#53You should post this on http://hackerstreet.in/ as well.
This one is more like a personal forum where people (maybe) known or close to the owner of domain/forum rule(just my somewhat far fetched speculation). There are no set forum rules or guidelines and the one that they follow on "as it comes" are decided after seeing who the guy is in question. A newbie, a lurker or an established founder or so. So, my request is to keep it HN Meetup and not to make it HS Meetup or H(S…

Any examples of this behavior? Who is currently ruling HSI? I would be very interested in hearing more on this.

I haven't seen any such behaviour on HSI. Prateek even goes out of his way to keep a low profile there.

HS may have evolved into the HN of India because of Prateek's efforts but it has still retained its own identity.

As I said it was just my two cents and here http://hackerstreet.in/item?id=23904 is what I had seen there and was referring to. Though, I myself was not very active on HS and never visited after this. There was one more incident that I couldn't find in my browser history.
It's not sth serious but I was very disturbed to see how one guy had raised a valid concern and almost everyone jumped on him with logic like "this is from a star personality", "it was not posted by someone from the company" and "one person didn't find it relevant, others did". The last one was very odd and even more add was the related founder's reaction. The guy (who had originally raised the question) had just mentioned and pointed out the similarity and the he(founder) was like http://hackerstreet.in/item?id=23917.
And worst of all, people found it irrelevant when someone wanted to share a simple nice feedback(http://hackerstreet.in/item?id=23765); even forum owner(pd) frowned upon it(well, he was the firs one). And the entire community showed its double standard when it came to someone more successful, known on forum. Sadly the guy(who had first raised the concern) didn't post anything after that and neither the guy whose post was frowned upon.
Maybe rightly so, because I guess it was just me and that guy who found it odd or maybe some more people. This doesn't happen on HN. Here are too far many people for one post's fate to be decided by a small circle.
Here, if you deserve it, you get it!
@prateekdayal: Please understand that I didn't mean any offence if you took any. I had the almost the same questions and if you check my ID there(same as HN) I hardly participated, I was just a lurker but still I found it odd and not well handled. Maybe HS needs to mature and more members with down-voting power needs to be there, which shall certainly take time. 'People known to forum owner' was a remark marked as a 'maybe' and that's what it was. Yes, it did sound like an allegation of some sort(apologies, if it did) but then again it was based upon the behaviour I observed.
Thanks for coming here yourself and replying.
