  • harpal singh you are a newbie read more into the politics and then understand who kicked you out

  • Guys:
    1. This blog post hardly makes sense. If you want your story to be heard, please try and write a comprehensible post. Profiles get deleted all the time, for various reasons and – as much as we like to criticize CS – this doesn’t automatically qualify as a bad thing.
    2. Please, for the love of god, use punctuation, capital letters and complete sentences. It seriously improves readability and therefor your message.

  • Ok. Following some of the links, this seems to be the story implied by Eeye:
    - CS member “Dr. Harpal Singh” got into some kind of discussion with a certain “Lady Ri” (yes, doctor versus lady) who seemed to be country amb for India. The point of discussion centered around CS parties/meetings and what should or shouldn’t be posted in certain areas.
    - “Lady Ri” was accepted into the safety team.
    - Dr. Harry’s profile was subsequently deleted.

    Correlation does not imply causality, but there might be something here.

  • Safety Team? What is that? Never heard of such a dark name. Can someone explain?

  • robino, they’re the “agents of security” who work behind the scenes, flying under the radar, to keep you safe while you sleep.

    Or in less abstract terms, the safety team is responsible for “safety” on CS. They have extensive power and authority (from comrade Casey) to delete profiles, ban members, delete posts / threads, and so on. Naturally, this power is completely unaccountable, totally non-public, and of course there is no appeal process or external auditing. You just gotta trust them man, that’s how the system works! :)

We are dedicated to member privacy. We are not the police, but we can help you to work out your differences with members should you need some advice.

    Very True:
    - CS member “Dr. Harpal Singh”, (Myself) got into some kind of discussion with a certain “Lady Ri” (yes, doctor versus lady) who seemed to be country ambassador for South Africa,” than what the hell she is doing in New Delhi, India”—yeah true, she can participate in all type of discussions everywhere and she claims —”she has lost one part of her heart in Delhi but this does not empower her to stop all delhi cs parties , sitting in SA”. The point of discussion centered around CS parties/meetings and what should or shouldn’t be posted in certain areas.
    - Meanwhile “Lady Ri” was accepted into the safety AND MEMBER DISPUTES TEAM OF CS.
    - Dr. Harry’s(mine) profile was subsequently deleted.
    SHAME ON LADY RI AND COUCH-SURFING TEAM as a whole!

  • Orwell’s future is run by a Party whose job is the total exercise of Power, and it goes about its job with diabolic efficiency and ingenuity. The Party represents itself as the embodiment of the principles of Ingsoc, or English Socialism. These principles turn out to be: blind, unquestioning obedience to the Party, and equally blind hatred of any person or group the Party proclaims as its enemy. These emotions are the only ones permitted to anybody; all others, such as personal and family love, are systematically stamped out.

    We have only four reasons that a group post can be deleted: in case of duplicates (when a member posts the same thing twice), at the request of the member who posted it, if it is spam, or for safety reasons.

  • dr harpal singh malhotra

    crux– am i getting my profile back; or it is a sabotage?
    or delhi cs re-unite meet and my dilli haat,delhi meet was a bluff!?

  • Either you were a security risk or you were the POPE.

    While our Terms protect us and allow us to remove profiles for any reason at all (section 9), we only remove members for breaching our Terms, or in the circumstance that we find a profile that is surely a fake (for example, we removed a profile of the Pope).
