I have a question regarding the Barun Sobti Movie Thread. I visited that topic and was hugely surprised seeing the rules placed.
1. Why aren't solo ASR pictures allowed? Is ASR not Barun? There are sooo many edits being made on ASR still, and fans find it exciting to post to their friends. Why is it so wrong to bring in ASR? This is the IPKKND forum after all!

2. And why do you want to close that thread down once Barun's movies release? IPK forum is the most visited forum for any Sobtian, I presume, and it's unfair to snatch that away from us.
It's highly disappointing, since I have seen other forums still having threads for their actors who have forayed into Bollywood.

Thank you TM for bringing this idea of a chat with DTs. :) xx

Agree, I had questioned this considerably recently, about why indexes of favorite stories are getting closed. I got rid of the MOD name to not create controversy. But she finally opened up the Index by making the TM change it to favorites list.

I just realized that the post you're arguing with me about is actually another TMs, so I'll speak with that member now and figure out something.

As such, if someone created a favorites list. You should have left it alone for the sake of "to each his own." Instead, you imposed your own list which is nearly impossible to filter as it is right now.

We don't like the rating system because we have previously had that and members were discouraged and believe me when I say that fights like literal arguments and fights broke out. That's what we don't want now so we're going to have to not include that.

Which is why I don't understand your view of redundancy. It was presented in a different light and with the caveat that it was current popular and favorites. These were selected with an obvious attempt to differentiate with all of the rest. There was a lot of thought and effort put into it beyond just listing.
Also, to be clear, this was not my listing, but one that I had appreciated.

Either that, or the forum needs to compile a list with favorable ratings system.

The index that I had given you the link to is supposed to be the only index in the forum which the new members refer to. It has the stories instead of writers usernames like you had done.

Hi - I saw that you closed a Topic because you felt the content redundant. However, I think that list was not all encompassing but rather a favorites list of writers at this time. I have gone through your index as well. It was not nearly as organized and nor did it contain top performers. I would revisit your decision to close the topic.

I have one question for DT's...
I have been part of this forum for more than two years...my question is regarding fanfictions...
in other forums (most of the forum) fanfictions are posted in the main forum only...
DT created new rule in October/September (not sure of the month) 2011 that Arhi Fan Fictions which had crossed fifteen pages will be moved to FF forum to reduce traffic in the IPKKND forum...
if FF's are moved only to reduce the traffic...then why are you still following that rule???
I mean it has been a year since ipkknd ended and activity of the forum has decreased considerably!
I am just curious about this rule...nothing else...

In IPKKND forum we do not have such a rule so you may want to ask the forum DTs where this rule applies. 😊

In that thread anyone can post any pic of Barun...
Arshi Pics
Khushi pics etc...



At the moment we have a Picture Gallery for this and now we also have this Twitter thread. If we find a lot of pictures we might sanction the opening of such a thread.

Doesn't this make the twitter too messy? Its not exactly indexed so that people know when new pictures have been added. I've found it nearly impossible to follow such threads.

Also, not everyone is interested in every picture. But are interested in some pictures.

Some members also have a specific following. Is there a reason why that member can't have their own topics as they have garnered that reputation amongst other members?



We can index it if needed. Someone would need to PM us whenever they post new pics and we can add it to the main thread as well as the title.

At the moment let's run with one thread. If we find that people would rather have separate threads we can always do that again.

Thank you TM for opening this thread and thanks to the DTs for answering our queries.

How shall we know that a new picture is posted on the twitter celeb page if the title is not updated every time a new picture is posted? I would like to suggest that the title should be updated with the date of posting the picture. Also an index is a must. Otherwise the thread will be a mess with many members missing out on many pictures. Having said that, I still believe its better to let the members post the twitter updates on separate threads as and when they are available. If there are multiple posts on the same topic, all other posts leaving the first one should be closed. A single thread on all twitter updates will be messy and cumbersome.

The opening of the official GOTW thread has reduced the activity of the forum. Not everyone likes to play the same game. Its sad but the truth is the forum has become boring. What's the point in opening an official GOTW if it can't provide the fun? It was much better when there was no GOTW. Playing the games here in this forum and playing them in the forum games is not the same. I feel it restricts the freedom of the members of IPKKND forum. Please rethink the decision and allow the game threads. Not interested in an official GOTW. A poll should be conducted to see what the majority of the forum members want.


Sorry to say but the forum feels more like a jail nowadays with members' activities being restricted to such an extent. The rules were there before too but why become so strict all of a sudden? Shouldn't the rules be a little bit flexible? Its afterall a discussion forum



As I stated we can always update the title when a new pic is posted. We request the poster to simply PM us with the page number when they post a new pic and we'll update it. And we'll also add an index to the first post.

If you can find at least 10 or 15 members who are willing to play another game we can discuss opening a second game.

We haven't exactly restricted everyone. We are just attempting to make the forum more organized.

Lately, it seems the forums have become very quiet. Shouldn't the forum members and DT be more open and encouraging members to participate more?

Or has IPKKND forum been targeted with more rigid rules because we were the most active forum on IF? No doubt in the past, this forum did have its share of drama.


If that is the case, can we not become more in aligned with other forums as we have decreased in activity?



We have been attempting to make the forum more welcoming, however, it may be moving the other way.

No one has been targeting the IPKKND forum. We are just attempting to make it more organized.
