Mr Wizkido,

I accede to your initial request to use only English on this forum and am doing so as that seems to be the best language you go down with.

I am by no means writing this to offend you.

Firstly, it is undeniable that your views have certain points that are valid. However, it has to be noted that a large many of them are just mere fallacies and thus there is little reason of even acknowledging your very long write-up.

Secondly, I am extremely puzzled and appalled at your rather narrow-minded and childish attitude.

Since you feel so strongly that this forum is of no importance and that it is an utter waste of time, then I would kindly request that you leave this forum and spend your own time wisely.

You have also mentioned many times that the language you use is socially accepted in the terms of your country and thus find no error on your part to use such language here.
However, sir if you are a learned man as you claim, why is it so difficult to converse in a civilized manner?

Furthermore, since the internet is such a waste of time, then why sir are you still hear posting on this forum? Is that not a sheer laughable irony?

I refer to the post, in which you chose the easy way and slandered ‘Shaggy’ and the Administrators of this forum; as you mentioned that you do not know ‘Shaggy’ as a person, then what right do you posses Sir, to poison the well with venomous words? You claim that he is an egotistical and foolish. Then sir is it not possible to see that you yourself are acting out the true definitions of those very words?

I take it as you sir are not going to be much bothered by this post, as am I yours, however, I shall take a few more minutes to explain the reason why many of us are still here, part of this Elakiri family, as you have aforementioned that you fail to see such a reason:

It’s a simple word called pride; of being born a Sri Lankan and seeing ourselves as one, regardless of our location, and that is what keeps this place going. The feeling of being a part of a warm and familiar community, tandem with the same value and family system present in what we call home.

Some may call it blind-love, others patriotism, nevertheless it is still the reason we stand tall and smile when we say, “Yes, I am a Sri Lankan”

It isn’t the color of our passports, our various accents or the address on our letters that make us a Sri Lankan, ‘it’s the pride deep inside, and we are ONE’

    This might not be as cheap as ur 0.02 British pounds worth suggestion... Bt what we r talking is worth more than that.. so read it or leave it....

    Even though I am nt a srilankan… I like Sinhala songs n from one of ma friend I got a sinhlaa video song… I saw elakiri water mark in the video n I logged in to the site on 08-17-2006… I was only downloading songs from EK till March 2007 when Iboo (Maybe u’ll not know him, bt all the active EK members will know him…)was trying to do a JAVA assignment for his course… N he needed someone’s help n he was trying to find a guy to teach him Java to do that assignment… N finally he discussed with me n he opened a thread in EK asking for someone’s help..

    Just read what he wrote on that thread…
    “Hi all, Im a Maldivian studying here in Sri Lanka. I have been assigned a little assignment in Java and i'm having trouble in doing it. I'm not much familiar with java and the lecturer who taught java was not very
    helpful. Is there anyone who can help me out with my assignment?
    It doesnt matter if anyone can take me a class, i'm ready to pay for it. Hope there's someone who can help....”



    Within 12 minutes, replies poured in, he got help and everyone asked him to contact amila325… Iboo contacted him and amila325 came to our house n he stayed up all night and half of the following day with Iboo to help him out with the assignment.. As he took a break of what they were doing, we asked him about EK and he told a lot…. he told abt GT n Lich N how friendly and helpful all the members are gonna be… so after that I got intrested to EK… N I started posting in EK after 7 months since I got registered… N now I can proudly say I am an active Foreign member in the largest and most famous online communty in Srilanka…

    I don’t want to write so much on this thread bt I just want to write ma own expreince n why I am involved in EK…..

    The day we saw this site me n iboo had a future dream.. happily & proudly I can say that,
    that dream will become a reality very soooon INSHA ALLAH… THNX for the guy who’s gonna make it possible….

    I met gt n lich and talked them personally...
    They are the best, friendly, helpful, cooolest .. Admins I’ve ever met….

    N now I have a bunch of true friends in EK, though I haven’t met them personally (someday we’ll meet for sure)… They helped me out in anything I asked them for and I really appreciate it.

    I’ve been in SL for quite a while, but guess what,
    I don’t understand or speak sinhala much, but now within a month or two, I’ve learned a lot (btw u might think whats so good about learning sinhala, but for me, as I live here it’s a great advantage to knw the local language) .

    I know, I posted 1000 posts in three days, but now I won’t be able to do that, coz that was when I was free from my studies and all the other works, but still, I think im little managed on my time so I get time to be with EK and post in it, n I will keep doin it as long as I can.
    So DO u think for me its worth posting EK or not, is it a waste of time for me? I don’t think so. Coz I’ve leanrnt a lot and gained a lot….

