While I appreciate Gopal's administration and moderation of this forum and all that other members' have contributed in terms of bgm scores, latest news, tracklisting, etc., I am feeling that the attacks, accusations, and general nastiness has been increasing in frequency. This was not the case many years ago when the group first started, and in fact, many of those senior members no longer post or have unsubscribed. I too will now be going down that road. I really do feel that I'm a bit too aged and seasoned for this teenage dominated group and really don't have time to defend disproportionate attacks on my opinions. I have a family and important job to focus on. My love for ARR will continue forever.
Thank you to all those members here who have appreciated my attempts to raise more substantive discussions and insight into Rahman and his music. Really, your supportive comments have meant a lot to me and have kept me going this far. Rawat's comment on my latest post on Sonu Nigam, accusing me of having an ego and that he finds my attitude sickening is just one of many reasons that have accumulated over time of why I will no longer be posting in this group.
