The thoughts have been very well put across by Anil,Lekshmi and the others.It is extremely frustrating to see the kinda posts in the name of help.Shoddily written repetitive posts are really nauseatic! Plus people saying if you like it,press thanks and/or comment is again sheer stupidity! Imagine this is being done by members who are qualified CA,CS,MBA! I never knew that a thanks can win you a mug,t-shirt or an ipod until Lekshmi told me and that is when I could put two and two together. Can't these highly qualified members afford these themselves. What high does one get by collecting points but falling to the level to gain the same?
When I joined CCI, I was quite pleased with the kind of articles I got to read,the files I got to save and the forum where I got to read the discussion.Alas,I deleted my account a few months back when I saw what I saw! I had to be back to see the new updates but things have gone murkier here!Somebody asking to join his/her own fans' community is also outright cheap and ridiculous!
I must tell you that the repetitive articles and the audacity of the members begging for a thanks for the same is too much! As Lekshmi rightly put,it's nothing but spam...I was thinking of writing a post myself but thanks to Anil who brought this up again after Dhaval was coined a rebel!
There are so many good articles and forum messages that we miss because most people go ahead and check the most popular posts and articles and end up missing out on something really good. I am terribly short on my CA Finals preparations and about to sit the May Exams but I am so frustrated and irritataed with what I see on CCi is that I had to write this. I especially remember a couple of articles which were really helpful when you really talk about tips and tricks (although I second your opinion that tricks and tips do not take us a long way) were articles from Samvit Durga and Maya Delves.I mean these are just 2 examples and I am the last one to propogate names and articles.
Tell me how does it help when someone says be confident,check scanner,find the important questions,plan,don't think about the paper gone by,plan your time....blah blah?Even a Standard 10th guy knows this and more!
I don't even mind teachers advertising their coaching centres here but not posing as students singing paens for a particular institute or a specific teacher! They should be separated as advertisements and should not form part of the Forum etc in anyway!
There's a lot we can do on this website like Anil suggested. There are many of us who do not know where to find financial knowledge beyond text books..say a 2G Scam...why not write a gist of what the facts of the case are or for that matter talk and discuss about IFRS,GST,DT Code?
How does a worthless and repetitive article of tricks and tips help the CCI members in any way and I don't understand how can the others say and keep on saying pages after pages of "Thanks sir,It is really very good", "thanks for sharing sir,you are great"? By saying so,are we not fanning the pride of the person?
CCI is a great platform to network but isn't it used in the wrong way....
Grow Up guys before it's gets intolerable here. Let's resolve to revive CCI.
I will be back after exams for sure and do my bit....will you?
