But his new avatar looks so cute akhe. When I was writing this blog, my first choice of a photo for my post was that picture.

FYI Him and I both post in Jpost as well, great articles and debates. Even though many of my comments do not make the page ;-o)

فرامرز جان ، باز نسنجیده حرف زدی برادر

اگه جناب استاد این اشخاص ارزشمند رو هم با خودش می برد که در و پیکر این وبسایت تخته می شد و می موند فرامرز و فرد و حوضشون!

Shallow and evasive answer!

It doesn't bother me anymore! I kissed the logic with this site's trend and said goodbye! Let it for you guys !

Recipe:

6 eggs

50 gr nut chips

50 gr flour

100 gr sugar

50 gr butter

separate the white from the yellow first.

mix the white with 50 gr sugar and mix it well with the batter until you get a firm snow

Then mix the yellow with the rest of the suger (same thing , with the batter)

Mix the flour n the butter very well, use the batter again until you obtain a good thick creamy substence,

then add the yellowish cream to the flour/butter and mix it well

Add the egg's white very delicately to the mixture

at the very end add the nuts and mix very delicately,

put the wax paper on the tray, and make the small rounds of the mixture with the help of a spoon ( must watch the space between the cookies, they double their volum when they are cooked)

put the tray on the pre-heated oven (in the middle)

and let it bake for 20/25 mn under 400 degree

oh, better use the

 LOL :):)

Ostaad jan, I too will miss your much valued contributions. I have always enjoyed your knowledgeable and witty comments, your analyses and your expertise in handing out well-deserved compliments to certain individuals ;)  I fully understand and support the reasons for your withdrawal. Your absence is a great loss to this website.  I have personally witnessed this arbitrariness and sincerely hope JJ would appreciate the point you are making before the website irretrievably deteriorates in the absence of individuals like yourself.

Shame he did not take ShahGholam, Q, JalehO, IRIDokht

Shame Ostaad did not take ShahGholam, Q, JalehO, IRIDokht and the rest of IRIPhiles with him.

nAne gerdoui Souri jAn?

Souri jAn, although thee are some divisions along ideological/personality lines in this community, my understanding is that you and I don't agree on their strength.

Regarding the exchange of insults, ...., that does not bother me .... many have insulted me and I have insulted them back. However it is totally understandable that we feel differently about this.... you are a real person and I am just kharmagas ..... there is a huge difference.

Now can you give me the noone gerdoui recipe?  :)

Kharmagas

I'm not so willing to post comment here.

Just  need to mention that I didn't say  anything in that email which must need your agreement, baba ;)

Agree please with whatever you want, but I just asked you to tell me:

What is the thing that you agree with?

Why changing %180 degree? What happened?

If I understand what did happen to you, then I may also understand what is happening to all the other people whom I believe they are very  integrated people, and suddenly  I see a change of siding, in thier behavior.

I will tell you my secret for the gerdooee cookies, when you answer my question.

How come someone who was calling you Malijak, only one month ago, now is becoming your best friend now?

Sorry again for the mis-spelling. I write with  this little handy

I don't know what you guys are talking about

Iranian.com has very detailed comment deletion policies and procedures, complete with a Complaint Review Board.  I posted  a copy of those policies here not too long ago.  Here they are again:

//iranian.com/main/blog/anonymous111-2/what-i-found-when-i-hacked-jjs-e-mail-part-ii

JJ

Since a blog has been specially created to voice concerns about Ostaad being blocked and being so offended as to leave the site, perhaps you can clarify the situation.

There is even encouragement from Ostaad to others here to boycott the website:

"I intend to boycott iranian.com until the site's management decides to turn it into a professionally run Web site with clear-cut policies about language and subject matter, instead of someone's playground sandbox that he can kick you out on a whim. I urge all of you, who value professionalism and freedom of speech to either boycott iranian.com until you are assured by the management that they value your contributions by establishing the necessary policies, or demand that iranian.com join other professionally run Web sites by developing and announcing much needed user behavior and abusive language policies. "

There seems to be many rumours being raised by the author suggesting  "policies being selectively applied to certain individuals" and there being "ambiguous and discriminatory policy of ABUSIVE language".

These are public points raised on your website JJ and need clarification.

Kind regards. 

it is sad to see him go, I hope he reconsiders.

As with many other good people in the past, I disagree with the leaving. I think it's wrong to cede ground to those truly abusive hatemongers that Ostaad stands firmly against.

This is about the haters and the racists and character assassins who have little shame and think this kind of abuse gives their pathetic lives some meaning.

The site has been unsuccessful so far with several different strategies, and good people have been sacrificed as a result.

