Darth Villa Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 (edited) 43 minutes ago, TheEgo said: and we should also factor in I was literally told "keep an eye out for Tuesday" and I posted exactly that. No "wait, huge news Tuesday, but I can't say what it is" which I'd expect to be questioned, I would too ha! I don't know it to be true, but it made me think "eh up, maybe there will be some news" so I shared. I clarified this 3 times, whilst adding I don't know anything else, so no teaser or preview, literally word for word what was said. Yet some get so gnarly its unreal. Some of the OTT reactions reminds me why I stopped posting. I think we all get hot and bothered some days and perhaps that triggers some OTT reactions. It's not surprising that people are getting a bit twitchy though as the football world has gone mad this summer as I can't believe Japan are 2 -1 up against Belgium. Makes some of Xia's behaviours almost seem sane! (if that's even possible?). Edited July 2, 2018 by Darth Villa Belgium scored 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People scared to question it for being seen as negative, others lapping up every word out of desperation. My issue with 99% of people who claim to be ITK is the self important censoring they imply they have to do to protect people. If you have some information you are not allowed/not comfortable to share then say nothing. Really, what is the point of saying 'I know something but I can't say what' on a chatboard?! The only reason that makes sense is they like to look important on a board that means nothing. Quite pathetic really. If I have privileged information at work then I use my professional judgement to decide whether it stays completely confidential (I.e. shut up) or I share either snippets or the whole story. What I don't do is walk in to the staffroom and say "I've heard something that impacts you all but I can't tell you anything at all". Worse still, I don't return day after day giving pointless snippets of non-information like "well you might find out something on Wednesday about any tiny facet of your job that I can attribute to my prior knowledge" Assuming I have info I feel I can share I'll give them a real heads up with actual facts but ensure that it can't be traced to me if I wasn't supposed to say anything! In this instance it'd be something along lines of "there will be a statement this week about a takeover, can't say anything else yet/ don't know what it's about". Not something may happen on some day unless things change. I've had a bad day too and I'm sick to death of people full of such self importance or pathetic enough to need people to read their crap and then whine they're not being respected. If you can't say anything then DON'T say anything. I’m happy to hear it, and rather would, irrespective of whether it comes to anything 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no ‘ho’ sound in Mandarin. I don’t quite get why he changed his family simply for other people’s convinience, but I understand as in my workplace nobody can get my names right. And the funny thing is, his last name, HE, should be pronounced as ‘her’ in English. That certainly makes things more confusing.

We live in an age of fake news, alternative truths and any other bullshit terminology for lies, people sometimes lap it up (Trump for example). Not saying that's necessarily the case here, could all turn out or be true for all I know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
