You have been on this board for a while. Hence you will know there is nothing to expect in terms of quality posts and that the quantity posts with drivel will continue. The quality of posters make the quality of posts. As long as you have posters on here who have so much to say on topics like hookers, pimps and brothels in Pattaya or on using fake degree documents in China or similar topics unrelated to ESL and teaching, things will not change. I have it on good authority that within the next four months or so such posters will no longer be around and that they have to look elsewhere to post their drivel.

I have posted some information on my activities in Nepal as a volunteer regarding language reform, language policies in a multilingual nation and education. Though not directly related to ESL, these are topics that are of concern to any qualified ESL teacher who when working abroad can reasonably be expected to be sensitive and aware in cross-cultural terms. I did not really get any intelligent reply to these posts except the usual drivel, which is symptomatic for the current posters audience on this board. It is not what its name suggests - a teachers board.
