endure Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 I usually say 'contact the magazine' because I've had emails and web addresseserased from my posts before an I'm not sure it won't happen again. I'm hoping anyone with any feedback at all will pick up the mag and look at the contact info. All the email comes to me. So do the phone calls. The reason that email and web addresses have been deleted from your posts is because they're not permitted by forum rules. If people want to contact you on Thaivisa they should use the Private Message (PM) facility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't bother the bloke has done a runner with other people's money! "Kon KRU" - that smaks of slander and libel. Amazing to me that this kind of thing seems to be allowed on this forum. Yes, there is an unpaid bill at the printer (no, not good), and a couple places paid for ads for a magazine I - at least - have not seen yet... but I have been informed that a new issue is out. I do not know who is distributing it, or where, or why people prefer to be so negative about something free which does not diminish things for them in any way and might even add something to their lives... but I certainly hope moderators will put a stop to illegal messages here.

Joel Barlow Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Information is that the new CR magazine is available at Silver's Bed and Breakfast - advertised in the old magazines (near Ban Du I think, but am not sure). The magazine wants/needs a new manager (willing to work for small pay) - but I fear the work would be great and the frustrations large! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrOzark Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Hello all, Yes, I believe Silver has the magazines today and a couple of good friends are helping with distribution. Northstar B&B #1 is just over the bridge (your first real left) on the way to Bandu, but still basically in town. I've sent a message to KonKru to clear up his comment - let's see if he responds. Thanks for your support, Joel. Although you are not as handsome as myself, you have some great qualities.... Yes, the mag needs a manager. Someone stable and reliable and likes the idea of the job. They would basically be someone good at dealing with Thai culture and work style able to manage the monthly distribution and follow up on sales. Probably someone married to a Thai person and living in this area and planning to die here. Hopefully not soon - the death part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumbojumbo Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 (edited) Hello all,Yes, I believe Silver has the magazines today and a couple of good friends are helping with distribution. Northstar B&B #1 is just over the bridge (your first real left) on the way to Bandu, but still basically in town. Would this be the 1/2 Jan/Feb issue promised in mid Jan or the almost finished month of Mar/April issue or the missing Oct issue. Ozark, you had a good idea in the beginning, but you never followed though like promised. Originally you promised your advertisers 5000 issues monthly. 3000 for here, 1000 for CM, and a 1000 in Patters. If this was ever followed through, and i had a business, i would of halve thought of using u. Everyone (not all) here is defending you here, but excuse me, i have to call foul. Yes, the mag needs a manager. Someone stable and reliable and likes the idea of the job. They would basically be someone good at dealing with Thai culture and work style able to manage the monthly distribution and follow up on sales. Probably someone married to a Thai person and living in this area and planning to die here. Hopefully not soon - the death part. Why would anyone take over your mag as manager?? Anyone can start there own, just as you did, and don't have to carry the baggage. I don't think anyone will because of the history of Communithai. Sorry, but some things have to be said to set the record straight. Edited March 24, 2007 by Jai Dee quote limits corrected for clarity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrOzark Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 (edited) Mumbo, From an online dictionary: ================ mum·bo jum·bo or mum·bo-jum·bo (mum'bo-jum'bo) pronunciation n., pl. -bos or -bos. 1. Unintelligible or incomprehensible language; gibberish. 2. Language or ritualistic activity intended to confuse. ================ You'd like to be able to set the record straight, but you're living up to your name instead. As for the moderators of this thread: Why don't you have any rules against slander? This person is able to say that 5,000 copies were never printed when in fact they were and he didn't even contact the printers to find out. As I've said before, this forum is not taken seriously by anyone I know, but you should try to maintain some level of integrity. Any level. Erasing emails and URL's doesn't really count. You have to understand that hosting a thread doesn't only mean covering your butt legally. There is a social responsibility you have here whether you are aware of it or not. When I originally saw the destructive and cynical element run free on this forum, I spoke with everyone in town (CR) I knew about TV. The consensus was that no one really takes it seriously and that people with too much time on their hands sit and chit chat/jibber jabber all day because they have nothing else to do. Looking at CR TV, more carefully, I found this to be basically true and stopped any real involvement and interest using the forum as a real community service. But, as I admitted to Limbo, none of us know how tough it is to run a forum unless we've done it ourselves. When it comes to community, most people have good intentions but are quite naive about what the dynamics are. With most people as idle lemmings, their right hand holding the remote and left hand holding a beer, a destructive element need not be large to be successful. It only takes a few wackos with a box cutter to take down a sky scraper, or a few more to retaliate against the wrong target and kill and maim hundreds of thousands. It just requires the rest of us to do nothing. Where am I going with this? The moderators of this thread have the responsibility to be aware of destructive lies and slander on their site. If you provide a means of public discourse you are automatically a case for constructive influences or destructive ones. I am sure someone at TV is aware of this - at least they should be. Mumbo: The new magazine is out now. You should pay for your copy. You don't deserve a free one. And no pudding!

I am being slandered in this post This person is able to say that 5,000 copies were never printed when in fact they were and he didn't even contact the printers to find out. Read my post. I did not say 5000 copies were not printed, i just questioned whether 1k went to Cm and Patters, and how am i supposed to contact the printers??? Give me name of shop.

MrOzark Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Hi Mumbo, I'm working on posting the locations where to get the mag on its site. I will finish that and post it sometime tomorrow. If you don't see it on the site by midnight, you get one free slander card and can slander the website for exactly one post. It actually may deserve a bit of slandering as long as its taking to get it fully functional. When you go to pick up the mag and pay for it, which will you put down: the remote or the beer? Happy reading. - MrOzark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrOzark Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Jai Dee, Thanks. You are also Jai Yen yen. I came down pretty hard on you guys. I appreciate the work you're doing. Wasn't aware I could report people (maybe I read the rules too fast). I hope you know my intention is not to use the forum for advertising the magazine. If you have advice about how to curb things, couch things or otherwise say things correctly so I'm not taking advantage, please let me know. As soon as things calm down with misinformation about what's happening (only the destructive posts), then I'll not be so present about this topic. Thanks again.

sceadugenga Posted March 26, 2007 Author Share Posted March 26, 2007 I was the OP on this thread and Mr Ozark answered my question and then defended himself against various protagonists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Barlow Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 as per the slander thing - you can't slander a psudonym (though we know who you are...) You can slander a public institution (as one bookstore owner who advertises here has slandered another who does not...) That posters hiding behind psudonmys can flame each other is a time-honored part of this kind of "institution" and certainly not to be expected to stop. I merely consider it annoying when people accuse me of perjury (for excerpting from internet sources for my article on Drugs and Cultural Survival in the Golden Triangle - which does contain first-hand accounts...). As Mr Ozark kind of pointed out, opinions presented here aren't usually taken very seriously (and why oh why, when a 'popular' - in terms of respondant #s - recent posting seems to be about what to do with 3 "entertainers" while cruising about up here...). Still, whether Thai laws are printed on toilet paper or not (MumboJumbo), it may be wise to take the fact that they can be enforced at least somewhat seriously.
