I am going to sound like an old English language teacher when I say this and you guys have to endure it. 😛 I have been on this forum for one day... ONE DAY and I have understood one thing, you people have no sense at all of what the word 'bashing' means! I don't want to come out as rude, but I want to put it in a better manner like any good English teacher would, "Don't use words that you don't understand in a sentence and complicate both your life and mine." Yes, I have heard that and said so myself.

A basher is someone who engages in harsh, accusatory and threatening criticism and is out to hurt others' feelings.

What I see in this forum is two groups of people who love 'Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon' and the whole caste. I have seen a disctinct group gushing over the lead, Arnav and another stating their opinion in a very unaccusatory tone. They are pointing out the hamearsia in Arnav's character or other characters, not bashing or flaming them.

If they said, 'Arnav is an a**.' or maybe, 'they should stop the bucking serial because its crap!'... That would be bashing.

When you study literature and analyze someones character or state their importance in a story do you call it 'bashing'? You simply call it criticising.

I hope this is a English lesson well concieved. Please if you still don't understand and appreciate others' point of view, don't believe that you feel freedom should exist. There are no two groups. You guys are one, and I hope each one of you understand that in time.

Bash away! *shakes head*

"Bashers" get bashed by "non-bashers" for "bashing" because bashing is wrong. I don't get it.

Well said!
You sound like a intelligent young woman making good sense and sadly I realize many of the so called Pleasers are actually bashers in guise except they decide the standards. They have the gall to call others names after indulging in quite a bit of mudslinging themselves In fact the residue still clings to them but preach a holier than thou attitude
We need more level headed young ones like you to get the message across else all these members who do not tolerate another opinion are going to find the outside world really tough

Ah, Thank you! 😳 Yes, I think they are just getting too carried away with the dancing with pompoms attitude. 😛 Quite some words!

Well, you wont get people like me usually... People tend to stay away because I have a smart mouth and I catch them on their shit. 😆 Yeah, they are. From the little that I know, they are going to learn a very hard lesson. 😕

Very well said, my dear. Being an English Honours Graduate myself, I was stunned at the vicious posts towards so-called bashers by the so-called non-bashers who called them the soul of positivity. It boggles my mind to think that they are those crazed fans who are not even reading what they are posting.

True that. They are confusing me with all the confusion! 😲
