I believe the mailing list is intended for all community members to raise questions and engage in discussions. Yes, it is. When they are meaningful questions and discussions. Yes, I have a different perspective from Karl, and my intention is to contribute to the improvement of the internet governance structure by expressing my views and questioning APNIC. Is there something wrong with that? There is nothing wrong with expressing views and asking the difficult questions. It's how people and organisations are kept honest. Having said that, it's the same rhetoric over and over again even though concerns are addressed. Are you suggesting that we should not question the RIR structure? See my point above. Furthermore, I still don't understand why my question regarding the campaign was labeled as spam. I had a genuine inquiry, and seeking clarification is a natural response. What is the issue with that? If it was a genuine query, you would have emailed the Secretariat or event organisers directly instead of a public mailing list.

He has been one of the most vocal supporters defending the community whereas it seems yourself and others simply raise questions in an attempt to cast doubt over APNIC as a whole. Questions such as asking about whether or not an NRS-branded vehicle being parked out the front of the hotel and photos being taken to win a $10 Amazon gift card is a part of the conference is sanctioned (when it's clearly not as it's not listed anywhere on the APNIC or APRICOT websites) is nothing short of spam.

I am inquiring with APNIC to determine if the campaign in question is an official one. I want to clarify that I am not connected with NRS and do not possess any details regarding it. I apologize if this disappoints you. Furthermore, if you claim that I am spamming for NRS, it is evident that you are also spamming for APNIC. Let's strive to respect everyone's perspectives. I value your viewpoint as well.

I recently came across a post on Twitter promoting the #SnapAndWin campaign with the hashtags #apricot2024. The post encourages participants to snap a picture with a specified car, tweet it and win a $10 Amazon gift card USD. I would like to inquire whether this campaign is an official Apricot 2024 event ? Additionally, as I am attending the event online, I am interested in knowing if online participants can also join this campaign and be eligible for the mentioned rewards. Your clarification on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and assistance. Best regards,
