Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
Congratulations to the BR team and BR administrators. I hhave been visiting BR From the time i was in my intermediate but i was not able to register as at that time i had email id which belong to Yahoo or rediff. After coming to US i have been able to register and i Spend Atleast 4 or 5 hours a day in BR. i really appreciate the work The BR Team has put in this site. Infact this Site has become a major source of information on Indian defence forces and i have seen many foreign web sites quoting BR as a source. BR is also increasing awareness and knowledge among people about Indian armed forces, and thier strength. It is also acting as a mojor source of Info on Indian economy and India. It is bringing so many bright people having knowledge in so many diverse fields and is enabling sharing of Data and ideas between Them. Congrats once again
Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
Happy B'day to us... X6!Yes,it's a great day for everyone associated with BR.Looking back,BR has indeed come a long way.Perhaps the first true public view of BR's "spreading wings" was Shiv's excellent CD on Aero-India and the contribution of many others with stunning photos at various times of current events/weaponry on the Forum.The webpages designed for various units of the armed forces has been another feather in BR's cap.I was just going through the latest issue of Vayu and enjoying a very fine article on an IAF veteran pilot only to see that it was a BR contributor who had written it!
One must also thank the various branches of the defence services who have at various times been more than helpful in helping BR grow and being host to our motley band of "Brites"at some of our get-togethers.If not for these gallant men and women of the armed forces-who continually need the unstinted support of the country,we could be in a disastrous state...just look at what is happening in our neighbourhood and abroad and thank our lucky stars that we have such dedicated and devoted fighting forces to protect us from the enemy at large.
At this time I must yet again come back to my pet grouse..that we have to take one final step into the real world of journalism in order to disseminate our ideas and philosophy to a wider audience.That is we must eventually also produce a publication,printed in India,perhaps a quarterly on the lines of the Monitor.There is room in Indian publishing space for a good magazine on dfence and foreign affairs that covers all the three branches of the services.A printed version of a magazine lasts far longer than bytes in cyberspace and reaches a wider audience.BR has great allround talent and we also have several veterans,wellwishers of BR who have served the country with distinction,who can contribute as well as advise us.When we do achieve this goal,we can then say that we have truly arrived.

Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
1)I have been on BR one way or the other for the past 5 yrs. Whenever i Come across something "new" then its become a kid of habit/duty to share it on BRF.
Dont know how to put it across-but the greatest thing about BRF is that many here share a collective pride in our nation.
If we share the knowledge/information we have it keeps "flowing" and has the ability to perhaps answer questions each one of us or felt.And there are people ofall hues on BRF from the ORBAT experts to those who could tell the latest hairstyle of pakjabis.
And then there are the recent additions of "been there and done that" gentlemen,whose posts are always a treat to read.
2)No but its the first thing I check anyhow.
3)Definitely!
4)Well,what a surprise!There are a few judging from the responses.
And I thought that "We be bad"![Smile :)](./images/smilies/smile.gif)

1) This was perhaps my second/third website I ever visited when I first went online 6yrs ago. Been hooked evr since.Originally posted by Rakesh Koshy:
BR Survey
I just want to get some ‘fun info’ on our members, so please answer the following questions:
1) What is it about Bharat Rakshak (and the forum) that makes you want to keep coming back every day (or in may case, every few minutes when I hit the F5 button)? Bonus points (with possible admin appointments) for BRF members who mention my nameOr is this a complete testorone-driven forum?[/QB]
2) and 3) Well! Less said the better. I finally had to buy a second computer and get wireless access for my DSL. Now I keep BR as my home page on my laptop as my wife usurped my other computer. It's better now that we both have independent internet access.
4) No idea.
Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
1) What is it about Bharat Rakshak (and the forum) that makes you want to keep coming back...
Addiction to India, probably terminal. Plus the generally positive outlook, confirmed by events on the ground over the past 6 years. In the beginning, I was just glad to find someplace where other people shared my interest in Indian strategic environment. And of course, there's the wide variety of postors, most of whom I've never seen, but would gladly invite home any time.
2) Is BR currently set as your default home page? If not, may I ask why?
Nope. Dunno why. But it's the first, and often the only page, that I visit. Call of duty as admin and all that.
3) Is BR causing issues with the spouse at home? If so, PARTY ON!!!!
Various ruses and diversionary tactics have been employed to disguise the actual amount of time spent on BR. Otherwise there would be hell to pay. OTOH, maybe I'm fooling myself and spouse is quietly pleased that I'm spending time harmlessly in front of a defence website and not chasing skirt
4) Are there any gals in BRF? Or is this a complete testorone-driven forum?
Yeah, where are all the girls? What can we do to get them more interested in defending India, through BR of course? Think boys think. So far, what, there are four/five participating - out of 90,000 unique visitors? Pathetic.

Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
Congratulations to all of you, Rakesh, Shiv, LNS, Jagan, Rupak, JEM, Phillip, Ramana, and many others. I have been a member since March 1998, visiting everyday. After spending one and a half hours reading the new posts, I am too tired to post. Also, many threads are too technical; canards, avionics, etc.

nah. but it is a direct link from my toolbar.

BR is the spouse!

Does it matter? Though, I must say that my female desi friends are much more nationalistic than my male friends.

Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
Congratulations!. A well deserved success!.
Credit to all the admins and frequently visiting members for their valuable contribution, which adds to the knowledge and information where there was none forthcoming. That is one single reason why we try and log on to BR forum several times in a day, to overcome the lack of information on Indian security forces.
Things have changed for the better, with the creation of BR.
Kudos, and best wishes for many more Birthdays to come.

Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
First of all, congrats everyone..
1). I've been a lurker for about 4 years now, posted a few times but somehow my login name was disabled so kept reading every single day but didn't post. Nowadays, been spending about 3 hours a day here. What keeps bringing me back here..mmm.. has to be the contents, best news and analysis.. and ofcourse the knowledge & intelligence of contributors.
2). No, its not default page on my browser because of company policy but its the second site I visit everyday after checking the headlines on rediff.
3). No spouse yet, but it is causing some heartburn in my friends coz everytime they see me, I'm on BR.
4). I've seen a few ladies here but not many. I tried to educate some of the girls I know about BRF and a few visit it time to time now. Strangely, most of girls think of Bharat-Rakshak as some sort of RSS/VHP related site
I guess, lotsa awareness still needs to be brought in. My high point was, when a writer friend (with whom I fight a lot) sent me the article written by Arindam Bannerjee by mail and asked me to read things like that instead of Hindu propaganda sites
.. it was fun pointing out the BRF url to her.. Also, another high point was mentioning BR to a friend and finding out he's Jagan's colleague and knowing the GD is a former HSS-employee.. just like me
*great minds converging at same place

Way To Go BRF
Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
The best damn forum on the net !! It's great to find a place where there are so many like-minded folks with a deep interest in India's armed forces and the betterment of our country. Each year it gets better and better. Oftentimes we hash the same topic every few weeks/mths but new members bring new insights (Siachen thread by pavananir for e.g) - and I can only say wow. jrjrao's Paki bashing thread is just simply the icing on the cake
This kind of interaction is incredibly addictive because I spent my first 18 yrs in India looking desperately for fellow enthusiasts and not finding anybody. I log in at work and discreetly check it out when the boss ain't around
The wife used to mind alot at first (a few yrs ago) - but she got reconciled to it when she met the other guys and gal at BR meetings. She even asks me when we're gonna hold the next BR meet ! BR is not my homepage - it's Yahoo ! Kudos to admins for enhancing the site and enforcing rules. Kudos also to the BR community for contributing articles, bringing up forum topics and (in the old days) contributing monies to keep the forum going. It can only get better.

Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
1) I have been reading BR since the summer of '97 and still remember mentioning it to other Indian friends. That's a very long time and am quite embarassed to admit that i have so far posted only a handful. Too much to read and catch up with and no spare time
3) Spouse was introduced to BR and i think is a bigger addict than me.
4) see above

You are not a lurker, you are a Peeping Tom, but a nice one at that. I hope you are liking what you are seeing! It's only six years old. Its getting better all the time as the Beatles said.
Will you be sending the BRF a valentine, birthday's greeting and bottle of wine?
Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
BR has been oxygen for me since crossing the black water many moons ago and is the place I go to several times a day to check the 'news'. Anything not on BR is not worth wasting time on!
I am extremely grateful to the many postors who have deepened my love of India--something I never thought possible--and for broadening my knowledge on so many diverse areas.
Special respect and thanks are reserved for the amazing cast of Admins who have created and maintain this fantastic place and infuse it with their rich talents, dedication and hard work. Thank you and hearty congratulations! I look forward to the next decade on BR with great eagerness.

Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
As one of the earliest members I have seen BR grow from the "stacked hyperlink forum". The admins have done a great job in keeping the quality and also eliminating noise.
I used to post so often 5.5/6 yrs ago when we just had a handful of members participating. I spend at least a couple of hours a day and enjoy the forum thoroughly. We have a lot of great new participants to add to the old hands like (JeM, Shiv, Ramana, Spin Rao and hilarious NETA of N^3).
Great job guys ! Congratulations.

Re: Bharat Rakshak Celebrates Six Years!
Happy Birthday, BR
Have been a long time (more than 5 years) and regular lurker but very infrequent postor . (My earlier avatar – G for Gellmann – this was around the era of Faheem - remained mostly in the lurking mode too.).
Now for the survey
1. Excellent source of news and other information (IDRF thread, for example was excellent source of reference material). And just reading some postors is just addictive.
2. No. Because I can reach it with less than 2 mouse clicks.
3. Understanding cause and effects is interesting but the relationship is not always that simple.
