I met Joey on last Saturday (cause I posted I will be at Bui Vien st with myfriend and who can join), and He didnt kill me or said bad words as someone used. Make it easy! :D. Maybe He is not normal as someone said but he has noone in Vietnam to believe. Hm! I dont like talking to him too, but he is not a bad person!
* Trang Pham: I read your comment and YOU MAKE ME SCARED. You said If someone is a new member and no real picture and comments from other people on this CS in profile that means their words are nothing to the other. Hm! If that's real, Im nothing too, and I maybe think about leaving this CS because of someone like you!

I have never met Joey,
but I have read a few of his messages.
I found his language is cordial
and respectful,
he never uses
offensive words.
Unlike some strong critical languages written about him that borderline egregiousness. To me, Joey appears just a lonely soul wanting to reach out. If you can help a person, it is all good. We need more of random acts of kindness to be conceived. But remember, help never asks for a return.
I fully understand that there are any number of situations and behaviors out there that should not be tolerated. But in the peculiar case of eccentric Joey, I wonder what is the real crime? There is none. Are we too self-righteous btw? It is bothersome to me following these posts is the growing lack of human acceptance exhibited in our daily dialogue. It's not only confined to this site, but it is everywhere in our becoming intolerant world. Sanctimonious stances abound.
Nowadays, it almost seems we are increasingly adopting the critic's mentality on anything. Everyone is holding a rigid standard that closes on tolerance just to see who is in or out of it. The concept of Live and Let Live is fast disappearing and now it is Live as I want u to Live.
What has changed within human nature that we are unable to accept anything that does not meet our own ways of thinking. If society has to grow and become rich in humanity than we have to accept our differences as well as our limitations. Look at nature-everything subsists under the common grounds and each every life lives in perfect accordance to their inherent nature. Imagine if we had only lions and jackals roaming the world not allowing any other creature to do their own role to support nature’s laws. This would lead us to a doom of natural imbalance. We need the big trees as well as the small shrubs.
We also need courage to rise above our own prejudice and collective fear. I have to admit that sometimes I am definitely more of the cup-is-half-empty kind of guy. But I always try hard to point out the part that is half full. I would love to see our society learn to use our critical abilities toward more positive outcomes. If we can see the fault, then surely we can also see a workaround. If we can see what's missing, surely we can also see what could be added to improve the situation. Please, let Joey be Joey.
We have to embrace diversity, it's the only way to be alive.

May I ask how many people did help him so far? What did you do to help him in the past? As I counted from your comments, there were around two or three people who had met him in person and did something called "help" to him. Is that called "many"?
Someone said he gave Joey a drive from his place to an event venue in District 2. Is it that you called a "help"? As I read somewhere in a book, when we help someone, we dont need that one says thanks back to us. Since this world is round, someday some people will help us in another case.
Did Joey really do anything harmful to anyone? Or he was hated and against by some people because he forgot to be thankful to them?
I did not see Joey say any bad things about or be impolite to other members from his posts / replies. One problem is he created many different profiles and kept spamming the site with non-sensible questions. I totally support Smirking's post. I think it's necessary to warm people about Joey 's perfomance since he created a potental threat to others' safety.
However I am disappointed when seeing many haters here. Some of us have taken the problem personally and used some violent words to a member, such as "kick him out of the human being groups/ the country"! I was annoyed by many spams made by Joey but I dont hate him. Maybe he needs a "real help" in this small world!
Maybe it's non of my business but I need to say something.
Even though Joey's posts might be a pain or someone feels like he needs to warn people about him (which might be a good idea), there is absolutely NO reason to get personal and insult him in public.

Your choice of words is not appropriate and you should know better than that!
When you created you CS-Profile you agreed that you will not defame anyone. But you are doing that.
I know of a guy who who lost his profile because of that.
If Joey is in an unstable condition post like this will not help him either.
So please try to write objective and without any insults.
Like Austin said: there is too much hate in this world already.
Cheers heaps!
