FREEDOM OF SPEECH ?? - Page 3

I don't know if i can post this topic, since it is related to this forum, felt i should.

The mods can close it if they want.

Just want to set a few things right.

I got an abusive PM from someone a couple of days ago.

I really don't know why. Am not going to post it here.

I did send it to the mod and did not get any reply. as expected.

I am no way connected to anyone on the forum or using a MID.

Dabulls and me are not the same person, though someone is under a delusion about it. We do not live in the same country forget being in the same continent.

Someone made a new ID and pretended it was me and went on a abusing spree.

If writing what one feels and sees and hears on a show on this forum is wrong and deserves abuses of the vilest kind, where is the freedom of speech?

It neither exists in India or on this forum.

people are not allowed to criticise or say a negative comment about any of the singers or judges or host or anything.

Why not have a permanent appreciation thread for the whole forum?😳

A word of criticism and we have to put up with abuses which a normal person would cringe to utter in private ,leave alone writing it on a public forum.

It is hurtful and demeaning to the person it is intended for and also to the person writing it. So much hate and anger does not augur well for anyone.😭😭😭

Hope we can soon have a forum where people can write freely and criticism can be taken sportingly and humour of any kind can be taken in the right spirit.

Please ignore this post if you feel abusive.

Peace out.😊

Firstly, i love your signature! 😃 It's one of my favorite quotes about music.I totally agree with you about the need for free speech (for everyone, not just the people that one may agree with.) I think some people forget that, at the end of the day, we are just discussing a tv show. Most of us probably don't know these singers personally and these singers probably are too busy performing and making a niche for themselves in the industry to worry about what is posted here. Sometimes, people take these shows so seriously and write anything against a contestant they don't like or they pick a favorite and personally attack other singers or forum members. If you like a singer, that's great, post about how awesome they are. If you dislike a singer and have to share that feeling, remember that they have fans here and if you have to critizize, try not to put them down. It's ok to say you don't like something but remember most likely someone else loves what you don't so go easy.

Thanks MAM for this topic...As I have left this section...But seeing this topic I wanted to say something..

Appreciate your, JT Veer ji and Tulips posts. I am so sorry along with you all Mohini , VJ and Ravjot has been attacked-bashed too..😳

MAM and I are not same people with MID...I do not have any other ids...I am not coward where I have to create MID to write candidly.. I have been IF member since 2005..Its been 7+ yrs and nothing ever has make me leave IF or will not do it just because someone has decided to threaten me..

I have been abused by these MIDs in past 2-3 yrs in II and SRGMP sections and do not know why or what I personally have done to them..I thought forum is for everyone to post their candid views..But I guess not..😳

A woman-Grand mother, mother does not deserve to be attacked by someone in this manner...VJ who is young enough to be my son has been called many names along with JT veerji too linking us in very bad way..I find these comments not only cruel, rude but very hurtful..

Not only I have been abused-attacked in this section by various topics-posts by creating some MIDs...Whoever it is pls stop..

Besides this topic I have received several abusive PMs & scrap with same language...Threatening me with death, childless...Deleting PMs or blocking those ID is not appreciated by these MIDs...

I dont get scared by bullies but for the forum decorum's sake I have decided to leave this section as there are young kids around...People dont feel like coming due to offensive language..

Lastly My request to mods-admin Vijay B or Priya.nair is to have a fix in the system that as soon as MID is created it links to the orig id...Once MID is banned orig ID must be treated with strictness..

Why should good members have to suffer due to someone out there who is just spending time spewing poison in harassing innocent people..

I am a music lover and I support talent..No one is related to me..I cant write anyone's future or can ruin anyone's furture..

Finally I demand an apology from whoever this person is for making my life hell and others by abusing in the worst way possible...If not than pls leave me alone...I have nothing against anyone and I want to be left alone.

Thanks MAM again for the topic..Appreciate everyone's support..

Mods pls keep the topic open and hope Vijay B reads it too..

I remember reading utter filth once directed against Varsha and having reported it and also having responded to it knowing how futile the exercise. But I did it because it was sheer filth and venom and I really needed to vent out my feelings.

Thank you all a lot for writing on this thread and taking a strong resolve to do what is right by everyone and freely express you views and ideas.

This is called emotional abuse. It hurts people the worst. Some people may be very sensitive to criticism and end up with their own Freedom to curse.

OMG!! This is shocking!!

Now a days I stay away from the forum. Though music still runs in my vein there are several reasons behind this.
