Dear Fred and All: Frankly, I don't think you should assume such a defeatist attitude :( I am sure most Netters and the A-Team will support me here for your extraordinary contributions to Goanet. It is sad that this matter has been overly protracted, and seems to be never ending! It has brought out the ire of many who, like me, feel that freedom of expression is equated to an open general license for holding all Netters captive. Even Eugene Correia, who once supported him, has posted the following: What you say and what you do are totally different things. Maybe it's your split personality. Maybe we have just have to tolerate your. Or best, ignore you. I chose the latter. Frankly, I'm tired of you. HENCEFORTH, DON'T EVER SEND ME PERSONAL EMAILS. And, in response, comes this diatribe: In a message dated 07/02/2002 4:21:42 AM EST, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Maybe I even have a 'multiple personality' syndrome. I have not commented on your 'personality'. You should not comment on mine. Comment on what I write. Your armchair psychoanalysis should be directed elsewhere. President Pandurang would be a good bet! It is common knowledge to all that Santosh Helekar has this assumed pseudonym, and this is tantamount to a personal slur against this gentleman :( IMHO, the bounds of human decency have been exceeded and based upon Fred's request in the above referenced e-mail I am also forwarding this to the A-Team for appropriate action. I support Tariq's previous advice that it would be best for dissenters to set up their own goanet3 or whatever separate lists and let us maintain some decorum and dignity on Goanet.

[Goanet] Note to Cecil
Cecil, You're taking this rivalry to ludicrous extents. By now it's very clear that you will use any excuse to hit out at GoaNet (and GoaCom, which hosts this mailing-list currently). By extension, anyone who is even remotely associated with GoaNet will become fair-target. IMHO, you would have been a great humour writer, if only you could keep your personal rivalries and dislikes away from writing. It might have also helped if you had targetted someone really worthy of being targetted, instead of a humour-by-insinuation style meant to take off on those you don't like. You seem to be eager to get this forum caught up in all sorts of irrelevant debates. Let's not waste our time and energies getting caught up in all this typically-Goan infighting; can't we all concentrate our energies onto something positive instead? Just imagine what a difference that could have made On the filters, the issue is very clear: filters are a machine-level check to block the possibility of abusive postings from going through. This is a standard procedure used in a number of un-moderated mailing lists. Majordomo and a number of other mainstream software allow for this as part of the package. The rule is -- use foul language, and your post get blocked. Why should we make it easier for anyone to find ways to work-around the filters, and defeat their very purpose? Surely, this is not going to convince you; I don't plan to keep debating endlessly FN PS: I've stripped my signature below of my profession or to the job I do... hope that at least makes you happy. Is this a battle for the freedom of expression, or the freedom of Expressions? With this small note, I request readers of GoaNet not to remain silent, but to let us know about this. If we on the GoaNetAdmin team are wrong, let us know! But let's keep all this intra-mailinglist and intra-website rivalry out of things PPS: I don't have the time, energy or inclination to get caught in this once-in-three-months fatricidal GoaNet-versus-GulfGoans, GoaCom-versys-GoaWorld wars.
