Agreed, but my comment ws not a personal attack, it was a joke a naseeha with well meant intentions

[quote]this post is created because the topic starter was attacked personally in another thread...[/quote]

I do not know about that. I do not call Shivani's statement a personal attack. She was saying that Tapasya is her family only as a joke because she was supporting the actress for that role so much.

According to human rights laws, everyone has a freedom of speech and conscious beliefs and everyone acts according to their own perception of what they conceive is right or wrong.

There was no abuse or personal attacks as no family names were mentioned, it was not said in a rude, or abusive manner to hurt or taunt her family, nor do we know each other or our intentions, and so there should be more tolerance from both sides.

[quote]I m not saying the topic starter is right here..but somewhere we all need to draw the lines between sarcasm,joke and personal attack.. [/quote]

Correct, but how do you differentiate between a personal attack, a joke, and sarcasm with this type of comment?

It is a very fine line and you, yourself may end up hurting others who had well meant intentions. It is therefore more wiser to adhere to taking actions only on abusive posts or those that really do give out personal attacks rather than on mere whim for someone just responding as a friendly joke, or as anyone does when supporting one team against another.

[quote]May be your intention was not to hurt anyone..[/quote]

Definitely not. How can it be? Is there anything bad I said about controling blood sugar and caring for one's health?

[quote]but then there r certain words whichmight b taken in a offensive manner by the other person..[/quote]

I would really like to know what they were and how you construed my one line as a "personal attack"? I don't even remember ever responding this member before today.

[quote]we should learn to respect everyone's opinion irrespective of whether we agree to it or not[/quote]

True but you may be contradicting yourself if you dissallow some people to voice their comments that you do not agree to because of your perception of what defines a personal attack, which others may not agree with..

[Quote]I know its a friendly forum which is good👏..but in a friendly forum its also important that we welcome all types of discussions in a contructive manner..there is a thin line between construcvtive criticism and bashing..[/quote]

Thank you, but neither I or anyone else was "bashing" this member here. That is very strong accusation.

Not all discssions here are in constructive criticisms, most are jokes and expressive comments to relieve members of the frustrations of this serial show. 😆

[quote]Also its a discussion forum dear...there r separate chat clubs forumfor chatting ..[/quote]

According to you, this is a discussion forum, but according to me this is a chat forum. So if you say you welcome all types of discussions then you should be true to your word and respect that people will perceive and define things differently from you, after all we are all adults and have equal rights.

[quote]in discussion forum its necessary that we appreciate both types of discussions whether we agree to a certain POV or not😊

I am simply going to close this post now, since I think Jyoti made the point very clear why sarcastic comments or indirect attacking is not allowed on this forum or anywhere on IF. Bashing an actress or any member on this forum directly or indirectly is not allowed... and if any further instigatory posts r made warning levels will be raised - effective immediately.
