Callaway Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 I think brothels in Las Vegas are legal, right? They are illegal in China. But in fact the number of ###### in China is large. Just take a look at Zhuhai event. Illegal within city limits of Las Vegas, but legal in Nevada. Curious to see if China had similar laws, thanks!

Dessimat0r Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 JB.. if you are posting images but not uploading them, then why not post more in a single message, rather than spamming over multiple posts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betelgeuse Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 Dessimat0r I think he's just after post counts and shameless promotion of how great China's cities are and how wonderful China is. This is fine, but if I really wanted to see pics of China I wouldn't go to a technology forum like neowin, I'd use google picture search and do it that way. :/ Anyway I could create a topic and post over 300 of pictures of Adelaide (South Australia) and surrounding areas, but why (?) I ask myself and then I realise it's just not sensible. IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

electic102 Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 What is the point of posting all these pics? Propaganda? I mean a lot of cities and the surrounding areas look great, but why spam it over and over. Big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnsonBox Posted December 5, 2003 Author Share Posted December 5, 2003 what about the dirty side? i wanna see pics of that too. there's always a dirty side to every good looking city. Dirty idea?

Blaise Veteran Posted December 5, 2003 Veteran Share Posted December 5, 2003 Dirty idea? Good idea, if NeoWin allowed posting dirty pics, everyone can try it! :) he meant the poverty of course, the side of life that causes so many to stuff themselves into cargo containers and sell themselves into slavery to escape life there..you know, that sort of thing :) but that sort of thing; the poverty anyway, is everywhere I suppose.

I ask myself and then I realise it's just not sensible. IMHO One's blindness often leads to shame on the one. (1) You don't know Chinese, so actually you don't know how to google China's cities. Cos all the names of China's cities are Chinese or their Pinyin. (2) If you talk back that you can google Beijing, Shanghai, what you will get is just some small, low quality pics. (3) Do you have much time to spend on an unprofessional site? For me, no, I don't. So I can't spend much time to collect much links or pics in one thread. what I can do is: I find one pic, then post it. ******************************************************************* @Blaise and IlliniPi, In fact I knew his meaning very well, just making fun of him.

Betelgeuse Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 You assume I don't know chinese. But I know both chinese people and a good friend of mine is fluent in chinese so I don't have a problem in looking up chinese sites with chinese cities. :o :) I don't get what you mean in point (3). :| Anyway the pictures are nice.

bdpmax Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 JohnsonBox, you are only showing the extremely modernized yet small part of China. The Chinese government is spending enormous amounts of money to facelift the big cities while the rest of the country is still largely undeveloped and agricultural, I am sure you have seen this shocking contrast. Promoting the Chinese culture and heritage is great, but you are really helping to spread the Chinese government propaganda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hit the nail right on the head.. :unsure: Anyway, I find the traditional un-westernised parts of China most interesting. Every country has tall concrete and glass buildings. But the Chinese heritage and traditional culture is what should be preserved IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatnipOligarchy Posted December 5, 2003 Share Posted December 5, 2003 But it is different,people constantly flame him. right, and they have their reasons. but the point is that mods are going out of their way to protect him, and then he attempts to flame people. both parties are wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
