Indipolicing, their rights and ours.
Given the fate of the earlier thread started by Animesh, I don't think open discussion is required on this topic. So locking it. Rio - Request you to please reach out to Renie.
Well Rio - This was exactly what our good Captain was trying to do - Define what IndiPolice should be policing and what not. But people seemed strongly against the idea. So it had to be abandoned.
When responsibilities are fluid and not clearly defined, people with powers will take discretionary calls and do what he/she thinks is right.
Well Rio - The reason they kept people and not automated is so that people can use discretion. Discussions on the lines of what Animesh was proposing might have helped identify what is acceptable and what is not through mutual discussions. But his thread was rubished away. So given that, I think we have 3 options
1. Let current set of Indipolice act as they think best
2. Ask Renie for specific guidelines on IndiPolice activity
3. Appeal to Renie on specific case where you think what was done was not right.
