lol.. if you are talking abt the avatars used.. lol.. or others.. then years.. quite.. ahem... Singapore still prefers an approach of monitered tolerence in my opinoin. if its nothing politically inclined, normally they will close an eye. Software would mean how the forum looks like in a minor degree but majorly functions are the other issues.. for example the one i've mentioned has a reputation function.. which is quite hilarious. member can up or down a forummer's reputation points.. that has its drawbacks as ppl start to cheong post count or register "phantom" nicknames to have multiple accounts. on the other hand it creates alot of fun and buzz around the forums. bandwidth can be likened to pipeline.. the bigger the pipe.. more things can pass through.. meaning faster to surf the forums.. no lag time.. etc.. yes. too lax.. ppl will also leave. freedom of speech but with common courtesy. we don't want RT to become "Flame Wars" ..

the most expensive cost is bandwidth followed by server space. domain name is not too expensive. Forum will depend which software is used. For example a forum like vbulletin cost about $ 185USD for a full licence and roughly $30 USD thereafter. depends, you can find cheap server space in singapore or overseas.

dude, don't fret. you're most likely not alone.

Every forum have their own policy or a set of terms and conditions. On the other hand, whether these are being enforced is a big question mark. Maybe that said why I never log in to HWZ anymore.

yeah.. what about a "here's my 50cent a month" donate to renotalk charity drive? !!
-
ya lah.. because you gals cheong post count.. server space no more.. so tiam tiam need to Upgrade ... and Upgrade need money.. so need to find "investors" now.. heh heh...
-
still dare to say.. You can consider. RT is looking for ppl to do sales though.. so its still about getting paid by RT.. lol.. but i don't think you'll be interested, knowing you, you'll like to sit at home and refresh the pc screen and cheong post count.

sixty five words a minute is not bad.. but at the rate you are going i'm quite sure that you could be typing twice as fast as that... its not only typing... your reading skills are also amazing.. i'm wondering if this is an innate ability but i gather that it could be the gang of Air/xinyi/kat that could be attributing to this amazing phenomena. have all of you gals realized that all of you also type very fast? i think the long ardous hours you gals put into renotalk has really developed your motor skills to another level... I never said i didn't get it.

all of you gals here can put strong multi-tasker. fifi must put excellent multi-tasker. fifi is amazing, how many words per minute can you type?

Gd Points raised by zirk3355 (Although naming was part of our government's policy to shame renegade scholars previously, its not a recourse accepted in this forum. Please take note.) I believe that the seller is also able to claim that if he sold you at x price and now he can't sell it again at such price, the difference is claimable off the buyer. (I'm quite sure of this point) As mentioned, do check with your solicitor. -

Have you spoken to your agent about it? There is alot to consider: Air-con and Renovation Deposit : Speak to the firm if they allow you to delay your reno to another place when you find one. Tell them your fustrations. Bank Loan : speak to the officer. Sometimes banks are negotiable. Tell them that if they delay for you, you'll definately sign up with them again. for the new loan. -
True. On the other hand, there are jobs that don't really focus on qualifications. In life its all about getting noticed also when you work hard. More qualifications do guarantee one a job. But EQ and networking are ultimately important in landing the "big one". Don't feel sad, just try again. Maybe too much renotalk and not enough revision. Unlikely to be hard hit but expect cutting back on headcount. Xinyi, You're currently in a good industry now, don't worry. I'm not sure that IT exec earn the most. If yes then maybe I shouldn't have changed industry 6-7years ago.

I empathize with your situation but have you considered the fact that the owners who sold you the house have the money to pay you damages? I'm not trying to be callous about the situation but its a point worth considering. -
Are These Quotes The Norm Or Abit Overboard?

exactly why i mentioned .. -
No worries Kat. Glad to help. The average fresh graduates today can earn anything between SGD2.8k to 3.5k for starting. I've "heard" of graduates making 100k annual package because they are top class graduates in SMU.

Hi Diva, This thread need to change name to TCSS thread. lol. Banking for me. Singapore together with Hongkong's growth are quite linked to US i'm afraid. Exports account for more than an 200% of GDP for both countries and a slowdown in trade will still affect the region.

Well, thought about it and decided why not. Moderator's job is like UN peacekeeper. Make sure everything is a-ok in the forum. And do maintenence work like merging of similar threads etc. News or speculation of a US recession has been rife since last year June. A technical recession might be on the books. Meaning that 2 consecutive quarters of slowing GDP growth. Its not an issue that would be devastating like the asian currency crisis in my opinion. Although a slowdown in US growth affects other countries due to the web of bilateral trade ties, it is still firms that are in US and europe that are affected worse than the others. At the same time, Financial firms are of course worse hit. Having said that Private Banking and Investment banks are still actively hiring in the asian markets. Not too big an issue to worry unless you are in financial industries.. maybe you'll get a lot less bonus.

Good idea. My friend managed to get a waiver on the card. I wonder if can get anot.. heh heh..

Hmm. It seems like could be the 1) Vista update service 2) Virus Realtime scan/update Will go back and check. on this. oh yah. I also have this program that loads itself everytime. its supposed to be a webseminar program .. might need to delete that away.. Mine is the normal vista.. not the business or ultimate. too expensive. But i heard from other ppl that the bottleneck is around 4gb after which extra ram is negligible in terms of performance. mine is the 7900 GS Sonic. 256mb leh.. not the normal 7900.. Thanks. fresh from the oven today.

Really? I'm planning to apply for the card though.

Today? I heard that if you bring admin out for a drink, he/she will give you the moderator status. So I PM admin and invited admin for drinks and chit chat to grease the wheels abit. Typical of our Sillypore "its who you know mentality"... By the way, I was kidding. So please don't go around PM admin for coffee.

Its always about the relationship. Thats the reason why my GP has been with me for more than 25 years.
