U r absolutely right, we r all adults here and we r not kids so as to somebody has to regulate us on what to do and what not to do I can't force my 5 years old to have a certain opinion abt a character bcz I like that character... Nowadays I find Khushi's character extremely infuriating purely bcz of the fact that she is gonna bring Shyam back in to the house... I mean I simply fail to understand that words like honour and dignity doesn't exist in Khushi's book... For me there is a vast difference between selflessness and shamelessness and after bringing Shyam back Khushi will fall into the second category for me at least but u r free to have a different opinion... I am not bashing Khushi here but I am merely stating a fact that if a girl can't have a sense of dignity and pride in herself then sorry for me she is not a respectable person.

I have stopped watching the show but icons on this forum to talk to u guys, to have a healthy debate on different aspects of a character but I don't somebody to tell me that what to say or what not to say... I think at 37 years of age I know how to behave myself and how to converse "decently" on a public forum.

I put this up on the last thread for Saraa, in response to her wish of knowing what exactly our problem is.

1.This is supposed to be a forum. Oxford definition of a forum is- a place where people exchange their ideas and opinions. This is NOT a fan club.so why such a biased approach?

2.Anjali is NOT Daljeet. We are expected to relax because the show is just fiction but posts are being censored since a fictional character gets bashed?

3.We are NOT discussing what Daljeet should have worn on her 20^th birthday! We are discussing her actual negotiations with the production house, which she herself made well know through an interview and which had drastic repercussions on the show. So why can't that be discussed?

4.Drooling over a fictional character is done. Flooding the forum with various posts on Barun's anatomy research is done. But criticizing Anjali is not?

5.WHO has the right to stop us from drawing our personal conclusions on which character is negative and which one is not. If X finds Anjali a villain, that is X's freedom of opinion.

I personally am amply aware of various posts proliferating, which have gone to the extent of abusing Daljeet ,touching some very personal aspects of her life. Moderators are more than justified in shutting them down. But what if the discussion is in direct relation to the show?

Lastly,

9 year olds might be seriously disturbed after reading Anjali is negative. They will not be disturbed to read some shocking, disturbing and simply horrifying fictional work out here which made someone like me, double the age, just wish to puke in disgust hardly a day ago?

That is the SLIPPERY SLOPE!!! You dont start with "what is acceptable" when there is no such code -- it will never get done.

That is the reason for "acceptance" and "Tolerance" in a civilized society. Like I said before, we accept everyone and we tolerate what we dont like.

If you go around chopping off whatever doesnt meet your standards, you are TYRANT. That is what the current situation is -- people are pissed so they blow off some steam -- that doesnt mean that they can be given warnings!!! Who the hell are these people to warn me or anyone for that matter about what they think and want to say?

This policing can only result in CHAOS or people just walking away because there is a ton of sites on the web where people can say whatever they want. Actually Nisha our resident Indian Entrepreneur should start a site like that -- and the people here can start thinking about "competition" then.

Maverick I completely agree with wat u r saying. Actually my comment abt definitions was just a observation and not a justification. I genuinely believe if a common acceptable limit is set thru dialogue instead of"10 rules to follow" the problem will reduce. Personally what I follow is ignore stuff I dislike.

Khushi has edited her post which gives a clearer explaination, criticism is allowed as long as lines are not crossed.[quote=khushix] We would like to clarify that nowhere did we mention that criticizing Daljeet/Anjali isn't allowed nor are we asking members to only write positive stuffs about her. Criticizing and bashing are two different things. Criticism for any character, actor and the show is allowed. We have always stressed that you are free to express your views as long it doesn't cross the line. But some have gone too far by abusing her, cursing her to die, wishes she miscarries in real life when she gets pregnant, and all sorts of abusive comments and names given to her and the character. That is just unacceptable. (Poojali & other names were never objected in this forum nor are we objecting it now. As long as they are not offensive, they are allowed. And the same goes for the other characters as well). We are not stopping anyone from discussing about the negotiation issue as that was made public so we understand where everyone is coming from. But as said, whatever negotiation she had, this does not give us the right to bash and abuse her. And this isn't just about DB, any other actor/actress be it SI, BS, KG, AD, AM, and all others, being bashed is not allowed. Im sure no one would like to see their favorites being abused like this.
