  Really? Lock and deletion?
  
  Just because there are people against your beliefs?
  
  
  Even if you're Korean, you don't dictate the rules of behavior and whether something like that is right or wrong.
  
  Is assault okay in Korea then?

  
  
  Stop with your annoying questions that is totally off-topic.
  
  First, I was trying to make sure this topic is not biased as mabination has a tendency of taking the obvious article's point and ridicule other points.
  I'm not saying the lady was right in hitting her, BUT IT IS ALSO NOT RIGHT TO BASH AT THE LADY.
  
  I wanted to make sure there are equal or similar number of people on each side of the argument.
  Threads like this is pointless if all you are gonna do is take the majority side and bash the minority.
  
  Hey I should post a thread about hitler to discuss about how obviously horrible he was.
  
  
  Think outside the box. This world is far more complex than it seems.

  No, the Hitler thing has nothing to do with this, this isnt a debate, its news, hence it being in the News section

  Article said someone else said that she was an annoying old lady anyway. Even if Korea's values are different, doesn't change the fact that the lady's a troll :V If she isn't a total hag maybe you could blame the girl, but I feel like blaming the old lady :D

  Hitler was a genius. Used his power for the wrong reasons, but it takes a genius to go from zero to ruler of most of Europe in the span of a few years >_<

  Annoying questions and off topicness? I agree with Tim, it's almost like you're the one who can't handle this thread maturely, sorry.
  
  And you can't control other's opinions like that.
  
  If people think the old lady is right, they'll think the old lady is right. If they agree with the girl, then let them be. You can't tell other people what to say to make a fair debate.

  How about we blame them both for handling the situation poorly?

  Yeah.. but I'm still siding with the girl more.
  
  Teens today will be teens. The majority will not treat you well if you yell at them even after they apologize (even if you think it's not sincere).
  
  Throwing her around by the hair, in my standards, because of mud, is wrong beyond what the girl did.

  I was only adding context to the story so that people can decide fairly instead of falling for a propaganda.
  
  But if you like preventing people from taking other side by telling that my points are invalid, then do as you like. Obviously the news article itself isn't a fair starting point to deciding who to support.
  
  *my original view on this was that neither the lady or the girl are right, but you all made me look like im an extremist who support the lady because I had to counter argue those who said my point isn't valid.

  Well next time you want to keep people from falling for propaganda, try to be more respectful instead of saying mabination is unable to handle such a topic, and basically saying everyone but you is immature and doesn't understand anything about Korea.

  the news article does not favor the girl or the old woman
  and the cat's title did not favor the girl or the old woman

  Teenager should have beat the old hag up. Hope the hag gets criminal charges also.

  I wouldn't care how old she was, I'd punch the old woman in the face

  wow, that girl shouldve punched the old lady! D: I wouldve

  
  
  Maybe they should have been more mature.
  
  
  @the cat, The article clearly puts more support for the girl than the lady (if you want analysis, i will do it. just dont wanna do it pointlessly) and
  you should have titled your thread as "Korean Subway: Elderly Woman rages at Teenage Girl For being rude"
  
  
  @Kazuni, just because i'm pepe doesn't mean you have to hate me for it. I became one just cuz the forum wanted me to and i get a flashy title that only admins and lan get. I could care less about you, I already have too many elves to stalk.

  You think I'm being like this because I personally think you're annoying?
  No. You were being disrespectful to forum members. I couldn't care less about what other people said about the old lady, but I'm a moderator and I can't exactly watch you calling everyone else stupid and immature and not do anything.
  
  Instead of watching people saying things like that and reacting in like, you should watch your own behavior a bit more, no?
  
  You'll end up looking like a hypocrite.
  
  
  There are things you can't do anything about. The thread title is not biased, imo, and the Cat is not obligated to go and rename it at your request.

  You have your job and I have my job. Your job is to make sure people don't hurt each other. My job is to make sure people aren't misinformed as that is unfair.
  
  I'm just pointing out what is wrong with our community and I get blamed for it.
• Taycat wrote on 2010-10-05 00:38
  ABC, how about you stop using the Korean and speak in English, please?
  
  Not everyone is Korean.
  
  So either go back to South Korea or speak English so we may all understand you.

  I'm just asking you do it in a more polite fashion.
  
  The way you did it (especially where you wrote in Korean) was almost like you were blatantly insulting the community.
  
  If you were trying to get people to understand Korean culture, then why would you type Korean? Were we expected to know how to read Korean even when you were supposedly educating us on the etiquette?
  
  And your job to inform the people of things like that? I wouldn't put it in those words. Yes, you may tell others your side, but to go so far as to request a lock stating that people couldn't handle the topic when it had barely received any replies?
  
  Final word: Be more polite. It's all I was asking for from the very beginning from a moderator's standpoint.
