He's right and furthermore, the originator of this thread should take a notepad and take notes, along with the rest of the naysayers here but especially the originator. Why, because the Goldman is also a French but he is someone who knows. If he could only run for President in America.....
If I remember correctly, this is the second time you promote my candidature, but appealing to my ego worked, you put a smile on my face Imperator... Who does not like a bit of shoe polish?

Your call underlines the outrageous and insane lack of leadership in the US. This is very dangerous. Should US citizens wish to, they could write the name of Ron Paul on their ballots.

In liberty

I don't want RonPaul, RuPaul, Paul Bunyan, or Paul the Apostle to run for president. I am supporting Gildman the Proff. Gildman is well informed, has more slogans, quotes, graphs and graphics than are available to the current administration. His brain and computer move faster than a New York minute and the way today's politicians move, 12 years isn't enough to save the economy and worldly image. Gildman for president. Imperator has spoken.

Re:DalianXpat only aimed at rich expats ??? 3 Months ago  
why, a lot of misunderstanding here...

and thank you Heiney, your post was very useful !

by saying "rich people", i wasn't willing to attack anybody. judging how "vehemently" (does that word exist, btw?) you answered, is it so bad to be rich ?

i'm not whining either. i have a good salary for what i'm doing which allows me to enjoy Dalian life by my way and a lot of other advantages.

my thread just reflected my feelings about this website... maybe i'm just too young to understand its atmosphere ! (hehe)

ok, nothing more to add

oh, btw, i tried gaelic football today. it's really exhausting, but it's pretty fun too.

ok, bye all !

It's the feeling I have.

Most of the "Dalian events" are very expensive ones, and most of them concern "full of laowai business men" places.

Do the admins care about the average foreign teachers or the foreign students ?

Are there any events else than "Shangri-La Hotel" and expensive "buffets" ?

The first thing I noticed about your post was your avatar and it told me a lot about you.

None of it was good.

The only event sponsored directly by DalianXpat (as noted by admin) is the Sunday Coffee at Starbucks. If you can't swing 20 kwai for a cup of coffee once a week I suggest you look for a better job or learn how to live within your budget.

The other events you see listed are posted by members (getting people to join them at a favorite club or cultural event) or by "advertisers" - NOT DalianXpat.

You may complain about the Shangrila but I notice you conveniently forgot to mention the happy hours where the beers are half price. What's the matter? Can't you afford 13 kwai draughts?

Of the top of my head, I know of only a handful of Xpats on this site earning "western pay" and trust me, I know a number of the very active members here personally.

That being said, please feel free to volunteer your services to create a "cheap" event on behalf of DalianXpat.

Thank you

Haha

I have gotten a lot of messages from female 'members' of this site. I don't really care, but its so obvious why a lot of them are on the site to begin with.
