Did we find a solution?


We had 5-6 mids from the same member, you see the problem is not too difficult, ask Tanya and FOD for their phone number then tell their parents about their harkatein here


I don't think anyone else is a problem, they are just afraid of writing things from their real account but so far they are not extreme

Same pinch..

2 months back in July when I had some time I created an account on Reddit for some hot gossips but from next day itself I never checked that site too out of lazyness or say hectic schedule. Now I totally forgot what is my account username theresmiley36.. Even in BWF It's been 2 months i only check one or two threads so I have no clue what has been happening in remaining 99% of the threads. Especially these days I check only title of 2-3 threads and without even checking main post I jump to comment in those threads and I don't even care to see whether my comment would be relevant to the main postsmiley36.I became that lazysmiley36


BTW your comment is too short so I ended up reading your comment today... I have not read many comments here.

On a funny note, by the time I started reading this thread yesterday night, many comments from New ids showed as "Removed", so I feel I missed some masala here too unfortunatelysmiley36.


Sorry I made a very long comment eventhough knowing you are lazy to read long commentsmiley37

Y'all want an army of moderators to ensure you and your opinions are safe and secure on the internet for free? This is a free forum. Unless you will pay the salary for a team of moderators, go build your own forum or blog or whatever to cry.

There is no such thing as balance either. Opinion always tips one way or the other. That is life. If you want to be surrounded by people who share the opinion you have 24/7 - there are plenty of echo chambers on the internet you can insulate yourself in - but perhaps you may want to get your own personal bubble.

And a bunch of people disagreeing with and challenging your opinion is not bullying. Learn to have some strength and conviction in your opinions so you don't feel easily victimized when people challenge them.

All the drama going on over the past several weeks is because of a bunch of thin-skinned people who can't handle internet trolls without blowing up or feeling victimized. Logging off is always an option.

Let's talk if they're actually doxing you and threatening your safety and security in the real world.


More or less agreed. But there are some things which should not be tolerated such as attacking members' minor children. Celeb's children are considered off limits, so why not the plebes? And personal attacks should earn at least demerits.


Beyond that, if you're prepared to dish out, be prepared to take it and don't gaslight.

Oh, with so many topics about celebrity children - I did not know they were protected.

I agree with you. Any civilian who is not on the forum to speak for themselves should not be attacked. Stricter action should be taken against those who attack minors.

That being said, IF is not a safe place. Please do not divulge any information about your family and friends. While it will always be the fault of people who are up to no good, moderators may not always be available to take immediate action.

Honestly, be cautious outside IF, too. Sharenting on social media is just such an icky practice in my opinion. Things you may think are cute and funny to share may make your child uncomfortable as they grow up. Gosh, if my mom had made social posts about my potty training and every time I burped or vomited - I would have cut her out of my life. My mom is meant to shield me from the world, not expose me.

Oh, God. The mommy bloggers kill me. smiley36 I don't post pics of any of my family online, even on my FB page and such. I don't even like sharing pics in whatsapp family groups, but everyone does, so I'm forced to. Never, ever on IF. Not even vaguely suggestive details. There was one time I said something about my writing. Thankfully, a member told me she could easily find me even with those minimal details. Deleted the post.

@bold ....Nothing can be more disgusting than that....and also attacking the parents of the members....I have faced it....we can't even retaliate the same way.....as abusing parents should be off limit.....

@blue.....absolutely.....and people judging the fans need to also see how it all started.

Actually, I have an idea for an entry quiz for newbies


One section regarding behavior with other people (someone else make the questions)


Second section titled *Don't do dumb stuff.*


1. Posting your/your family's pics here Y/N

2. Sharing info which can lead to doxxing of people who are not here Y/N

3. Sharing identifying information on minors who might or might not be related to you Y/N

4. Sharing job info. Y/N


Feel free to add.
