Roberto Lopez wrote:As almost everybody knows, I'm from Argentina, so, my native tongue is Spanish and I'm ABSOLUTELY SURE that NOBODY is discriminating here. The simple fact is that most of people here writes in English, even when, that is not your native language. Such people, hopes that everybody do the same.
Said that, this is my humble petition to all people involved on this here:
1. Please, stop talking about discrimination. That is not happening here. In fact, suggesting such thing, promotes hate and division. This could end with many people leaving the forum. I'm pretty sure that nobody wants that.
2. To those hoping that English be the only language used, please, understand, that not all people here, are able to use English. If we not allow here other languages than English, these programmers simply will abandon us.
Creating subforums for different languages will solve the problem. I'm sure that many of our friends here could establish "bridges" between topics in different languages.
The flow of people wanting to communicate in their own language is unstoppable. If such thing is prohibited here, they will do in another place.

Sorry to all for all this, but if all of us want to socialize with everbody, we need to learn to respect anyone. As it was mentioned by many others colleagues here. So in that way, we can not accept any kind of discrimination, when this happen the moderator should it have the due right to intervent by exclude offensive materials being by re-editing message or not !
I would like to say that my wish for a long time to get rules for this forum and I always wished as moderator and as user too.
This matter Mr. Rathinagiri should it see soon as possible for the good health of our community, I hope so.![]()
In all this time, before this discussion became again, I preferred to be in silent. But what I saw it became worst !
I will tell you something, using my right of "FREE COMMUNICATION":
I do not want to promote any expulsion, any offense (but with just the true) from this forum. But I believe some corrective measures should be applied just to control abuse happend.
I can not understand why Mr. Rathinagiri gives total rights to Esgici (like as moderator) for his own re-editing messages.
And he has done already upton one day I discovered and denounced him to Rathi (months was taken).
At my begining as moderator, Esgici critiquized me a lot because I had re-editing some user messages (corrective actions) and now you will read this then you will see he also re-edited messages from others too and he dowsn't being a official moderator.
I do not know what is going to be with power if some day Esgici becomes a moderator![]()
Seems he is untouchable. Why ? By his age ?
After many Esgici's complains, offenses and too much fighting, he left many messages from himself without any sense. He has promoted so much noise and then excludes his messages. Why this ? All contains of forum is for community ownership. All what we post in public must need be public. Nobody has the right to delete messages even if is from his own autory. Except admin and moderators have this rights when rules are broken. That's it ! Am I wrong in this concepts ? Or upto when comunity rules and social rules will be broken ?
We need forum rules URGENTLY !
Sorry Rathi, to put this in public, but I waited much for this rules and when I tried to make my moderator job you have cutted me, left me with no much actions because this guy. IMO it was irrational and unfair your comments in public about me. I what to make my job freely, my rights back and with your consent (of course), but if you do not agree with my moderation, so please I want not be condemning in public, as it had been done.It is very simple to read in internet what a moderator has about rights and obligations in the forum.
Whith this Roberto, are you suggestting to open languages subforuns in each sections ?Roberto Lopez wrote:Creating subforums for different languages will solve the problem. I'm sure that many of our friends here could establish "bridges" between topics in different languages.
Dear Roberto, you are right in many but in normal conditions. I know is very sad all my declarations, but also is very sad when happening much injustices and nobody say anything. As I said, I kept me in silent for long time until last days who the same person which is always protected by silent but he declared (just to read his messages) making undervalue of job of video from Daniel who is a big contributor in blog in Brasil. Recently same person made the same kind of undervalue to Javier Tovar, made same with Leopoldo Blancas... (where is Leopoldo now ?) nobody said anything. This is wrong ! Somebody must need to do something. One day bloom out.Roberto Lopez wrote:About Moderators:

But let me do my job. Do not cut me in public, communicate with me by MP, not in public. This concerns every body to do in private for moderations demands. Recently you also will read the same guy of ever, ordering me to split topics in public. This is no the right way. For that reason I wrote this.Roberto Lopez wrote:The basic rules on any discussion group on the Internet applies to all of this members (including moderators).
