I just visited two threads that have personal attacks like none I have seen before here. Of course, one can ignore them. And choose to stick to healthier threads. But this is a drain. Censorship is not an answer.

But perhaps better customization options. So one can choose to permanently ignore some posters. Or have a My Favorites section for the posters one would like to keep coming back to. Or something.

Some of the attacks are outright sexist and racist/ethnicist. They are not personal. But even they come cloaked in the vilest language pretending to be mere disgust at specific individuals.

Sajha is a good place to understand the inner feelings of people. The true nature of people is brought out by the anonymity that sajha.com offers. I say, sajha.com should continue to be the exact same site that it has always been.

This is a good medium to bring all the pent-up frustations of our generation. The animocity between castes and races can not be ignored. It has always been simmering under-neath. At least now we know the extent of these animocity and now may be we can do something about it.

Hating others will never solve your problem! Ignoring will not make problems go away!
