Please define credible source. Is it only those from 154 har :o :o

Be discerning of sources regardless of where they are from

And definitely take with a pinch of salt “advice”/“news” from smart alecs in this forum, especially those who likes to make sweeping statement

If you let them guide you, it’s akin to getting your pet dog’s advice on how to fix your wifi =:p

Could you kindly point me in the right direction? I might not have come across it - A thread link or post link or user in question would help.

One of the key differences might be importance of the subject matter at hand along with whether something said is an opinion versus spreading false information.

This is just my preliminary input.

Thanks.

Why is replaced talent not banned for the allegations as serious as latest announcement?

Mod/admin, please put up new sticky advising EDMWers to stop posting and bumping threads made by that siao lang online troll using multiple clone accounts.

Ignore the troll, and he/she will stop.

Don't understand why some EDMWers bump the thread and quote the troll some more. :s22:

I thought about creating PSA thread ask ppl not to quote, bump thread. But then I worry that brings even more attention to the troll. So posting on this sticky thread for mod/admin to take appropriate action.

Alert: do avoid Hendon Camp; understand that there's first case of *suspected* Wuhan pneumonia reported from here this morning

Morning All, some important information from my wife working in National Centre for infectious Diseases (NCID) at TTSH.

Please avoid to go TTSH or KKH (below 16 years old)

If ever need to see dr in hospital, please do opt for NUH or Private hospital. They’ll be sending China/Wuhan Patients to this 2 Hospital. If possible, wear mask at all times.

Please take care and stay safe.

Managed to find a quote of it. Thread is closed and deleted. However user is not banned

As titled and I believe this is quite self explanatory in the face of what's happening in the world right now.

Spreading inaccurate or false information is incredibly irresponsible.

You will not only go against HWZ and SPH rules, but that of the Singapore law.

Be responsible or face the consequences.

Thank you.

How about registering all current and future users of forum by their NRIC? I support...

Account ban is the only outcome from our end.

What the authorities can and will do, that's up to the court to decide, so we can't exactly dictate that, but yes, up to the maximum punishments set aside for contravening such laws is possible.

only result in ban???? :s11::s8:

nvr fall foul to the PROTECTION FROM ONLINE FALSEHOODS
AND MANIPULATION ACT 2019 ???

no police follow up since fake news can caused panic unnecessary :(
