Banner Contest ON HOLD. DT NT Pg6 - Page 3

Thank you for hosting this but in the interest of making sure we don’t have another discussion in 3 months time about a new banner: perhaps hold off on insisting the Tripathi’s be a part of the banner?

The banner makers will be investing a lot of time to make these creations and when we clearly as viewers have been shown from various actors that they are not going to be a part of the show now: why should they be a part of the banner?

Especially with the new promo showing Imlie leaving her past behind and moving forward with her new balamawa?

I urge you to please look at this from a wholistic perspective, rules are rules yes but there should be some rationality when we do things.

I understand your views …so I ask …do you feel we wait for another three months n see who all remain in the show, who all quit n who all join in fresh and then hold the BC ?

There are people who have certainly left the show at present. That is, THEY ARE NO LONGER RELEVANT TO THE SHOW. Don't see their relavancy in the banner that is supposed to be representative of the next three months? Since they won't be there anyway?

As Keynes would say : In the long run, we all will be dead.

it doesn’t have to be a zero sum game: when we know characters are no longer a part of the show… why should they be in the banner?

If weeks and months from now new prominent characters come and occupy a large share of the story line, for sure in due course there may be critical mass and interest for a new banner.

It just seems counterproductive and frivolous to make new business cards and name plates for employees we KNOW are no longer a part of the show, which is the equivalent of what is being suggested here.

You’re working hard to host this, creative members of the fan base will work hard to make these, let’s just find some common ground here when we legitimately KNOW these actors are not in the show two episodes from now.

Yes we very much need to add Aditya character in he banner .

Aditya is present predominating the promo released today ...even as I prepare this thread ...

My suggestion :place your fav characters boldly in the banner .. if you dislike any character show him in a small corner of the banner .. let members choose which banner they want to have

We can have next BC after say another 3 months with fresh additions n deletions in the cast list .

I'm sorry but the promo is in no way indicating Aditya as predominant character anymore. It's flashback indicating erasing everything that is related to Tripati's until now. Tabula Rasa if I can say.

If the rule is to include the past 3 months even though the show will be completely different, well, let's play a tribute to the old characters! Rules are applicable when all the parameters remain the same, but when that itself changes, shouldn't it be reconsidered?

We live in very interesting times, seems like this whole forum runs on dictatorship. I've yet to see another forum that's run like this one where even creativity is banned and locked.

We are the customers who are making this forum revenue and yet we are not allowed to even breathe in our own space.

Those characters have had their faces on this forum for a whole year plus, so why do we have to pay more homage to them when they have no impact on the storyline anymore, they've barely even been getting more than one (1) minute of screen space per episode in the last few weeks and will be getting zero screen space in the coming episodes yet somehow they're integral to the show. Interesting.

Anyways, you're not giving us a choice at all despite the sound arguments the active members have made.

The characters are going to be irrelevant even before the banner goes up . Why would we want non-existent people on the banner ? AKT and Tripathi's will be done and dusted part of show . More like ssn 1 ssn2. We never did add two diff SSN people why would we want it now. I would surely not want to see non existing people cluttering the space over the banner I'm going to see whenever I open this forum. This comes from a member who actively participates in the forum. If our voice is not heard what is the point of contest which is going to run under rigid opinions

Could not have said it better, Ahlaam!!

I will also echo Reeha

"You’re working hard to host this, creative members of the fan base will work hard to make these, let’s just find some common ground here when we legitimately KNOW these actors are not in the show two episodes from now."

Relevant people in, irrelevant people out.

Relevant: Imlie's parents, Rathores, Sundar - optional (because looks like there is a Arpita Sundar angle)

Irrelevant: Tripathis, Badi Maa, Gudiya

Now if a banner maker chooses to include some Tripathis and is voted best, fair enough. But to make it mandatory to include characters that are leaving the show is ridiculous.

After reading through some of the responses here I just wanted to say.

I am still here for the sake of my readers who would not know where to follow me if I migrated my stories. Have toyed with leaving for a long time. This may just be my last straw!

Not considering fans on this forum who are making sound arguments and instead low-key threatening us with scrapping the banner contest altogether is taking this to another level.

If more characters leave or important people join then sure hold another contest 3months, 6 months, 12 months from now. No one will stop you. But at this point, keeping redundant characters who are clearly leaving the show just because, makes 0 sense.

Okay! I do have a doubt regarding the important characters. It's laughable that how Sundar is included in the important characters instead of Malini or Anu! I mean, I do understand that Sundar could be the future love interest of Arpita, but definitely future love interest cannot be more significant than present day antagonist right?? Without Malini, neither AdiLie nor AryLie have an significant antagonist, so isn't she more important? And Malini's return is also indicated, so doesn't she get to have a place in the banner?

And it's obvious T-Fam is no more significant to the story, so isn't is better to make them optional rather than compulsory?

Would like toTag some talented creators i have known
