Welcome Back

Readers Write

 

Welcome back.

I hope people crossing limits of decency must have realised by now as to what an editor can do to them. Here we have a very beautiful forum where we so-called intellectuals can discuss any issue and even criticise others in a positive way. But what have we done? Just in order to portray ourselves as the master of all wisdom existing on this earth we write anything having no regard for other's sentiments and beliefs. I sincerely hope this bitter dose of closing this forum for a fortnight must have served its purpose. I have noticed people otherwise writing beautifully crossing the limits. It had gone to such a stinking level that I had stopped participating.

Anyway, let us begin a fresh start from here. We have all realised our mistake which must not be repeated henceforth. It takes a little to be decent in thoughts and writing. I have a few suggestions: (a) No discussion on religions and personal beliefs be allowed (b) We should not criticise others only for the sake of criticism, rather we should appreciate others view and try to see the reason (c) We should try to convince others by logic.

I am sure by applying these simple rules we can make this forum more productive, informative and a place to be associated with.
 

Comments:
I completely agree with Anjum. There shouldn't be any personal or religious war here. This forum gives us opportunity to discuss various issues related to Bihar and we should harness it instead of spoiling it. - Nitesh Ambuj, Pune - Mar. 2, 2006

May I add one more suggestion to the list already suggested by Mr Parwej to keep emotions under check? We should avoid referring the authors by their first names. This may help us in reminding ourselves to pay due respect to them and avoid being personal in criticising their views. - Awadhesh Prasad, Canberra, Australia - Mar. 3, 2006

Discussion on this topic is now closed.
