I was surprised by your post too.

Mario responds:

Jose had agreed with me that it is only through democratically changing the 
laws in Goa and democratically electing honest politicians can Goa be changed 
for the better, rather than the incoherent ranting and raving we have see 
recently on the subject, blaming everything else but the reality of how the 
situation in Goa can be changed.

I can see why Jose would be surprised by Bosco attacking my suggestions without 
offering any rational suggestions of his own.

I'm not sure why Bosco would be surprised that Jose would support the 
democratic process in Goa, as if there was any rational alternative.

Mario observes:

It is good to refresh our knowledge of the Goanet Rules from time to time, 
which the moderators like Bosco are responsible for imposing.

One of the Goanet Rules reads as follows:

Do not engage in personal attacks.

This includes name-calling of any sort. Discussion should focus on the facts 
and ideas being discussed, and not the person posting the same.

Here is a comment from:
http://lists.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet-goanet.org/2009-December/187067.html, 
that was a personal attack by a Goanet moderator, no less, and had nothing to 
do with the ideas being discussed, "If you must fulfill your daily allotment of 
4 messages a day to Goanet, find another topic or poster to respond to."

Here is another rule:

Use your real name as the sender, not an alias.

This rule, too, has been selectively ignored by the administration.
