Thank you Mary for bringing this up. I myself, used to come online to India forums until a few of my favourite shows ended a while back. I really had no intention of resurfacing, and when I did, it was all because of Saraswatichandra. So when I see all this unnecessary judgement and I think, harassment as well, I get upset because this is really not the India Forums I remember.
Even if the show is not up to par as some would like it to be, there is a frustration thread/critic corner. People really need to understand that creating hurtful and hateful topics and posting hurtful and hateful things are not only a waste of time, but disrespectful to the people around them. If you have a problem, there are many ways of expressing your concern in a positive, meaningful way. Posting hateful things is not an expression of concern. It is an expression of, to the simplest degree, hate. And it is unacceptable.
I agree, also, that the forum is getting inactive. Hats off to the people able to create topics (I myself, completely fail in this matter as I'm more of a shy commenter, and literally have no idea what to say half of the time) I guess the only way we can keep this forum alive is continuing to comment (by saying actual meaningful things, rather than expressing hate) and do what you're doing! I, myself, will try my hardest to create a meaningful topic. I promise!
Hats off to everyone who is keeping this forum alive! 🤗
