I agree that Mods are human, and we certainly don't expect you to be here 24x7. But there is a crying need for Mods on this forum. What you are saying is that this is a one off incident. Regular members of the forum can tell you that this happens every Sunday. It begins one hour before the show telecast and continues till we start bashing. Till then requests and PMs seem to fall on deaf ears.

No we do not like to make a nuisance of ourselves. We are reasonable and sane people. But there is only this much we can take, week after week after week. Fact remains that excessive spamming is killing this forum. When a show is telecast is when most people want to log in and share their opinions but they are foiled by the spammers who have eaten up first 8 pages.

Seriously, would have appreciated if our complaint threads were closed AFTER the spammer threads are deleted.

We should offer to voluntarily lock down our own threads on a routine basis...save the over worked Mods some trouble!!!
Between the two of us we already have three threads locked-soon to go up to five,with this one and another one of mine-AND ON PAGE ONE!!

Deetoo & three should learn from us this far easier way of staying on Page ONE!!!

Seriously if I ever reach Goldie, it'll be all thanks to spammers. I've made more posts today, in order to counter spammers, than I have in the last two weeks.

I get put off and don't feel like posting on the forum thanks to spam and deluge of odd irrelevant posts!

I was thinking of reporting to Dev team or something!

Sorry if I sound harsh, but this show, Satyamev Jayate is the BIGGEST Phenomenon on Indian TV right now and even international media following it, but it's shocking that its forum does not have even full time, active, proper mod!!

Other shows have so many members in their dev team, those members are also active and play key role in encouraging other members to keep up participation and discussion. Why is this show neglected from week 1 itself?

After its episode is over, one feels like immediately coming and discussing here. But is shocked and repelled to see loads of spam running into pages!

Why we have only one mod? How can one mod handle everything on time, single handedly?

Sorry we can't continue like this, if the forum has to be loaded with spam and no timely action taken against trolls or spammers!

Why is India Forums Team giving such second class treatment to this show and its forum? [I am sorry, but I get this feeling only!]

The vampires are back in action.

Two weeks ago, we made a nuisance of ourselves, created a furor and generally behaved like the pests that we are NOT in order to get some action taken against spammers.

Last week we requested and pleaded like crazy to have another mod assigned to this forum so that the Sunday madness could be controlled. Almost all active members of the forum PMed the Mod to be present and around to take charge and we had a clean forum and some really healthy discussions.

This week we all took it easy and look whats the result.

So moral of the story. This forum is going to be plagued by pests. We have choice, either we take the initiative and act like pests or the spammers are going to take over.
