Russian forums

English-speaking forums

Unfortunately, we must say that culture of these discussions members sometime are low. Even for me (Alexander Shagaev)  was very difficult to control myself sometime. Sometime it is obvious and I am sorry about my needless emotional reaction taking place during discussions with some discussion members. We don’t think that all members of these discussions are ill-mannered. There are many interesting ideas (from different fields of science and technics) at these forums. It is necessary to develop a mechanism to prevent ill-mannered behavior of members of these forums. We think that following actions can be useful for the realization of these purposes:

1)   publicity of real data (full names, job place, job position, scientific degree) of all members of forums;

2)   the ban of any abusive statements (the violation of this rule must result in automatic expulsion corresponding person from the members list of this forum).

Other actions maybe proposed for these purposes also. We hope that common sense will win and intercourse between members will have cultural and correct forms.
