Just Curious...We (Active Members) spend a lotta time here on the forum to keep it alive n happening, Is this a 'Gratifying' Job?? :rolleyes:

We all come here cuz we like to...nobody get paid here!! :p

I wud highly grateful if Mods amend their Confidential Policy with a lil bit Open one! :)

Btw, Real credit goes to 'Nitin Dahiya' the Initiator & Founder of Jatland, Salutations to Him ! :)


Long Live JL!...


Rock on
Jit

I Agree with Jit.
 
Good work Satyeshwar and contributors to this thread

It is good to see healthy communication among young jats.It is all about balance and not taking extremist view to an issue whether it is for or against. There are always two sides of a coin, a mature person will consider other side before jumping to conclusion. Not only Jats but whole of India is becoming less tolerant and is in a great hurry to get, where ? This must be the gift of materialism, which teaches us how to acquire more and more things but does not teach us their relationship to our happiness. Go back to basics and learn to enjoy what you have rather than rushing to accumulate more and more things in the hope of achieving happiness through them. That will restore balance in life and make a more tolerant individual. Keep up good work and do not be afraid to speak your mind remembering that we all make mistakes and every one deserves a chance to correct his/her mistakes.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all Memebers of Jatland, their families, friends and relatives.:)
 
Good lesson & life long experence

Jatland is a good place to know true nature of human beings.
Moderators are doing good and dificult job.
People come here with high hope but disappoint after few months.
Mostly people think Jatland is like a family but it is not.
There is war of EGO and selfrespect going on all the time.
That why many sencere members left.
yah asa ladoo hae jo khaye vah bhi pachataye
aur nahi kahye vah bhi pachhtata raha hae
Duniya mae aya aur jatland ka member ya moderator
nahi bana to uska gyan adhura rah jata hae.
Hamne- Moderator rahte bhi Ban ho kar dekha
Member rahte bhi Ban ho kar kae var dekha
Logo ki galiya bhi khaye- kuch wellwishers

banaye aur jayda sy Dusmani mol li for nothing
Kuch books bhi galat loga ko bhet kari
Gurgaon mae Pahle Jat meeting bhi karke dekhi
2003 december ki bat hae
ise sy nahi to Jat Samaj ka kuch bhala huwa
aur nahi mera koe bhala howa
Time waste aur ak bitter lesson for all
So jisky pas time hae- gali khane ky liye
vah moderator van kar jarur dekho
Insano ki true nature ka pata lag jayega
lekin ise time ka better use bhi ho sakta hae.
1 fauji ny kaha War mae bina gayal huye
aagye thy- Jatland per nahi bach sakta hae
Dusre Fauji ny kaha - Jat land per 1year sy
Jayda tikna 1 Kala - Art of warfair hae.

Love-respect Share -care jo jat samaj ka
Adhar bindu joint family ka purna niyam hae
uski daily dhjiya udai jati hae
Ban- hona aur- Karna
kae dusare namo sy entry karna
Yahan ka janam sidh adhikar hae
So Dear members
khub use karo personal freedom ko
Jo jatland per aaya ban nahi huwaq
ya moderator nahi bana useny duniya mae
bekar jindgi khoye-koi lesson learn hi nahi kiya

I have learn ny lesson at great price
those wish to learn from my experence
are most welcome.
I am thankful to all of you-
ban karne walo ka bhi
aur supporter karne walo ka bhi
jisne meri antar atma ki aankhe khole di
aur bahut bada ahsan kar diya hae.
Now I know better where I stand
and where my dear Jat kaum stand.
No illfeeling toward any member aur moderator.
wish you all very
merry X-Mas and happy new year 2008
 
I was going through the contents of another thread ( i happened to visit the site after a long time today ) on the Ban of Seema Ji ( please see that my this post has nothing to do with that issue , for that matter , even using the word "ban" is sufficient for me ).

It seems that most of the people disagree to the actions my the moderators and that seems to be the case everywhere , whether it is this site or orkut or elsewhere where there is a concept of moderators.

