gahugoro,
good lil' anecdote there. i concur, i concur.
here's the one i was talking about:
here's the one i was talking about:
Already time for closing statements? He he No one going to filibuster this? So this finally boils down to Om Mai Padme Hum, huh? Oh you bodhisattvas of compassion! 
I have enjoyed the conversation and hope most of you did too. As I said earlier, I think there is a bit of both that is required to deal with difficult people.The main difference, as I see it, at least amongst most of us, seems to be the degree and order of the method to be used. Clearly there are total pacifists too and total warriors, but I get the sense many of us here are probably both depending on the circumstances. As always, that's the sensible middle regardless of which side of that middle you might be leaning towards.
That said, San bro, I look forward to the changes, if any, that you said might be coming this weekend. I realize you have received some flak for the changes already and will prolly receive some more, and it's ultimately your call which way you want to take Sajha, but I want to reiterate that once we get past the adoption and learning curves, I think what you have done is the right thing and it will bear fruit. It is a very sensible approach and is the way of the future, in my opinion, and I am glad to see you headed in that direction.
Sum Off -
Jeez, what a ride! From your thread becoming San's Dingo's lunch, to the new layout, to US politics, to Hillary's body parts, to trolls and bullies, courage and peace - I've enjoyed the ride! Thanks for the thread. I look forward to the US politics discussion whenever that works out for you.
Thanks and best wishes to the rest. Hope to see you all around and enjoy your weekend.

"To go against the dominant thinking of one's friends,of most of the people one sees every day, is perhaps one of the most difficult tests of character one faces in life "

I dunno what specifically you guys mean by "groupies", but for me having groups does not equate to any sense of exclusiveness. I look at groups as ways of organizing and presenting content pretty much on the lines of lets say a My Space or Google. Some discussions are best had in large groups and some in smaller groups. Anyone could subscribe to these groups and it this would help customize their Sajha experience to their specific needs. Sajha needs both a Tudikhel/Hyde Park-type open environment, which Kurakani provides, as well as a more controlled discussion environment so that different types of debate can take place IMO.
Anyways, I think San bro's probably taken up as many suggestions as he reasonably can for the moment, so it might be a bit premature to talk about groups at this point.
Samsara said "Someone needs to put these wannabes back in place and we do need the wildcards WITH VALID REASONINGS to shut a few of these cats down (BC, Bhaley, I are the few who come to mind...Hell no, ain't friggin promoting myself here"
LOL. As well intended as your statement was, I am glad you stopped where you did. I think commitment and concern for Sajha and it's content should not translate to vigilantism because it could backfire if not done right or if people perceive you are pushing too much into their space. Just a thought.
Loote said "Bring it on"
OK here goes: "Loote is SNDY's puppy, nya nya nya nya nya na"
Seriosuly, would I ever do such a thing, Loote?

Capt. saab, I haven't read the most of the posts, but since you addressed me:
"Brig Ma'am -
Good to hear your thoughts. So you also subscribe to the Loote school of bully management, huh? :) Having known you all these months, my gut tells me you are a much more courageous woman than you want us to believe with that statement you put out. I have a hard time believing that you'd be able to ignore a neighbor who smashed your window and emotionally hurt you and those around you. Not once but a couple of times. If you wouldn't put up with such an act in your everyday life, forgive me for expressing disbelief in your 'ignore' policy here on Sajha"
-I wouldn't wait for my neighbor to smash my window couple of times nor would I show my courage and go fight with him/ her..I would rather call police ni..in Sajha's case, San :)..You don't go and fight with those murkhas...For me, fighting them is not showing courage..it's stupidity..and believe me, there's a thin line between courage and stupidity..
And yes, Loote is SNDY's puppy, and SNDY is Loote's mummy..he he..jpt..all in Cafe spirit hai..

while i'm at it, just wanted to tell you san bro that we need to have a separate section for 'science/technology' instead of or in addition to the more specific one we have now: computer/I.T.
