no pls

like/dislike causes lots of forum wars.

Political thread is open. Please post in it. Lets get a sense of normalcy in this turbulent times

woohoo. We are back. Thanks for those who made this happen.

I have managed a very active forum.If any help is required please let me know.

SRoy here. Retaining my BRF handle.

That was quick!! Thanks Dileep and everyone else who set this up. Good job with the look of the forum as well (Personally makes no real diff).

Long time lurker and very very occasional poster on brf. I remember how the politics thread was growing as the 2014 results were coming in.

Nice to see a lot of folks here already. I have the same id on brf/BGF.

Happy to contribute towards the costs incurred.

Thanks for setting this up. Mostly a lurker on GDF before, other than occasional writing on ngo/twitter/politics threads.

Thanks Dileep star and all others who made this possible. I have the same name on BRF, although post only occasionally.

Thanks Dileep for this forum. Have changed my login id to Taurian1976 as it's becoming quite clear that we all need to protect our identity online.
Regards,
Vish

Joining in, same ID. I know it is odd, but that's been my handle on the net since '97 or so.

Some suggestions/qutestions if I may.

1. I am very happy to contribute to the upkeep and whatever other costs that are incurred.

2. Please, NO likes/dislikes/thanks for posts. This creates cliques and mutual-admiration groups that are harmful to the integrity of the forum.

3. We need to moderate ourselves, members, humble request to avoid ad-hominem attacks. Let the opposite POV exist, ignore the post/author if you do not like the substance.

4. To avoid the menace of lawsuits and such (or worse actions), suggest posting third party content without editorializing.

5. Is the threat less if the forum is hosted outside India? I am assuming BRF is based in India. If a US location would offer greater indemnity against lawsuits or other threats (if that was what caused the demise of GDF), should we consider moving BGR elsewhere? If the cost is an issue, I am quite willing to support it and I am sure there will be plenty of others willing to pitch in.

am niran just testing this one is keewik real keewik

Hari Seldon here, retaining moi old BRF handle.

Good to be back among familiar gurus and garus, mangos and tangos... onlee.

Hi everyone,
I am atamjeetsingh from BRF,kept the same ID here too.
Thanks to creator Dileep/Sharvan and other.

Assalamualaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh!

Hi folks.... Great to see this place up and running so soon! Thanks to Dileep et al!

Raj from brf. Mostly lurker on brf. Joined brf in late 1990's. Hope this forum succeeds.

Bismillah with a nice picture

Hello folks,

1. Thanks for all the offers to help financially. After some thought I decided to decline that. At least for now.
2. We will have moderator and phpbb admin nomination later today.
3. We will not cause any harm to BRF. That is 'tharavad', and we are a 'branch family'. We will uphold the 'family honor'.
4. We should not be seen as a serious platform. That will give us some immunity against targeting. BRF got into trouble because it is indeed a serious forum. Starting with and focusing on GDF is a good way for that.

Dr. Raju Shah reporting, Anantha is BRF handle.
Thanks all IT gurus for pulling this off so quickly.

la.khan reporting for duty; same ID as BRF.

Thanks to Dileep sir for setting this up so quickly. Nice name for a nationalistic forum! Hope BGF gathers steam & strength and be like BRF!!

Great job getting this up and running so quickly! My Id is the same from BRF.

Chandrasekaran here - Same BRF Handle. Many thanks for such creating this "Tharavaad" so fast

Syam from there to here.
