I'm closing this thread with the belief and hope that those who have a complaint will PM those people they hurt the most with this post explaining their stance and clearing the air. This thread and the reason behind this thread was to say that you feel that Purvi is bashed by people here and that she isn't given the same respect as, in your words, "the Famous Five". I'm only pointing this out because I feel that the main matter of this thread was deviated when these comments were made.
Firstly, no one here disrespects Purvi. Yes it's true that she may not get the same status as the five, but based on the threads you sent me, there are very few posts that actually disrespect her. I'm not saying that there aren't any such posts, but there are very few. Those very few have been handled before and therefore it was not necessary to bring them up again.
Secondly, as I mentioned before, bringing FC matters into another forum is not right. What happens in a FC should be reported in the FC forum if it's such a big issue. On top of that, going to the FC and being sarcastic about it only makes you as much involved.
Now Padma you mentioned that she's made fun of everywhere from cap threads to episode discussion threads. Over the past 3 months I have never seen any such posts, which makes this thread something of the past rather than something of the present.
Finally, everyone here has different ways of handling things. When there is a particularly bad episode or when someone's favourite officer is made into a laughingstock everyone handles it differently. Some people write a story to make up for the shortcomings. Some people discuss the shortcomings endlessly. And some people make jest of others in the show. Note the word "jest". It's never intended to hurt someone, but rather just someone's way of handling something particularly bad. If anyone has a problem with such posts, rather than opening such a thread why not just use the "report" button, send that person a PM, or ask them on the thread to edit their post. It saves everyone's emotions from being hurt and keeps the forum running smoothly and well with everyone involved.
Padma your idea was right, I just feel that the execution was incorrect. Instead of opening a thread to express your disbelief you may have wanted to PM those people who were involved in such matters first asking them to stop. If they didn't stop then you could have opened this thread.
Hopefully like we always do, we'll move over this thread and experience and learn something from it. If anyone has any issues with the way this was handled please do PM me. I would be more than willing to discuss this in private.
Regards,
Shreya
