Folks,

Hey Santosh,
Again, you are making a mountain out of a molehill and appealing to emotion
instead of logic. Following is what I said, and I stand by it. If you
think the cap fits you, you are more than welcome to wear it.
[After all, I find that this was not all a wasted exercise. Well, I have
learned something for sure. I have learned how some netters lobby other
netters/friends for support and strategize to browbeat anyone who differs
with what they profess. No wonder there is something called the popular
net-vote/support by using the clandestine lobbying technique. This practice
is skillfully perfected and successfully employed in politics; why not apply
it on Goanet?]
I also made the following statement:
[Goanet on the other hand was prudent enough to cover up your mistake
through a system that weeds out all cced e-addresses. I just wanted to
point out to Santosh (and others) that ccing on a public forum is not a good
idea.
RE: But then, Santosh was simply lobbying for support, and I can understand
that.]
Santosh earlier wrote:
I cced that email to some people with whom I was discussing the
issue of urban legends, when your post arrived in my
trash box. Most of the individuals to whom I cced my
response, subscribe to the digest version of Goanet.
In fact, they thanked me for sending them an advance
copy of my post.
RE: The later part of my statement was due to the fact you copied your
response to a few select individuals (who are also subscribed members of
Goanet), but chose NOT to copy the author of that original post i.e. myself.
That was the reason why I called your advance cced post to your friends(?)
as seeking support (or soliciting private discussions, which you admitted
to). So, why you specifically cc your response to a few select individuals
but NOT copy the author on that advance post?
Please dont take this personal. You are now steering this whole thing in
another direction to put a negative spin on it. My original post querying
your intent was to make this forum free of any restrictions, and negate any
condescending attitude towards the poster/s.
I have always advocated a free posting policy on this forum, and Goanet
archives will depict that. Different people have different interests, and
there should NOT be restrictions to postings, to that effect (sans abuse of
course). There was no need to make a mountain out of a mole hill over a
simple post such as the Acres of Diamonds. QED.
Thank you for your understanding.
Regards,
Joe Vaz
