Please use this forum as a humble question and answer facility (pariprashnena). No censorship on (related) themes or comments.
But, if we see someone using the forum as a way to advance or impose own agenda on others we will act. Same goes for personal evaluations that cover no purpose.
there is concern in our pariprashnena community that some issues are sensitive and freedom of speech can cause suffering to some. As these posts are categorized mainly under "Social", you can avoid seeing those posts or any unwanted category in the following way: Just go to Categories tab and block Social category.You will not see any of the posts there. Of course, you can block/unblock categories anytime you wish.
Tulsiananda and govindas108, you are repeatedly hammering the same theme at any opportunity. If you have a cause to advance we recommend you open your own website and make your theme available to the world. Otherwise Pariprashnena becomes a political means, not a questions and answer medium. Your questions aimed at advancing your position will be deleted. Please stick to the rules and stop making this site your "preaching" field.
we have banned govindas108 and Tulsiananda for violating the above even after being warned. Not a thing that causes us pleasure but clearly needed for the well being of the forum.
please choose appropriate category in the drop down menu when posting a question. For now the admins are fixing the astrays, but they will be deleted as normal procedure.

Some users insist on "asking" questions to provoke a response to advance their mission whatever it may be. When admins delete them they get upset and accuse us of narrow minded, biased or God knows what else. Please understand we have delimited this site for questions that you do not know the answer in the spirit of pariprashnena. Any effort to advance a mission is not condemned but has its own place on the net. Hope this helps further clarify what is stated in the terms of service.
for all Vaishnavas pleasure, two very nice quotes to continue the respectful attitude at pariprashnena:
SB 11.28.1: The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: One should neither praise nor criticize the conditioned nature and activities of other persons. Rather, one should see this world as simply the combination of material nature and the enjoying souls, all based on the one Absolute Truth. http://srimadbhagavatam.com/11/28/1/en
SB 11.28.2: Whoever indulges in praising or criticizing the qualities and behavior of others will quickly become deviated from his own best interest by his entanglement in illusory dualities. http://srimadbhagavatam.com/11/28/2/en
Iskcontech is growing with the new family member iskconmedia.com and we have transferred to another server with more bandwidth and disk space available, so you should have a quicker browsing experience now in all our sites.
If you happen to see an error message or have a problem in the forum, please contact admins in this thread.
Thank you for your continued support. Hare Krishna!
I am new to this site; so please bear with me while I learn the rules. Will keep things short and sweet--that's a good point actually. I agree that this forum shouldn't be used to advance oneself or one's agenda.
Thank you for this magnificent site where one can connect with other God-brothers wedded to Krishna Consciousness.
May Krishna shower all His blessings on all devotees and this great site.
I believe this site can be an excellent venue for the congregation of vaishnava devotees to ask questions and to answer them in the spirit of vaishnavism
- Some devotees are posting several times in a row, that is considered spam and is not allowed, and those posts will be moderated. - Keep in mind that the philosophy of this forum is that the user asks a question opening a thread in the appropriate section and others answer. Each question should be enclosed in a thread so that later others can find it easily. - Try not to open a thread so that others make questions... that is the forum itself function.
From now on we will delete or moderate posts that go astray from the original question or breach the above guidelines. There is no lack of disk space, so feel free to open as many different questions as you may need.
Dear admin. I actually forgive portnoy (Purushottam Prabhu) for this transgressions. He was very passionate, but I take all the blame. Because he is so senior (even if not practicing at the moment), and because he was the first Prabhupada disciple who was his personal servant, I would appreciate if you unblock him. He is extreme, but we will benefit from his association (provided he does not put others down too much). I will understand if you can not do it -- I only judge it by the photo he uploaded and by the fact that he spoke about some incident from early days with Brahmananda.
when foul language and abuses come online, it makes very difficult to pay a deaf ear from the admin point of view. We will unblock portnoy this time, but everybody must understand that a basic order has to be maintained as this is obviously a public place.
Lately there are some users that are getting constantly in the mood of flaming and personal attack. From now on, we will apply very strictly the policies of no foul language and no personal attack or abuse by anyone. Last warning.
if the individual siva srigovindadas vrishadevadas lallasamayi yamalaaryuna continues to make multiple accounts we´ll have to contact his internet provider and consequences may occur.
we are going to upgrade the forum software, so expect a blackout ranging from a few hours to a couple days if things go nuts... Hare Krishna and thank you to all users for their time!!
