Some devotees are really doing some bad things here.

Atmananda Dasa - June 5, 2010 11:41 pm

yeah... hmmm. and when i google "harmonist" the harmonist.us site comes up with the warning: this site may harm your computer?

That's pretty weird.

It has happened before. It was because someone, presumably a tech savvy devotee, hacked the site and put in bad code. It can't actually do anything to you as far as I understand. I have notified Gauravani, who fixed it last time. If it is a devotee, its certainly a real classy one.

I just sent letter about it to Syamgopal and Vrindaranya. I cannot open the wesite... I will try to use firefox maybe it will work...

Classy one? This devotee is wanting to sabotage your efforts of getting a good website, but you have taken this in stride :Cow:

Why doesn't this classy devotee hack the pada and lycos website and do some good work?

Atmananda Dasa - June 6, 2010 3:20 pm

It seems like it is fixed now because I'm not getting blocked anymore.

Thanks to whoever fixed it :Cow:

With me works very well. With safari and firefox.

Nitaisundara Das - June 6, 2010 4:09 pm

Actually it seems it was not a devotee. Anyway, Gauravani fixed it.

The problem of fake IDs in TV members has reemerged. Why is that happening? Somebody hacking into TV?

I'm all for freedom of speech and what not, but some of the comments on the Crows nest of misconception article on harmonist appear to be suggestive of physical violence, see one recently authored by KB which says something about a frontal assault and a previous comment which said something about suicide bombers. Maybe its just me but I feel that allowing such comments reflects poorly on the harmonist site. I know that people need a place to talk about there hurt feelings and stuff, but I think that this is going too far. Whatever decision the editors come to I have full respect for that and I won't be going any further with argument about it. I really appreciate the harmonist site and all the hard work that has gone into making it happen. With all respect and appreciation, Atmananda

I concur with you. I find the recent discussion distasteful and one which shows harmonist in bad light. We can remove most of the personal war between bhakikananda and me. That will help.

Atmananda Dasa - June 8, 2010 9:12 pm

Actually I regret getting drawn into a discussion which was clearly off topic from the article. Live and learn. :Cow:

thanks for fixing it!! my system caught a virus from the site and it went through my address book, sending out emails to everyone!! thanks again!!!

Nitaisundara Das - June 24, 2010 3:13 am

Oh no! Thats the first I heard of that. I hope it won't happen again.

 

I am trying to resist the temptation to make this into a plug a for Macs...
