Chinese-forums is so cool it should be on facebook

[simonlaing]

Hey Guys,

I was just thinking if I started a Chinese-forums fan page would you guys join it?

I was thinking for sharing pictures or meeting people in your area of China it might be cool.

Or perhaps we could incorporate some facebook stuff into the forums, like a pictures thread.

Or random Chinese games, I am sure there must be a java 80 points card game or a Xiangqi chinese chess applet that would be cool to play...

have fun,

SImon:)

[Senzhi]

I'm in for it.

However, I noticed that in the last week or so Facebook has been intermittently inaccessible from multiple locations within China. Not sure if it's a technical or political glitch.

CF SHOULD TOTALLY BE ON FB. Like, yea!

[simonlaing]

I am not quite sure how to promote it. But I made the fan group

it's title is

Fans of Chinese-forums.com

email or PM me if you want to be an Admin,

Roddy of course you will be added.

have fun,

Simon;)

P.S. for those of you having trouble getting on line sometimes using zh-cn.facebook.com

will help.

P.P.S. also Chinese censor make you try three times to get the facebook page to deter other people from joining but it still is providing the service.

I created a "Chinese Language Learners" group at OSU years back and filled in chinese-forums.com as the web site

[LaoZhang]

Visited the FB site...

now I realize that Simon Laing is not Simon Liang.

[simonlaing]

Yep I am a westerner,

I am going to ask facebook if I can get a link to the fan page as I am not sure how to work it.

For some reason I thought muyongshi was a girl before as well. But hey it's a party.

I wonder if skylee will join, I imagined her as a female movie affionado.

have fun,

Simon:)

[muyongshi]

May I remind everyone of this thread that we had awhile back.... (just to avoid further confusion...) I was the second one to reply in that thread....let's keep it straight from now on shall we?

[Lu]

And Muyongshi even had his picture on the forums!

Given how careful skylee is with her personal information, I highly doubt she'll join. I'm less careful but don't think I'll join, for the same reason. I'm quite comfortable being anonymous here. Not disagreeing with the title of this thread though :-)

[muyongshi]

And Muyongshi even had his picture on the forums!

I did??

[chenpv]

I might be responsible for that. Found 勇士‘s photo on Xinhua.net and sought confirmation here in one of the posts. You can blame me, though I beg you not to.

PS: Always curious about what Skylee, Lu and studentyoung look like. Only know Skylee 姐姐's silhouette from her blog...

[muyongshi]

Ah yes...I remember....thanks for the reminder...me and my bad memory...

[imron]

Haha, with such a lousy memory, how do you manage to learn Chinese

Edit: Doh, beaten to it by Chenpv.

[muyongshi]

My memory is bad...however the things that are TRULY* important I tend to remember

Chenpv...I'll think about the blame thing and get back to you on it later!

[gougou]

So muyongshi goes digging out the age-old thread on genders and everybody blames him for having a bad memory? The world is not just!
