[Goanet] Moderation of posts on GoaNet
Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2010 23:25:28 -0500 From: "manuel tavares" Although I do not begrudge Mario of his right to air his views, he does not come up with any constructive ideas nor any concrete solutions to any of the problems currently affecting Goa but rather criticizes the efforts of people like Bosco who do and are committed to the welfare of Goa and Goans. Mario asks: Manuel, I have given many concrete solutions over the years to address the mess in Goa. The most recent one is for the local Goans to quit thumping their chests about being more-Goan-than-the-rest-of-us and decide what needs to be done and by whom. No one cares about your Goanese-ness, how proud you are to be born by chance, and how many jobs you all have created in Karnataka. Bloviating without concrete action only adds to the greenhouse gases that are causing the earth to cool since 1998. BTW, can you cite me an example where I have criticized Bosco on Goanet? If you are citing some other forum will you please post my complete comments in proper context? Can you also give us a couple of examples of what exactly you have done for Goa? Thanks.
[Goanet] Moderation of posts on GoaNet
I full heartedly add my support to Bosco for his commitment to Goa and Goans. I also agree that Persons like Mario Govea do not appear to have the interests of Goa and Goans at heart and persist in their negative comments to towards those of us who do . Although I do not begrudge Mario of his right to air his views, he does not come up with any constructive ideas nor any concrete solutions to any of the problems currently affecting Goa but rather criticizes the efforts of people like Bosco who do and are committed to the welfare of Goa and Goans. Keep up the good work Bosco. Every little step we take towards making Goa a better place for Goans, is a step towards victory in the battle to save Goa. Manuel ( Eddie) Tavares.

--- http://www.GOANET.org --- Happy New Year Twenty-Ten --- Yes, Bosco is committed to Goa & Goans and we should appeciate his time and efforts. My only advise to Bosco; don't not let guys like Mario Goviea get thru to you; In my view, Mario is in guilt of doing nothing for Goa and just trying to convice others to follow his lead i.e. migrate, do nothing and then criticise Goans (Overseas & Local) who are trying to say or do something for Goa/Goans; perhaps this helps him sleep better!! Just to say it again; Keep up the Good Work Bosco.

Bwana D'Souza, Bosco has the habit of keeping quiet. I have some indication of the hassles he has to go thru on a daily basis in order to keep Goanet?posts flowing. Believe me, this is only a job for someone truly committed to Goa and Goans.?In fact, the only time I see Bosco losing his temper is when he replies to one Mario Goveia from Toledo. -- Please post your comments on my Blog: http://goanidentity.blogspot.com/ Please also see below: 1.

Just a few days ago, George Bush (43) claimed that the last ten years were the best decade of this century. George is correct since we have no other decade to compare it to. Similarly, no one can judge the effectiveness of the current moderators unless they are compared to another team. I am sure you are aware that the current team of moderators has been in place forever. > A few of my posts have bounced over the years, but I took it all in my stride > rather than pout and stay out of the game. Yep, more than a few of my posts have been rejected. All for content. And this as I sadly sit and watch people with the most vulgar language and even those with proven false ID's merrily posting here.

--- http://www.GOANET.org --- Happy New Year Twenty-Ten --- Have we had enough of bashing Bosco ? What does Bosco get out of this whole deal - I mean serving as a moderator on GoaNet, other than the abuse from every direction ? With Goanet posters penchant for verbosity, editing this forum to keep some semblance of civility is no easy task. This is a no-win situation for the moderators. Who would want to step in his shoes ? A few of my posts have bounced over the years, but I took it all in my stride rather than pout and stay out of the game. Bosco, I salute you. Keep up the good work and keep this forum going.
