What is needed is the exact opposite. The moderators have to make sure that the rules are consistently applied. They just cannot, for example, allow the worst known words in the Konkani language to be posted here. They certainly cannot keep quiet when members complain about the foul words used. Keeping quiet has never resolved any issue. Another issue is that some posters are only here to antagonize people. These personalities are well known to ALL the moderators. I just cannot understand why such people are allowed to keep posting their venom year in and year out. Every post of mine that was rejected, was my retort to these poisonous posts. Almost everyone else complaining about rejected posts is doing so because he has experienced this problem. A third issue is that, if there are rules here, surely they have to be applied to all? It is quite obvious that some posters (and may I add that these are not moderators) have their posts appearing on Goanet in real time. Once again, take a look at the number of complaints that are now being sent in. JoeGoaUK went as far as to stop posting for a week. The result for his act of protest? Nothing!
