I agree Sajha is not too blame for its postings, because "kurakani' by design is a public forum. But I do have something to say about the mudslinging that takes place here and is threatening to get out of hand.

Its all good when  you, disguised under a login name, sling mud at another 'login' name. But when you do it using real names, then it becomes 'personal' not 'public'. I am not an expert when it comes to the legalities of this, but common folks are not 'celebrities' nor people running for public offices, and therefore should not be subjected to such defamation.

Imagine, if this manifested itself into a site with personal vendettas and allegations with real names. I have seen many instances in the past where anonymous sajha users have defamed others using their  'real' names. It has also happened via other channels such as abuse of group email addresses.

I know Sajha has grown leaps and bounds since inception, and I am proud of the things it has done to bring our community together. But I also feel Sajha is more or less a Nepalese- centric portal, and things such as these are magnified in our community. I do not know the people who were mentioned in that thread, and I do not know if the allegations are true or false, all I know is that they and their families must be going through some very trying times right now.

Sajhaites, put yourself in that position. How would you react?  And remember, it could happen to anyone of us.
