Hello awesome KYPH memebers, we just want to let you know that you all are doing a great job...Our section has become most popular of all just in a couple of months and the credit solely goes to the enthusiastic members we have...As you may also have noticed that we have been having a heavy traffic of messages and its being really a challenge to navigate at times...Of course its a very positive challenge as it also means that our section is the most visited one...To make sure that it remains the best and also for a smooth running we came up with the following set of guidelines....These will make it for a very cool operation and you all will love it even more...It just needs a little more co-operation from all of us.
- Please DO NOT just post irrelevantly or ask questions already discussed just to increase your post count. Remember, India Forums is a place to have fun and discuss things, and NOT, I repeat, NOT, just to increase your post count.
- Before posting topics which are angrily directed towards the KYPH forum moderators & viewbies because of any deleted posts, please once think if your posts were profane or irrelevant to KYPH.
- Avoid making comments about actors. This is a serious warning against using profanity, or otherwise insulting an actor.
- Please dont ask for updates, such posts will be removed without any further notice
- Please stop repeating posts. Before you post make sure its not there already...Atlease try!
- Please look at the sticky topics first...They are made sticky for a purpose...Anything which belongs there, posted outside will be deleted. Any messages other than comments about that day's episode should go into the respective sticky topics, otherwise will be deleted...
- Post which personally attack, insult, threaten, harass or are clearly disrespectful of the opinions of other participants are not to be made on KYPH forum or any other forum on India-forums.
- Personal attacks on members are very serious. This refers to immature, hurting pranks such as ones which say that members have had accidents etc. etc., and those which have crude, vulgar insults about other members. Members who post such things will be dealt with SERIOUSLY.
- Try as far as possible to avoid posting just smileys such as "http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=302253&K W😊", "", etc, just to increase your post count.
- Do NOT post hundreds of smileys, as this makes the entire topic very hard to read.
- Do not use very large font or do not post messages in all capitals letters it is not permitted. This represents "shouting" on the internet and can be viewed as offensive by other members.
- Please do not post any messages regarding Iqbal or Neha or anyone else you talking on MSN or Yahoo. You talked to them, that's great, but please do not post anything on here regarding that. Any topics that has is about your talk with the above two actors or anyone will be closed.
- We can chat, but try to link it with KYPH...
- Little bit of teasing,bantering and joking around with eachother
is fine...But whenever a new member is around, they have to be given full attention... - No personal one on one chats...The moment they surface, the other members should be able to get the convo back on track...Sometimes we see for pages together just 2 people chatting with each other about themselves...This is a total no,no...
- Since the main motto of IF is to help us all have fun, DEV Team
thinks that the topics like "jaapghar' and 'lost club' are fine as long as they adhere to the limitations that I explained above... - Last but not the least, The posts that go beyond 100 pages will
be closed and we can open another thread with the same topic...This is an arrangement to facillitate the server limitations...And also it will be much easier to track the procceedings if we keep it this way.. - We would just like to remind you that, members who consistently do not follow these guidelines, will get a warning. So please, try your best to keep to the guidelines of this forum. They are here, so we can keep KYPH forum the best!
- Members post articles and pictures. But they do not give credit from which site they got it from. So please do remember to give credit. And as for pictures also give credit.http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=302253&K W😊
I have also seen that many members have been or posted/ing videos from other forums. We do not allow videos from other forums. So please wait till Surchi dii ( topranger ) posts it. 1.) While discussing characters, whether it is Angad, Kripa, Nishant, Kanan or whoever, you are allowed to present your likes/dislikes to the other forum members. However, please don't use abusive, instigating or "taunting" language. Anything that provokes the other side to respond violently will not be tolerated and action will be taken immediately, as per the discretion of the Dev Team. What is considered as "instigating" will also be at the discretion of the Development Team.
2.) If you have an article, we would love it if you share it, but make sure you post a source. And similarly, while discussing the contents of the article, please stay away from personal attacks on stars & other members.
3.) Also, whenever you post an article, please post the DATE. This is very important as it has been noticed that members post old articles. This has been very misleading and members start arguing over an article that is now history. Therefore, any articles missing a date, will be trashed/locked at the Development Team's discretion.
4.) Using India-Forum's Videos, Pictures, Updates, Articles or any other kind of I-F property on another forum will not be tolerated.
5.) Similarly, posting videos, articles, pictures, updates, or any other external property on India Forums is NOT allowed. We consider this is as "Indirect Advertising" and it can result in a straight ban!
6.) Lately, Videos & pictures have been posted with a link to another forum written on them – this is NOT allowed at any cost and it will lead to a straight ban. Therefore, please refrain yourself from doing so in the future.
7.) Any kind of profanity or abusive language will not be tolerated.
8.) Spamming with just smileys and unnecessary one-liners is not allowed. Also posting "you have been answered" or "done" after somone's query has been answered is considered SPAM!!! So please refrain yourself from that, otherwise warnings will be increased asap!
9.) Topics like "Where is the Video update for today?", "Can you give me Iqbal's/Neha's/Hiten's/Gauri's email address or phone number or home address??", "Who is better – Iqbal or Eijaz or another star?" … and other questions along these lines will be trashed straight!!!
10.) Videos are uploaded as soon as we can get them. All you need is patience!
11.) We are not Yellow Pages – therefore, we don't have anyone's email address, phone number or home address. Even if we do, it's purely for Podcast Interview purposes and we DON'T give out such personal information at ANY cost.
12.) Iqbal, Eijaz, Rajeev, etc. etc. are all doing a great job in their own way. All of them have their own fan following. Therefore, we don't need to make polls on such things. Same goes for all other KYPH stars.
13.) Be Vigilant - See someone bashing or not following the Forum Guidelines?? – PM anyone from KYPH Dev Team or any other GM that is online. Sending the PM to a Dev Team member is better than you arguing and getting yourself in trouble.
