The above reply has been reinstated. I don't deserve any more respect than our other members and Admins. However, it is high time we all started accepting Red signals.
.
There are some great, elaborate and useful Tips in this forum, and they do deserve a Green. If all Tips start receiving a Green, then it takes away value from the truly useful ones. It would be like giving everyone an Olympic Gold medal.
.

These days, as moderator, I am explaining my signals with a view to providing a guideline regarding writing Tips, and encouraging everyone to actively and freely rate Tips Red or Green. If members cannot handle constructive feedback and Red signals, then it would be better not to write the Tips, and save themselves some stress.
.
When giving Red signals, all are requested to give constructive feedback (if possible) so that the person can modify the Tip. Thereafter, you are free to change your Tip to a Green, if your requested info has been added.
.
If any of my previous queries is answered, then I shall consider changing my signal to a Green, not otherwise.
Thanks.

Great this is how a moderator should be. I moderate a few forums myself. Of late am seeing highhandedness by a few admins which is not good for the future of IRI.

--@Pravesh: Thanks for the details. You may create your own new Travel Tip with photo and other details.
@Wrik: It is not compulsory to explain your Reds. It is at your discretion. However, if the Tip can be improved (leading you to change your Red to a Green), the Tip poster will appreciate your constructive feedback.

Thanks for adding the additional info. And my signal now changed to Green.
This Tip stands as an example of how an ambiguous tip has suddenly become very useful to all. Travellers who read this tip, who were previously unaware of the samosa fact, will now be nursing their appetite, specifically looking forward to the halt at BSP.

people of Durg Bhilai are having greatest advantage of this train as Bhilai Power House is in GN quota while Durg is in RL quota..hence the twin city enjoys two quota together :)
