Back in the old days, a man's word was gold and they would rather die than not keep their words. In the past, when someone made a promise, the person would do everything to achieve the promise that he or she made. Now I look at a simple example as knowledgesutra or xisto and I realize that there is no such thing as a man's word or honoring a promise anymore.
Yes time changed, but a man's word will always be a man's word and so will a promise. Even as a woman if I look at a man who does not keep his word I would never hold respect for him.
When I first joined knowledgesutra a year ago, one of the reasons that I joined it was because it was subtitled a quest for knowledge and now it is subtitled innocence is a bliss. Change is good sometimes but not when you change the whole theme of your mission. We all look for knowledge everyday in our lives. But why the heck would anyone think of joining a forum that goes by the theme of innocence is a bliss?
I have been observing for a year and I noticed a couple of things. First and foremost, we have a couple of admins who started a family on this community and who have brought together people from all over the globe in one place where people can share ideas and knowledge and culture. Then those admins for reasons only they know about, decided to abandon the family they created. If a man creates a family and brings children to this world and then wakes up one day to realize that he has had enough and then walks out on his family abandoning all of them, does anyone give this man an excuse for what he has done? The fact that he is responsible for bringing this family would never be demolished. Well, so are the admins of this place. They decided to bring a family in this community and they have huge responsibilities and big obligations for the knowledgesutra members that trusted them. Even if they run away from their own responsibilities and even if they lie to themselves that they are not doing anything wrong, the facts never change and their actions will never change the fact that they abandoned the family they created on Knowledgesutra. I feel sorry for them because their word alone is no longer good when they have promised things so many times to the members and delivered nothing from what they promised.
I am a journalist and a film maker and I learned through my career that the very first thing that is important for a human being is his credibility. How can someone be respectable if he can't be credible and can't be trusted? For example, Can I as a journalist not respect deadlines or can I as a newspaper editor not publish the newspaper on time? What happens if I slack off and not deliver on time? My readers will never trust me again and they will look for the news elsewhere! Well this is also applicable in life. A bad reputation can end someone's career. A bad news article can end someone's business. I don't understand how the creators of this place do not think of those things! How can they not keep their promises or their words that they owe the members of this place and xisto too?
Let's talk about xisto...How many people are having problems with xisto? Isn't this ignorant and not smart to let the clients of xisto be enraged because they are not finding the support they need? There are tons of other domain and hosting companies all over the internet and if xisto's clients don't find what they are looking for on xisto there is nothing stopping them from leaving and to be frank xisto is not exactly a famous name so even the existing clients they already have will come to know about the bad customer service and then what? How many clients will they have left?
Why go through all of this in the first place when they can aspire to be more professional? Where is your professionalism Knowledgesutra and xisto? By the code of ethics, this place and xisto are not doing something ethical by leaving their customers swamped with many unresolved problems and not keeping their words that they promised their customers and members.
Opaque, here's a personal request from me. I have never asked you for anything since I became a member so I hope you at least listen to me when I ask you for something this time. Would you please resolve the problems we as your members and family on knowledgesutra have and would you look into the problems we have on xisto so that this community would be back to how it used to be ONCE UPON A TIME?
