I would like to apologise for hurting the russians?

[Decorum]

Dear mods, i would like to apologise if there are any hurt feelings

My heart sincerely goes out to the people of Ukraine and my heart
feels so much for them.

I may have been a Ukrainian in my previous life

Please reconsider your decision

Slava Ukraini and Majulah Singapura!

We should not let the Russians in the forum intimidate us.

Hello Decorum, the infraction will stay but please be more careful next time when you reply ok!

Hi Mods, please give me a satisfactory reply at least as to why my infraction stays?

https://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/...o-apologise-for-hurting-the-russians.6818066/
There are people out here in hardwarezone who supports putin’s actions of destroying Ukraine

Also, my comment was not an insult, its intended as a “what if” to point out the hypocrisy

Also, my postings are inside the pro-Ukrainian thread, i did not set out to confront others in russia thread

It's an offensive post to say someone is okie with russian raping civillian women. No? Hence your infraction will stay.

Please do report if you come across offensive post to us.

Thanks

I gave the warning because there is no need to bring in family being raped just because you disagree with their view.

It s not about what your view is but how you put it across.

you can put it across in a nicer manner, "look at the rape and destruction caused by the Russian in war, how would the pro russian folks feel if this were to happened in Singapore"

essentially the same point but without the family being raped because you have a different view

There is no need to refer to name calling like a** m* c*** s***** or putinmao to other members

As I said before, members who want to participate in such sensitive topics and think they can get away with using casual insults just because they are supporting some "larger cause" will continue to receive points liberally from us.

Generally for discussion forum, we try to not be over prescriptive about being on topic especially for a chit chat forum like EDMW, however in recent years, discussion topics in EDMW have turned more serious and correspondingly, there have been a more folks on both side who are very emotionally vested in such topics.
The 3 topics are namely pro and anti vaxxer, Sino US rivalry and Russo-Ukraine War.

generally we do not try to be too harsh on member chit chatting but again for those 3 topics, there is a tendency to degenerate into name calling other members instead of the topic content

4. so things like "Putinmao" and these kind of inflammatory posts where the intention is to discuss other members or rile up other members instead of discussing the thread topic, are not welcome

Thanks
