I dont think I've ever been more flattered, more touched or more ashamed of myself, all at the same time! I truly am so honored that you thought my contributions helped you feel anything at all in the forum, TM, and I have to admit, I have stayed away (reading posts now and then, but mostly checking in on PMs) because of the negativity which was pretty vivid for the past few weeks.


Can I tell you how proud I am you included me in your list? Because I am! I think I'll say some things I normally would have kept quiet about, just because if even one person who reads this then realizes it pays to be less negative, I will have done something good for myself tonight.This was the first forum after IPKKND that truly made me feel good about posting, Its been a safe and nurturing environment.


When anyone posts, there will be a few open comments on the thread--but behind the scenes, there are a LOT of PMs where people can be more blatant. Either sweeter and more private, or...meaner, more painful. A comment on the open forum is different from PMs posters can get, and negative PMs can really hurt. A lot of us (serialjunkie, princesssunara and naach basanti, for example) --are from the older forum, where things got ugly real fast, onscreen and online.I dont speak for them but for myself when I say that I am once bitten, twice shy. Readers who've read my past fiction know I am very susceptible to negative stuff even if I try to stay away from it. It totally zaps my writing. I DONT mean criticism or discussion of my analysis, or comments on my writing, which I LIVE for. I mean nasty little PMs asking me to stop writing since I am butchering the character, or a snide comment saying that I should just stop watching if I hate xyz so much. I saw the trend before on IPKKND and that was horrible, so this time, seeing a very mild version of that here made me over sensitive, perhaps.


BUT, TM, YOU are RIGHT. You are absolutely goddamn right. You have beautifully and poignantly reminded me that its my forum too, not just the negative people who react so stupidly to rational discourse. You people are my friends too, what the hell am I doing, acting pricey and staying away and missing you lot? I am staying away from updating, and from posting and all ALL THE WHILE I am MISSING you people! I think I have over-reacted, in staying away and just choosing to go silent.

My dear, you have given me a shot in the arm, and I will make a conscious effort to be more present post, update the stories and interact with my friends, because hell--MY friends, MY forum, MY Rangrasiya!

Love,

Navin

Hiral Baisa thank you for making the post to encourage all the star writers to return and post on RR forum!!👏👏 Great to see some of them responding to the love shown to them through your lovely post, hoping others return too!! 😃

Beautiful post baisa. I too miss those days of excitement. wish everyone returns and we get our old wonderful forum back.

Thanks for taking the initiative and voicing out the current problem in the forum. Completely agree with you and your post made me a little emotional. I noticed that a lot of talented writers left recently but did not dare to write about it. Kudos to you for your courage. I wish and pray that after reading your post, those writers will return back and make the forum a happy place again
🤗

Thank you sweetheart... You broke my heart... 😭😭... Kuch to kar Sakte hai naa??

I am honestly very very touched reading this post and replies. Thanks you so much for the sweet and wonderful things many of u have told. 🤗

I honestly loved this forum, and I loved this show for many months.. for Sanaya, for Paro and PaRud and for the lovely people I met here.

About 2 months back things changed. Due to 2 people it started out. And till now due to their triggered activities this forum has nose dived and broken to pieces. 😭
And one thing Navin said I will agree. I am from old IPK forum, I watched that place I loved more than life itself falling apart. I left there too. I stopped posting and simply became a silent member. And this time.. honestly I made sure I kept my heart from getting entangled with another show and another forum. Because as Navin said, once bitten twice shy, in my case ten times shy. Last time it almost killed me and I was careful this time around. And when the traces of trouble appeared and when every day coming to this place instead of making me happy started making me depressed and angry I quietly left.
Because I don't want to fight, I hate fighting on IF. I have loved and been a part of IF for 7 long years from the days I was a child who was going to school. And this has been my home away from home. And I come here because it made me happy. And it no longer does it for me. It makes me unhappy.

So I am really really sorry, but if I post its going to be few and far less. I will be around once in a while. But until this forum stops its negativity - and I don't mean constructive criticism of what is wrong with the show. Which is what NB did and was attacked for.
But until the bunch of people who make it their life's mission to diss 1 character night after night and glorify 1 person through mud slinging at the other, I am done.

I love all of u guys who made this place beautiful. But I really cannot take this negativity anymore without letting it making me sad. There were many days I left here in tears after reading posts and seeing what it was becoming. And when online negativity spills in to real life that is the time to call it quits. :((
And that is what I have done.

Once again I am deeply touched u guys wrote all of that. And I am truly grateful, I will try for u guys, but no promises until this place stops the said form of negativity.
I will always be there for Sanaya. I will always watch her show. So I am not deserting her or her show, I am there for her on both FB and twitter which is million times more positive and happy places to be.

Thank you once again Hiral for that amazing post 🤗

Yes the disappearance or less posting of many writers here is ofcourse noticed by everybody.
I try to be all for freedom of expression and completely get it when people say they do not like characters who preach too much, many other complaints seem genuine too.But when episode after episode people only have to criticize a character then...yeah it does not always seem genuine.
At the same time retaliating by unnecesarily bashing the beloved character of the person who said things against your fav character isn't required either...like I understand that urge 😆 I used to do it in sanaya's previous to previous show's forum but now I think I am a lot better at posting my real opinions..regardless of others' posts.
But I will feel a bit hypocritical if I be all "oh I hope they return back" when even I do not have the inclination to read all the posts in the forum..it is such a waste of time getting upset because of a fictional show...the time wastage part does not bother me,but the getting upset does 😆 ...always better wasting your time over happy discussions with like minded people in a forum/place that seems more peaceful to you..

Hi there... I think you voiced an opinion a lot of us share. We are all similar and I know for myself also came to IF first for info then got all wrapped up. Good to meet you and hope we hear from you again.

Want this post on the first page so that most of the members can see and understand the pain of the good writers and also the viewers who miss them.
