VIEWBIES NOTE
I usually start off notes, with a good quote or on a positive note as I WANT to encourage healthy discussions BUT I don't think that concept exists in this place anymore. 🤔
From the first day we were appointed, both Jyots AND I had one goal...to get rid of the personal attacks going on. We tried our level best to maintain a healthy environment (thanks to many members...thanks for everything) and we tried our level best to be fair with EVERYONE. We did not keep in mind that member A is a Sadhna fan, member B is a Ragini fan, member C is a Alekh fan and member D is a Ranvir fan....no, we are ALL Bidaaians.
During that brutal rift track...we decided to let you guys vent out your frustration towards the show. I was frustrated with the show and I did not agree with many, BUT I decided to hear them out and let the discussions continue.
The news of Sagini's reunion had been confirmed and our forum was AS jubilious as it could be. We were all BEYOND impressed with each other...and I was SO honoured to be part of such a forum, where things like negativity did not exist.
We actually thought that all the negativity here had demised and that everyone could continue with HEALTHY discussions with EVERYONE.
This place runs by simple math...when the foursome are happy, so is the forum. When the foursome are in some chhakar, so is the forum. I understand that you all may view scenarios differently and may think from another POV, thats a given. We are human beings...we have beliefs, viewpoints, opinions, emotions, likes, dislikes and so on. Who knows how many times I have said these recycled dialogues? Yet why does it seem like I'm talking to a wall when I do?
Discussions continue when disagreement occurs, actually. Disagreement widens one's perspectives and horizons, PROVIDED it is taken into mind the correct way and PROVIDED it is SENT OUT the civilized way. There is ALWAYS a more civilized way to state your state of mind....and THAT can be done without:
a) Personally attacking ANY member of the forum
b) Bashing ANY character of the show
c) Instigating ANY fights
We have been quite easy-going, regarding bashing of characters BUT now I have realized that some of the posts being said are NOT fun and games. As India-Forums is a forum to discuss Indian Television shows...we cannot allow the bashing of ANY character of the show. I'm not the one who made up the Code of Conduct...I am just ENFORCING these rules as they MUST be followed. We have let this matter go very loosely for months now BUT I assure EVERYONE that our rules are FIXED as of now. We cannot delay and just overlook this issue anymore as it has gotten out of hand...which is why individual warnings WILL be sent out. As of now, the Bidaai DT has just been giving warning notes in threads...but individual consequences will be enforced as we have given EVERYONE here enough chances.
Regarding personal attacking, we have always been intolerant of the issue in the past...but it was never such a BIG issue after the new DT got appointed. In the recent past, we have unfortunately got to witness an EXCESSIVE amount of personal attacking. I have noticed that the disagreement regarding characters of the show, has been the common factor between most of the personal attacking...which is why you MUST refrain from bashing characters as it leads to many other problems. Some of the comments I have been reading, have HEAVILY disappointed me. How can we comment on each other's daily beliefs or things of sort...when we have only interacted ONLINE? There are real people behind that laptop screen...that have feelings. I don't care WHO started what...but the point is that many of you have been saying things that are uncalled for. Another thing...PLEASE DO NOT BRING other member's names and accuse them. If you jump to conclusions and say something...it'll be hard to get over that "slip of tongue." Believe me, telling people what to do and how to think...is just going to make the matter worse. Live and LET OTHERS LIVE...as I always say. We are taking this whole matter VERY seriously and ANY MEMBER CAUGHT INSTIGATING / PERSONALLY ATTACKING SOMEONE ELSE WILL FACE SEVERE CONSEQUENCES AS WE HAVE BEEN WARNING EVERYONE REGARDING THIS ISSUE.
To ANY member who would like to question the reason for a warning, there is a PM feature...there is NO need to degrade the DT's authority. We have ALWAYS tried our best to be fair and to make the majority of the forum happy BUT there is no way we can satisfy EVERYONE. We are always open to constructive critisism and suggestions...but we are ALSO busy in our lives and we are devoting as much time as we can to you guys. For the past few days, we have been typing NOTE AFTER NOTE AFTER NOTE...and I have been studying NON-STOP this week. I just completed 3 tests in one day...and I login & see so many reports? I have not slept for more than 48 hours and I know that isnt an excuse for being inactive...but we all need a break. And to those who are sarcastically mocking the forum...unnecessary sarcasm is not allowed on India-Forums.
I salute the members who are trying their best to maintain peace and a healthy atmopshere in this forum...hats off to you and a big thank you from our side.
Thank you SO much for the kind words, Sadia! We really appreciate the encouragement and the support...thank you SO much for trying to put an end to the arguements, saved us a lot of time and sweat! 🤗
