it wasn't good idea to share this here .

in the end i must mention that this site is because you meet people you dont know you should be positive and open minded

its not about money but about people who make rumos . if you read the thread you will find the big offensive and much ado about nothing ! because you are from leeds you must know that chakspear play .

everyone should be neutral at this site . rumos from not complete profiles is unfair

for sure it was suck for me this offensive because it start from the ambassador of cairo and moderator of cairo group

in the end he apology but after made a big rumos .

i am not going to define on my self ! and i am not going to cry . people who want to know the trust should follow the thread and see what dose it finished by , after my answer no one responded , the all of prices is clear in egypt :

here is my response :

-------------------------------------------

while some people were fighting here about organizing some meetings I was too busy in cs meetings to follow the thread .
about the regular meeting :

if the regular meeting did not work before so that dose not mean it will not work this days . it could work just if we make something interesting on it .

for example we make flucca party every week . since 14 weeks

we make it Friday or Thursday and some times Saturday

some of events we make it official event and some of them we don’t make it officiall event . but generally we always a good number of people and there is always new comers .

some seasons there is no new comers but that dose not mean to stop cs meeting because of it . cs meeting could be just to meet 2 or 3 people . so the organizer should organize some people at least to go out and it is actually the same like hanging out with your friends .

something special we need to make in the meetings



for example in our flucca meetings we always choose the time of sun set . so people who will come to the meeting will do ( cruising in the nile ) at the same time of the sun set . that is sound really interesting for foreigners and also for me .

next week end we will make another flucca party so anyone are more than welcome from the people who didn’t make it before



I want to mention something . we made more than 50 meetings in the last 3 months

what people should know is the old army is not the same generation of the new active cs community this days . the old army made a lot of meetings . now days the new active cs community are more easy go because they are really younger and they don’t have that much work as the old army

everytime there is new active people . the ambassadors should have few hours just to reply messages and in groups and they don’t have to make the events . so mohamed you can make cs meeting . and you don’t have to ask anybody to organize it .

actually I wanna say that cs meetings by old army it was my start . now there is many other people make meetings in cairo like shady khidr , basil , and others

so there is no one should make any events
otherwise everyone can make cs meeting when it is according for cs organization terms

flucca price :

http://www.couchsurfing.org/group_read.html?gid=33410&post=6751963

* 40 pounds per hour for 1-9 person

* 50 pounds per hour for 10-15 person

* 60 pounds per hour for 16- 20 person

plus 10 pounds for each flucca man per hour

all people who make flucca they share the total price

notice : if there is any stuff like poons and dishes ... it collect to the total price


IF SOMEONE BRING SOME DISHES OR CUPS AND EVERYONE USE IT IN THE FLUCCA SO THAT’S MEAN WE SHOULD SHARE ON IT ALSO because its not part of the flucca dish party

DISHES AND STUFF COASTING AROUND 15 – 30 POUNDS
AND IN THIS CASE EVERYONE SHOULD SHARE IT INCASE WE ALL NEED IT

THAT’S MEAN THAT FLUCCA COASTING MINUIMUM 50 POUNDS AND MAXIMUM 70 POUNDS PLUS THAT STUFF ( 15 – 30 POUNDS )


AS EIHAB MAHER MENTIONED IN THE CS MEETING THEY PAID A LOT OF MONEY FROM THEIR POCKET BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE FORGET TO PAY . I REMEMBER AT THIS MEETING :

http://www.couchsurfing.org/meetings.html?mid=76191

THERE WERE AROUND 70 POUNDS LOWER

PEOPLE WHO SHARED THE 70 POUNDS :

HAYTHAM SABRY , PETER LEY , HOUSSAM SOULTAN , EIHAB HAMED , EIHAB MAHER ,( ME ) SHADY NOOR , AND SHADY KHIDR

THIS IS ONE OF THE MEETING WICH I ATTENDED AND WE PAID FROM OUR POCKET


NEXT MEETING IF WE ARE BIG NUMBER OF PEOPLE WE WILL MAKE GROUP FROM 5 PEOPLE TO COLLECT THE MONEY FROM OTHERS

( rumours can be far from the reality because people modify and take from real facts only some parts.
to accuse one member on words heard is not healthy! )

NATHINE KIM , HE CAME TO FLUCCA DISH PARTY 4 TIMES . HE BRING HIS FRIENDS THE LAST TWO FLUCCA .