Mr. Shepesh

Have you been looking at the mirror a lot??

Blog does not imply such a thing, that is what happens when people do not read but few lines . And if you could care less, why are you spending so much time in commenting?

There are plenty of other threads that can use your talent[WINK].

-YT 

You make me laugh, I

You make me laugh, I couldn't CARE LESS about rude arrogant people. I just answered your blog as you seemed to imply that Mr Javid had been unfair. That is all.

مگر اینکه به همین چیزا دلت خوش باشه ;-o)

Mr. Shepesh

FYI, and sorry to ruin your day, but Mr. Ostaad has been unblocked, he has chosen not to rejoin and he has stated his reasons.

Next time read entire blog if you do not want to get caught with your britches down. ;-o)

-YT 

Gosh I must have hit a nerve

Obviously you have been very irked by your/ Ostaad's blockage. But dont write a blog if you cannot handle the truth. you react just like the man himself, strange isn't it? it is as if i am speaking to Ostaad.

Hope you/ both feel better soon.

Mr. Cost of Progress

I do appreciate your kind word. You perhaps are way too generous toward me, since I am known to have conducted in very bad manners at times. And trust me I am NOT being humble here.

We all have dear sir, and this is my exact point. I never condone anyone's uncivilized behavior toward people and never will. The points I am trying to make are:

1. Do we have clear and concise behavioral policy in IC?

2. If so; Are they being applied to all at all times in a fair and consistent manner?

Now regarding Mr. Ostaad in particular, I am not certain if you have seen the comment for which he was blocked. I have, and the gentleman to whom the comment was directed  did not flag Ostaad himself. You can read the very first comment posted by Mr. Kadivar and see for yourself.

I do appreciate your feedback about this blog and myself, but I assure you that I would have done the same thing [which I am know to have] if that person was anyone other than Mr. Ostaad. As I said earlier, I personally very seldom flag. The few occasions that I have flagged anyone was in relation to vicious attacks and profanity that was used on my family by certain very unkind gentleman.

Respectfully

-YT 

P/S I am not a programmer, however I have made couple of suggestions to Mr. Javid regarding some possible modification which automatically edits the comments based on certain predefined words and criteria.

Mr. Shepesh

You say[What a rediculous blog. Not because Ostaad has been blocked, but because of its denial and hypocrisy. Just because a person has the same
political objectives as you or is your "friend" Mr Ayhab it does not
mean they can get away with unacceptable and disrespectable behaviour indefinately.]

Due respect, ridicules is what ridicules says. That should take care of your arrogant and uncalled for remark.

As to my friendship with Mr. Ostaad, or even my agreement with his political views, all I can tell you that you must be either close friend of mine to have that information, or you are basically lying to make a point.

I do not agree with all of his political views but that does not mean that he has to be shut down. You Mr. Shepesh on the other hand are one of the most belligerent and arrogant characters I have had the displeasure of knowing through your writings, and through your personal attacks on my person. So please lets try and not to act like Mother Tresa since you yourself hardly debate in a  civil manner, unless the person debating you agrees with everything you say.

Hopefully you get my point and wake up from your delusion of being the most civil person yourself since you make this statement[It is our personal responsibility to be civil to others] while insulting  people whom you do not know.

Asides from that, I am not here to make any friends, particularly when it is long distance. I am here to see the opposing views and I need no one to [bah bah o chah chah] about everything I say.

-YT 

P/S : its ridiculous and not rediculous, It is disrespectful and not disrespectable it is behavior and not behaviour
and finally its indefinitely and not  indefinately

nAne gerdooui Souri jAn?

I am sure you bake good cookies (nAne gerdoui?). If I understand correctly when one clears the cookies in the browser he/she can't edit comments that were written before then. I have tested it several times with consistent result. I got your email, I don't agree, as you know I am a kalleh khar also!

BTW, do you have the original recipe for nAne gerdoui, the one I found in Najmieh's book didn't turn like the ones back home in Iran.

Ayhab, you're so polite

You said: "This is not about standing up for anyone, rather a much bigger picture. Being whether the policy is being applied fairly and whether the policy is clear to begin with. "

Actually, the point of the blog WAS your standing up for him. Nothing wrong with that, so let's not piss in each other's shoes and claim that it is ranining, OK? I have seen time and again that you side with his views...nothing wrong with that, so please do not try to paint it otherwise.

As for my stating the truth and you wanting to call me on my self righteousness....pahleeez...you say what you say, and I say what I say. Talk is abundant, specially on this site.

Ostaad is at best condescending and arrogant.

