How to make PDF a 'friendlier experience' for everyone

[53fd]

For long, way before I joined this forum, I noticed people got responses that were based on their flags and not on what they actually said or meant.

No one really read what a user said, and the mood of the responses depended on the poster's flag, and often ended up in troll wars resulting in derailing, or closure of the threads. But few are to be blamed for that because most members are highly patriotic and many so religious, and for such patriotic or religious people, it takes a lot to reason with someone from the enemy country.

So to shed such biases of the responders (and of myself), I decided to change my flags to the countries that I can relate to, but that are barely be related to the topics discussed here. However, to let the people know where I am actually from, I always kept my location as New Delhi, without showing off the Indian flag.

Although once I got even banned for this, I have to say, it has worked really well!

I actually remember you as " " from the beginning, & I remember that you speak " " as well.

This forum is so massively crowded (possibly one of the busiest forums ever) that it's close to impossible to expect everything to be perfect. Yes, I do think the staff is trying its level best to keep things as smooth as possible, and they are doing well.

There are some racists in this forum. I got banned more than 5 times. I think I can't reach senior level.
Any Indian who is little bit emotional can't survive here and reach senior level.

PDF has certainly become a friendlier place, due to the high number of infractions that are given. At the same time, it's lost it's edge as a forum where it would be Pakistanis vs Indians. It was an exciting venue, and if you don't believe me, people should go back and look on to to threads during 2010 and earlier.

It's become much more than Indians vs Pakistanis now. You see plenty of active Chinese, Americans, Bangladeshis, Afghans, Iranians, Saudi Arabians; & plenty of other nationalities as well arguing strongly. I don't think this forum has lost its edge to be honest.

Those were the days when I thought I'd troll a little and run away leaving everyone fuming and fighting ... but the hardwork on part of Mods, and my addiction to this forum, changed everything I decided to get a little serious
