A few comments on the new Identification Protocol:
--------
Viviana describes herself as
Viviana
F/??/C/H
MWF
Dear Viviana,
Please mention your surname in future.
Age is compulsory, but cheating on one's age is allowed, and in fact
expected of females. Many of our female subscribers have said they would
not like to reveal their actual age (the males wouldn't be bothered) and so
are requesting such females to just mention an age somewhere close to their
actual chronological age. Please do not subtract too many years so as to
make yourself below legal age for being married.
Regarding "MWF". Mention of your marital status and skin colour is not a
requirement of GoaNet but we do not forbid anyone from giving additional
data about themselves. The "F" in MWF is a unnecessary repetition.
Since you refuse to disclose your "Current Permanent Residence and Family
Goa origins" please donate $100 immediately by Pay Pal and you will be
given special exemption for one year.

If one needs personal information for posting on GoaNet, caste, skin
color, and size of your house/hut in Goa should also be given. Besides,
it would also make sense to add if one is Hindu/Catholic basher.
Dear Carlos,
We have decided not to insist on caste identification nor skin colour on
GoaNet postings as these are very difficult to cross check and verify. It
is not compulsory but you can feel free to give this additional information
about yourself if you so wish.

Kevin identifies himself as:
Kevin Saldanha, Mississauga via Bangalore, Bombay, Saligao, Nakuru, Kenya.
M/48/Hm/H(arijan)
Dear Kevin,
Please note that the last "H" is for sexual orientation and not 'caste'. If
you wish to mention your caste please do so on a separate line or it
confuses our computer freeware software. Also all we need is your "Current
Permanent Residence and Family Goa origins". You have not mentioned your
family Goa origins. Please send $50 by Pay Pal to claim an exemption for
one year. How you came from point "A" to point "B' is not required but if
you wish to explain please do so in parenthesis so as not to confuse our
computer freeware software.
For example
Kevin Saldanha, Mississauga (via Bangalore, Bombay, Saligao, Nakuru, Kenya)
- Saligao.
M/48/Hm/H
Harijan
OR
Kevin Saldanha, Mississauga (via Bangalore, Bombay, Saligao, Nakuru, Kenya)
- X50.
M/48/Hm/H
Harijan
Where 'X50' indicate that you have availed of a $50 exemption from the
"Family Goa origins" field.
On behalf of the GoaNet Admin Team I would like to thank all subscribers
for their patience and understanding during this time of changing
Identification Protocol. Please understand that we have to somehow raise
some funds to get some software developed that will solve this 'plain text'
problem once and for all. And we want to know Halur's gender.
Cheers!
