The quality of posts should also be taken into consideration. Answering every post, passing harsh remarks on persons who cannot defend themselves on the forum like saying someone is a terrorist ad should be whipped or abusing a particular community should be discouraged and not rewarded. Some system can be worked out. Moderators should act neutral and not be seen outdoing members in negativity.
There are forum rules that nobody should post any remark insulting to others. A moderator may sometimes take action. But if some members continue breach of forum rules and even some moderator indulges, there is no way decency can come to forum. Moreover now there is neither revenue sharing nor moderator bonus. So there is also no incentive for moderators.
Now it seems that there is free for all. so you write what you like irrespective of quality and desirability of content. In view of overall environment in the country, this is not so bizarre. If TV channels can telecast anything including lectures by fake baabaas, propagate superstitions, doctored videos and lies, what is wrong if this site also follows suit.
So, if somebody is happy with and finds the site interesting, well. Also, one may try to make this interesting by own contribution. It is possible to bring new topics. Sarala says she used to write articles and also in forums. she can still write articles and earn on that. However now there is no financial benefit in forums. This is administrative matter and we can do nothing. I suggest that if your main object is to earn, just write articles and forget the rest of the site.

The lesson is to look after ones own country. Trump or Obama are not bothered about India, but America and that is why the lethal F16 is being given to Pak. It is in America's interest to keep Pak on their side.
The Americans have also passed the Patriot act that gives sweeping powers of arrest and detention to the FBI and US police. Here we had two anti terror laws POTA< TADA which were scrapped on pressure from minority community. They were not against minorities , but against terrorism. It is nobodys fault if 99% of the terrorists caught are from minority community. I wonder if you are aware where India is heading in next 2 years, with Bengal in front. I can't disclose further.

In the long run Donald Trump will be a good thing for India with a weak caste/ religious division. But these are early days and anything can happen as the US electoion is very volatile. There is still many a slip between the cup and lip for Donald to be pr I hope friends can read my articles on Boddunan on Trump. But be sure that Trump articulates what the Americans feel now. He is American and will keep America's intersts in front not India's.

Boddunan boring or its forum? I think the absence of variety in topics is pronounced these days. We have the same topic disguised under different titles discussed all over again! It is quite true that in earlier times there were quite a few reward- based competitions attracting greater participation and generating a lot of interest among members. The spirit of forum was also warm. I wish better days for our site!!
Hi Chinmoy ! what stops you from starting all the topics you have mentioned should be there ?

True Chinmoy. The main reason is lack of variety in topics. Earlier, we had topics related to Movies, Word scrambling, Health, sports to name a few. Today most of the topics are related to politics. Of course absence of Reward based competitions is also a major reason that contributed to Boredom and monotony.
Yes sir you are 100% right, these days mostly every topic are related on politics
