I ve a doubt ...Whether these posts vanish at one time or in installments... Yesterday IF Stunnerz,today IF Sizzlers,tomo IF Rockerz?


We are doing it in a phased manner. Since the total number of threads we have to scan is over 200 million records.

Hope you come up with good dynamic formula , as post getting lost is really bad and it is discouraging as well , also due to copyright issue the musics in post were deleted too..features which were good in IF are getting reduced and i know one can't do anything

Regards to you too 😆

this is why i'm cribbing a lot about my deleted post! i'm hardly a spammer after being in the forum for almost 4 years with just 1k+ posts to show and now already less than a hundred posts. I just like to join the games more than replying in forums

@bold, Sir Vijay it's better to start from there esp since 2006 members before cleaning out the regular forums


We are only removing the topics / threads which are not of archival value and slowing down our site. You will agree that most of them in the Forum Games forum is like that only and no one will ever visit them again once its closed.

I can cite several examples how few of the members have just spammed these forums.

We want to make things better and to do so we will have to clear these +1 posts so that we can improve the content quality score of our forums.

Vijay sir, I'm Sara and I want to tell you that I am deeply disappointed. Me have taken 35oo posts. I find that a lot. There is a reference forum games. I have never been in this forum.
I agree that innovation should be introduced, but agrees that it should introduce changes that are not to the detriment of members. You could make to these forums you play or vote for some series confine say 5 posts a day or something you've done or simply that these posts do not count. Here's how all of us threw in a lot of thinking and I feel great shame for not more someone who I was until yesterday, I beg you to rethink about what you have done and give us back our posts.
Greeting

I dont know how others are liking it but its a very unhealthy and unnecessary step for members who came across a long way to achieve their current IF rank...and ofcourse time wasting for development team too...

There are creation galleries,vm galleries,ff threads,chat threads...people comment on them taking out time from their precious routines and in return why the thread author cant say a simple thank you to them out of gratitude...hitting a like and staying silent is like you read their comment and dont care about it at all...members appreciate your work and you are behaving so ignorant that you cant write a word to them...why should they comment at all then???... in my opinion atleast they deserve a thanks for their support and it wont harm anyone around...

IF is already facing a lot of other challenges which needs to be addressed first instead of taking steps which will only reduce the no. of members and their interest in the site...they wont post...wont comment fearing it may get removed too...

Instead of chopping down threads why IF team dont look after things like:

1.No moderators available right now???...members keep sending pms to multiple moderators for months and months but not get a single reply...how long one can wait to get permission for their pending threads...sorry but in the hour of need even you dont reply back vijay sir...my personal experience...then tell us whom to contact for our problems...

2.There are happening personal wars between fandoms in multiple forums to the extreme level and no one is there to take notice...even after repeated reporting no one takes action...

3.Many forums are totally lawaris...mods tu door ki baat hai they dont even have a chaska meter rating for them...so they never get a chance to come up in the list and no one bothers to visit those forums...only the forum of famous shows get the needed attention...

4.Why cant we have a number list for our buddies so that one can automatically select 50 members while sending a pm...why we have to count fifty each time when we pm multiple people at once...

5.Why one member blocking you affects your whole pm list...why we have to send hundreds of pms separately to trace out which member in the pm list is a troublemaker...

6.Threads automatically get locked up after 3 months...may be the person is having some other important things going on in life and cant be active on the thread at the time...but when after many months or may be years they want to resume their work...their threads no longer remain available to them...and if the poor member requests moderators to open them then he/she will have to wait like forever because no one is gonna reply back...as they themselves are not available...

7.No one knows that luckily which mod is online at a particular time or not...members have no clue whom to contact in any urgent situation...because lots of people dont know moderators by their usernames...so why cant we have some sort of attendance page or thread showing which particular moderator is active at a particular time...it will make the life of members much easier...

8.People quote comments like millions of time filling the page with one or two meaningful things in it rest useless stuff then cant the quoting be limited to 3 to 4 times...

9.Whats wrong with uploading profile pic...even after uploading it keeps on showing your old pic and you cant crop the new one...

10.Sometimes you log in to your account with the correct username and password and it keeps showing not registered...it happens very often...

11.We keep on posting our suggestions in suggestion section but when we will get a solution...I literally love that mod ''BilliCat'' managing the section she is a sweetheart...do her work honestly and regularly...reads all posts and closes them always with a line that the matter will be looked into by higher team members but what next...again your problem never gets sorted out...because higher members are again not there...

These are just a few things from the list ...many more are there to be considered but right now instead of degrading the member's morale by deleting their posts I think the things mentioned above should be sorted out...

I have always loved IF ,its like a second home to me...feels great to be here...but cant bear it turning out into a jail with such rules and steps...if having issues with spammers warn them...ban them but dont make everyone else suffer...thats not fair...

My honest thoughts
Thank you

I agree with your point Sara...deleting the posts thinking they are not needed might be development team's view but not member's...many comments can be meaningful for the member only...but them getting deleted because a thank you was detected in them wont be fair...many of posts on my threads hold emotional value for me...I sometimes re-read them because they were from my friends not active here anymore...and I will feel deeply depressed if they get removed from my threads because of a thank you in them...

Sir, i understand what you're implying. I'm aware there's a lot of threads in the games forum and a few of us regular players there that it takes a long time for one thread to be done. And it happens that if no one replies on the thread, same last poster would post again and again, so why not prevent that from happening rather than deleting all? I know that your goal is to lighten the load of the site but deleting threads, even if of no reference value, is equivalent to starting all over for a far and between poster like me. What are the threads there for if we won't reply? Limiting successive post, i think is better rather than deleting a whole thread jsut because it is locked/done.

*Thanks for replying..
