NOTHING NEGATIVE PLEASE!!!

It has come to my attention that some of us, (cough cough) mainly me, have been "China Bashing"(sic) and that we have not done enough to promote the goodness and richness that we have experienced in China. So I would like to start a new thread where people can talk about the good things in China, it doesn't have to be long or too detailed, just visit once a day and tell us something good that happened to you... hopefully "those" who monitor this site will see that the expats who truly call China HOME are not just "crossing" (whatever that means?) over....

A good thing that happened to me today..

umm I helped an old lady cross the road after waiting for the Green light and she was happy enough to say "thank you!" in English!

no hard feelings Gurrang

You are being very unfair

You are being very unfair Gurrang Gurrang, you who haven't even being bothered to check my email to understand why your title ( not your post) has been edited.
Plus, if you look at the situation carefully, you would have noticed that your title has not been edited straight away. It's only when I received several complaints ( mostly form foreigners... how strange) that I decided to do so.
I have been running this site for 4 years and it's very very rare that I edit or delete anything.
Now I would like to get back to my work :)
Thanks,
JJ

One word:

Thankyou

JJ, if I have upset you, it

JJ, if I have upset you, it was not my intention.. I have many emails and one I use for this site is hardly ever checked. I started this thread to show that I was sincere about my love for China! I have every good intention in this thread.. SORRY IF YOU THINK I AM COMING ACROSS AS BEING SARCASTIC!!!

@telverry, handshake accepted, .. :-)

Please guys do not misunderstand.. the idea of forums is to share with people thoughts and feelings about subjects which mean something to us. I WELCOME ANY STORY THAT PEOPLE WISH TO SHARE ABOUT THE GOOD THINGS THAT HAVE HAPPENED TO THEM RECENTLY! ;-)

locking the previous thread

locking the previous thread was really needed? If I came across as being racist or being too one sided, I am sorry, my wife is also Chinese and she too can use a toilet, perhaps next time you make changes you may want to drop a line in the forum itself, as most of us would then take notice. I will keep it clean from now on... I do not want to make people angry...

JJ, the bend over comment

JJ, the bend over comment was not directed at you. I enjoy your site, I have been surfing it on and off for many years as well... easy come easy go as they say!

Oh BTW I just checked my

Oh BTW I just checked my emails and I have not received an email from you... perhaps you could send it again, please?

hahaha I just went down

hahaha I just went down stairs to buy some eggs and sadly I say some person allowed their child to urinate in the elevator... suffice to say I was not happy.. but I am not going to rant on this site instead I am closing my account and switching to another site!! thank you and good bye!

I am not angry at all

I am not angry at all Gurrang Gurrang. But you are being unfair by saying that I am too harsh in monitoring this site
Yes, you are right: I should have a clearer policy about monitoring this website... but as I said, in the past 4 years it has happened so rarely that I did not think it was necessary.
But from now on I will: if I edit or delete anything, users will be kindly informed.
I still think there is no big deal: your post was not altered nor deleted. Just the title which unfairly included my wife and your wife :) Shame cos some of the points in your post I agree with.
But anyway, no point for me to carry on... you have closed your account already. Well goodbye then.
Monster JJ

JJ, briefly had to check the

JJ, briefly had to check the access to the site as my wife''s account was being blocked for some reason (don't know),.. water under the bridge mate.. next I see you I will buy you a beer and give you a hug! I will continue to surf the site for all the useful information etc that this site has to offer... no hard feelings! I took no offense was only hoping to have a juicy conversation but you were right, this is perhaps not the best place to do that! Take care!

I miss the prices.

I miss the prices. Absolutely shocking back in the US. Cost me $60 to fill up my car today.

Landlord emailed my wife to say he rented out the apartment in Zhuhai.

I'm S.O.L. :(
