Due to popular long-running demand and dissatisfaction with the speed of our moderation, we have mixed and opened things up a little as an experiment.
Many thanks to @AshReh, @TheLord, @(Tier-1 NLU), @TroubledLawyer and @waqeel (in alphabetical order), for volunteering in this recent threadfor the (hopefully not) thankless and tough task of mainting a semblance of decorum on LI 🎉
And if others are interested in volunteering, please let us know in this thread (after having signed up anonymously with your username) - we will likely be shuffling the numbers of moderators around in the coming weeks to find a team that gels well. In the meantime, due to the moderation system, posts will likely get published faster but may sometimes also get unpublished or also get locked for a while.
Good luck, god speed and ❤️! Please let us know how it goes 🧿
1. though everyone please try to tone it down and de-escalate a little, as much fun as it is to bash each others' law schools :) Criticism is fine, but please don't go overboard and keep harping on the same points, like NLU Delhi fudging figures in NIRF, or NUJS + Mamata = evil, or XNLU being awful, or whatever. Please stick to factual criticism, rather than just opinions, if possible.
2. Genuine request: please tone down politics talk in general. The vast majority of readers and commenters will ultimately not benefit or enjoy if LI turns into an SJW crusader platform, or full of incessant Modi or Raga bashing, or everyone's favourite unwoke WhatsApp uncle foaming at the mouth and railing against the evil Wokes being the end of modern civilisation. There are enough platforms for all this left vs right culture war nonsense and fake news, so if this is important to you, please seek those out rather than LI - there should be plenty of other interesting things for educated lawyers to talk about.
Hi Kian! Thanks for adding new moderators. Hopefully this increases the speed of moderation. I was curious if the selected users will still be able to contribute to a thread if they want to (under their own username) or will their duties solely revolve around moderating the threads?
Also, if there is a need for more moderators, would be happy to help! Have received quite some valuable feedbacks from this forum and would definitely love to give back to the community.
Thanks also to new mods for devoting time and making an effort to sustain this website for free exchange of information and inside secrets of the industry.

All of their accounts have been upgraded to moderator status, which means they will now have considerable power and responsibility in the LI microcosm, subject to ultimate moderation by our regular mod @LegallyIndia. We have posted some more details in the following thread, which should only be accessible to moderators): https://www.legallyindia.com/convos/topic/277177-welcome-new-mods-lets-talk-moderation-and-community

1. NLU criticisms. You cannot permit criticism of one NLU and censor/shadow-ban it in the case of another.
2. Politics: Both woke and non-woke views should be given the same treatment.
