One of the several possible immediate solutions,
is to let Sajhaities have their own Blog sections as they
wish. Here, San can create a forum Moderators.
(Let Kurakani section be free from moderation).
I am talking about Blog (weBLOG) section. When you
create such moderators with their posting background
in Sajha.com .... if you wish you can have election too.
Let these BLOG moderators vote any non-sense thing
that is posted under BLOG section. You can have about
9 or eleven moderators/judges like supreme court justice.
You creat "AGREE REJECT Let It be there for some time...
type of options". Once majority e.g. 6 out of 11 reject
the blog, it can be kicked out of Sajha.com. If you think
its too much burden, you can have 15 or 21 members.
When such objectionable stuffs appear, we will instantly
see the stuffs over Kurakani section, i.e. the power of
Kurakani section. Then, moderators can instantly check
the BLOG section .... take necessary action. I don't think
that 6 out 11 will behave so badly that a nice article will be
rejected. Wll, Bush is trying to favor conservative in supreme
court justice saga, similarly, if these moderators are simply
collection too conservative 6 guys, you will hardly find any
liberal ideas running here. So, San as King of Sajha has every
right to select and take turn any time ..... San should tell
all moderators that being moderator is a priviledge, not a
right .... You should keep on warning this and with draw
such priviledge time to time, otherwise, "priviledge" if lasts
for long time, remains no more a priviledge, but considered
to be a right. Dont appoint all moderators at one time and
their tenure should not end simultaneously, so that they
don't gang up and go for "Bhuk Hadtal". Their names should
be kept secret like "cover up CIA agent", any one behaves
like Karl Rove should immediately be fired. Ask moderators
not to reveal their identity and once a moderator's ID is
revealed you just ban the TRAITOR from Sajha.com.
TND failed why because it was completely controlled by
Rajpal ji, directly or indirectly. Ujjwal was under the pressure
of Rajpal what to post what not to post. (last editorial
tells this scenario). Rajpal ji changed his alignment from
Open Democracy to Autocracy. His last postings in TND's
official site clearly tells this scenario. Why that happened?,
most probably after the news "_____" appeared in Kathmandu Post
.....
I wonder whether San (I guess he is single at this moment,
though its none of my biz) changes after he get married ....
I have seen many Nepalis change their stand on open democracy,
when they marry a politician's daughter ..... So, Sajha.com may
even be deleted or nullified, if San marries to some politician's daughter
who is King G bhakta, it can happen instantly, as it happened in TND.
We Nepalis (based on my personal observation) are very sensative
to our relatives(senior relatives)'s political affiliations. Oops, Me tooo.
A person is dictator who does not have a successor. TND vapoured off
because Rajpal ji never nourished any successors. Sajha.com may
be turned off one day, if San gets some other mode in his life where
he has to abandon Sajha.com's day to day affair or he sidelines with
some Rajabadies..... Well, he might deny any possibility in near future,
but who knows future ..... neither Rajpal ji knew it when he was student
in university and began TND dedicating it to open democracy.
Once you know the result, its hindsight 20/20.
God Bless Sajha.com
