AhAliyeh gerAmi salAm,

Today's talk at our ghahveh khooneh is about SCI in 1992. 
I think--and I believe most SCI "peesh kesvat"s would also agree with amoo 
on the following claim---that last year was the most eventful year of SCI 
since it's conception.
According to one of our ahAli, SCI had it's highest number of readers 
(above 20.000) in the first half of 1992; it also had its most dramatic drop
in terms of readership later last year, courtesy of the disgust generated by 
a handful of vulgar individuals whose obsession with "ezhAreh vojood"
had overwhelmed their logic, ideology, and decency. 
The following is amoo's review of the events, celebrities, quotes, (C)'s, 
and finally, my own deeds during 1992.

Naghdi bar SCI and it's ahAli 

Episode 1: Bel-besho AbAd
*************************

If there is such a thing as state of absolute democracy, SCI would be the 
one. It could also be called the state of absolute anarchy[(C) amoo, 92], so 
in ghahveh khooneh dialect it would be called "bel-besho AbAd"! 
I such an atmosphere of freedom every once in a while some new ahAli show up 
who start contributing full time enthusiastically and put their heart and 
mind into getting involved. Then the process usually slows down due to the 
warmth of the flames of our resident "kheet" experts. At this point the new 
ahAli are put in "kooreh AzmAyesh"; they're either "poost koloft" enough to 
take the "kheet" and not get upset, or are easyto "tahreek" in which case we 
witness the outbreak of a newcivil-war thread! Not that amoo is "bad been" 
or anything but there are very few contributors who became SCI citizens in 
92 and maintained their status successfully. 

I start by talking about amoo so that I'll have tried the "soozan' on myself 
before sticking ahAli with my "javAl dooz". 
I remember lurking for some time before becoming decisive enough to start 
writing.  At the time amoo was experiencing some technical difficulties so 
his very first article for SCI was sent to a celebrity in hope of getting 
posted. Well, the celebrity himself was experiencing a bad day at work so he 
threw the article right back at amoo's face writing: "amoojoon boro peyeh 
kAret, I don't have time for this nonsense". So I contacted another SCI 
celebrity who has traditionally been kind to anonymous posters. This time 
everything went smoothly. But all this didn't happen until March so let's go 
back to the first couple of months of that year; 

The most striking line of the month of January was written by mash CherAgh 
Ali who said "maybe we should call SCI social.hostile.Iranian!". I think it 
was the frustration resulted from witnessing constant verbal fights on SCI 
that made MCA make that comment; but little did he know that real "fahAshi"s 
were yet to come. Also at this time Alireza (pAyandeh bAd Iran) was an 
active contributor whose patriotism was a bit too intense for some other 
ahAli. Among other celebrities and ahAli the one-paragraph-only style of 
AfghAhi comes to mind. His harsh words against other ethnicities and 
cultures caused him much flame and perhaps eventually led to his 
departure from SCI. 
Among others, amoo's self-appointed foster dad, MahyAr, was an active 
writer. His proposals for a photo contest did not receive as much response 
as expected perhaps because our ahAli were too busy watching the exchange 
between Seyyed and ShAhrokh to pay attention to anything else! I will 
dedicate most of my next episode to ShAhrokh and Seyyedbut for now there are 
some others whose work must be remembered.

I think we never got enough of Ala's stories. His "memories of Iran-Iraq 
war" were among the highlights of the February of 92. His disappearance from 
SCI in March coincided with amoo's first article which in turn made some 
ahAli think that amoo and Ala were the same! 
I think Naghmeh's first post should be mentioned here. She wrote: "...I'm 
extremely amused at the *artistic* way you go about insulting each other..". 
I think she changed her mind later that year after receiving too much *art* 
from satanic characters! 

TO BE CONTINUED....
