Apparently they have to 'distinguish between posts' and not venture into anyone else. Wah! kya logic hai.</font>

<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">Not sure what kind of a cesspool you are referringto but a post is a post is a post. We are interested in the post for the content and not because we want to 'come face to face with you because we are frustrated'. We decide which post to get involved in and which users we would like to reply to. To quoteagain, we don't find any luxury in 'coming face to face with you' and maybe it would be a good idea to end the narcissism. You are not as important as you think.</font>

I agree with your response cdlove n angel

@avni
My response is to you n not to any generalised group I might think you belong
My reponse is because I agree or disagree with that post that you made

If I start to generalise what you said as being from a group of supporters , bashers , lovers of ipk1 , fans of previous actress ..that's when the issue starts... the show might be liked by a few , disliked by a few for various reasons every one has the right to put it here as a post , and every other person has the right to disagree ... ...if people go into understanding the ulterior motive of the people posting on an entertainment forum for making a certain Kind of post honestly I find it very funny
If you starts to decide how they should be treated because you think they belong to a certain group it's not even funny then
Forum is entertainment ... all these posts are to entertain oneself ..there is no other objective or motive behind it lol except if you are Gul or May be Ekta ... then I agree there could be motive

Bottom line forum is not for fans alone , it's for people who want to talk about
The show ... and people talk about the show because they like talking about it ... there is no conspiracy theory going on here with any 'group'

Shat pratishat NO Bitiya! 😆

Again, if you pay attention, we Barun fans mostly stay out of the negative posts, of course some people (like me!) lose control more often than not, but it gets hard to deal with so much negativity after a point. This forum is almost completely hijacked by 2-3 groups and they keep responding to each other over and over again just to keep their thread relevant and to rile some of us fans up.</font>

<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3" color="#660099">Hence the frustration.</font>

<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3" color="#660099">But surely you can see all this for yourself?😲</font>

I thought India forums were meant for discussions, not for being hijacked by any group of members with an ulterior motive! 😲 So are these members posting & replying to each other to keep their posts relevant with the purpose of riling up fans? 😲 😕 That's a revelation !!!!
And then there are some posts which are open invites to Bashers to enjoy the luxury of coming face to face with fans! 😲 Looks like before posting everyone first needs to categorize themselves where they belong and then choose the appropriate posts to comment on!

IF should change rules!

Seriously? Fans think so much of themselves!!! Itna importance khudko, you think that others want the luxury of coming face to face with you? 😲

Short answer! No. I would maybe have watched the first week and then stopped! I only watched the show coz Barun was in it! Coz I liked him a lot in Season 1.


But I am not a blind fan, so I will say the story and the treatment of the characters and also the overall execution leaves much to be desired. I am still watching to see if it improves. For old time's sake! The biggest problem is how superficial and shallow the story is! Unless they correct that, this show won't improve! Hard facts!

Had it not been for Barun, I wouldn't even know that a show as this exists. Like I said it time and again, I watched IPK1 coz of Barun.I watched Tanhaaiyaan coz of Barun and I am watching IPK3 coz of Barun.

@Angles11:

Word To everything you said. Yes some of us expected better from this combo of Gul-Barun. But we didn't get it! Expressing dissapointed or being critical for valid reasons doesn't make one a hater!

My points have always been on the dissapointing and shallow story, gimmicky presentation bad writing and directing. The acting only reflects the rest of the work. But I see anyone who gives honest opinions are called bashes or bashes disguised as critics! I think it's very presumptuous for other people to decide why someone is giving an honest opinion. I am a fan but not a blind fan and cannot blindly love something that just isn't cutting it! Those who can are welcome to. Never tried to stop them. Hope they can extend the same courtesy to some of us who are simply telling it like it is!

As soon as I know the criterias to be eligible to get Incorporated in any group, I'mma let you know. Add in the main post or make a new post out of it may be!

I would have still watched it for Gul. Yes. I gave QH and humsafars a try only for Gul, though I didn't stay with it till end since both the stories stopped making any sense beyond a point. I watch IB because its is from Gul and has some awesome performers.

I am not the blind fan of Barun to not see the flaws but its too early for me to give up on the show because of these flaws which ae clearly being worked upon. We cant deny that the issues are being addressed.

In continuation, after yesterday's precap for the first time I realised how relevant you topic was. My answer then was based on the improvisation the show was witnessing last week. This week I have a different mindset altogether. It is as inconsistent as characterisation of chandni.

My ans is a big NOOO for every quest u asked...

After Season1 i haven't watched any serial...to tell u d truth i m not a TV serial person but S1 happened 2 me accidentally n i m still crazy 4 leading pair of it. i like Shivani but i m crazy 4 Barun...So watching it only 4 Barun...wouldn't have bothered of it if Barun was not part of d show... But now i m loosing my interest ...even skipping episodes...I don't think even Barun can make me glue to d TV after watching it for a month in hope that it will get better n watchable...DISAPPOINTED...NOW I M NOT WAITING N EAGER 4 MY CLOCK TO TURN IN 8o' CLOCK soon like IPKKND1's time...
