nationality thn how they will show there old ID's....
mr_qatar said "... and again we can make it like before but some of the old Qlers need to be active again like before.. hope they pik my point about whom i am saying...."
Yeah, but quite a number of QLers have different (or several) monikers ... don't quite know who's who anymore. I suppose some have had to change IDs ... cos got "Oopsed!" :p
My God, I never thought this would happen as a result of a simple forum topic. I feel really sorry for all this stuff.
wake up all of u, what happened????, can't u guys be friendly with each other, why do u hold so much hatred in ur hearts. we are all humans first, everything else comes after that. I won't contribute to this forum anymore. I am so disappointed.............. :(
Our BBQ group is the best we have people of all caste creed and religion and get on well with each other its some people with Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Syndrome and narrow minded like Sigmund and noemi who have spoiled QL
I am so sad that QL is not as it was. I miss the old QL. Yet I still hang around in the hope that quality QLers will return or new ones will join.
I have much to be thankful to QL for. It kick started my social circle, and I have met and indeed retain some very good friends from it. I found my first accommodation through it, and learned so much to help me settle in here from it as well.
However the current trend is nationality bashing, hate, and religious rantings. I don't know what the solution is, and don't know what caused the decline, I just hope it will one day return to its former glory.
Yes what happened to all the funny posts? Too many people here are easily offended and what to tell others what is right and what they should be doing.
To them I say only this.
You have the right to be offended. You don't have the right to never be offended
they play with human psychology, and when they post such things they knew it will catch the attention and people will be bound to respond as a result of anger and hurt. they do it for the sake of fun and try to criticize others, and in an attempt to hide their own weaknesses they exhibit an uneducated behavior. We can not excel in controlling our emotional drive for the reason that we are humans, in one way or another we get emotional at some point of time. that's why we can not stop ourselves to respond when someone try to become judgmental on such platform which is used by multiple nationals.
In terms of management science, every product has a life cycle. There is a crescendo and a decresendo. In order for a product to survive the test of time, it must be, update on a constant basis. Even Facebook is not as much fun as it used to be just a couple of years ago, even though the company is in constant development. How many of you know about MIRC? Does anyone use it? Where are the public chatrooms of msn and yahoo messenger? It is a viber and whatapp time today. They are in there heyday right now. If this site has to survive, it has to grow with the growing technology. Otherwise, like any other product resisting change, it is destined to decline.
Birdee, then why is it that Q'lers Still Respond to their Posts??? Some don't but majority do reply to their comments, knowingly that it will instigate them to Start Bashing nationality, race, & even religion.....
I think these kind of ppl are Close Minded Souls.....
now thats the point birdee.. sometime it becomes very difficut to tolerate coz they start discussing and posting comments about other religions & about which they dont knw anythng.. and sometime they comes up with totally irrelevant topics which have nothing to do with Qatar or Qlers, just to hit specific nationalities....
so I would call them attention seekers. they don't do it to gain respect rather just to grab attention. and tell u what if u don't respond to their crap they would be left more frustrated, lolz that's my formula to deal with such people. but I know it is a difficult thing to do bcz it calls for our anger and tempt us to respond.
yes I have also noticed some people who are constantly nagging others for their nationalities but I guess such people have nothing positive to contribute, so let them speak of their rubbish stuff, which is not going to buy them any respect from other members. every community has a mix of people and we have to live with that, Look for the positives and ignore the crap. I found this platform helpful specially for those who are new to doha, I mean new arrivals like me, lolz ;P
Couple of Years back QL used to be a Informative Site, with lots of Discussions on Open Forum, but Currently QL has become a Site for Q'lers who like to Bash certain Nationality & more over i don't think QL is Addictive to be honest...

Take heart, Birdee. It was indeed a lovely thread you started and an interesting one too.
My God, I never thought this would happen as a result of a simple forum topic. I feel really sorry for all this stuff.
wake up all of u, what happened????, can't u guys be friendly with each other, why do u hold so much hatred in ur hearts. we are all humans first, everything else comes after that. I won't contribute to this forum anymore. I am so disappointed.............. :(
Some people just have the habit to intellectualize everything. Get a life people.
Our BBQ group is the best we have people of all caste creed and religion and get on well with each other its some people with Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Syndrome and narrow minded like Sigmund and noemi who have spoiled QL
Indeed TCOM. And of course I have to credit you as being one of the old school QLers who like me still rattle around in here hoping to see a revival.
All this because we have so many people with wee brains who criticize based on caste creed or religion.
I am so sad that QL is not as it was. I miss the old QL. Yet I still hang around in the hope that quality QLers will return or new ones will join.

QL is dying due to trolls and multiple IDs who have Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Syndrome.
they play with human psychology, and when they post such things they knew it will catch the attention and people will be bound to respond as a result of anger and hurt. they do it for the sake of fun and try to criticize others, and in an attempt to hide their own weaknesses they exhibit an uneducated behavior.
