Dear Indus lady (and all members),

It is time we had some ZERO tolerance policy on behalf of us poor members too...

While you seem to wield unlimited and unquestionable powers to BAN people from you site on what you feel as improper , it is very clear to me that some of you moderating ladies have occupied high citadels here without any accountability to members..

I have been at the receiving end of some harsh restrictive poicies of late from the 'moderators' of the site who are anything but moderate, in fact quite extreme... which included precluding my blog from NEW POSTS option without information and informing me 'casually' post-facto that I need to tell you the subjects in advance and take permissions from you, My signature was edited using administraor previleges and chopped off of my personal email and site links..agian without my prior permission...

All this, in spite of participating in this forum actively like a 'perfect gentlemen within what they call certain levels of decency' ( I have been named as one of the most active members recently too) after I received a mail from Induslady saying We miss you and can we tempt you back? etc...

In all, it reeks of very resrtictive, undemocratic and anti-member policies which are very rare to be seen in Internet of late...

Please frame certain policies which are pro-member and adopt some liberal attitude towards active members...Bring some transparency into your system..IL'ites badly need it and deserve it!..
C'mon, what about OUR rights, then?

If you do not beleive me, Indus lady, conduct an opinion poll and find out how many of the members would support you on unilateral matters that I have described above...

I am waiting to banned for opening MY MOUTH...( feels like Soviet Russia here! )( Whew!)

Regards,

Nkumar

Mr NKumar,

Before you get all worked up over imagined slights and what not, please read our forum etiquette at www.indusladies.com/fe and also the new member orientation section at New Member Orientation - Read this to know this site!

My suggestion would be for you to go through it and study these well.

Your posting outside links to your blog and your personal email in your signature was violative of # 5 in the FE guidelines that say - "Links to external sites are not allowed in your signature."

Our policies also advise against posting personal info anywhere on the open forum like phone # , email id etc.

This is not an 'anything goes' site and all of us (including the members) work hard towards keeping an environment of civility, comfort and safety here.

Please help to keep it that way.

Regards,
Aarushi

Dear Madam Aarushi,

Please reply to my following post pasted below with the snapshot on ask Induslady thread ( Ask Questions To IndusLady about IL FORUMS) of yesterday where a goof -up / slip up was reported by me in your toolbar of the Edit signature field which allows one to post Hyperlinks and Insert email Ids.. Please answer WHY

As I Understand from having been a moderator a of a few yahoo and google groups and forums myself, the term 'external links' that you have used is meant to mean ONLY COMMERCIAL AND SOLICITING SITES, selling things by Internet marketing and not to a member's own email ID which he is using on the same forum and vertainly not his personal webpage.
( In fact many forums like yours, ask a member to name your email Ids, whether it is to be visible to members and the URL of one's webpages!!)

In such a case as yours, how do you expect members to interact, know and understand each other?

This is an oppressive and restrictive policy, Yet I will choose to remain on this forum and respect your RULES...unless of course you choose to eliminate me....

With utmost obedience and having been chastened, I remain,

Your sincerely

Nkumar

My dear lady,

Oh, Thanks, How nice of you to tell me NOW!

Will you kindly tell me WHY you provide a toolbar containing Hyperlink button , IF YOU ARE AGAINST US POSTING WEB AND EMAIL LINKS IN SIGNATURE... SEE YOUR SIGNATURE EDIT WINDOW BELOW:



I am not new to Internet forums and I have been on SO MANY FORUMS AND LISTS than I can care to count...Nowhere has anyone asked me to reveal my subjects of blogs for pre-approval and certainly not tried censoring tricks like deleting hyperlinks from one's signature after allowing it on their own toolbar...

Please redesign your toolbar, disable or grey out your buttons WHICH YOU DON'T LIKE/ALLOW and KINDLY PLEASE tell us in ADVANCE of your restrictive policies.. .


THANKS VERY MUCH!
