I have been on this forum for sometime now and all I see are attacks on the show, the characters and so forth...

Is there not a moderator of this forum????? I was thinking that they would say or do something about it. I am getting quite offended by the blatant attacks on everyone and everything...

There is no moderator on the forum. What you can do is PM one of the Global Moderators (Aahaana, gk_09, *Shruti*) with links. I do attempt to report posts that I see but I don't always see.

I agree and the report doesn't work. It puts me off from posting because of the sheer rudeness here, there is any constructive discussion going on here because of the constant attack on members with a different view...sad state of affair...

^ Actually I'm not saying to report it by pressing the Report button, but actually PMing the link of the thread and the issue to the GMs. Because the GMs may not be coming here to check the forum everyday.

The forum is barely active.Reporting things like that will make it dead.And to be honest I haven't seen anything of that sort, maybe once in a while but nothing alarming.Anyways it people's opinion about the show and they have a right to express it.

The problem isn't necessarily the right' to express an opinion but rather the civility expressed exercising that right. True over use of report' button discourages freedom of expression or a healthy discussion, but at the same time members are discouraged, if they are openly mocked, abused and called names like moron' and their posts misinterpreted and misconstrued. To me, everyone must be heard out with politeness and civility without bashing. I hardly comment these days in this forum or in IF, but the one thread I ventured out an opinion here, a member jumped and bashed me openly and rudely calling names and misconstruing my post...I am sure, that doesn't encourage healthy discussion either. Shouldn't we be discussing our POV in a neutral tone both keeping our emotions under control and giving the other person same respect that we ourselves deserve and demand?

If you feel someone is personally attacking you then you should just ignore that person. There is no point in arguing with such people. Don't stop yourself from posting your opinions because someone is rude to your online.

True ^, that could be the ideal way to deal with the situation. But I am hardly a perfect human being (rather far from it) and so do retort back. Besides, it hurts to get be insulted...how much does it cost anyone to be polite and civil to a fellow being?

its not being rude to you. It's bashing all the characters and last time I checked that was not allowed but it continues...

I haven't seen any bashing in this forum, but yeah some members have express their displeasure with certain things in the show and that is completely normal and is allowed in IF😊
