Mash Ghasem and Tigr Lily are two of my favorite commentators on this site. Unfortunately they are both blocked. They are highly opinionated and independent commentators with no gang mentality when it comes to debating. They are in it to both give and take which every healthy debate should be all about. That is what I admire about them. They characters do not fit into the usual norm of this site and the statement that many make here; either you are with us or you are with the terrorists.
I, for example, had my own share of disagreement with MG on some issues but at the same time I have learned a great deal form our debates.
In addition to the politics, these two members are very much into art, music, and poetry; something that can be seen on their valuable comments. Without them this site is quiet, boring and dull.
This is for you, my friends, whom I have missed so dearly ...

One last thing ....
by Soosan Khanoom on Sat Mar 24, 2012 07:01 AM PDTFaramarz ... here something that I think MG likes. After all he was a Leonard Cohen's fan ... I wish him the best in everything he does ....Same with Tigr Lily and a few others who have been persecuted by JJ.
The light came through the window,"Love Itself"
Straight from the sun above,
And so inside my little room
There plunged the rays of Love.
In streams of light I clearly saw
The dust you seldom see,
Out of which the Nameless makes
A Name for one like me.
I’ll try to say a little more:
Love went on and on
Until it reached an open door –
Then Love Itself
Love Itself was gone.
All busy in the sunlight
The flecks did float and dance,
And I was tumbled up with them
In formless circumstance.
I’ll try to say a little more:
Love went on and on
Until it reached an open door –
Then Love Itself
Love Itself was gone.
Then I came back from where I’d been.
My room, it looked the same –
But there was nothing left between
The Nameless and the Name.
All busy in the sunlight
The flecks did float and dance,
And I was tumbled up with them
In formless circumstance.
I’ll try to say a little more:
Love went on and on
Until it reached an open door –
Then Love itself,
Love Itself was gone.
Love Itself was gone.

by Soosan Khanoom on Sat Mar 24, 2012 06:36 AM PDTThat's one possibility ..
Although I am not sure they would choose that name for their son.
lol
Rozbeh ...lol
by Soosan Khanoom on Sat Mar 24, 2012 06:29 AM PDTPeeshees are smart. They make you believe that you are the owner but you are not ...
I hope she finds her way back ...
Anahid jan,
by Soosan Khanoom on Sat Mar 24, 2012 06:19 AM PDTI am not really sure what was the reason of him being banned? I do not get it when I hear the word " Intense " .. cause everyone here have been intense at some points and yet are still pretty much alive and commenting ...
I still think... JJ has been so unfair. But JJ does not care what we think .. Or at least what I think !!
He brought back Rozbeh but it seems that he can't resurrect MG/SA ?
Maybe I am not the right person to ask him for that...
They
by iraj khan on Fri Mar 23, 2012 04:35 PM PDTran away and got married.
They moved to Hawaii and planning to name their first son Jahanshah.

by Disenchanted on Fri Mar 23, 2012 01:19 PM PDTWhere is my pussy cat?
by Roozbeh_Gilani on Fri Mar 23, 2012 12:22 PM PDTsorry for gate crashing but I have not seen my Pussy cat for good few weeks now and I am rather worried.
it (have no idea about the sex, seems to go both ways...) is a small , yet very fat dark grey cat, likes to steal food, very lazy with tiny , shifty eyes with no signs of intelligence. It answers to the name "mammoot Joon". it makes sounds like meeeeeaaaawwww, fffffffttttttpppppppaaaaaawww, and such , that I, as the owner find rather cute.
Just let me know if you have seen my pussy mammoot, impersonating anyone on Iranian.com and I come catch it.
Thanks for your attention.
MG was not blocked because
by Anahid Hojjati on Fri Mar 23, 2012 09:01 AM PDTbecause of argument with me. He argued with others and that is why he got blocked. I read this myself. I believe Faramarz is knowledgeable about why MG got blocked.

by Soosan Khanoom on Fri Mar 23, 2012 08:41 AM PDTFor those who are Ghahr ... I guess there is nothing we can do but to ask them to kindly reconsider and return but for those who are banned we can ask JJ to help us out. Now, I do not know some of the people that you have mentioned.
I think Souri is around but she is also busy with the Eid thingy...
You're welcome......it's a jewel

Did not flag you - Admin can verify
by Anonymous Observer on Fri Mar 23, 2012 09:08 AM PDTDon't even know what this thread is about. Perhaps because it's your blog?!! I don't read your posts--sorry. Just saw my username in the "recent comments" section and clicked on it.
Good luck with...well, whatever it is that you are up to.

