Kibkom North Cyprus Forum

Hi all and welcome to the Kibkom Forum.

I would like to start by saying a big thank you for all your support in trying to get this forum off the ground. I would, hence, like to donate 1TL for every New Topic posted (each Topic posted must have atleast 2 replies) , from now until the 8th May 2001, to a nominated TRNC charity. There has to date been 20 topics posted so far with 2 or more replies, adding 20TL to the pot.

This is how it will work
Member can nominate a TRNC charity within this post (Reply), over the next 2 weeks. Last nomination must be in by end of 21st April 2012.
I will then set up a poll for the list of nominated charities, of which members will be able to vote for, up until the 30th April 2012.
The charity with the most votes will receive the donation that has accumulated over the above set period, on Sat 7th July 2012.

Please read the forum rules and keep to them. (gulp)

Nominations are now OPEN!

Hi . I think it is about time the less 'fashionable' charities had some help. I agree with Marions, my vote goes to the Kemal Saracoglu foundation. A big thank you to you Suner, for the kind gesture.

well thats a good idea something going back for a change well done!

Yes, Andrew, but which charity would YOU suggest.

Im with Marion, share it round a bit, there does seem to be the same Charity"s in the forfront, not that against that and try to always try to help out, but give the not so well known a chance.

Well done to Soner for the donation.

In fact ive got 3 Kiddies electric cars for sale on Kibkom and i will donate 50 tl from the sale of each one to Marion;s choice of Charity.

Ruggy, we can help other charities along the way. This donation will come out my own pocket, and I am not loaded I can assure you. lol. But - will do my best to keep this theme of backing charities as we go along.

I would to nominate Kanser Hastalarina Yardim Dernegi/Help Those With Cancer Association. Founded 1993. we have the 5 th highest cancer rate per population in the world. 15 new cases are being diagnosed on average per week, at least one of which is from the Ex-Pat community. The Aims of the Association To improve the lives of everyone living with cancer, To raise awareness of cancer in the TRNC. To strive for better cancer care in the TRNC.
In the last 3 months alone the Association has paid out more than 130,000TL to the Ex-pat community.

The Association provides practical support, financial support if possible and perhaps most importantly social and psychological support.

They need us to help them to support sufferers and theirs families, regardless of race or creed.

Nice one Soner.

I have made a new posting in the hope that little Ismail may get some help for his new arm. He's a little fighter and has been through so much in his short life. He has a small band of supporters behind him all the way and they all try hard. Well done to them all.

Spider.X

Its far better to be a giver than a taker.

Come on members, I total the pot at 58TL only so far. You can do better than that, I expect to donate much much more than that, but it's down to you. Get your friends to register and join in to make that pot overflow with cash. (erm..maybe not overflow but reasonably full... gulp).

Well done Soner for a great and very thoughtful gesture.

My vote goes with Marions as well.

All charities are excellent and perhaps every 3 or 6 months a different charity could benefit.

Thank you Mel7348 in msg 10 for your support.

Working as a volunteer for Help Those With Cancer Association, of course I am going to nominate them but I also like Meggymoo's idea of changing the charity every so often so that all can benefit from this generous offer.

Welcome to the forum, Scoobydoo - where were you?
Will do best to help many charities in TRNC, this is my main aim - but need to get this forum working inorder to achieve this.

Good on you Soner, Im happy for the money to go to any of the childrens charities to improve their lives in any way possible.

war of the roses!!!!!!!!!!

I think I must be having a senior moment here, as I am not sure wha tyou mean. do you mean it is the War of the roses in so far as they are all a beautiful bunch of flowers and so difficult to choose which is the most beautiful? and are you going to post your old profile picture from Cyprus 44, or will you use a new one?

Welcome Yorgozlu! Lost me there too - War of the Roses with Michael Douglas?

hmmmmmm,lovely imagination.As for my 'old' picture,that realy is old however,re-sizing pictures seem to be a little problem here since the ones I'd like to you are too big......apearently!

Soner,you forgot Danny De-Vito

mail sent Soner,along with a picture.Thanks and have a good day.

yorgozlu, not received yet....must be on a yavas yavas internet service.

yorgozlu, OK, very funny, you sent the mail by donkey - right?

Soner wrote:yorgozlu, OK, very funny, you sent the mail by donkey - right?

sorry,just checked,failed to be sent,dont know why?Will re-send.

funny you should mention 'donkey' as I have 1 outside.

LOL, file may be too big. Better to actually send it by donkey if this is the case.

Still not very good, only 83TL in the donation pot. We need some help by the looks of it.....Some of your friends maybe? Ask them to register and start posting.

Yorgozlu, is that donkey...........still outside your house?

The donkey arrived in record time.

Hi Mel7348, could not make any connection myself, but will keep an eye that we do not have these problems - my moderators will also act on posts that may do damage to the forum or cause a stir with members.
Thank you for your concern, much appreciated.

Yorguzlu,
Message was not deleted beacuase I was still looking for it. Please lets not bring up these sensitive issues on this forum.

Soner,issues only become sensetive when 'they' involve ME in it with no right.I do not have the manifesto that I have for nothing nor I beleive.And to top it up,when I reply to message that has accused me of something I know nothing nor interested to know anything about it,my replies get deleted,twice,while the mentined message still exists.
Either delete and then investigate or let the other person defend.

We have a mutual friend if you want to know anything about me.We've known each other since I was 13.I'm now 48.


Salahi AKINCI

Hi Salahi, I do not wish to offend anybody nor will I judge character through what is posted on a forum. We are all individuals and have our own opinions, sometimes we may agree or disagree on situations. I do not want this forum to end up becoming a battlefield nor do I wish for me to start wasting time investigating problems that may occur on the forum due to differences of opinion. So - inorder to try and keep the peace on the forum I will delete messages I think may create a stir and drag on until abuse starts to kick in. As mentioned, message was deleted late due to not remembering where it was in the first place and being constantly side-tracked with all the work I have on.

I hope there are no ill feelings and you all continue to contribute and make good use of information posted on this forum.

Regards,

The Other Person unreservedly apologises, please I hope you will accept them. I did say that I hoped you were a genuine poster and I hope you will continue to suppport this forum.

Kind regards

No need to apologise.Everyone knowing I'm not involved in any charity what so ever is enough for me,other then the one at home.

116 TL in the pot and rising!

As Marion, I wote for KSF, Lefkoşa and the 40 children wıth cancer.
Where I come from hospital clowns are widely used to cheer up very ill children, and at the same time the children often have cakes and juice, if they can, while enjoying the clowns, having a good laugh. If KSF is running with the 'pot', I would be happy to pay for the intertainment by a couple of clowns (hmm)

Hey Banjo - i like the 'tune' you play. You are on! If the vote is for KSF, i will make sure that the kids have some clowns in their lives. The KSF periodically arranges 'parties' and events for the children and their families, and this would be a great addition.
I agree with you entirely, it is said that laughter is the best medicine, so 'make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh, make 'em laugh. ' (a song but I can't remember the first line.

I go for KSF as well. I was going for one of the other cancer charities having suffered two different ones so far, but think it is so hard on the families of children with cancer, that they all need help and cheer.

I calculate that there is 130TL so far in the pot. You all are making this painless for me. I am sure members can do better. Let's see some great new posts and replies to follow. Only 12 days to go inorder to get this pot to overflow.

I will close this topic. Please continue here: http://www.kibkom.com/forum/en/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=570