It really confuses me to the core that if the majority is against any of the controversial actions of the moderators then the following questions arise :
1. Is it not against the sactity of the post and the person that the majority seems to be against any of his/her decisions . whats the point in holding a post (which is in some sense a democratic one ) when the people are not willing to accept your authority.

2. Is it not the very stupidity of the concept that if the majority is not in favour of someone then whats the point of even having such a post ?

3. If only taking decisions which go in the faovur of the majority is th only thing the moderators are supposed to do ( which is reflected by the outrage of the people against them ) then i guess the word moderator need be followed or preceded with the adjective of a " majority "/ "favourable only " / " no self-discretion " or any of some fancy term which refelts the similar thing.
If the moderators are not allowed to use their discretion and take hard st eps or which seemingly go unfavourable for some or might sound rude then whats the point in having a person for the post , any and every action can be made with a majority vote !


Now comes the interesting part ( interesting to me at least ) !

Jit mentioned in his previous post that if mnoderators job is thankless ( and in my opinion its a job which requires respect and we must ( by we , i mean members ) give it to them , then the members job is gratufying !

There is no denying the fact that sites and communities and even for that matter extrapolating , nations and world is made by people ! and i concur to Jit's statement.

Now comes the thing which i find most hypocrite of all !

When an unfavourable thing has happened and to cover for that some use this very sweetened words of being a family and family norms of warning a person , helping out , forgetting his/her mistakes ! Wow , Kudos , we forget this concept totally when we are doing regular postings and keep on continued arguements and use of hatred words or merely trying to get the other down.
And most important of all , we remind ourselves that everything is supposed to be the fair and the democratic process , then we come forward and ask for the reasons of " why " ?
and comes forward is this theory of written rules and grounds of doing certain things !
although we tend to foregt everything when we are doing things which actually run contrary of things that should be !

The system seems to be biased against the moderators a lot , and i am talking of a moderator who is rue , selfless , no ulterior motives , working meticulously ! :)
( PS : There is no intention of mine to start off a new controversy , the idea is to at least make one person think of what i worte a little deeply and identify and rectify some of the regular / common ( non - thought of ) mistakes !

Thanks !
 
Hi Jitender,
I have made the changes as you have suggested. Now, if a member gets an infraction, it will come from a moderator account and not from the personal id of the moderators. I hope this helps!

this is the worst i could expect here...sheerly a retardness...HOW DO YOU LOOK AT IT IN THE AGE OF RTI ACT...when govt is hell bent to bring more and more transparency...JL is playing secret on such lowly jobs...now all the mods will get painted with the same brush because of some nincompoop's follies...why should all the mods be called stupid because of some other's faults

Thumbs down to jit's idea and your hasty action
 
Sory to comment Seema Ji , but he very sense of your post seems to be pretty hell bent on doing certain actions which will compell at least one (and i am mathematically correct here :p ) moderators to intervene.

I dont understand the logic that in this ultra modern age ( where RTI's etc are there ) , why cant people have that essential self control , patience and common sense to not make a lot of hue and cry on a place which contains the so tagged " lowly posts " !

The finger pointing on others continue ! :) Change is painful !


I strictly comment against the use of words such as " lowly " against the moderators ! Please refrain from it ! If you dont believe in a system , you are at your own free will to opt out.
:)

Thumbs up to you Seema!!

RTI Act means Right To Information Act you non-educated PEOPLE!

Even some 'members' are going to be painted with the same brush very soon!!!

Not sure what you mean by hasty. Jit's suggestion was made on August 10th and I made the change a full 4 months after on 21st December (so that all the debate on this subject is over). If you really had comments on this subject, you had all this time to make them.

I guess this just brings out that you can never make everyone happy at the same time. Someone will always blame you for something no matter what you do.

subsiding keeping 'some' happy and 'some' unhappy over this, just think was it required at all in the age when people are up for transparency overhaul in the system?

this is million steps backward...

i refrain from any discussion on it now...

Apparently, the system is not working on the new pattern. I requested for deletion of a post which was posted twice. The following message was sent to me, from the account of an 'editor' and not from newly-created 'moderator' account. So, the identity of the 'editor' is still known to the concerned member !
