STOP THE POINTS SYSTEM!!!

Fairly self-explanatory post.

It's causing problems and stopping people get along.

Oh, really? What a shame! :(

I much prefer it when there's a bit of mystery to someone.

Oh well, we'll just stick to QL, then.

Because I'm sure in real life you're a sweetheart! :)

I was only joking with a "right dodgy bunch"! In Ireland, that's a term of endearment.

LOL Jack - if you could have seen the lovely conviviality of yesterday then I am sorry you would be eating your hat, your words and some humble pie....

and Meet people... Hells Bells I think I had 12 scheduled to turn up yesterday and how many??? 25-30!!!

everyone met someone they hadn't met before and caught up with chums....now that is lovely!

and sorry to disappoint you...no-one dodgy...

except one guy has a very dodgy 2nd cousin but he lives on a different continent...so he told us ;)

I might tentatively suggest that you may have come to the wrong place if you want to meet people - unless you like sucking up to a few unworthy characters. This forum is a great soap opera, one in which YOU can be a character. But I don't think you want to meet any of the people behind the avatars. Right dodgy bunch! :)

My question remains. Easy to ignore, but I would like to join a group to start socialization in Doha. Open to group suggestions.

I am new to Qatar Living and trying to connect with people. I noticed that in order to join some social groups, you need points.

How do you get points? Point me in the right direction.LOL

Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I have 23,057,000 points now! Does it get me any vouchers for gin? Hic!

Its pointless to open a post for points but then we will get a point added as I just got one point

Jack is still fuming for not being accepted in the QLSG

sleep, perchance to dream...of points, lots and lots of points...as that is my reason for living...and moving to Qatar..

Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.

and that if its that important to them to end the points system that it makes them unhappy...geez...

and alexa...spent the better part of the night with hubby at the toyota place trying to get a slot to get car inspected...I'll have his tomorrow and will be absolutely on time..i promise!!

tasks to fulfill tomorrow...important ones?? hhhmmm...I am intrigued...

The point here is, brit, that someone pointed at the pointless point system of QL.

By qatarisun• 22 Sep 2008 00:18

absolutely argee Scarlett... I hope you didn't mean ME..

By Scarlett• 22 Sep 2008 00:14

I never notice how many points I have until someone mentions it to me...Anyone who takes it seriously needs to check their life to see if they have one...

I must point out that Its a point of principle to post to the forum and it would be pointless asking us to stop - said britexpat pointedly..

Thanks for the hint, PM, but I was joking, too. Just in case you didn't notice. Lol.

Never mind!

PM, it is not "pointless". It's just the opposite. You are gathering points!

Its like when you have a cut and a scab begins to cover it (because it's healing, yes?) and you keep picking and picking at it til it gets infected and then you leave it alone. But then start picking at it again. And the cycle continues?

The problems wont go away if people keep going on about them.
