To be honest, I feel that my understanding of and familiarity with Indian culture is a bit lacking, but this forum has helped me to better understand the Indian character, beyond the textbook stuff we hear about India (Gandhi, Taj Mahal, etc.) and the new stories we hear about India. It's all pretty fascinating to me, and of course, I'd be very happy to learn more about your country. Oh, I should also mention another country with a strong presence here--Vietnam. To all Vietnamese--I would also like to learn more about your country, too! Actually, I think I have a bit more contact with Vietnamese than I do with Indians (for whatever reason), but most of the Vietnamese I know are Chinese who immigrated to Vietnam earlier in their lives, and now live in the US. (It seems there is quite a strong Chinese diaspora--most of the Indonesians, Thais, and Vietnamese I know are of Chinese descent.) About the length of this thread--this thread is not very long compared to some other ones on the Internet.

ss6872 Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 How do you become a moderator? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erin Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Originally posted by ss6872 How do you become a moderator?I watch people over time to see how they participate in the group, how responsible and helpful they are, etc. I then send them an email asking them if they'd be interested in becoming a moderator. The current moderators have been exceptionally active and helpful in the forum, if you look at their previous posts. I always enjoyed Raghuveer's spirited interaction! Sri has shown a lot of goodness and kindness when dealing with others, and Renata helped many, many people with their essays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ss6872 Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Thanks for that information ,Erin. As for the signs for moderators, I think stars should be uniquely used for moderators, maybe you can change the color. What do you think, Sri?

Sri Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 I think stars belong exclusively to the MAGICIAN and even moderators shud get some other icon...What say???? Sri :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roborob Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Sci, I clicked on the "Members" tab, but it just pulled up a list of people in this entire forum. I wanted a running count of the number of posts that this thread has. Where is that info? Thanks! Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sri Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Oh ok, I thought u were asking about the number of posts made by each member...Sorry my bad :). Ok to see the number of posts in this topic u gotta go to the parent level of this thread. So go to the "Jokes and Games" section and u'll find all the threads in that section. The third section displays the number of replies for the post and that's the number u r looking for. HTH -Sri. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roborob Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Sri, Duh... OK, that was a stupid question... thanks though. :-D We still have a looooooong way before we set any records.... if every on on this forum would contribute one a day, we could get there a lot faster! So, Sri, I see your name in a lot of posts here... which test are you studying for or have taken? Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
