The site and the entire community deeply appreciates your efforts in keeping the information fresh and in helping fellow passengers. We are all extremely fortunate and privileged to have your participation in the site's activities. Now and again, there are some accusations in the forum that info is inaccurate, or that the site is deficient in other respects, or that other sites are better than this one. Although constructive criticism is very welcome, negative criticism without a point helps no one, and only inflames tempers. Some notes on this aspect:
1. The site does NOT claim 100% accuracy of information. Inaccuracies are inevitable. This point has been noted and repeated in RED letters in several places within the site. Therefore, any criticism...
more... regarding this point is unfounded, since we ourselves openly acknowledge that there are inaccuracies.
2. The site does NOT claim to be the best site in any category. The internet has billions of websites - this is one such site with its own community of dedicated bloggers. Many other rail sites and other social sites are much better than this one in terms of information accuracy as well as presentation of information. Given our admission of this fact, once again, there is no grounds for negative criticism or argument, since we ourselves declare and admit this point.
3. All information in this site is secondary - from other sites, news articles, members' inputs. This site does not operate Indian Railways trains. Any timetable, running status and other information reflects public information already available in newspapers, blogs and other locations. Such information is liable to change at any time, as is the case with any other transportation system.
4. Members and Admins are not liable or responsible to defend the site against negative criticism. We are all extremely proud and privileged to have this thriving and vibrant community of bloggers. Like any other site, this site will have its detractors. This fact is recognized. We respect individual freedoms and varying tastes. Some bloggers will find other sites and communities more suitable to their tastes - once again this fact is duly respected.
Whenever there is non-constructive negative criticism of this site, you may refer this Site Announcement Blog Entry, instead of wasting your valuable time in the defence of this site. Any aspect/disclaimer that is ignored here may please be added within this thread.
Thanks very much.
