First of all, thank you for this post dear..I hav been just waiting to vent out a few things..sorry if it doesn't make sense..😊
Yes, the forum seems a quite inactive...and I think mostly becoz mainly young members are having their exams, and many employed ones like me still get some time to peep in after the epi and spend a few hours...
As someone said earlier..poeple hav a life outside IF too, so each and every member stays active in the forum based on their timings.
I hope everyone must be knowing what the pink team in our forum..is...we try to make the posts pink (25 comments or 250 views)...and I was told that a pink post is taken into consideration for forum ranking..
Of late, there have been some accusations that there is dirty politics in SC forum that the pink team members are spamming the posts and they reply or comment in a few of their favorite ones' posts..
coming to posts...
There are posts which automatically attract viewers and become pink in a few seconds..so no need of spamming.. (lots guys...not putting names...since the list is very long..😊)
There are some posts made only with the intention of meeting the given post-per-day target (like mine...I try to tickle everyone in the name of fun posts..😉)..
In cases where a post is not getting expected response, it is not liked by everyone and ends up with a few comments, and only when the post-maker has no issues, we the pink team try to make it pink by commenting repeatedly..( i wont say spamming)...and hav some active discussion and make it pink..
I am not saying, its only bcoz of pink team the forum is active..but we try to take the liberty in only such posts...where the post-makers hav to objection...
We the pink team members, dont gain anything personally at the end of the day other than we are glad the forum had been active (seriously...pink team is not sponsored by IF.😉..)
There are many members who feel that no one replies or likes their post..It happens. Even very good anaylysis or critics or sometimes a good OS...is not always appreciated. Even after some 100 views we can see 5 to 10 likes and 10 comments (just an example. and 50% credit to silent readers...)..and that is where the pink team gets into action and try to make a post pink (honestly..i still donno how the ranking system works😊..)
I would request all silent readers just to hit like...(absolutely...no harm in that..) and in post where info is shared..pls just type...3 letters ..TFS..that wud do...and in case u liked the post but still dont want to comment or say anything..please put an emoticon...automatically the post becomes pink and there is no need to spam it and make it pink..
uff..enough..hope i made some sense...
no offence..just wanted to say...😊
Did I stik to the topic...😉 ??
