I request our members to attach the e-book of Wren & Martin Grammar Book. Our members can take guidance from the Grammar Book. Before posting anything, they can type it in MS Word, run a spell check, and then paste it as their contribution.

Dear sriramwarrier,
Thank you for the concerns raised. Besides the issues discussed, I believe that other factors have aggravated the situation as it is now. Globalization has brought the world close to the doorstep of many people. As technology advances and people get hooked on to the Internet, a number of problems arise.
There could be issues like people using this medium who have learned English as a second language. In view of this, they may not be able to express themselves very well. This reason notwithstanding, as people who are sharing knowledge, I want to endorse your suggestion that we need to make use of the spell check facility to help us communicate effectively.

Dear All,
Many moderators and members have raised this issue in earlier discussions as well. Along with the above-mentioned problem, I would like to add a few more issues that are very rampant on CiteHR. The issues are as follows:
Problem 1: Too many posts in the joke section, discussions, and games that are not relevant to HR issues. There is no harm in sharing a laugh, but at what price is the question we all need to analyze. Too many discussions of a casual nature consume precious cyberspace.
Solution: Complete deletion of posts in the humor forum every 15 days.
Problem 2: Posting information and content on forums that are not related to the posts, for example, posting job openings or consultant listings under the forum for Employee Recruitment Techniques, Process, and Sourcing.
Solution: Sending an alert to the author of the post with a click of a button by the moderator when they find posts of the above nature. The author should be given 48 hours to respond and take the necessary action; failing which, the post gets deleted after 48 hours.
Problem 3: Inability to identify the nature of the post at first glance. For example, subject - Performance Incentive, reading this subject, it is very difficult to understand if there is a solution, a suggestion, a new approach towards performance incentives, or if the person is seeking information on performance incentives. Such posts create confusion and problems for both new and old members.
Solution: Label posts based on their nature. The author, when posting on the forum, should be required to highlight the nature of the post. For example, if it falls under a query, or if it contains an attachment, or if the author is looking for help. If there is a goof-up again by the author, then there should be a facility wherein sending an alert to the author of the post with a click of a button by the moderator should be made possible. The author should be given 48 hours to respond and take the necessary action; failing which, the post gets deleted after 48 hours.

Hello Octavious,
(Cite Contribution) has said it right - you did hit the bull's eye. One thing that sets CiteHR apart from other portals is this very attitude, or rather way of looking at things/issues. The suggestions of solutions go along with the highlighting of a problem, especially from seniors like you.
I recollect a popular advertisement jingle: "It's different" :-). I do hope these suggested solutions are implemented ASAP. In a way, it will encourage new users to 'learn' the correct practices along the way.

Recently, I have seen one more thread on English Grammar. Beginners can make use of it.

Dear All,
I forgot to address one more issue.
Problem 4: Question of the same nature and, at times, the same questions are repeated continuously.
Solution: Every main section with sub-section should contain FAQs for old and new members to read. Any question other than the standard FAQs only needs to be answered. This way, repeated questions can be avoided, and the forum can be used for more serious and in-depth discussions.
For Example:
Main section: HR Stuff. Subsection: Labour and Employee Relations. In the above subsection, there should be standard FAQs that would provide basic and standard information to members about PF, ESIC, Maternity benefits, etc. These FAQs would contain standard information only, and they should be updated as per the latest queries answered.
