Users

According to Alexa Internet, Hong Kong Discuss Forum ranks as the fourth most visited website in Hong Kong, and the eighth most visited website in neighbouring Macau. Additionally, it is also within the top 100 most visited websites globally.[1]

The forum claims to be politically neutral and allow free speech. However, rights of users can be easily and readily prohibited, or down-graded. Users can be banned from posting or replying to any messages if the user posts anti-communist messages, messages against the Hong Kong government's public policies, or against any of the post-communist or communist peripheral organizations in Hong Kong. Many post-communist messages are placed at the default top of columns by the administrators which are intentionally twisting or misinterpreting history or news to make them favorable to the PRC communists.

Recent members' responses was that the forum was flooded with messages from the "Fifty cents Gangs" (五毛黨, the nickname of the peripheral organization of PRC communist party specially trained to manipulate communication over the Internet. They are officially named "Internet Modulators" ( (網絡評論員) and gained that nickname from the rumor that they can earn 50 cents on every post they send), who post massive numbers of messages as described above. The latest news reveals the suspicion that members of iProA, a communist peripheral organization in Hong Kong, is organizing all these activities in Hong Kong. They are funded to distribute these messages in cyber space, online forums, social media, YouTube, and more., in order to "brain-wash" the people of Hong Kong. Moreover, Hong Kong government officials are suspected of funding this organization indirectly by employing their services or unfairly contracting government services to the organization.[5]
