Folks, the forum is now going to be a cleaner place! We now have a few new mods, or IndiPolice:

Addy - Cause he's the one who pushed me to get this done!

Mohan - He's been asking to be one!

Magali - For sending in the most number of abuse reports so far.

Manav - for being the quickest gun on twitter today!

Anwin and Myself from the IndiBlogger Team will continue to be mods as well.

The IndiPolice can hide any topic on the forum, and they can "tag" a topic for one the admins to respond to.

If anyone else wants to join this elite squad Smile, let us know here and the IndiPolice can make a decision!

Dear Renie,

the anarchist political philosophy I subscribe to, I see this as no more than a reinforcement and an extension of the normal.

Why do we wish to shut out deviants, of any kind? Isn't vandalism and graffiti creative resistance, aren't they expressive of dissent art and ideology?

Anyway, now that there is one: can we have a useful code of conduct, for us and you guys?

Can you please stop militarising the net by calling it police? Think of something else, unhinged from the Right wing moralists and centrist police law maintenance...

And yeah, wouldn't you like to nominate someone from outside the clique to ensure accountability, and you know keeping your group clean...as an observer!

Can I self-nominate myself to the role...

Cheers

Addy

I like IndiPolice.

And about your self nomination, we'll see about that Tongue out

Cryptic Clues

why the tongue, Addy? And are we to be as whimsical to deploy language and assign labels on liking? Flimsy grounds, this...

Sits in on dissent...Sealed

Addy

Oh! come one CC!!

I thought you took humor well! And besides when am I serious on the forum?

And when will people stop taking my comments too seriously! Just laugh it off buddy! And sorry to offend you!

PS: Some heavy tongue  you gave me in reply to 'my tongue', it seems! I had to use a dictionary to understand what you exactly meant! Tongue out (now thats an appropriate use of tongue)

Cryptic Clues

Offence: none taken at all!

But I think widening the clique with observers sitting in from time to time, is still worth pursuing...

Addy
from Mumbai
13 years ago

Oh boy! There you go again! Wheres my dictionary?

Anyway glad that you were not offended. Will get back to you as soon as I decode your Morse code! Laughing

some of what cc says makes sense to me..n also brings up a good point..

is every type of self promotion a shameless one?

n how is that decided?

Its a nice thing to come up with. But yeah right, you also need to get a 'Policies' page to let starters know about - 'What-to-do' and 'What-not-to-do'.

IndiPolice Policy No 1: Don't take advice from people suffering from Multiple Personality Disorder! Tongue out

 

Just kidding man! I thinks thats a great idea and we should implement that. We'll see what we can do. Thanks! Smile

Well, may all the luck in the world accompany you in this endeavour. Will you guys police grammar as well here? Not that it should be on your Must-Do list. It's something that can be assigned to a Beat Marshall who loves to keep the streets 'free of stains'. :)

Hello Renie/Addy...

I am SO glad that you guys have started this team. I had actually gotten a bit tired of trying to explain why shameless self promotion was a shoddy practice (on the thread that I started!)... introducing this team validates everyone's efforts.

Would also like to send a request to join the team and get more involved...

Thanks,

Prashant.

Addy
from Mumbai

Thanks Prashant!

Have to say the IndiPolice idea originated from your thread! Love to see you in the team. Smile

While everybody is applauding the appearance of IndiPolice (and I do too... congos) Has anybody stopped for a moment to think "Why do we need it is the first place?"

 

I would have assumed that, being mature bloggers, people would have had enough of fake advertising and let things run the normal way... Granted, that way, it will take more time for your blog to get popular but better than self promotion. Better still would be to go on individual blogs and post genuine comments... What say?

Addy
from Mumbai

Even Indiblogger thought as you did sir!

Sadly, that did not happen! So came the IndiPolice.
