DK99 is banned from ping.sg

Submitted by on July 5, 2008 – 11:32 AM82 Comments | 16 views

Wow. I was banned from ping.sg. That is a new low. Amazing.
Is there a rules that say “Cannot argue with community manager?”

Or am I pushed to the “out group” and the “out group” is banned from ping.sg?

Check this out! dk99 completely removed from ping.sg.
Woo Hoo!

    Even if it’s reversed, what’s the use? The crack is there.

    go wher?

    ECL: You’re funny. :)

    Anyhow, I think it best we steer clear of nationality and all that. This isn’t an issue of race nor gender. It’s a case of bad management in my opinion.

    DK: I did not take sides prior to this, but I think you deserve more than an unceremonious dump. While I don’t totally agree with your view, I’ll throw in my lot with you on this issue simply because what was done to you was totally unfair and uncalled for.

    Just a word of encouragement: good blogs will always have their readers, no matter if its part of a community or not. :-)

    Buny: Why go when I’m not being welcomed?

    Nadnut: 19 meh? I thought now super delayed until don’t know when. Party like not party like that. Ping.sg birthday is on 4 July. If celebrate 1 week before or after, still alright. From the way I see, going to delay up to 1 month.

  • WokkingMum says:

    OMG! I don’t understand all this banning issues. They just make no sense. I see a bit of double standards leh. It’s not like you wrote anything malicious, at least that was how I felt when I read your post. I think this is really uncalled for.

    If being banned means something to you, I hope you get unbanned. If not, well, I hope you do well in whatever alternatives you might have.

    ECL was banned from Ping.sg? Wtf….I am so blur….Didn’t even realize.

    The pioneer kena ban by the founder… tsk tsk tsk…

    I joined ping.sg way back in 2006, probably before most of you. It was Ping.sg The Aggregator back then, no community whatsoever… shoutbox sporadically updated.

    Then DK came along and brought ping.sg to a higher level, Ping.sg The Community. Things really liven up, shoutbox turn realtime chat… there were gatherings… outings… Maybe I give him too much credit but I remember him as the one running the ground.

    Indeed it is a sad day. A year ago, ECL banned herself, this year DK kena banned. I wonder next year who’s turn will it be.

    PS: I don’t know both founder and pioneer in person. I super low profile one… who never shouted… never attend any outings… just someone who adopted ping.sg in its early days and saw the ups and downs.

  • chillycraps says:

    your err so called arch rival here.

    I think once you have made your point across, let’s move on to other topics.
    This may not be healthy to your blog and your so called competition with me.

    But… haha I dunno how long you need to make your point. =P

  • ravon says:

    Hi there. I am not an active member of ping.sg, but I do frequent the site. I feel that your ban is unjust and a work of childishness. If giving your comments and voicing out your stand is not allowed, then I think you will be better off not in this community. If a little freedom of speech is not even allowed in this small community, then ping.sg should be renamed as authoritarian.sg.

  • sylv says:

    i condemn the banning.

    but i believe it also stems out from DK’s statement about giving up on the community. He just gave some reasons to ban him.

    I can’t say anymore. I’m tired of seeing this. Things are just getting worse and worse just because of some in-group separation thingy.

    Now see what you’ve done. You’ve divided ping.sg into DK supporter and Daphne supporter and everyone in between. Thank’s to you I guess.

  • :) From a professional PR perspective, DK, you seem to have successfully gather highly postive feedback to your cause and alter some perception of that community. I’ve never been a big fan of the particular community, so it probably doesn’t affect me at all but banning you off from it based on a comment is just so – childish.

    Cheer up, pal. It shouldn’t affect you professionally or personally. :)

  • xizor2000 says:

    The ban will make those who already disagree feel even more alienated I am not surprised if some are already doing some of these:

    1. removing the auto-ping code from their blogs – i.e. stop using ping entirely; and / or

    2. end all community participation – be it chatting or welcoming newbies in shoutbox, contributing ideas or comments in forum, helping newbies with their usual ‘can’t see my ping’ problems, etc; and / or

    3. participate in community events – e.g. meet ups.

    I’ll rather hang around with FoxTwo more often for lim jiu in the future… and least there isn’t much sorrows downing alcohol… Or meet up more often with Chillycraps for some bitching and crapping over coffee, or with my meis xy and pinklittlefigure for some bitching about their work… :D

  • xizor2000 says:

    Sorry, point 3 should read as:

    3. stop participate in community events – e.g. meet ups.

    hi dk, i am sorry to hear that. So, do you received an email from the team stating you are ban or what? What is the reason?

  • mott says:

    eh…don’t blame his nationality la….each and every country will have such fools!!

    blame the person!

  • dk says:

    Mott: Yes. I agree. Let’s leave the nationality aside. :)

  • So have you found the proof that I said ‘Veron slept with Uzyn to get the award’?
    You can post it out if you got it, I’m willing to be punished. Tie me up and have me paraded on the streets.

    People, including you, believe such crap without having proof and then attack me for it. Can I not feel angry and hurt?
