h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

QUALITY LEADERS:

If the political leaders of today are Creative minded and sincerely devoted to their services and determind to help the nations live in 'Ideal manner' with 'Creative Living Spirit' only then nations can be happy and contended and live with peace of mind.

Do the political leaders possess these qualities?

Are they Creative, sincere, devoted, positive and so on ?

Or are we in shortage of quality leaders now?

Hi, I think we had conversation about posting to h2g2 once before. Do you remember?

Mina, that posting sounded very out of character to me. Do you not apprieciate A.R.Shams' contributions? I am curious to know what made you post that in a way I can't remember seeing you post before.

Tango

I suspect it's more to do wih the fact that AR Shams is spamming the site and has been repeatedly asked not to do so, Tango (and yes, I'm guessing you already know that, but AR Shams doesn't seem to be taking any notice of anyone's comments).

Could you *possibly* contain this kind of thing to your Personal Space, AR?

Best wishes, and best of luck with the philosophy,

Ok, I read "posting to H2G2" as posting anywhere on h2g2, ie. that he should be here at all. And that seemed very unlike mina. Fair enough! I take back my comments, Mina.

Tango

Thanks Jimster.

Tango, I am trying politely to remind A R Shams that I spoke to him about his posting method before. It worked last time (for a time).

Although it would help if he occasionally came back and read responses to his comments.

I'm suprised i've never met him before, I have had a look at a few of his conversations. He seems to have perfected the art of annoying people. I guess that explains you response.

Editorial Note: This conversation has been moved from 'Contributing to the Guide' to 'Creative Living Spirit'.

This Posting has been moved back to the Researcher's Personal Space.

IMHO, not then returning to read comments to your postings when spamming actually worsens the offence. Of all I've seen of this A. R. Shams guy, he's not once posted in a way that's appropriate to the thread.

*goes off to hunt out a particularly memorable example*

Whoami?

Ah - here it is. Right in the middle of a Peer Review thread, when we're trying to explain that the material isn't suitable according to the Guidelines, A.R., who's subscribed to Peer Review, posted this response:

F102324?thread=219169&post=2552099#p2552099

There we go. However, if you click on the uppermost ball in the post, you'll find that A.R. replied to BradGUTH's first posting - so it is *possible* that he hadn't read the resulting thread and the placing of the reply was simply unfortunate.

To my mind, however, the practice of not reading replies to his threads is the major factor...

Whoami?

Technically he's not Spamming though, I've never seen 2 identical (or very similar) posts by him. They are all along the same lines but different. It's annoying but not against the house rules.

Tango

According to the House Rules, that is spamming, very similar.

No spamming or flooding. On h2g2, spamming is the posting of the same (or very similar) messages to lots of forums.

However, it's a very slow kind of spam.

But aren't they all on slightly different topics? They are part of the same series, yes, but so are all the columns on <./>ThePost</.>, and they are not spam.

Tango

Hmm, the ones I read in the beginning were all pretty similar, maybe he's branching out, in which case you are right. Although I'm sure that I've seen ones about leaders before.