Oh, I almost forgot and had to go back for edit: I have no ill thoughts toward you sir. I find that most, if not all the time, you try to adhere to some kind of a code of conduct and hence, the "polite" reference above. I do mean it.

Re: Abusive bahaviour

What a rediculous blog. Not because Ostaad has been blocked, but because of its denial and hypocrisy. Just because a person has the same political objectives as you or is your "friend" Mr Ayhab it does not mean they can get away with unacceptable and disrespectable behaviour indefinately. I am glad Mr Javid has higher standards than you where this is concerned. In fact, he is very tolerant, which can be seen from the types of comments that still remain on this website.

To be blocked you have to be some kind of repeat offender (not just bad language, but bad behaviour) and you cannot expect JJ to go round deleting comments of same persons all the time. Or to spell it out to people what common sense is.

It is our personal responsibility to be civil to others. And to maintain some type of discipline when addressing others, manners. I do not want anyone to be blocked, but people should accept responsibility for their actions, and realise that there should be no special cases.

In my view what needs to be "fixed" is attitudes and egos.

Craig

You are full of surprises!

There is no "good" way to label somebody as something they aren't

Really? so what is your secret in doing that in such a superior manner?

Take a Lotta of Guts and Audacity to make such claim.

Kharmagas jan

Thank you. The cooki problem is my faulth. I had replied to your comment, don't worry.

I'd got your point about the account blocking (but you know well what I think about that) so I refrain from saying more here.

Sorry for the mis-spelling.

Same problem ;)

Souri

I stand corrected. I reluctantly used that term to prevent the mix up with another poster who happened to be a guy, and had earlier posted a comment in this thread. I can't edit my original comment (cookie issue), otherwise I would correct it to a 'fellow commenter (not a guy)'.

Going back to the subject and away from the details, my comment was mainly about account blocking, .....,   

Kharmagas besiar aziz

In your first comment here, you mentioned a "female poster"

If you were referring to me (I said: if) I wish you won't call me a female poster, dear. I'd rather you call me just a "friend" or a woman.....but not a female! It remind me of a female elephant, lol ;)

Hope you accept my request. You know how much I like and value you.

BTW: I'd sent you an email about that same comment, via IC. Did you get it?

Take care, 

yes Craig

There is no heated debate going on here, there is also no mention of Z word in any form (Zionism, Zionist etc) ... so go get your amusment elsewhere...

Mr. Cost of Progress

Obviously as deep as you are in your dislike of some people who are not in the same polarity as yourself, you have missed the entire point of the blog.

This is not about standing up for anyone, rather a much bigger picture. Being whether the policy is being applied fairly and whether the policy is clear to begin with.

Secondly, don't criticize others while you are doing the same thing.

Here  [Kind of interesting as those who are standing up for him (not everyone)
are generally in the same frame of mind as he is (expectedly).]

Or when you say[but his style is antagonistic with a touch of superiority complex.......]

Shall I bring to your attention what this type of self righteousness is called?

-YT 

P/S I am glad though that this little blog gave you an opportunity to rid yourself of your own aggression toward people, in particular toward myself. 

Did not even know

that Ostaad has been blocked.

He's been abusive on this site on occasion (only once to me when he said STFU to me in one of Freds threads). Since I don't necessarily believe in flagging folks, I let it go. Besides, like EPC said, I'm a big boy.....

He writes about respecting others' point of view, but he had a habit of going around on blogs and mocking people and criticizing them. I am sure they're still there as it has not been that long, like last week.

He does have some good points to make when he's not mocking or criticizing folks, but his style is antagonistic with a touch of superiority complex.......

Kind of interesting as those who are standing up for him (not everyone) are generally in the same frame of mind as he is (expectedly).

...however in the old days (pre ex days)...

And what was your handle in the old days? Because it damn sure wasn't the one you are using now! What happened? Your reputation became too soiled so you re-invented yourself?

...one could use the Z word even in a good context...

There is no "good" way to label somebody as something they aren't. And as far as "good" contexts, I seem to recall your crew using the "z word" interchangeably with other words such as "nazi", "fascist" and "neocon". That's a good context? If it's so great how come you are afraid to say "zionist" now? It seems like even in your own mind you acknowledge you were using it as an epithet, just as people use the "n word" :p

genn-o besmellA! (to Ayhab)

Ayhab, these days this guy, like the leaders of his party, enjoys watching Iranians fight amongst each other and occasionally adds some fire to the fight,......., however in the old days (pre ex days) one could use the Z word even in a good context, and he would quickly blow a few fuses, backfire etc..... the Z word was like besmellA to this genne boo dadeh!
