Dear I-F,
Sorry to make such a thread. I don't know how long will you let it last. Will you take some action, provide some response or simply delete or lock it, I don't know.
But still I will speak!
- Satyamev Jayate was easily the most anticipated and talked about Indian TV show in last few months - even before its launch. Still I-F never paid much attention to it - I feel.
- We have no proper Dev team. Just one person. That person is also in a different time zone. She alone is unable to handle the spammers or trolls and quick action is never ensured.
- MOST IMPORTANT - I had believed it was strictly against India Forums policy to discuss stars' or makers' personal lives. In case of Satyamev Jayate forum, I am appalled how the I-F team allows any post or thread about Aamir Khan's personal life, the posters are not even warned, nor their posts deleted. In fact, in one thread, even a Viewbie posted an ill-informed article about Aamir's personal life!
I have a lot of articles and interviews from Aamir's own family which can be used to clarify all stupid rumours about his family. But when I posted links to some of them - my post was deleted! I again wanted to post because the bullshit rumours and commentary on his personal life from random members and trolls did not stop. But I held myself back only because I felt it was against I-F rules to discuss a person's personal life or make any comment!
In other forums, even comments on actors' appearance or dressing sense are not allowed. How come in Satyamev Jayate forum, posts on Aamir's life are allowed? Even despite clarifications?! Are mods or team sleeping?đ˛
- What kind of ''Dev team'' do we have? Pics or videos of Satyamev Jayate may or may not be updated. If someone else tries to post videos he or she is told not to post Youtube links or let Videobie do the job! But the official threads on Satyamev Jayate Image gallery and Video gallery are lying rotting in back pages of the forum. Our forum has NO banner either. WHAT is this, may I know?
- There have been 3 different threads questioning Aamir's intent or his fees for this show by random members. They may or may not discuss the issues or give healthy criticism or suggestions for improvement of the show. But they talk about Aamir's pay or try to call fans of this show as fools or ''being led by a movie star'' etc. Anyone who defends Aamir is also called a ''paid lawyer'' or someone on Aamir's payrolls! đĄ How the hell are mods allowing this?
Some people have deliberately tried to bring other stars' names and tried to make it some fan war sort of discussion, while talking about Aamir's pay they also drag his family in it or paste links to rumours - DESPITE all clarifications on Aamir's pay and the economics of this show, why the hell are such threads being allowed?!!! Why don't mods lock them with immediate effect?
- How come members threads demanding a proper Dev team, some attention from I-F team and proper mods are deleted but threads by mischief makers are allowed? It is FINE to talk about Aamir's pay repeatedly or nitpick his personal life. But it is a problem if we give suggestions and demands for a saner forum?!
- Earlier we kept thinking maybe I-F team will pay attention to this forum later. Maybe this week we will get a banner, new mods, some action on trouble making posts etc. But two months passed, the show is about to end in 2-3 weeks now, still I-F team did nothing!!! Is I-F team so busy or short of staff that they could not even focus a proper team for a show which has to last for just 3 months?!đ Or maybe love story shows are more important and Satyamev Jayate was given shoddy treatment because it will end in 3 months any way!đ¤Ş
- Several members who used to actively post in SJ forum earlier, have now stopped posting. Even some of us [like me!!] feel it's better to post on SJ website or FB page, than come here and look at same old silly discussions on Aamir's personal life, pay etc.!
Sometimes when one sees this forum, one wonders if it is Satyamev Jayate forum or the Bollywood forum where gossip on pay, personal life or a stars' education or lack of it, is going on!
Will you guys from I-F team ever take action? Or will the forum be allowed to remain as it is and later be archived after 3 weeks with all muck as it is?!
I wonder if India Forums ever made any other serial forum members beg as much as they are making members of this forum, request, PM or beg them for some attention and regulatory action on this forum! Why such (pardon me) double standards in regard to Satyamev Jayate forum?!
Sorry I-F. After seeing what happened all these months in Satyamev Jayate forum, I am sure I won't be coming to I-F again. Maybe it's meant to encourage gossip only. Or maybe it's only love stories or song-dance shows which deserve mods and proper attention and not a show like SJ.
Satyamev Jayate forum had a few active members to begin with, later members grew, but then again members stopped being active. I-F team did not take solid action on trouble makers. Probably if your team had taken action against silly personal life gossip posts and tried maintaining the forum with articles, banners, info etc. then members would have remained active too. But if team is not there in first place, how will any member remain interested for long?
In end, do LOCK my thread or warn me WITHOUT reading my post or tell me to ''understand''. And do allow threads on AK's personal life or salary run into multiple pages. đ Or allow more threads on Aamir's pay to come up every week!đˇ
Wah tumhara forum! Satyamev Jayate ko Gossipmev Jayate bana ke rakh diya!
