Just came online to see the other thread is closed!
What; has Taliban taken over IF? Negatively criticizing Barun Sobti? We were just discussing his recent not-so-great looks and PR skills and not maligning his character for God's sake! This thread was so harmless! I am new to the forum but has such prejudice been meted out frequently or it's just now that forum members and Mods have become touchy?

It seems some of the people keep lurking around at Annie's thread and report at the slightest 'negative' talked about Sobti/ASR. This forum is now full of fanatics. Unbelievable! Do I now make a Sobti shrine and offer prayers? Christ! I am so furious right now. What's there to discuss when there is no freedom of speech? And shouldn't there be a warning before closing the thread? How can they just drop in one sentence and say- 'thread closed'?!!!

I pity the fact that the thread got closed, there has been a lot of discussions where Barun's so called skills have been discussed, but this thread gets closed? I dont get it, civilized criticism is not allowed? so why are they a public figure? Its sad that you cant voice your opinion accept if your going gaga over the actor, thats what this forum is made for, to show what a sad old person you are and keep going on and on about the actors in a desperate manner.

I guess we are so good with our discussions that all these sad people peep in and start reading and then report it. Anyways I am done with this forum, I dont give two hoots about BS or the show or the people on this forum. Maybe they'll close this thread too, are we violating the rules😲

Just wanted to say that you all are amazing people and it was lovely spending time with you guys on the posts :)

yes, i have seen warnings in other threads - where they were discussing how Barun's love for his wife affects his ability to act in romantic scenes - we were no where close to pushing the line like that discussion, yet they only got a warning...

Did you guys see the likes on the mod's note in that thread? So I guess these sad fanatics creep into the thread and start reading it, OMG I have never been so angry over people on a PUBLIC FORUM, I think I have had enough of this immaturity, they can continue worshiping for all I care now.

Yes, the 'likes' made me wonder about some people lurking and spying on the thread. Sick!

I fell asleep last night with my fingers on my IPad trying to type a message to the mods!
Is it a sin to admire someone enough to want to see them restored to their former glory? If yes then I admit to being a sinner and very gald to be one! I would prefer people who constructively criticise and give me tips fro improvement to people who are constantly kowtowing to me whatever I do! That is how you learn and gain from experience!
As far as I can see, our posts have only expressed anguish over lost glory and comments about how things can and should be improved.
We have the right to praise when appropriate, and we should have the right to criticise when necessary!

I just don't understand these mods- they shut down a thread mindlessly where people are expressing a valid point but happily ignore awful posts titled SI's salary (honestly, I was so shocked when I saw the title and the views the post got! I couldn't taint myself with even pointing the cursor on the topic let alone open it), or worse, Sanaya in Kiss Scene or Just Imagine the Suhag Raat??!!???

Interesting they did not close down a post titled'Gorgeous Sanaya, but Barun' which pretty much said the same things as people did in Enigma's post. Why the hell would we even comment on the guy if we did not care for the actor and the character he is playing?

I read all the posts which were essential making the urging the actor to be better groomed, some slightly stronger than others, there was nothing in any that struck me as being in any way offensive or objectionable.
Methinks the mods are overly sensitive, I bet Mr. Sobti would have taken it in a better spirit than than these misguided mods.

😆 Really? What next, how many times they pee? Sheesh.

I think they should add this to the rule book.

How to make a post on BS. Write "I LOVE BS" Bas. Anything more your post will be closed w/ or w/o warning.

PS- I LOVE BS. bas.
