What is so bad about it that the fact that they are “Indian” is mentioned here as if it is a crime? Is it because they are Indian or is it because they are not Pakistani nationals?
I know that generally if a Pakistani comments on an India-centric forum, he/she is enthusiastically abused. But do we have to reciprocate?
Remember that there are over a billion Indians in this world. The fact that a few of them find their way on to this forum shouldn’t readily be credited to their evil intentions.
On a serious note, its impossible to keep indians away from any forum. They make most of the traffic , member or not. If you ban Indians then you face the same fate as Cricketnama (gone down the hill becoz of few policy (( i say this with risk of getting banned)) or PDF.
Come on, we are the same people, where else can i post in roman hindi and punjabi where a foreigner can undrstnad it.

No nothing wrong at all. Sometimes if a poster brings it up for someone being indian, he/she most likely be pulling leg, nothing more than that.
And yes its a fact that Pakistanis are literally abused in pretty much every indian website but here we try to exhibit that we are educated and behaved beings who know how to respect each other. And all disciplinary actions that we take are in front of you regarless of political, religion or regional affiliation.
Everyone is very well welcomed on GS as long (as they stick to the basic rules) :)
When an Indian comments on only Pakistani politics and treats Indian politics as a world that doesnt exist, then it gets a bit spooky. Otherwise I like KKF.

Ok now here you have done what's called, "bongee" maar di.
First read my post earlier, and then read your quoted post, and then read below note again.
I have no idea why some people think like the way you have mentioned it the bold part that the business is running just because of them. GS is like an institution so it'll keep on running even if people like me or you stop coming here. Its a whole open world my friend and NOBODY is the integral part, not you not me.
Regarding Cricketnama, you know it gets buisy when our team plays more and gets slow otherwise. And it does make complete sense regarless of who visits there and who not.
And if you still think that guppies from any particular country/area/segment etc are running the show, you can do whatever you want and you'll see the show keeps going on..
its amazing to see how much passion KKF brings to the GS PTI movement.
i dont see the problem as long as people know the posters are indian and are likely coming from that bias/perspective. on GS politics where majority are worshippers of imran or nawaz or bhutto or bhai, indians may be the least biased commentators.
I have absolutely no problem with that. Indians can comment on Pakistan’s politics (or issues) as much as they want. I am sure they are sane enough to not throw stones at others while sitting in glass house…phew… that was my mahawara of the week.
At my previous job, I used to comment, discuss and debate everyday with Indians on their election earlier this year
Like SID says websites are not about individuals but everyone who contributes to a website, not only GS but generally as well and noone has any problem with any nationality commenting on anything, the motto always is criticise the post and not the poster. I am sure people know Niksik was a CM and Khattichic is a CM too, Southie was a Mod as well, all Indians. Naturally we are sensitive as the forum is Pakistani and dominated by Pakistanis so sometimes the sensitivity is understandable but I like the contributions from Indian members, even if I do not like what is being said, and appreciate their POV on things as well. Sometimes the back and forth Pak-Indo banter makes threads more fun to read.

There is an odd contradiction between those Indians who feel they are so much more advanced then Pakistan that it is no longer worthy of their time or concern, and those Indians who frequent Pakistani forums... Pakistan it seems occupies a very dark contradictory corner of the Indian psyche. They hate us, they love us, they want nothing to do with us, they cant get enough of us. very bipolar.

ditto
I love contribution from Indian posters......makes it so much more fun.
the only point that i want to make (shak made it above as well and i made it few days ago too) that at end of the day it is a pakistani forum and probably 98% of posters are from pakistani origin...so indians posters should this keep this in mind while presenting their viewpoint on different topics....any topic is fair game as long as the intention is not to openly malice pakistan with a biased perspective.
Basically he is saying that Indian posters should behave (and feel) just like we (around 15 Pakistanis) did sitting between 400-500 Indians in Indian cultural center during live viewing of Pak Vs Ind WC 2003 game
that is fine chora jee…and using the same analogy that you gave, indians posters @ KK are absolutely fine and they can scream India zindabad, jeetay ka India and all other similar gestures as loud as they want but once they start screaming for example kashmir bee hamara hai, World cup be hamara hai,..or loser pakistanis can never beat us in WC, that will of course not be allowed…just giving an example by the way to make a point. and honestly speaking most of the indian guppies have never disappointed…they have enough intellectual IQ to know when not to cross the red line
That is so funny. I still get confused sometimes with that shaking head and not even me , it happens all the time at work when some indian guy is shaking head and the opposite person (mostly white) has to ask if is a yes or no
