    First let me make my self clear in this to all those people who are getting ready to scold me for me putting this thread. I put this thread after analyzing Elakiri for the past few weeks. So im not putting this after just seeing it for one or two days. And also i have been a member here since 2006 so i can notice the change here.

    Well coming back to the topic. I have noticed in the past few days that some of the really good members here at Elakiri have gone away. For example once guy who was really active here was Teenstar. Now i dont see him here any more. And also when ever i come online i used to check the new posts section. In good old days there used to lots of new threads that were very interesting and useful. But now i only see a few threads under new posts and also many being threads that are attacking other religions. It is true that our admin has put up rules saying you cannot post threads against religions and stuff but i dont see them being implemented here. You post another Sri Lankan website link in here and withing 24 hrs the thread is removed and the member who posted it is most probably banned. But in this new rules it doesnt seem to be happening. Iam not blaming the Admin for this but as an admin he should looks into these no. If he doesnt have time then he should at least appoint moderators who can be trusted to control this.

    Well i wont talk much. Lets see what your opinion is. Im putting up a poll also here. Iam sure that many will vote for the "No" option but Iam just asking you to be honest with your vote.

    I feel sorry about this situation. Just because of some jokers trying to play the fool in here the once very popular Elakiri is now going down in popularity in my view.

    Thanks.

    P.S. - What I have expressed here is what I think. I have the freedom of expression and thoughts given to me by the law of the country hence iam expressing my opinion. If any person thinks that this hurts them in any way then im sorry about that as I didnt intend to do so. If the administrator GTRZ bro thinks that by putting this post im working against Elakiri and im not suitable to be a member here then i wont protest for a decision taken by him to ban me from this forum.

    Yes i also agreed with u. bt not completely... Elakiri is the most populre website in sri lanka without any hesitation.i think ELAKIRI is really lucky. because compairinr to other forum website in sri lanka EK is way before them. those website cant event touch the tail of the EK.

    I also notised lot of active members in past are no longer with EK. i have seen them online. bt they dont post. i dont know why is that....

    in past in EK their are lot of Educational stuff, and new thing to learn. bt now elakiri is full of JOKES and CHAT threads.

    It is really good that GT put a separate section to CHAT. normally i dont care the people always chat... i care about the people who put smthng to Ek...( plz dnt misunderstand me guys. i don't like the chat threads in EK. This is my personal view.)

    And i also want to know Wat happen to EK PRO???

    i think most of the members in ek pro is not posting in EK now...

    bt i don't think the popularity of the EK is going down. see the members online. it is always more than 100.

    LONG LIVE EK....

    EK is da best...

    I know you are talking about the Anti-Muslim posts bro. And there are two sides of it.
    So can't ban them since we should have some way to talk the truth and understand it scientifically.
    To my opinion we should discuss about any religion and develop it. There is nothing like we should believe anything since its in the religion.
    At the same time we should try not to insult some party based on our new ideas.

    Anyway i am planning to end this very soon. It'll be a separate place if you want to think out of the box. And think logically.
    You are free to say what you like without fighting and insulting each other. You can criticize anything as you like.
    But it will be a separate place and will not appear on homepage recent threads. So enthusiasts who wanna talk about reality and find the truth can join there and debate.

    About Elakiri its not going down at all. Day by day it grows burning holes in the pocket ;)
    But i know some loyal members are not satisfied due to these religion issues. So i am going to implement the above idea very soon.
    Other than that i have really big hopes with Beta 3. I hope all old and new members will love it and find the way back to elakiri. :yes:

    And TEENSTAR is not online bcoz he is now paying attention on his Job i Suppose..:rolleyes:

    But...the member list is increasing without Stopping...:)
    So cannot say we r losing the popularity..!!

    But..Old Members r not very Active...I Agree..:yes:

    most are involved in Studies..Including me..And Some are in Jobs..they may have no time to Log in...or they may have time but they may haven't got a nice environment as they had before to actively participate in Elakiri Day today Activities...like sharing for instance..

    likewise...we have many Guests...more than Online members...:)almost in Everyday..:)

    We can't stop that by rules machan. But we can stop it by ranks and reputation :D
    That's what upcoming new Member ranking system is all about.

    well bro appreciate ur quick reply. well im not talking abt the anti muslim threads only. just search around EK and c. how many threads are there against all other religions?? then wen a certain member of da religion replies trying to defend it then lyk a hundred ppl start jumping on him trying to justify the absusive post even if it is wrong. I see that only around 1% of the replies which come for those kind of threads are from nutral ppl. all the others are like scolding on guy in main.

    well one solution that i wud take if i was an administrator in any site lyk this wud be that remove any thread that is against any religion. its not nice ne. this country has enugh of problems already. does Elakiri want to make more problems by allowing stuff lyk this?? there is enough of communalism going on in this country. as one of the best(i still consider EK to be best) online forums we shud be trying to prevent this frm happening rather than allowing it to happen right??

    hope that u understand wat im trying to say bro.

    WEll good post machanzzzzz
    I also felt that the EK'S standard z growing down,not da popularity caz itz growing rapidly these days as loads of new members r registering everyday (most probably 4 da Downloading latest Videos and Songs that EK release )
    Talking about Standard,lot of them post here 2 increase their post count.Can c them clearly bcaz they post only mmmmmmm,AH, wat? etc...(2 me dose comments r ok 4 a joke bcaz nthng 2 say there,bt those people post them 4 a valuable topic also ).Gt 2 stop that.Itz good 2 hear tht new ranking system wud com in near future...Im sure it l help 2 stop this.

    Also talking abt old members,most of them r still posting in EK,but some of them r online,but nt posting anythng,I cant understand y z tht.

    Dnt wory bro
    diz znt a thng 2 get banned 4m EK
    U hav da chance 2 express ur ideas here.
