Agreed.
I haven't been on this forum since the beginning. So don't know how the forum was like before. I once did though, check through previous posts during KDM's golden days, Prem's death or even during the GS track. One thing I would like to say, how the forum was before and what it is now is just completely different. We would at times have some masti mazak moments on the forum, and that is what I truly love! Even during horrible or sad episodes, some way or another we would find a way to make us all laugh, be happy. Nowadays, good or bad episodes the forum seems to be in an off mood. Too many negative topics, asking for the show to end, and the biggest shocker for me was when our own forum members were pointing fingers at one of our most trusted Deshian! Shows have bad days, be it episode, shifting it to afternoon, or quality of the show. I agree the quality of the show has gone down, it has become a daily thing. So we do need to talk about it. As much as we love this show, that's how much we care about it. And if something happens that just breaks our hearts, we criticize the show. Is that so bad? Can we not have a healthy discussion without pointing fingers at each other?
The negative topics have gotten a bit out of hand, nowadays. I agree. This is a forum, we are a family and we have a right to speak our mind. But I can't find one single positive topic about the show now. Whether it is something small like Prem's undershirts, or something big like Prem returning perhaps. We have lost faith in creatives, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't w&w. They may have learnt something, and will be pleasing us later? Nowadays, all I see is negative topics. But I really do appreciate the people who tries to put light in the forum.
And most importantly, about the show ending. Now I ask, do we really want this? Yes, some of us want it now. But what if when the show ends? Won't we miss E's BTLT's, Triv's pathshalas, Khushi's episode caps, SBS? Or our funny and enjoyable moments on the EDT? Won't we miss all those? I just don't get why people are asking for the show to end. When it is not needed at this point! Let the show go through it's course, and one day like all shows, it will come to an end when it needs to. I say, if you are not liking the current track, or getting pissed off by the quality of the show, then stop watching it, or take a break from the show. See how that does to you, instead of asking if to end in a hurry!
Your right Shifs. We are too demanding. I don't know how the forum was during Prem's death, but I read many people talking about it, and it seemed like you guys were strong, we guys believed in each other that Prem will come back! And now, most people have lost faith, trust that KDM will return back to PT. But, I also ask. When KDM returns back to PT, will it gain the TRP's it used to? I mean yes! It did post leap, but what if it won't be able to gain as much, and SP will just axe the show all together? What then? Please don't get me wrong, I still am fighting, but like Shifs said. We have to discuss the pros and cons.
This forum is not what it used to be. And I just want it back.
Thanks Shifs, for this post.......
