Khmer440 - Credit to the Moderator and Owner
Credit to whom it deserves.
khmer440.com has a long history. When controversial founder of the website Peter Hogan launched khmer440.com all Barangs faced a very different enviroment of what Cambodia is today. Hogan was no pussy when it meant to attack and smear people that he didn't like eventhough he didn't really knew them. On the positive site his website provided a wealth of information , vital for many Barang here, so was this tabloid : https://www.bayonpearnik.com/ which ended in 2019.
After he sold and shortly afterward died the punch of khmer440 slowed considerably leaving room for others to fill the void, albeit with a different perhaps more shallow quality. I am glad khmer440 exists to this very day. It provides loads of vital info and room for oposing views on many subjects. The overall tone here is not agressive and abusive as it once was, thanks to a moderator who seems to be mature enough to navigate through the info's Expats share here khmer440 can survive for a longer period that many expected.
What would help is a bit of "dusting up" of the website, the front page in particular. I'm not a programer but perhaps someone could help.
All in all i would like to thank the owner and the moderator for their good work.

Has my ageing memory failed me? Didn’t the governor found the forum rather than Peter?

And no disrespect to anybody intended however there’s barely any tone at all. Yes, sentimentally it is nice k440 exists (nice ) but it is an existence rather than being alive.

I know other handles but still believe in not providing real names. Was surprised by the Humphrey post being allowed to provide usernamesTwat wrote: ↑Sat Sep 04, 2021 4:07 pmYou are correct. Bonus points if you know the Governor's other handle although know past and present owners form he probably has more than one sock puppet.

Well when someone ignores the obvious in a post, yeah, I’m going to mention it.
To not be aware of it is just being blind.

Did a post get deleted here suggesting that Alexandra could use some help with tech stuff?

I don't think so, I'm not sure that English is 'expatissimo' first language. There is something a little odd in the way he writes.Dylan Quint wrote: ↑Sun Sep 05, 2021 8:45 amSurely it is the serial sycophant poster once known as 'RickyBobby'rektj00 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 05, 2021 6:59 amI just presumed it was.Fred Edwards wrote: ↑Sun Sep 05, 2021 6:39 amIt would be funny if you turned out to be Alexandra...lol