He said I am ( khirty ) and I ripp the people up

I sent report about him and follow it by some people trust worthy links ( as a witness in the same meetings )

About football match or café everyone know the prices . in borsa area
in borsa café ( 4 -5 ) pounds
3 pounds if you sit in the borsa at café on the street from the side of gaz station

2 pounds if you sit between the buildings

anyone can go and ask about the prices there . please do that

I didn’t say my opinion about nathinel . the post up was just collecting by some friends and you can notice that the words had written like this ( him ) when it was talking about ( me )


some words nathinel used it by wrong way . I don’t know what is the problem when I tell the officer I am a lawyer to help him to go inside the stadium .

he used facebook and couchsurfing to Harm to the reputation of the members . according to cs terms this is unfair

nathinel have no experience about cs else in our cs meetings so when he saw someone very helpful like me he couldn’t realize that this site all of it for free . some people still till today don’t know that cs is just helping people and you are happy for that . so this philosophy of cs is not able to realize by some Mentalities .


some people cant realize the cs point and philosophy

back to regular cs meetings

nowdays flucca is good idea for our regular cs meetings incase it is the summer

I have some ideas about the winter and I will share it soon

I am inn any meeting will happnen in cs ( inshallah ) and I want to suggest this group for public :
http://www.couchsurfing.org/group.html?gid=33410
For locals cs . I want to say that locals are the people who move the gatherings .

Mohamed khledy
Basil
Moussa said
Sam
Moahmed abdelrahman

This locals are great ! they were always offering help and couches for other foringers and they were Participate by time and help to the others .

This kinda of active csers in egypt we need them in our community .



http://www.couchsurfing.org/group.html?gid=33410

I will put all the daily meetings here in this group . so anyone more than welcome to join us .

Now everything are clear . so everyone can join and organize events with us


Something belong to our egyption culture ( incase we are muslim country ) I wanna mention something in the holly quran .

The holy quran ( mentioned something means like this ) :

If someone said some news so you must verify it ) )




This is our culture and we should make our Attitudes matching with it .


I willnt allow to any person to say that I make money from this site . I understand this site very well . and i will fight for the rights .in our system CouchSurfing is careful to protect members' freedom of expression.

So everyone should read the abuse :

http://www.couchsurfing.org/abuse_help

check all the abusive and not abusive .

According for cs terms and the last not abusive there is no abusive at this meeting

http://www.couchsurfing.org/meetings.html?mid=85046

or in any meeting the price mentioned before of it and the organizer didnt make money from it

any body can say what thy want but abusive should be following by abusive event , group , group post or message .


( Considering that is MUCH MORE EASY to accuse than to organize a better felucca trip or dealing a better price for it )

( sorry that this thread is transformed into something else. though i also have to comment here, though is a little bit more far from the main post...


old members, new members, organizers, cs ambassadors or even administrators that will read this we are all the same. all members can organize meetings / events / camps / etc. the difference is that old members can be more experienced. i say can be, because not all ambassadors / members organize events.

when a meeting is organized the price is should be set clear so all will agree and decide if they participate or not before the event and not after. members are free to leave if they don't like / feel something is strange / other reasons.

in case a reference is needed it should be written! good (positive) or bad (negative)... this is what we count on: the other person's (member) opinion!

most of the time many rumours are present, but in my humble opinion rumours can be far from the reality because people modify and take from real facts only some parts )


Now everything is clear . nobody can make money from this site .

if someone said that this event coast something you should basicly trust that person if you dont trust or you think its coasting .20 pts dollar more or whatever so you should go and ask by your self about the price . or you should get a real evidence . otherwise it will be more easier to stop cs meeting than make great one .


so lets go peter lets and organize regular meetings by two meetings every month and we all will support each other by invite our cs friends . i think that cafe in zamalek was really good place .

all best
