We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.

Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
1. Nobody other than someone who is studying in a particular law school is aware of the pluses and minuses of the place, nor any clear knowledge about how its faculty are. Not even the specifics about the placement scene anymore, since most law schools don't release any official stats. At the most, they can have a general, vague idea. Therefore, people may talk about the good points of their own universities when someone asks for info. Not about how it is better than anyplace else, because they do not, simple. Most of the time, the posts are seeking info. So provide them with that, not random opinion. Talk about moots won, jobs secured, research project deets that are not readily available, hostel scenes, but keep it to your own uni for God's sake. You are not an expert on others, not even you have 'supposedly' heard about them from your friends. Let those friends talk about their own place, I am sure people from every university visits this forum occasionally.
2. These X NLU v. Y NLU posts are inane. Of course, some of them are written by CLAT aspirants genuinely trying to reach a decision. In that case, they need facts, not your conjecture. Quit turning these into a measuring contest.
3. Equally stupid are these X job v. Y job superiority posts. They serve absolutely no purpose whatsoever other than for trolls stroking themselves. If adult readers cannot understand that one cannot and should not compare a law firm job with a judiciary post, or an UPSC job with a management post, then they have got no business studying law or any professional discipline.
4. The trolls who keep egging readers to quit law and do MBA should just leave this place and frequent MBA forums instead. This is Legally India, not Managing India, last we all checked.
5. There is hardly any deal that is discussed here anymore, legal industry developments, issues about which law students can present a united front, basically, anything useful. Such a colossal waste of potential!
6. Even the political matters that are discussed are about chest thumping between Bhakts, Libs and Wokes and other -ism followers, rather than measured and intelligent discussion. Half of those are baits and propaganda anyway.
Mods and Admin, please either sequester the posts based on category even if you want to allow the drivel mentioned above, so that the few remaining readers who wish to use this forum to help people genuinely needing it can do so, or else just admit that this is just a troll infested dungheap now.
