Hiiiiiiiiii! *waves*

So I've realized that Chat Clubs on I-F aren't private. (apparently neither are PM's? 😲 but that's another storyy for another dayy 🥱)

So can we have like secret clubs or something? Where we can talk about whatever and whenever? 😆 I hardly drop by anymore, but when I do, it's to catch up with stuff, and all the restraints just make me walk away in disgust, we all gotta think 10x before saying/doing anything. >.<

Sometimes we just gotta let some stuff out, (even if we have to curse indirectly or something), and I-F would make a nice place to vent because people don't judge.

But we all know about stalkers and stuff, you say one wrong thing, you've got 10 people up your female donkey.

So just like Dev. Team has secret sections where no one else can interfere, can members get that privilege too? It'll keep people on this site, that's fer suree.

What's the point of staying if we are gonna be told to interact freely on our own site or something, which has happened.

I agree! I love this idea. This secret club could only be moderated by moderators of that section and other members can't access it. This sounds like a really cool idea!

IF is known to be an open forum, and as you mentioned some of the places are restricted to regular members. I thought IF was an open platform, if it is then I'm sure either other sections could be open for everyone to view (NOT post) or there could be a locked section strictly for a particular group or something.

I like your idea Madz, but then again, these people can check our PMs, what are the guarentees that they won't come sneak around there?!

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeah, stalkers suck. And so do those DEV team members who think they can bash members in the 'PRIVATE' sections, like the Viewbie Section. COME OUT AND SAY IT TO THE FACE, YOU TWO FACED COWARD.



They bash members? I thought you weren't allowed to bash anyone on IF. Aren't they part of the DT though? How does that work?

Sadly, that's what I've heard. EXCATLY my point. They get to bash us thinking we won't find out, but little do they know that some viewbies actually follow rules and don't do that, and tell the people who are getting based. THEY GET AWAY WITH IT BECAUSE THEY ARE APART OF THE DEV TEAM. Unfair, isn't it? No one does anything, not even GMs :O

I like your Idea.. but it seems too superfictal.. =(
Firstly, there won't be much privacy if the "secret clubs" section has a Development Team member, as they can read into the threads than can't they? Also i don't think many members here are in favour of the DT, so how can you afford to have a DT invading your section?
All Sections can be opened by GMs/Admins - So they will be nothing "private" to discuss unless there is something membes feel the need 2 curse out at others cause they can't do it to their face? lol but yes, like somebody else mentioned in this thread, everything should be kept open, but unfortunetly it can't, since we'll have members quoting every single line, and doing a detailed in depth analysis of it :( Which is soo sad, because.. only if people did this for their coursework and essays, they'd get grade A's right? LOL!
Just reading the above, i came across PMs not being private.. TELL ME ABOUT IT! - i've even seen member's annoucing and showcasing their own PMs as their sig boxes! =|
My point is, PM stands for Private Messaging, if the people PMing each other don't have a problem with showing of the PMs to the whole world, then we are nobody to judge that right?
India Forums is a PUBLIC forum, which means - EVERYONE VIEWS what goes on - If you aren't a member, they can still see what you post - Stalkers will always be there, Its something nor you or i can change..so whats the point discussing it? As far as the restricted DT sections are concerned, havn't you ever gone to a Mall/Store and seen the "STAFF ONLY" room? Well yes, do you think the Mall will make a customer only room? thats a joke right? Something to really think about ... you can't just walk into the Staff Only Room // you don't work there right? =S
Finally, I'd just like to point out, I've never seen a DT bash a member on I-F.. and again i'll say.. Get the DT the evidence and there will be action taken..
You can't just accuse somebody of something, and not show the evidence.. e.g. I can't just randomly blame a member without having the facts first, so i would say, the evidence is needed before allegations are made on DTs

Which is soo sad, because.. only if people did this for their coursework and essays, they'd get grade A's right? LOL! LOLLLLLL. OMG you're so funny.
Just reading the above, i came across PMs not being private.. TELL ME ABOUT IT! - i've even seen member's annoucing and showcasing their own PMs as their sig boxes! =| OOOHH! Thats me that's me!!! I've done thatttttttttt!
My point is, PM stands for Private Messaging, if the people PMing each other don't have a problem with showing of the PMs to the whole world, then we are nobody to judge that right? My point is .. we weren't even talking about PM's .. didn't Madiha say we'll leave that for next time? But I just wanna say: if people wanna share their PM's, good for them. But I don't think anyone else BESIDES them should know about it or have the choice of looking into it, which some people do.
As far as the restricted DT sections are concerned, havn't you ever gone to a Mall/Store and seen the "STAFF ONLY" room? Well yes, do you think the Mall will make a customer only room? thats a joke right? Something to really think about ... you can't just walk into the Staff Only Room // you don't work there right? =S Lovely analogy, by the way. Lemme give you something more: have you ever been in a fitting room? Sure the staff owns them or whatever, but they don't come barging in either, now do they? Ponder on it.
Finally, I'd just like to point out, I've never seen a DT bash a member on I-F.. and again i'll say.. Get the DT the evidence and there will be action taken.. Tauba taubaaaaaaaaa. Apun sab ka tamasha kya ta, phir?

LMAO. I see that my bff has intervened in this topic. I wonder how said BFF found the topic. I wonder if it had anything to do with a word that starts with stalk and ends with ing.

Congratulations Einstein.

ANYWAY.

I'm sorry, mall analogy was terrible, think outside the box, just cuz I'm a girl doesn't mean I won't understand other analogies.

As for Dev. Team looking over secret clubs...um, why would they look over someone's private Chat Club unless they are like school dropouts/unemployed people who have nothing else to do with their lives?

Just in case people didn't get that...who said there should be a dev. team monitoring secret clubs? Um, hello, KEYword, CONTEXT clues, secret.

I mean, unless if they're stalkers, we have many of THOSE around here, now don't we?

BECAUSE I CAN GO ON AND ON. I'LL SAY SOMETHING ANYWAYS. OH PUH-LEEEEEEEEEZ BOY, DO NOT START WITH THAT. HOW THE FU-- FUDGE ARE WE SUPPOSE TO GET EVIDENCE WHEN IT GOES ON IN THE PRIVATE SECTIONS? YOU KNOW IT, AS WELL AS I DO, THAT DEV TEAM MEMBERS DO BASH MEMBERS BEHIND THE CLOSED DOORS. *ahem* y-o-u *ahem*
