Introduction of Captcha

There has been heavy spamming by automatic bots from last few weeks. I was manually rejecting around 20-30 spam posts everyday. This was becoming a huge headache.

To control this, I introduced captcha which completely avoids the autobot spam successfully. The captcha is now fully active.

Lawsuit threat from Avenir Associates

Clarifying my role

I constantly keep getting emails from people requesting me to provide reviews on specific Goolties.

I would like to clarify here on my blog that I only run and manage this site. This site has been my brainchild and I take care of it. It was meant to be a forum for people to communicate their experiences.

I personally have worked only for one Goolti till now and hence cannot possibly have reviews for the multitude of companies for which I am regularly emailed.

If you want reviews on a specific company just post it out on Goolti ! :-)

"This company sucks. Avoid them" - Such posts will not be tolerated

I get more than 20-30 posts everyday for approval. Many of them have only one liners in them.

Something like "This company sucks. Please avoid them". This kind of a post does not give anybody any idea as to what is wrong with the consulting company. There is no detail regarding why the company is bad. Since its not of much help to the readers I'm not going to allow such posts to get through approval.

If you really want to help the readers please write a post with some amount of detail as to why a company is good or bad.

Half baked posts without a tinge of detail will not be allowed.

Lawsuit threat from Vision Systems

Yet another lawsuit threat, this time from Vision systems. I observed that the firm Herten, Burstein,Sheridan,Cevasco,Bottineli,Litt & Harz LLC is sending me a C&D for the third time. Last two times the notices were from some other companies. It seems that this law firm is not doing well since it has no other work than accepting clients who want to threaten people from free speech.

Silvertide software urging me to remove comments

Somebody from Silvertide software called me yesterday asking me to remove the comments for his company. Prospective candidates are inquiring with them about the comments posted on goolti.com . Will keep you guys posted if I hear further from him.

Lawsuit threat from S Cube Soft

Another one. Lawyers from S Cube Soft have threatened of a lawsuit raising concerns over -ve comments from goolti.com users. They mentioned in their letter that users are questioning the credibility of the company after reading the posts on Goolti.

All the comments have been removed.
