Perhaps people that can use 2 languages are more civilized?
Perhaps people that are trying to improve themselves are more civilized?
Perhaps people that are uncivilized fail to bait the civilized one?
This is my take:
To understand this, perhaps we should look at the reason why the Voz you and I know are so considered "uncivilized".
The root of this "behaviour" (from my POV) is from all the debates we usually have on F17, F33. It all started out as a joke, I think, debating and making fun of each other. But after a while, these things escalated and lost its original gayness (yes, I use this word because the comment earlier today
) Debating turned into fighting, making fun of each other turned into insulting each other. Time went by and we have the Voz with its famous "uncivilized culture" of today.Back to the main topic, here we are, where people are just trying to improve themselves, or just simply want a safe haven to share their random thoughts. Here there is no debate to be found, no fight to be won, no target for all the insults. What would a troll do if they have no one to bait? what would a "uncivilized" one fight for if there is no argument to debate on?
But seriously, if the uncivilized behaviour you are talking about is swearing, I perhaps am the most bloody uncivilized mofo of this thread. I keep my tongue in check around here. But people around me and Vozers on discord know how bloody foul my fcking god damn mouth is. I swear like a sailor both IRL and on the internet, both in Vietnamese and in English (which is nothing to be proud of). But truly I find no reason to throw it out here, no target for the anger, no source of raw emotion... So there is no point of being such a barbaric human.

Welcome back. Hopefully, the lowered temperature due to the rain today has cooled you down a little bit.

I have read everything you wrote on your blog (I don't know if it's true?), I think you come from the gen y generation (8x) because gen z these days only like cafes shops where they can check in on ins, they do not care or pay attention to the taste of coffee, just satisfy their eyesAnother struggling day for me but it's better for now!

Do you know the specific reason (like rule violation)? If that's true, I can't believe you have been banned for an IMO topic.
Although I'm not a Math student (I study Computer Science at high school and university), I feel Math is interesting. Banning an account for an IMO topic is not a good idea,

I did not read the rules and did not have any arguments with the mods. That topic has nearly 200 comments. Everyone is very happy to discuss and contribute. I think its more useful than topics about breasts or butts, but it's still deleted (the truth is I'm bad at math but admire people who are master at math)

You're probably right. I don't know much about gen Z but I'm glad if beautiful Ins photos bring them joy. And yes, I'm an 80's kid.

I used to think this is the reason. But every once in a while, there would be some trolls rolling in here, throw bait everywhere, get ignored and leave
The phrase "Winds of Winter" hurts my very soul.

I like the winter because It makes me remember my childhood when I was in sixth grade, I biked to school on the dike, one side was the field, one side was the river, bamboos made music following the cold wind, smoke flew above the river, flocks of swallows fly in the clear sky like the lyrst Mùa xuân đầu tiên, the only song make me goosebumps, I know you come from the south so it is hard you image the thing I wrote above, just I want to share with everyone here the best my memory until I die

That's such a sweet and beautiful memory. Reading it brought me a sense of peace!

I was joking about the book call "Winds of Winter" book 6 of 7 in the series "A Song of Ice and Fire" (or A Game of Thrones) which will never be released.
But yeah, I kinda get what you mean. Although I'm a Southerner, I'm blessed with many chances to travel and roam the earth. I know the calm serenity that come with the nature as we wander in it. I tasted the peace of mind as I let my soul run free with the world. Those moments, they rarely last long, but perhaps that is enough for me then.

Update: I'll say I did it 70% ok. I covered my presentation in time, the topic is interesting, other Professors have a lot of questions. However, after I failed to answers one question, the PI who gave the question asked my advisor and from there, all Professors started to communicate in Korean till the end.
I'm still not good enough, heh
