Too much concentration of power in a little number of irresponsible hands will eventually lead to the destruction of the purpose and faith of the people in India Rail Info, a site used by thousands and thousands of railfans and also common people. I sincerely hope that the site operators/moderator bring about some changes in the power structure in this site so that people can be more open and free and that these positions should be awarded on the basis of credibility and not only no. of ratings/blog posts etc. Admins/FMs do whatever they want without thinking about the consequences or feelings of a number of various members, like just today an active blog discussing a particular member's trip got derailed due to archiving of the blog entry by a single FM (Whom I don't blame for doing so, since he is following the rules).

the mouth of the majority of the members who were all of the same opinion by a single person. The power vested in the various site monitors has to be reduced now so that IRI becomes a truly open discussion forum. I hope that in the future, golden days of IRI return to it. My sincere request to the people responsible for the site would be to introduce a rational system where in the rights of every member can be protected and also that the level of discussions in IRI can be maintained.

Do you even know what was the matter ? The particular member was a High Post member. Forum Monitor. He faked his trip in the train and blocked people who asked him for the loco pic or other details. Kindly read it properly, before arriving at any conclusion.

I am fully aware of that matter and I read all the around 220 comments. This post makes reference to that fake trip only and hence I have mentioned tat some kind of credibility check has to be performed before awarding the status of being an FM

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
