Mixed Feelings...that's what I feel when every other month I get to know one more writer shifted RagNa stories to blog. Why do I care or have such feelings I often ask myself.

Since ages now, this forum has been our home; RagNa family home. It is RagNa stories which still let us all remain in touch with each other. This forum is the first thing which I still check every day; and then just like that one member breaks off in a way. Maybe not as a reader but definitely as a writer; they take a part of RagNa away from us. They take a chance to keep this forum alive away.

I know, non-FF topics are almost nil as far as forum activity is concerned. But at least our FFs incite some form of life in this forum. So it is sad to know every other writer decides to contribute a bit more in killing this forum and snatching away our home; one-stop guesthouse , whatever you like to call it.

But then I think what if one day this forum closes down? Its good then, that our RagNa stories will be alive even then on blogs; and we will have some places to still connect. Also, the feeling of independence which a blog brings, must also be special.

That's why mixed feelings but certainly no hard feelings. Because I myself already have a blog on Wordpress which has only two non-Ragna stories and one write-up to show as of now. I do intend to use it in future, but when I decide to be as much active in writing non-Ragna stories as well. I have some thoughts of writing stories which maybe having AshNa as lead faces; but the stories might be non-RagNa. So I myself maybe active on both/one platform(s); this forum and my blog.

That is why I am no one to judge or form a rigid opinion; because who knows one day I get inspired to shift my stories also on blog. Still could not help but make this post.

Sorry if I hurt anyone.

I agree with you Mohtarma ... Was also thinking the same at a Moment ... But I'm not a writer so I can't say much about it
But that's good that u made this post truly ... As I'm with u at 100 % in this ... I can understand that they might have some reasons
But as u said ... If it's going like this one day the forum will close
Stories has a big influence in the forum activity
I'm not against blogs but it can be a danger as well and I totally respect their choice as I'm a blog reader

Hey Charu thanks for raising this much needed topic. I know I don't possess that right as much as you since I am amongst those who posted about discontinuance of stories but still thought to share my views.
This is realy heart breaking to see our RagNa friends shifting their work to Blog. Guys please understand it is these stories that connect us all to RagNa till date. I know many of you might be connected on other social networks but the bond was built here I guess for many.

How can you think of breaking of this bond!!! I'm not stopping you from moving as I am no one to impose my thoughts on anyone but still think about it.

If any few instances have made you to come to this conclusion I request you all to please share those...may be we can sort that out, if it isn't personal.

Please as a fellow member its a humble request rethink about your decision.

And I am sorry if my views contradict with yours.

yes...that's true sometimes even I feel like that...
but then they might have their own personal reason and we can't force them to do something against their will but it also cannot be denied that blog is more better then forum in terms of freedom...

But I'm neutral to this things, I'm with both blog and forum...as I read stories from blog as we'll...
so it will be bad me to comment anything against it..

I am agree with your every words charu...blog may be free place for everyone but still when it comes to home I feel IF as my second home.
Funnily but I feel If is joint family where we share all our time. It is the place who connect us. Our heart connect each other. Early morning tea jarur miss ho jaye but If miss nahi hota.
Blog is free place...like a home of all freedom.
Everyone has their feelings. I am if member and blog member too. So no harsh feelings.
But still feel everyone thinks about this place too. Might be our presence increase forum activity.

Thank you girls