    One more thing, I’ve come across so many online communities of Maldives…. U better check it out, its threads are of all nasty stuff, filthy talks and cannot be viewable in front of our parents. U can compare EK to so many other online forums and its hard to find one like this. I think EK is ONE OF A KIND, and if its not, we r going to make it…….


    EK IS THE BEST...​
    Well Said Bro:cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:
    NO ONE CAN LET THE EK SPIRIT DOWN
    N DIS IS WORTH DAN UR F***ING 2 POUNDS OR WAT EVA DAT IS

    OK !

    First. I don't want to land in hot water with the admins for De-moralizing this forum:eek:

    But I am writing this on behalf of the 16 Pm's I got regarding my post. :shocked:

    here you guys and "girl" this is my reply for your mails.. and for shaggy as part.


    How to get out of the Internet vicious cycle.

    Forums and Internet IRC chats are commonly known to have a vicious cycle. The cycle is as;

    Internet-----> Online People---> Find it better than your lonely real world------> waste time and money--------> life is ruined -------> Back to step 3.... and the cycle continues. :D

    so, I guess as per the PM's I got, you guys & girl are stuck in this cycle.. and you all find it hard to escape from it. ??

    The only advice I can give you on this is;

    DO not WASTE time on internet. SPEND it

    Now, Shaggy took a easy path out of my suggestions in his 21000 thread. But bro, read your reply again and see what you have told me. You just implored your self of EXACTLY what I said about you. Lonely. Time wasting. Useless Internet Jerk. And I must not let pass you the comment of "YOU HAVE A BIG EGO" which is utterly useless. :lol:

    And bro, if you have sent 21K replies in 11 months.. that's at a rate of 95 replies per day on a 20 working day month. :shocked: that into 4 minutes per message / and browsing the forum means you have wasted 47 SOLID working hours per month. Which would have been utilized wisely for the development of this country :confused: if you just do a calculation, you have simply wasted 65 days of the last 11 months on this forum :eek: And I am not surprised as to why this country is not seeing any development. :eek:

    Moving on........... guys and girls, please understand that forums and internet at large is nothing but a world of virtual reality. Though I am not snubbing my nose off the list here, I have also wasted a good part of my life on the Internet :D. and mind you chaps, I have been logged into this world for the last 14 years (started from Apra) whilst you Sri Lankans weren't even not aware of what a Computer is let alone about internet. ;)

    Moving back to my original statement. "HOW can you get out it"

    Guys & girls

    The people who are constantly logged into the internet and keep on posting bullcrap on forums are nothing by egoistic upright monkeys. And simply jerks who has no life outside a computer. Did you ever stopped for a moment and thought about "WHY" you are here? why are you so "HOOKED" into this forum?

    Simple. you are trying to get away from a harsh realities of "real" life. Why do you try to be a MACHO man in the forum ? Simple. cause you are skimpy "un-noticeable" character in real life. You just want to impose your Macho mania attitude on others and get a "kick" out of it :yes: Why do you Send your poems to this forum?, but why can't you just send it to the papers of your local area?. why here? Simple. Because no one in reality simply appreciate you.

    I was going through this forum and came upone this "MAGIC CHAP" (dude. just for you = I have met David Copperfield for real :yes: ) and did you guys ever noticed that though he's a loved and a respected character in this group, he never over does him self in posting replies, or trying to out do another poster? WHY? simple. because he is loved and cherished by people other than in virtual reality. :D

    As per Admins of a forum, you have a great responsibility to make sure that your users do not waste their time on the internet. Although you can argue on the judgment point that "What they do is of no business to me", yet, you should have the MORAL responsibility to make sure your users are actively "Spending" their time on your forum than to "waste" it.

    Suggestion for Admins

    Although I am not fammilier in this part of the world. Back at my place, forum admins are usually loved characters in the real world, who organize charities, parties, etc etc. We usually collect about 100 pounds a month :D

    So. why not you Admins, take charge? create a bank account, ask your members to chip in atleast 100 bux per month. And do some community project. Last month My fa-in-law gave a lunch for some war effected children at a place called "Ratmalana" which costed him around 5000/- bux.. but it was really worth it :yes: Why don't you guys organize something like that? TO GET your users out of their internet world and meet up for real ?

    Or why don't you guys organize a party? a Bash ? for the guys and the girls? (heck. back there we have a girl name "devilwoman" who really rides a harly to work:yes: ..she usually organized strip parties :D :D .) though it may be a bit Anti-cultural of SL, why not do something moderate each month?

