You Are Here

I have not reported many comments as I feel that a bit of chat or sarcasm is allowed there but I have minded the long walls of text by a certain user and would not mind reporting the worst of those.

I am fascinated by the Indian Railways discount chart he posed though: indianrailways.gov.in/railwayboard/uploads/directorate/…

New word: Askhole

Intuitively, it's tempting to associate work with expats and tourism with travel, but that's not the way it works.

Some people like to 'clean' old content, which I feel does not need being cleaned.

I vote troll.

The other good thing about saying "no" is that you don't have to fill in a visa application for another 10 years!

mods, what should we do with Joe Blow? Most of his comments provide zero value, should I flag each of them independently?

If your mobile phone gets stolen, dial 999!

i feel bad for any americans here

If there was a secret hat for cheating, we would get a dozen each..

@CMaster Very funny. You're hilarious. Now, how does it separate the water from the other chemicals?

@MarkMayo I sometimes have the feeling the reputation change is delayed to make guessing who downvoted more difficult…

@MarkMayo yes, I would charge somebody 20k Sterling for something like that. Minimum. :)

time to stop Mark, 6 are enough for you

@hippietrail I was actually surprised to see the "has the community been everywhere" post wasn't posted by Mark to congratulate himself on visiting every single country out there

FYI @MarkMayo is the only pingable mod at the time of writing.

What's with the spelling obsession?

Do we know why dda left? His/her question editing+tagging was fantastic (and badly underappreciated and under-acknowledged)

Yes, you can convert rep to miles on Unicorn Airlines, which is part of the Stack Alliance.

Thanks to our pro-tem mods @MarkMayo and @VMAtm for their service in building the community. We will do our best to support and develop the site to make it the first stop for any travel-related question one might have!

I hereby proudly announce that Travel SE will again participate in this year's Winter Bash!

Answers don't have to be at the top of the list to be useful. Hence we frown upon quality content deletion on SE.

@Willeke Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.

Travel SE is amazing...

@JoErNanO i sold the string from my shoes to increase my travel budget

sometimes a good answer makes a bad question a good question

"Is it a breach of my human rights to not be allowed the cheapest ticket when crossing the English Channel with my Dog?"

There, I spent about half an hour on the unanswered queue. Did lots of voting, and added three answers. That makes a little bit of a dent.

launching in a few hours!

@RoryAlsop I have made my longest roadtrip so far this year - around 3000 km in 10 days, most of them in the Alps

It appears so :-) Happy New Year when it comes for you

I cannot find words to express how truly horrible it is that posts like this can be deleted without any communication with the user. How does that look from their perspective? How does that make TSE a more friendly place? This is not spam, it is a thoughtfully composed plea for help that was posted in the wrong place. How is that person supposed to find the right place?

what about "Best of 2020" - the photos must be from 2020

@MarkMayo naked - just to make sure you aren't carrying weapons or drugs...

A friend of mine joked that the next James Bond movie will just be Bond waiting two hours in the "other citizens" line at CDG

^ ^ I'm always confused about whether or not something is ironic, but I think that qualifies...

you're watching porn?

@CGCampbell No worries. Keep up the good work.

meme for today: tell a man which cabin his window is in: 10 votes. teach a man how to look out the window: 3 votes

you know, I've had fairly minimal interaction with this site all year, popped into chat because Mark @'d me and I thought it would be nice to say hello to people I haven't talked to in a while, and then when I said I was done with this, you decided to @ me to scold me some more.

this has long passed the point of being fun. I'm out.

I want the Coming Up Roses badge, but that's going to be near impossible on travel at present

taking a swing on the workplace, they get a lot of answers per question

@JonathanReez I believe in you ;) Let's get the top 3 network positions, guys ;)

12 on travel / 20 on network @JonathanReez ;) still didn't get that comment one tho

@mts there's nothing better than a vague travel plan if you can afford the uncertainty :)

9 on travel now :D
