The following list is the names of those who have been named as IC members' favorites. This is not a contest. There are no winners/losers.. However, a quick look at the names/catagories, reveals that patriotism, passion, creativity, humor and roamanticism (poetry/writing) characterize a good majority of our favorites.

Dear Anahid, Farah and Faramarz
by minadadvar on Wed Mar 24, 2010 01:22 PM PDTAnahid Jan, Thanks for correction. You will always remain on my most likable list.
Farah Aziz, Thnaks for the addiotinal names. Most people on this site matter to me, including, you and several of those you mentioned.
Faramarz Khan, The number of people named as most favorite, is roughly around 50 or 60. Are you sure, we only have 50 or 60 readers? Just look at Farah's additional names.
Let's assume, you are right. What is so bad about expressing our appreciation to all those we value? If I had posted a blog about the contributors' negative qualities, we probably would have had many more additional names. But I wanted this blog to be a light-hearted/fun and positive post. Despite my intention, I learned something interesting/significant. Most of us have a pretty accurate perception of "IC Personality (Profile)". Patriotic, poetic, creative with a great sense of humor. The qualities that are lacking are :patience, transparency, objectivity and civility. Do not you think it is a pretty accurate description of the majority on this site?
thanks Azarine Jan :-)
by Orang Gholikhani on Wed Mar 24, 2010 11:56 AM PDTYour are the so kind. The most kind of the site :-)
All IC contributeurs are valuables and we shouldn(t forget readers. A site need contributeurs and readers to be succesful.

It should be a mistake!
by Azarin Sadegh on Wed Mar 24, 2010 11:12 AM PDTI am pretty stunned to find my name (Is there another Azarin on IC?) in this blog (written by a creative and sensitive therapist) and in this category...Wow!!! I am not really that sensitive and anyway, I have always thought only poets should be labled as sensitive, and Orang is my number one choice...a real poet with the sensitivity of a poet!
Thanks for thinking of me, but I think it should be a mistake.
Between us, I have to confess that I wished to be selected in another category...but ALAS :-( Life is never easy!

Thank you Mina for all your efforts here.
But since I am used to sit in the back of the class and always say something out of order (Tak Mezraab), I will do so here too!
I think that the list covers the entire Iranian.com readership!
If anyone is not on the list, please identify yourself! We will find a category for you.
This reminds me of the kids’ baseball league in the US; everyone gets to play and everyone gets a trophy!

ps - what about my good friends: irandokht, captain_ayhab, q, fred, phantom, siavash, amirkabir, david et, fariba amini, masoud Kazemi, mardom mazloom, marhoom kharmagas, and many others whom I can't remember.
thanks Mina jan but mitranorthcal as one of funniest?
by Anahid Hojjati on Wed Mar 24, 2010 09:43 AM PDTDear Mina, thanks for naming me to the list in couple categories. One comment that I have is that I was not named as one of funniest. But mitranorthcal was. I believe body of my work and its comparison with that of mitranorthcal, shows that I am funnier than her. By the way, please don't take me off likable list because of this comment :). Thanks again for inluding me.

by minadadvar on Wed Mar 24, 2010 09:00 AM PDTNot a problem.
Oh, sorry
by Souri on Wed Mar 24, 2010 08:56 AM PDTMina jon,
I forgot to add your own name into the list.
You are added in two categories:
1) Most creative
2) Most sensitive
Thanks again.

by minadadvar on Wed Mar 24, 2010 08:53 AM PDTThis is a revised version of my last blog. I included/added the new names/catagories, based on the commentators' requests.
I do not, entirely, agree with all the additions either. But, I am amazed at the accuracy of the result. It indicates that we at IC are patriotic, , poetic, creative and have great sense of humor. Our weaknesses are: patience, civility, transparency and objectivity.
I am interested in knowing your (others), feedback, regarding the result of this blog.
I greatly appreciate your input.
Kinda fair :)
by Souri on Wed Mar 24, 2010 08:40 AM PDTMina jon,
Thanks for having named me in your list.
However I have some objection to some of the names in some categories. Here :
Most patriotic: Too many people there which are not really qualified :)
My options are:
Most patriotic: Samsam, Fair, DK, VPK, Redwine and Anahid
Funniest: Jeesh daram, Faramarz, Divaneh, Akhtar khanom (and all his brothers and cousins :)), Shazdeh (sometimes ), MPD
Best story tellers: JJ, Nazy Kaviani, Azarin, MPD, JD, Solo, Shazdeh, Ali Ohadi, and Cyrus Moradi
Most objectivel: I'll add VPK too
Most friendly: I'll add Monda
Most real: I'll add myself :)
Most civil: I'll remove Niloufar Parsi
