Hi People,
I am not sure how many of you remember me... I have been a member of
the group since 2003 and have been a moderator ever since. And yes, I
am related to the other, more active Khoda on the group.
Of late I haven't been active in the group even though i regularly
visit the group and still do my share of moderating.
The content of the group has been on a downslide for quite some time
now. All I see are forwards and "will you my friend" sort of messages.
Rarely do I see the messages we used to have in the bygone time, when
Varun, & Nitin were less occupied and much much more active in the
group. I will not shirk my responsibility and take my share of blame.
But if you ever get time, do read the archives of the group, you'll
see the transition in many a members of the group from insecure twenty
somethings to confident adults, just as when you stick a tad too long
on Mall, you tend to see your compatriots changing, just as you change
yourself.
This is really is a Mall on the Net, as it has been since the start.
Congratulations nitin for sticking to the spirit of the group.
