Hello Fellow Forum Members! I would like to inform you one thing before you proceed into the post. Only people who are generous enough to spent 2minutes of their time and patient enough to think what I'm REALLY trying to say read further. I'm really sorry if your opinions clashes with mine.
Issue One: Negativity
You know what I'm talking about. The inspiration for me to join this forum was not only because of the show but also because of the way the discussions were in this forum. As you can see I joined only by November. The way the discussions used to be, the way members used to interact <even now they interact, but read more to know what I'm meaning>. Now, the forum's filled <I'd call it 'polluted'> with a bit negative-ish posts. If said shortly: Forum=Battle field.
You know, before, if there were differences of opinion, people used to sort it out, and truly understand what point is being tried to convey. Even recently <two days back, I suppose> there was a BIG clash having language as the issue. According to me, grammar and things don't matter, as everyone's first language isn't English. But then, still, one can always type like this, instead of typing lyk diz.
And when the news about Barun to go off for shooting his film came out, the whole forum went hyper and many started posts like "I'm not going to watch the show" "I quit" and stuff like that. People started changing their usernames and there was a cold war between two virtual groups: The 'Bashers' and the 'fans'. Now let's leave that. 'cause that's an old story. Why kindle that now?
Issue Two: Violation of rules and regulations
I'm not a moderator, but as a member of the forum I feel this MUST be put to an end. Newbies. I'm not mentioning here all the newbies. But some newbies who come on the forum and start topics saying "I'm new" "Hello! New Here" or "Guysss!! I need helppp!" . When there's an Introduction corner for introducing yourself in the forum, why open a separate thread? And there exists a help desk too for asking help from members.
Issue Three: The "I-too-have-a-spoiler" Game
Yes. You read it right. This is the new way of getting a lot of views and likes. Everyone tends to make a spoiler… Wait! Make-up a spoiler on their own <I'm not referring to everyone, but some who just play with the members saying "It's confirmed!" and stuff > Well, share the spoilers. But in the Spoilers Corner!
Issue Four: This is not about the forum.
Yeah. I just wanted to vent out my feelings. This is the BIGGEST issue I'm facing. That scene. <Not the hot one… I really loved it> But the scene which we all saw in the precap. Seriously, ASR falling in Shyam's <ewww> leg?!?!?!?! That's tooo much. They can't do this. You won't believe, but I cry whenever I get reminded of that even though the episode isn't aired still. THAT was too hurting. Too negative. I really want to be consoled… <Really wish that it's just a nightmare of Khushi!-Least possiblity>
Issue Five: The BD!
Honestly, now-a-days, there a lot of posts on BDs more than that on the show itself! God! I feel that there must me a separate thread opened for it titled "The Body Double [Discuss Here ONLY]" Seriously! Poor souls! They just work for us, right? If they hadn't been there, because of the clashes in call-sheets, we wouldn't have got episodes at all! Please please don't bash them.
I made this post just to share what I feel about the forum right now. But I must tell one thing. The mods are really great. In an active forum like IPKKND, being a moderator must be really a tough job.
Hoping I didn't spam the forum with my post. If I had sounded rude, pardon me, I really didn't mean to be rude.
So, as the L'Oreal slogan goes: Five Problems; One Solution Is there a solution? If so, share it by commenting! Have a great weekend and an awesome week ahead!
Loved the Show! Loving the Show! Will continue to Love the show! <Forum too, of course>
