Opti, I'm sorry, I know you wanted to stop this, but I just feel compelled over here to type out my POV.... I don't think Rima is entirely invalid in her claims... I don't think all Michians bash Neev/Jay... I mean I and Rima and even you and many others are examples of it 😊 To be honest right now, the forum is MUCH MUCH better to Jai, I haven't seen anybody bash him except one or two members, so as of now, I don't feel as if Jay is disrespected at all 😊
But before I too felt that sometimes he does not get the respect he deserves (this is not to be confused by appreciation). Case in point, the questions for Jay Neev thread 1, when some few people went and talked about Shachi in his thread, even after the mods gave them a warning to not even mention any other actor... now when this happened nobody protested to this, no complaints, infact some people just went along and laughed about it...Eventually the mods sorted it out (I reported)... but had it been some other established actor, would he be given the same treatment??? If an NP fan came to a Shabbo's thread and started talking about Jay and Panchi, would any Michi/Shabbo fan, INCLUDING ME, take it lightly???? Wouldn't anyone have gone there and defended him immediately???
And not to forget, the numerous Neev, Jay, JP, NP threads that have turned into Shachi threads... I'm sure had this been a Shachi thread, where JP fans went to talk about Jay-Panchi, this would not have been tolerated at all, .... but apparently the same courtesy isn't given to Jay... now that irks me...
Also I stated this somewhere else, I don't particularly mind if Michi is liked more than Neev, afterall people have their preferances, they have a right to like who they like, but what I do mind is how sometimes people put down Neev/Jay to glorify their favorites...
Right now things are fine, but there have been moments Jay/Neev hasn't been respected enough, and this has nothing to do with liking him, its just to do with common courtesy... This would be POV, had it been ANY other actor...
Btw, thanks for this post,... I don't think anybody could have said it better than you Opti... and I really appreciated it being a Neev/Jay fan 😊
