Guess some voted with their feet (ManInRed wasn't female, was he?- That was a joke, in case he is lurking, figure maybe I could provoke a response). Wonder what happened to Blondie and that girl who elmo was in love with who lived under a bridge in the Bronx.

For me it's like reading a magazine - I pop in have a read, have a laugh. I am one of life's quiet observers. I can't see how anyone would be scared off by a posting site. Sometimes for me it's like sitting in the pub and lots of people talking bollocks round the table but in a reasonably friendly way.Good entertainment value but not always enthused to post.

seabass says on Apr 20, 2007, 11:13: Lauthra, that's what mi amiga in BQ studied in school. She briefly worked on the set of Betty La Fea in Bogota. Then for some reason she moved back to BQ (homesick I guess) and ever since all she's been able to do is work odd jobs(not in her field of study of course).

Lauthra says on Apr 20, 2007, 14:20: I have tried tv channels, but all they offer is internships, which is fine by me, but they haven't even called back for that, Im doing trasnlating work, which pays well and lets me be lazy, but I'd give it up in a sec for an internship in whatever, I love my career!

jay1234 says on Apr 20, 2007, 15:00: yup Aztec, I agree. The profanity doesn't bother me much, just kinda useless in discussing things. I can see it for humor sometimes, but whatever, usually you can just ignore it. But if it offends or drives out Colombianas who would otherwise add some interesting points of view, why do it? Maybe folks could exercise some restraint in favor of attracting more posters. But what was really dead on was the point about people not posting evidence or really defending their points. It usually goes like this: provocative statment based on opinion. Someone replies with a different point of view. OP answers with something along the lines of "I am a true Colombia expert, you are dumb." Makes for some lame discussions.

Cockney Colombian says on Apr 20, 2007, 15:35: I wouldn't say it's easier in the UK at all, there are many production companies out there, but when they do offer jobs it's predominately short term on a per production basis and paid expenses only. It's fine to build up your CV, but if you want to live...

Cerealkiller says on Apr 21, 2007, 02:56: wow, how did this thread get this long? I like reading some of the stuff here, i enjoy disliking pow wow, calling morphus a child molestor (although he knows I am only half joking) etc etc but most of the time it just stinks of testosterone and I cant be bothered. Plus I have been busy with uni. I enjoy Kat1s posts very much as well as colombiche's, she cracks me up... and just for the record, I am 100% girl!!!

paisa29 says on Apr 21, 2007, 10:08: Gracias Kat1 por mencionarme. Yo llevo mucho tiempo aquí, al principio disfrutaba mucho los temas que se debatían aquí y me gustaba opinar, pero en los últimos años el foro ha cambiado mucho, cada vez que vengo a leerlo encuentro comentarios donde hablan mal de las mujeres, especialmente de las Colombianas, nos tratan como mercancía.

morphus says on Apr 21, 2007, 11:50: You can't take messege boards too serious. Most people use them as an escape from reality. Debates are stupid too. In the end, people are always just going to believe what they want. I think its better to focus on the entertainment aspect. I make a lot of jokes on here but I pay for it. I have been insulted more than anybody. It does'nt bother me at all because its not really me they are insulting :)

David in Idaho says on Apr 21, 2007, 12:34: Maybe we could make a kiddie playground for the juvenile minded set who believe, as morhpus says, that "debate is stupid," and see this site as nothing more than a place to act childish and make weak attempts at junior-high humor. (OK, every now and then it can be funny.) But hey, I work at a junior high! I come here to interact with intelligent, experienced, and diverse people who share a common interest in Colombia. I enjoy posters (like Desi for example) who always manage to raise a point without lowering an IQ.
