Can there be some sorta rule on not bringing in another celeb into a topic that has nothing to do with them because it's becoming pretty damn annoying now, both directly and indirectly.

These rules should have implemented a long time ago, before things started to go out of control.

Still, thanks for the post. I hope people are a bit more courteous towards fellow members!

It can get frustrating and is tempting to fight back but try not to, if you see a member personally attacking other members just report them and someone one the Dev Team will deal with it.

I do a lot of reporting; sometimes it helps and at others, nothing happens.

For example: I reported a post in the topic "The Kite Runner" (I still remembered this one but there are others), but nothing has been done still.

https://www.indiaforums.com/forum/bollywood/1339129/the-kite-runner

The member "uk-dhakaboy" has used abusive language and still, gotten away with it. These are bad examples. I had taken a break after reporting the post, but when I got back, I remembered it after a few days and checked it again. Mods need to be more strict in this section, to be honest.

Sometimes, I remember which posts I reported and when nothing is done, it's a bit frustrating. I don't think most members like to break rules on their own, but if they are faced with snide remarks all the time, and the mods don't help them out, eventually they did leave the section altogether. Shame, really. Some of those members contributed to a lot of good and decent discussion.

I agree with this the most Aladin ji. I cant even remember how many times I have reported. I never PMed Swati or any1 bcoz I know they have a life too and I didnt even give a reply back in those reported topics bcoz I know it never helps wen someones already making snide remarks about a members fav. celeb or even otherwise and you reply back then well it just goes on and on. And then in the end, somehow it gets personal. ALWAYS Mostly. Been there done that, gone through alot of shit bcoz of that. And also, its never really sensible to argue bcoz of a celeb bcoz in the end the opinions remain the same. Which I am totally fine with till they are limited criticism but we all know how limited that has been in Bolly Section. Thats why it got really really frustating that we arent replying back and reporting, reporting, reporting but nothing happened. I really expected those topics that I reported to be checked but nothing happened...Which was even more not frustating but saddening And the end of it, I think most old members have left, isnt it? Sighs.

I know me and desigal had our share of arguments but everyones seen, we did speak here and there in the end in topics. And many others did too inspite of having heated arguments. But some member surpassed their limits like anything 😕

I aint banned, neither are you, neither are some other old members but even then how much do we come to BS now?! A year go then and a year later now....SO much has changed. I remember I was a new member and trying to fit in and I really wondered how I will bcoz there was an overflow of sensible debates with love and laughter, joys and I thought dude, I am new...and these ppl are sooo familyish. That was a year back and today, there is no family of those members left to fit in Miss that BS which I had seen wen I entered.

But well, those members came in and made a family after members older than them shifted to other sections bcoz they got different likes. Now those members who had come in left and I do see quite a few new ppl. Hope these ppl can have a great time and dont go through wat the old members did, specially a certain section and have a great long journey ahead on this forum.

Also, lol, I said this J/King to someone in a nice manner that "well, I know someone who can relax now....Swati" HEHE!!! :P But hope if any more posts are reported then they do get checked. Not only by Swati but all others part of Dev. Team of BS. So that we dont see a deserted BS in a few weeks.

Relaxx and just Enjoyyy everybody...specially the new members 😊

@ the bit about the reported posts, I do run through the reported posts, (the ones left behind for me to see anyway) and I'll deal with them if *I* find something wrong with them. Sometimes its like .. if we let one thing slide we have to let other things slide as well otherwise we'll be deemed unfair or whatever. But yeah I'll take a closer look at reported posts next time if thats what you guys want.

Yes, I understand your point.

But when a member is being called 'freako' by another, I think we all agree that is crossing the line. I had reported that post, yet, nothing was done. You can see it in the link. The post I reported was on the 2nd page, but the argument started at page one, when the member was telling others to "stop talking rubbish".

Similarly, so many members left because they were targetted (not once but repeatedly). Obviously, they felt they were let down in many ways. Most of them did not make the decision to get banned overnight. Angelz ji is right. It just seems like such a hostile place at times. If there was strict action taken (doesn't matter who it is), then maybe we wouldn't have gotten to this point, that's all I am saying. 😳😳

Please do that. It will be much appreciated. 😃

I don't know why we missed that topic out but I've PMed the member about it now ^

I see what you mean, and we do need to become more strict with topics as its horrible to see so many members decide to leave the forum. Sometimes what annoys us is that you post a warning but the topic regardless of it continues and you are forced to close the topic down. If the members decided to actually stop, it would only help to stop any ongoing arguments.

I think Sabrina's totally right on that, the unnessecary bringing in of other celebs into topics is just really not needed.

I agree with Sabrina ... Even i have seen members bringing in celebs who have nothing to do with the topic ... just to show that one certain celeb is WOW n the other one is blaah!

If this could stop i think it will be less arguments n fights :D
