Our college website, or to be more specific our online forum, is in a mess. A huge one. It has turned into a 'playground' for students to attack each other online. The battle parameters have extended beyond personal threads and have leaked into general feedback threads.
Nonetheless, hidden below the dark cloud is one man who is working hard, although subtly, to clean up the mess. He is none other that TPJC.net's most friendly user, Ami Yousoff. Ami is concerned with the recent development of events. For one, he is certainly displeased with how certain parties are 'politicizing' the forum.
Our forum is almost synonymous to Ami. He was the one who popularized the phrase 'well said', which eventually began an online cult among TPJCians almost everywhere - in the forum, Photoshare as well as podcast. He brings humour in our lives, sharing hilarious jokes and pictures in our college website occasionally.
Ami has been instrumental in keeping almost every thread in our forum alive. It is almost impossible to not find his name in any of the forum threads, except for the CCA threads of course.
Referring to Ami's latest forum post which read, 'you know you are from tp when u see ppl being super mean to someone on a certain thread. :(', it is pretty clear that he is not contented with the recent spate of personal attacks lying all over the forum. We believe he is not the only one; there are many 'lurkers' out there who are viewing the updates with a capsized smile.
We are on Ami's side and we hope peace returns to our forum. We miss the old forum whereby we share funny, informative and fresh posts among users. It is very mean to insult your fellow schoolmates online, in front of the God-knows-how-many viewers. If you are unhappy with a user, you should inform him or her politely, via online message.
It is just not right to perceive personal attacks on almost every thread everyday. We need a friendly environment in TPJC.net. We need a fun space for students. In other words, we need Ami.
