I would like to thank Love_is_AD for letting me know where i lack. I sincerely thank her as she took so much pain to register herself today just to let me know what lousy job i do.
Normally people come up with "hey new to the forum" kinda posts but i feel so obliged to read Love_is_AD's first post, she not only abided the rules of forum but also enlightened me to greater heights.
I have been receiving few PMs telling me that my comments suck big time and that they mislead the readers. i always ignored them cause i would get other 50 PMs daily telling me how they enjoyed my updates and how my comments make it a bit bearable.
But today this has come in the open. so i have to ask this question to all of you.
If you seriously want me to stop putting in my comments in the update, please do let me know. That in fact will make my job very easy. writing live update is anyways tricky and difficult, adding your own comments make it gruesome, mainly because my brains has to do multitasking. coming out with those lines at the right time is not as easy as it looks.
One very important point that people often forget is that WE, COOLBIES ARE NOT EMPLOYEES here. we are NOT getting paid for what we write. as an IT professional, my one hour costs my company at around 500 rs or 12$ or 8 euro. i write update for 2 hours which makes it 1000rs or 24$ a day....but fact remains same here that I am not getting paid. i do it cause i love it, cause some of you love it!
We, Updaters while updating can not enjoy episode, which any updater would vouch for.We are so much under pressure to give you updates on the time that half our attention is on computer screens. when the PC and TV are placed in two different rooms, it gets even worst cause we have to jog from one room to another in breaks..
Whatever comments that i write they are strictly for Fun purpose. sometimes Episode is very boring and nothing much happens, then as a coolbie i feel its my duty to make it a bit spicy which i do with my comments and mind you, i have not spared anyone even JW from my comments!!
Like Shruti very rightly said, our parents and family members are fed up of this "Samajseva" as my mother puts it. We do not dine till the update is over. we do not let our family watch any other serial in that time slot. My parents have never got a chance to watch end of their favorite serial which comes at 8.30 on another channel, cause i change the channel atleast 5 minutes before KS starts so as not to miss even single point at start. No channel surfing in the breaks too cause again i might miss some points... Gals!! it takes a lot to come up with updates.
i do not want you people to feel obliged by me or any other updater...but please this is getting out of hands now.
One post in the morning criticising Klue and now Me and all others...what for???
If you cant appreciate our efforts please do not demean them. It hurts as hell!!!
Himali.Coolbie....KS.
PS: can we celebrate today as Universal Coolbie Bashing Day....or is that Characters in KS are less in numbers so now all the frustration is coming on personal levels.
