Liuming,

I agree with you totally and I understand your meaning of funny. I also share your sentiments regarding the right to post any opinions, regardless of how ridiculous they may seem.

Unfortunately, the moderators of GoKunming do NOT share in our sentiments and there has been some censorship here in recent months as well as some recent posts concerning guidelines, rules and censorship. As you can read from some of the replies, some members are eager to see more censorship and more locking of threads, and SPAM buttons.

I personally do NOT approve of ANY type of censorship because the moment it begins, censorship will have no end.

I perfectly understand why the moderators locked a few threads lately. The problem is that a few people are writing some absurd things here and it causes the moderators to do something about it. Of course, the only option is to lock the thread.

I hope the OP of this post will realize that this type of posting will eventually result in locking this thread = locking a thread means censorship.

Crazy, I am pleading with you to please look at how many of your previous posts have been locked. Remember, locking a post equals censorship. Please do NOT force the moderators to begin this course of action because once it begins it will NOT end.

Funny? There is absolutely nothing funny about this. GoKunming used to be a wonderful source of information and a great place for expats to communicate, share information and learn about what is going on in the community. Unfortunately, this is no longer the case.

Crazy - I think some psychiatric help may be more useful rather than going to some restaurants if you feel this way - But I usually feel uncomfortable, like people are looking at me or judging me. I feel like I am the outcast because I am dining alone.

Does anyone else ever feel this way? Only adolescents during their egocentric stage of development.

The video is very informative but does NOT specifically tell you where these locations are located. The entrance ticket to SHI LIN (Stone Forest) is 175 Yuan. I prefer to buy an annual ticket for 200 Yuan and I can use it at any time during the year. Bring your passport and you can purchase an annual ticket which includes entrance to the MAJOR stone Forest, MINOR stone Forest, BU SHAO SHAN, LI ZI YUAN QING, WAN NIAN LING ZHI, and NAIGU stone Forest (Black Stone Forest).

Most of the footage on the video is of the Black Stone Forest. Few people know about it so each time I go, there are very few visitors, less than 5 people. This location has been completely renovated but it lacks many basics. However, There is NOWHERE to purchase any food or water anywhere in the entire park.

Another location seen in the Video is DA DIE SHUI Waterfall. This USED TO BE included in the price of the entrance ticket more than 1 year ago but it no longer is considered part of the Stone Forest. Presently, the waterfall scenic area is under renovation. The Waterfall is located more then 30 km away from the main park. 2 years ago, you can purchase tickets for the waterfall ONLY for 18 Yuan but I have no idea what the price will be after the renovation is complete.

I ASSUME that the writers and staff of GOKUNMING write these articles in an effort to inform the reader of an event or location of some significance in and around Kunming.

I find many of these articles lacking in vital information. In an attempt to be CREATIVE, the writers fail in being INFORMATIVE.

For example, the writers mentions Jiexiao Xiang many, many times but fails to tell the reader where this place is. Is it somewhere in Yunnan? Is it in Kunming? There are 5 districts in Kunming - is it in Pan long District? Or is it in one of the other 4 districts? Is there a major crossroad where this small alley can be found. Perhaps near Beijing Road or Guangfu Road.

I enjoy travelling and seeing new places and I research many of the places I visit. But I really would like to read an article here and NOT be left with MORE questions than when I started.

I ask the staff of GOKunming to please be more specific when writing about places to visit and give SPECIFIC directions such as name of town or village and county and prefecture when writing. Thank you.

The new Visa office is located at 118 Tuo Dong Road. There is no number on the building yet so do not bother to look for it. There are 2 passport photo shops on either side of the building. The office is located directly in front of the Kunming Museum. The bus stop is named - Shi Bo Wu Guan - Bus 1, 62, 109, 117, 145, 213, A1 and K3 stop directly in front of the office. Foreigners need to go to the 3rd floor. The Tuo Dong Stadium is located to the right of the office while Baita Road is located to the left of the office.
