Hi people,
It's my last day in Amsterdam. I just went for a walk in the center of the city. Fortunately it wasn't too cold. Got lots of pictures for you which I hope to upload before I leave for France Sunday by train. I've smoked most of a "Super Polm" joint from Smokey's Coffeeshop and I'm finishing the rest here in my hotel room. I have a nie buzz going and I'm in the mood to talk. I'll be around for a few hours. So if you have any questions about anything on this site or... now's a good time to ask. I may even say things I wouldn't have under this cloud of smoke :o)

Separation
by Jahanshah Javid on Sat Dec 22, 2007 05:57 PM PSTHi Zari,
I have been separated from my wife for a year now. It will become permanent sometime this year.
This is stupid, there is no "censorship"
by Anonymous8 (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 04:28 PM PSTsome dear hamvatans have truely forgotton what real censhorship is like.
As someone who has had 1 comment removed, I can tell you this is bullshit. Don't listen to these people who are obviously upset only because their own comment was removed. I cussed out one person and I was removed, which I think is fair in retrospect.
This site has the most liberal comment policy I have ever seen. Maybe it should be written down for people to see, but it's definitly not suffering from too many deletions. There are still plenty of comments that are just complete wastes of time, that are not deleted. These are lowering the value of this site, but who am I to argue wiht the master?
Situation
by Zari (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 04:06 PM PSTI heard in one of your interviews you were going through a seperation. What's your situation now ;-) ?Do you blame "Iranian.com", at least partially, for that?
New car?
by Saeed Kafili (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 04:01 PM PSTI remember your late car (R.I.P.). Did you ever buy a new one? What is it?
With all the drama, no wonder.........:o)
by Sasha on Sat Dec 22, 2007 02:41 PM PSTNo wonder JJ is getting as high as a kite. :o) Things are actually calming down with the new format. Every new system has bugs that need working out.

Regardless of whether they're in Amsterdam or not! and suprisingly....I know of guys who smoke alaf with their uncles!!! Does this come as shocking to anybody else?

Password
by souri from Montreal (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 09:44 AM PSTHi JJ, I'm happy you are now about to visit France. Paris is my second
city after Tehran. Have a very good time.
Just wanna ask if there's a way to change our original password which you gave us at the time of registration?
It is in my email inbox and I can't go check it every time I want to edit something here....and it is so complicated password that I can't remember it easily, getting too old for that !!!
Leaving Comments - Everybody is "Right" here
by Akbar - (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 09:30 AM PSTJJ, the way things are as far as leaving Comments on your Website is very similar to when the "Insanes" take over the "Assylum".
+
People using "Multiple" names, not throughout the site, but on the "Same" article.
+
AS far as your censors, well I remember you mentioning that they have "Very Little" background in Journalism. In such a situation you need to give them "Specific" Guidelines for "Consistency".
+
I mean no "Vulgarity" (4-letter words, etc,), or gratuitous "Personal Attacks" or "Threats" should be allowed.
+
I believe that your "Liberal" Policy of leaving comments has essentially led to "Chaos". It's 'Obvious". Please "Modify" it. Tks :)
Hmm!
by Milan (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 09:19 AM PSTJJ,
I'm sure you don't give a crap about what people think, which is what I like about you. But after all these years of knowing you(through this site of course), I never thought of you as a druggy, until now. I suppose that's part of being a Northern California liberal.
Have "fun."
my rich Uncle Abu, bless his soul
by David ET on Sat Dec 22, 2007 09:02 AM PSTregistered users with own ID (signing up with email address but undisclosed) is the solution to reduce unwanted posts .
It is a preventive measure of a decease than trying to cure it afterwards. but that I have explained in detail before ... and jj is not high anymore , so I lost my chance to tell him again while hewas more open to the idea ;-)
By the way, jj I have come across a 10 million dollars inheritance from uncle Abu in Africa , and I trust to deposit it through you. What is your online banking ID and password ?
it has been getting a little out of hand...
by PS (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 08:52 AM PSTHi JJ:
i just wanted to say what you do is awesome, this site is amazing. the comments have been getting a little out of hand, and nasty, oh and fresh too... i know you try your best, and that's all we could ask of you.
it is so appreciated, you are quirky, knowledgable and fun - and thank you so very much for that! keep the pic's coming!
Dirty Dozen
by Jahanshah Javid on Sat Dec 22, 2007 08:15 AM PSTI think by now there are about a dozen guard dogs loose on this site. Some are obviously less tolerant than others. But your complaints will make a difference and if any of them get of hand I will chain them for a few days :o)

Balance
by Jahanshah Javid on Sat Dec 22, 2007 07:56 AM PSTFirst every one screams and yells that there's no moderation. Now it's too much moderation? Unfair deletions? I will make a note of it and keep an open eye. We will get to some sort of balance. We're are learning.
Censorship. / JJ/Your royal highness...
by Rosie T.. (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 07:44 AM PSTPlease see my comments I just posted on JJ's last photo essay from Belgium regarding censorship. Your Royal Highness, a little bit of "kif" is NOT the problem but there IS a MAJOR problem....but it isn't JJ who's doing the unfair deletions, it's one of the moderators. I'm glad it finally happened to me in a very big and offensive way because now I understand why you and your "faction" were accusing me of this...but it NEVER was me...I NEVER flag posts that are not EXTREMELY offenisve and I NEVER flag for ideology...and JJ doesn't delete unfairly either...but someone is...someone is

Have fun JJ. Come home soon.

Censoring comments
by Jahanshah Javid on Sat Dec 22, 2007 06:34 AM PSTHi Asghar,
The object is not censorship. You should know that's the last thing me or the moderators want to do. We just want to preserve a MINIMUM of "civility" for lack of a better word. Too much cursing and personal attacks will keep people away. If you are trying to make a point nobody would or should remove your comment. If they do, you just emal me at jj@iranian.com va pedar e oon editor o dar miaaram!
JJ, No Wonder You are Censoring iranian.com comments!
by Princess Asghar (not verified) on Sat Dec 22, 2007 06:29 AM PSTSomeone had alluded that you were on some sort of ..... and high. He was saying that is the reason for you or your moderators censoring iranian.com comments and posts. Now we have it out of the horse's mouth. A confirmation!
Have a good time JJ.
