Please take note that we are removing all threads referring to the Plaza Low Yat incident due to excessive amount of trolling, rumor mongering and posting of unverified news that contains strong racial undertones.

As a responsible forum that caters to over 300,000 visitors a day, we do not want to be used as a platform that is abused to spread false and unverified news to the masses. As such, threads that deviate from verified news, or contains any racial undertones will be immediately removed.

Hi care to explain why my post was removed? did i touch anything sensitive? or racism?

Most threads are removed due to replies, not the original post.

If you open a thread, consider self moderation. If you can't self moderate your topics, and there are unwanted comments, the entire thread will be removed.

ok so can I  self-moderate my Malay friend FB post now?

I will do my best to clear stupid and racist comments.

What you posted is the personal opinion of your friend, which is why it was posted on her FB, and not on a public forum. If she is really your friend, you should respect her personal opinion on her personal FB wall instead of trying to make it available for public consumption.

A truly responsible forum will allow for discussion to take place so people don't have to just believe the rubbish rumours on facebook.

Threads are closed when and if they deviate, and becomes a platform for spreading false news/rumours. We are not closing/removing threads that provide genuine information and verified updates (not updated from fb, uncle, auntie, toilet cleaner etc).

verified updates. Meaning if source from let's say NST, Chinapress, Utusan, those boleh share?

Well, not just the newspapers. If its from social media, check the source, instead of just blindly copy paste. If its someone you know, double check before posting it up to verify that they actually had first hand information, not just passing along the message from an unknown sender/source.
