Any form of moderation is never going to please everyone. We generally wait for an indeterminate amount of time to see if a forum will get back on track, and, if it doesn't, we lock or delete it.
As for banning users, those we deem to be trolling just for the fun of it are removed.
The goal of the forums is to provide a place for discussing issues of sustained relevance to those living in or interested in Yunnan. When any of them result in flame wars or personal attacks, we reserve the right to moderate at our discretion. But remember, we are just as human as everyone else and make decisions that may, from time to time, be unpopular.
We want GoKunming to remain a place where people discuss what is important to them, but preferably in a civil manner. The forums are generally more cool-headed, informative and entertaining than most, and we hope that distinction can be maintained.
I think what's been passed around on social media is a 2013 environmental impact assessment of a proposed bridge. It can found here:

Nothing in the news currently, but we will keep an eye out for it. If anyone has any new info, please post it here.
Thread was deleted because we should have moved the post to classifieds before anyone commented. Our bad. We were too slow.
No results found.
Passable no-frills Dongbei food including lots of dumplings, tofu, disanxian and other standards. Fair prices too.
A pleasant surprise hiding inconspicuously inside the Second Ring Road. Go for the temple, stay for the lovely forested park and its ample solitude.
Excellent service even when packed and the food is top notch. Great group of owners too.
Had the buffet here recently. A bit expensive but discounts are available for groups. Seafood, including crab, lobster and sushi were all fantastic. European and Chinese dishes were great as well. Beer was included with dinner. Overall, excellent service and food.
Excellent dumplings for omnivores, vegetarians and carnivores. This is a hole in the wall joint with no frills, but the owners are friendly and the dumplings are just right. Five stars if they get higher quality vinegar.

Volunteering in Kunming's forgotten 'urban villages'
Posted byThese places are home to "thousands of immigrants from the countryside". Many of these families have extreme difficulty finding ways to register their kids to attend schools, much less pay for tuition. So no, many of them don't go to class.
As for the sandwiches, that was an introductory activity, what teachers call a 'warmer', to gain trust, establish comfort and make sure the kids come back the next time.
