Since Esfand has written an imaginary payam Noroozi from IC admin to the readership,

I thought I write a payam too as one of the most popular writers on IC. Please, no objection to my qualification since this is my payam after all. Write your own and be all you want to be in your own payam.
During last weeks of 1389, IC finally got it right and realized that even though freedom of speech is important but this does not mean that pro IRI writers have to be given as much blog space as they had previously been given. Some pro IRI writers might have also realized how irrelevant they have become. But I am doubtful of that since the pro IRI crowd is very porro. In addition, this development might have been helped because some of the pro IRI writers got blocked since they were rude to others. Whatever the reasons for this development, this has been a great one in my opinion.
Since I mentioned blocking, I must add that there have been writers who have been blocked because of their general harsh language which I found not towards other users but more a kind of rant that some comics employ in order to criticize ills of society as they see them. Couple of those blocked writers are missed by me. As an example, Fesenjoon comes to mind.
As far as deleting our comments, if it matters a lot to us, you will read a fiery blog written by one of us complaining about our latest and greatest comment that was so unjustly removed by IC admin. Sometimes it might matter a little, which in that case, it means that comments from us will get less and more mellow. Some of us might even act as if we are leaving IC.
This is getting long. I just wanted to say, keep up the good work. You are the best Iranian web site. You have some of the greatest writers and let’s not forget about your poets. They are fantastic. Also I need to thank you for your excellent coverage of recent disaster in Japan. Even though, this is an Iranian web site but when important events happen in other countries which have global impact, it is great to discuss them here.