    Admins of a Forums are NOT SUPPOSE to be SITTING DUCKS :yes:


    And for users... how do you get out of it?


    1. MAKE some real life friends. :D

    2. Every time you feel like logging into the forum.. forget it, go out and have a smoke. or (for all your MAN bodies but women genes - nonsmokers) go out and have a coffee. And for girls... er. DUH ! . I duuno. apply lipstick or call your guy for some phone sex or something..

    3. Stick to a RULE.

    ONE POST PER THREAD. no matter how damn interesting the thread is. if you have stated your reply. DO NOT REPLY again. that way, you will cut down the time your waste.

    4. Keep your self out of the forum for one day. see if you can do it. If you did. then activily engage in the forum on the next day :D . and do not log in for two days after.

    see if you can work that up to a week. Will do a great Help

    5. Remove your self from the form :cool:


    One last thing

    For your guys and Girl you PM'ed me. I have only one advice for you. BE REAL

    One said, that he can't express his thought because problems might come. :D. dude.. just type "forums" on google and see how many BIGGER and ACTIVE forum there in this world. Thus. just be your self chap. If you feel like saying something in public. "SAY IT" be true to your self on the NET, then you will see that bridging the gap between reality and virtual seems less and less.. and one day you will realize that this FORUM is just a "thing" not "THE THING" :D


    My good friend Brian Behlendorf once told in a meeting (ok. for those chaps don't know him, he's considered the GOD of Apache server) about internet. here it is.

    "Internet is like fuc*ing your mistress. You fu*k her hard and fu*k her good. But make DAMN sure you Pull out before she takes your home and the car" :D :D :D :D

    So.. pull out in time to save your selves groupies.. or as I suggested, Admins can make this forum a worthwhile place by making your users actively participate in things which are "real" .

    THEN.. and THEN only. you can really post someone's name and say "Good work bro, congrats for your great contribution towards this forum" .... not like you gummy bears do now just congratulating for the number of posts.


    I am expecting 4 things from this post

    1. Faggot ass BIG headed EGO monkey ADMIN will remove me and the post :D

    2. You will all bash me like HELL. (which I don't mind)

    3. You will all talk about it and do something worth while "like arranging a charity" (I really hope you guys do something worthwhile)

    4. Silence. (confirming what I said was true.but scared to talk in open)

    Ok. guys. this is my 0.02 great britsh pounds worth of advice. Take it or leave it is your option :D
    read da whole thin.. :lol:
    sigh.. wasting ur time on da net trying to stop us wasting time.. i appreciate that.
    the fact is elakiri has organised a lotta thins which don kno. eg. Trip to Kandy
    y r u keeping on saying stick to reality.. Dude this is reality.. the replys are not computer generated.. n wat v get here is wat v get outside the internet.
    as in its da same damn thin which happens.. u socialize on da net or in a club doesnt really matter caz da result is same..
    u said :
    1. MAKE some real life friends. :D

    once again this IS reality.. da frnds u make here r not computer bots..
    u also said: in the outer world no1 appreciates ur work.. May i remind u dats its da same ppl on the net n outside.
    k mayb just tryin to get a lotta posts is simply pathetic.. n stickin in front of da screen is da same.. but the benefit is vast.. the result is u make new frnds, learn new thins, get da latest news, da latest songs or any other kind of favour rangin frm advice to business.
    so the point im streesing is hangin on the forum when ur free/bored is not a waste of time.. but fr da ppl who r basically 24/7 in here hav to get a life.:yes: n i don think theres any such idiots in this forum.
    cheers

    Every1 here has got a point, maybe u've got a point to some extent. bt y don't u admit that this site is coool, this site is great, it has got coool members. members who appreciate what others do and their achievements. If u're concerned abt someone's higher number of posts, then pls it's not ur concern. we appreciate shaggy's and all the other members contribution and opinions towards the site and towards anything they r interested in. We share a lot, we are friendly, helpful and we work together.

    We are a virtual family, Together we stand to protect our family. Insult one and u're insulting us all... EK is the best and it will be the BEST... why do u care if we spend our time in EK, how do u know how we manage our time. as far as our parents are not concerned about their money, why do u care? maybe for someone's good. but still we know what we are doing... I hear many foreigners saying "Sri Lankans are so friendly and helpful" we say that too. Did u ever wonder why people say that? It's maybe Coz they dont find like this ppl in their country... This is an example community for all the countries out there.... I'm nt goin to make this long... as Aphoo said find somewhere else to sell ur cheap 0.02 British pounds worth suggestions........ we dont buy it. SORRY.COM
