Just noticed this thread.. it has been here since a long time but never seemed to care about it...until a
very recent incident (
closing of the "extreme Pagal" thread) incited me to do so and reply on this thread..
I know i shudnt be passing judgments based on 1 such incident, but then it takes just 1 bad interview to lose out on a seat, just 1 bad post to ruin yur image...
I have just diverted a bit from the subject of this thread
Will be listing a few things
I will not do... (
Mods I hope i m allowed to post them?)
So here goes:If I become a Mod @ PG:-1. I will not believe in double standardsI dont think an explanation/example is required here.. happens often
2. I will not be a hypocrite, nor will I support oneSame as above
3. I will not preach, and if by habit I do preach, I will practice wat i preach As subodh rightly pointed out:

Subodh says:
Extremely lame attempt at humor, Rohit..
And I wonder where has your sense of choosing words and lecturing others on choosing them have gone. At least Walk the Talk. It is very easy to suggest to Man_fri or whoever else is there to use these words in place of that but try practicing themselves. Or is it that you forget everything that u teach in anger.
4. I will not interfere in threads just for the heck of it.. and if by habit I do, I will try to add some value to it Posted by Apurv
The intellectual soliloquizing ..................
Dont even feel like quoting the entire post... wat a waste
5. I will not abruptly close a thread Thts the worst tht cud hav happened and i must say
Mr. Pagalguy set a real bad example of himself by closing the thread offering no explanation watsoever..
See, i know hes a busy chap..so he just decided not to take the pains of going through the entire thread
So, this is wat i think
Mr. Pagalguy did/thought wen he noticed tht thread "Extreme Pagalhood"..
(
wait!!! did he notice it himself, or did the other mods ask him to come to their rescue???) He read the first few posts, most probably he agreed with
nikkers post , then clicked on the
Post Reply tab,
or was it the Quick Reply tab??? (watever)
and posted his reply, closed the thread and disappeared ..
Hes the boss of MODS after all, noone here can refute him rite..
"THREAD CLOSED"Tht just ends it all rite...
(Had a strong urge of starting a thread "Why was the Extreme PAgal" thread closed?".. But decided against it.. even tht wud have been closed...wat the heck!!!) Such a pity he didnt even bother to read tht post by
man friday which had suggestions which cud have been discussed .. all for the betterment and improvement of PG...
A snippet of the same:
Perhaps what you could do is moot a separate section to discuss social and political issues (or whatever else you see fit) and then one of you volunteer to be a mod on this section, without restricting anyone's acces to it. That way you can filter out the spam and repeated points, but at the same time allow everybody who genuinely wants to make a contribution to post.
And is this the first time the Mods hav done this, of course
NOTThey do it time and again
(wonder their salary increments and bonuses are decided on the basis of "Who suspends how many members" and "closes how many threads?") ok here are the last 2, both are my favourites,
6. I WILL NOT SPAM 7. I WILL NOT SNIP POSTS Above all,
HERES ONE THING THT I MUST DO AS A MOD:
I will follow all the rules of Pagalguy.. (LEAD BY EXAMPLE)
And will definitely abide by the above-mentioned "Do-not" rules Cheers !!!
PS: MODS: Pls take it in the right spirit (feedback, thts wat this thread was meant for)
Otherwise, u have all the rights to ban/suspend me, snip the post, close the thread, the works.....