MG is the only real commie on this site... the other ones are too Abakee .. lol

by Soosan Khanoom on Fri Mar 23, 2012 08:18 AM PDTBoth MG and Tigr Lily are Anti-War and I even like them more for that.
Now that Khers expression of yours was so damn funny ... can't stop laughing
He reminds me of some Iranian TV broadcasters from LA ... the one's that Mehran Moderi made fun of ..

by Faramarz on Fri Mar 23, 2012 08:17 AM PDTVirgin Goth spoke in tweeter lingo, like "my bf saz im gd in bd!"
As for Mash Ghasem, he was getting too intense about all the politcal stuff. Maybe he will be back after 13-Bedar.
Rea is probably busy with Khooneh-Tekooni and Deed-o-Baazdeed!
Faramarz ... Who is the Virgin Goth ? lol
by Soosan Khanoom on Fri Mar 23, 2012 08:07 AM PDTAnd yes Rea ... where is she? Same with Shazdeh? But they are not banned ... they probably are busy with Eid's Deed-O- Bazdeed !
Siamack/ MG , although, is entitled to take some time off but seems that that's not the case. He has been banned. How intense do you think he got to deserve the banning? I have seen much worse behavior on this site by some members who were more qualified for that sentencing.
Are you talking about his argument with Anahid?
Dear Mohamamd Ala
by Soosan Khanoom on Fri Mar 23, 2012 07:55 AM PDTI completely understand your frustration. There is a gang mentality going on here with the idea of report them, deport them , etc. Where we see how quickly they gang up and start bad mouthing an individual. This says more about them and their personalities rather than the person who has been their target. It is funny how some here talk about democracy and yet would love to shut up any voices who happens to be in disagreement with them. I may say that they have been quite successful as well. Many have left this site due to these people's immature and unethical behavior. They remind me of the IRI's chomgh- bedast on the motor cycle or the Mubarak's chomgh- bedast on the camel, The thugs on this site just ride on their keyboards instead. Oh well ... I guess we have no choice anyway... cause JJ has no intention to prevent them from behaving so childish.

by maziar 58 on Thu Mar 22, 2012 09:21 PM PDTsome banned and some just quit ghahr.

I am all for all of those banned...

Peraonal attacks are tolerated.
by Mohammad Ala on Thu Mar 22, 2012 08:32 PM PDTIC has become a personal website rather than a public website. Some members’ blog are featured daily and other people’s blogs do not get featured. Some people can racially attack others but others cannot. Jahan Khalili was banned without notice to him. A dozen of people have left IC because of lynching groupie who keep saying: “report them,” “deport them,” “find out where they work, call their place of employment,” etc. Personal attacks especially on kwon people keeps continuing while IC Admin is aware of the problem.
Others Missing in Action
by Faramarz on Thu Mar 22, 2012 08:06 PM PDTI have not seen Rea for a while. She is not the type that gets banned.
Mash Ghasem/Houshang Tareh Gol / Siamak Asadian is probably taking some time off. His recent blogs about his beliefs were getting too intense.
The other one that I miss is Virgin Goth. She was very original in her weird way!
I hope Shazde is back soon. He is one of a kind.

by پندارنیک on Thu Mar 22, 2012 07:16 PM PDTOK.............There're things that we do know and we are not willing to publicize..........so.............I too hope that this chronic issue will be someday solved.............I'm all for a disciplinary action in order to keep the community regulated..............there's nothing wrong with blocking a member or deleting a comment....................However, I've always raised the question of universality of disciplinary action and unbiased judgment. I've enjoyed this site for so many years, since the time that there was no membership per se.............and I've seen so many extraditions and restorations.........If we had a more systematic administration, the revolving door at the IC would've been turning slower................Hopefully some day that will happen............and remember it's always easier to be a critic, than a director.

by Soosan Khanoom on Thu Mar 22, 2012 06:37 PM PDTSome like mahmoudg are still with us. I am not worry about them being gone ... their torches are being carried by other members.. lol
But MG( aka SA ) and Tigr LIly are unique individuals and can only be replaced by themselves... seriously..
Still, I have no clue why they are banned?
