A humble request

Dear professional friends

 

I have following request to make.  In order to limit the wastage of precious time of the user(s) let we the members of this forum do the following:

 

a) Try to frame query in 'Precise' and 'Concise' terms

b) Dont Cross post. i.e, Avoid Duplicate Postings which unfortunately is happening rampantly in this forum

c)Please do not post improper, incorrect information or link (please make sure before posting - the link is correct and the information is proper).

We have to behave in a responsible manner if the objectives of this forum is to be realised.

I would like to add one more thing here - some members are using vulgur and abusive language in the forum which is in stark contrast to the professionalism we vouch for.Let us refrain from it . I would also invite your comments on this.

Its good the rules are there.  But I feel, you have to reiteratre the rules to all the members of this forum once again explicitly.  No one really is likely to have visited the link.  If at all they have visited, I doubt if they have thorougly understood them. 

Now since the members have already grown over 10,000, it would be an extracting task to manage them.  It has therefore become increasingly necessary to tutor the members of this forum with all the rules and regulations in order to preserve the sanctity of the forum.

 

Now coming to the vulagarity of the messages.  Yes I am quite serious.  I had seen some vulgur as well as abusive replies.  Now as you have stated that action is generally taken within minutes, its quite possible that they were either deleted by the person who had posted them or were deleted by you - as I did not find them the next time I checked the post.  Hence I am not in a position now to substantiate the facts that I have stated.
