Depressing Trend - Need For Rules - Page 2

First of all we need a 'rules and regulations' post which is sticky, so that any new member joining in can read it and understand properly. This is available for forums of serials like Maan Rahe Pita, which hardly has any members. But our forum has more active members, yet there are no formal list of rules.

We really cannot prevent people from posting their views. It is an open forum after all. We may have differing views. But just as some of us have 'agreed to disagree' on some issues, we must choose to ignore such posts. We must learn to live in peace and harmony unless it becomes too irritating, like a few months back after the Madam P episode we had a bunch of her fans coming in and opening a crappy thread here.

We know the regular members here. If we find any of us(including me) misbehaving, the others can issue a warning through PM or an open post and I am sure the regular members will understand. I hope the senior members will not run away because they don't like a post or because someone hurled abuses at us. If there is a personal attack, we can always complain to the Mod and I have always seen that she takes necessary action.

There have been many other depressing trends on this forum which I was discussing with Ambrosia in the background and I don't want to put such issues in a public post.

And yes...the newcomers MUST respect senior members when it comes to discipline in the forum.

In case I have anything to add, I'll do so later.
