There have always been calls on this site to put a stop to personal attacks. Unfortunately none of them have so far produced results. I believe the reason to be the site’s own encouragement of this type of a behavior. I say this because since I have been on this site, I have been the recipient of three personal attack blogs, all of which have been featured by JJ on the front page! That’s right, featured!! In fact, the most recent one is a parody of a recent blog that I wrote. Of course, my blog was not featured, but the personal attack parody was featured, and is still on the front page. So, it is being advertised and promoted by the site’s owners / operators. User SamsamIIII even wrote a blog about the matter yesterday and wrote a parody of JJ’s own blog to illustrate the point. But that blog was deleted, I assume by the admin. himself.
JJ even promised sometime ago, when confronted, not to engage in this type of behavior, and not to feature and advertise personal attack blogs. He said it was a “mistake” on his behalf to do so and that he will not do it again. But I guess he has forgotten that promise.
This site will remain what it is so long as this culture is promoted by JJ.

I am not expert to evaluate
by comments on Fri Sep 30, 2011 08:55 PM PDTI am not expert to evaluate IC. But, I feel totally fine with those of my comments that were not published in here.
I am sorry for being so frank. Can you please ask yourself why you spend SO much time in here and track almost every single move of everybody?
p.s. I am with everybody except you:)
OI- BTW, it appears that Samsam was blocked for what you

Not JJ or IC job
by darius on Fri Sep 30, 2011 09:50 AM PDTIt is not JJ or IC job to teach the members to be polite or civilized.
It is each individual's responsibliity to behave and act properly. I think, JJ should not block any member for their thoughts or remind them to be civilized, unless IC become legally liable.
Unless you want to give him the job of moral police.
As noted before,

by Veiled Prophet of Khorasan on Fri Sep 30, 2011 08:19 AM PDTThere is a person on this site with a hatred for me. He? routinely flags my posts and no actions is taken against him. If we want to have a real discussion attacks should be minimized not promoted.
Now we got some who go around and bully others with impunity. I know who the person is. It is not Amir or Mehraban or MK. Why is he not being banned rather he is being encouraged. If this keeps up bye to IC.
agreed onlyiran. i also
by hamsade ghadimi on Fri Sep 30, 2011 08:13 AM PDTagreed onlyiran. i also agree with bavafa about the hits-revenue-sensational topic association. i don't understand though why the cards are stacked against you and some others.
by the way bavafa, how many of your anti-fred (you know, the a-hole) blogs have been featured?
I wondered what happened to his blog...
by Bavafa on Fri Sep 30, 2011 08:08 AM PDTAs for encouraging personal attack, I don’t know!?!?!
But it is fair to say ….
This site, just like any other business, need to generate revenue and the more hits/visits the more attractive it becomes for generating revenue.
We also ought not to forget our own role and responsibility in this dance! He publishes them but we are not forced to participate.
