The environment in this group here will not remain the same, if we allow discussions on politics n religion.
I wouldn't vote for it, though I understand the positive outlook Soumya meant suggesting it. Monitoring & moderating those kind of discussions is a pain aswell, unless some moderator volunteers to do it, and unanimously majority agrees to go ahead and support these discussions. How many e-groups has one seen where there are no chain forwards or general indepth discussions on current affairs n so on, specially given so many members, who definitely can talk endlessly on these topics. This group is unique in its own way. Lets preserve this as much as possible. -Divya --- In [email protected], "sowmya balakrishna" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi > > one small suggestion frm me: > Let people keep discussing, <discussion> tag mesgs can be ignored by others > who wish not to participae n tht discussions. > > S. > > On 12/12/06, Prasad Charasala <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > What I believe is so many mails on so many topics with huge information > > dilutes the interest to read.
