So, is IF only for glorifying these "celebrities"??? is it only to show these celebs "OMG.. you are soo hott... i know exactly when you blinked, i woke up and saw your face, my life is fullfilled"??

I agree, if language is used badly, then people have a cause for complain, but i feel, certain members come, looking for trouble and use the report button that stifles discussion...
i think, these celebs CAN be "bashed" why the heck NOT??? the minute they put themselves in the poublic eye, they get scrutinized, be it Jennifer winget, KSG or OBAMA... thats the way the whole world works... if the celebs and their fans cant handle it, whose fault is that??? public eye= scrutiny and IT will COME in ALL forms...
also, i do think, IF is the WORST place for discussion... fans come along and take a general discussion so personally, it antagonizes the other party...
i DONT get why, fans come sniffing their celebs and take offense... can you SHUT the whole world up?NO
I think, if anything, "swear" words can be edited out by mods..the only thing i care for is if swearing at members... barring that, members on a virtual forum shoould be seasoned enough to take anything thrown at them..
any rules invented to stifle discussion beats the point of a virtual FORUM...


Hi.

I understand your point and I stand by it too. People should be allowed to have and express an opinion but my point is that should the expression of the said opinion not follow any rules of decorum?

Should they be allowed to abuse and call people 's**ts', 'wh**es', 'man-wh**es' etc? They can express their opinion in a civil manner, they dont have to go all out on a public forum.

Secondly, the issue here is also the IF rules which specify certain things and these people are taking liberty with that...if IF changes its rule then its a different matter altogether but till the time the rules are there, they should be followed and partiality and biased nature should not be allowed.

Anyway, thanks for responding and putting forward your point in a civil manner...civility can make good discussions and prevent them from turning into arguments.

Cheers

Rae

Good. :)

But thats only one very small action...we demand a wider and more stringent action which ensures that no one indulges in such behaviour again. :)


Exactly,i agree with you on this:(

Ok so you are ok with the Disgusting abuses hurled on somebody?
Calling somebody a Bitch/wh**e is okay with you?
For your Kindest information IF Rules dosn't permit doing that...😊
And it is a public forum b4 you name it as a virtual forum so it is important for people to stay in there limits or rather the boundary set for them!

I'll say she made it pretty clear that she's against any kind of swear words being used on the forum.

Okay...I waited long enough to see if anyone responds...which obviously didnt happen.

I know that we have got a couple of responses but these responses, I am sorry to say, only tell me the IF policy on bashing and abusing but my post is not about that.

My post is about the implementation of those policies and my questions pertain to that. I want to know what stringent action if IF planning to take against those who break its rules almost everyday...

^ Thats exactly what i was gonna say Rae.
The members who bashed in that CC arent new bashers.. most of them are REGULAR bashers! So warnings etc wont help. In this case, I think something else should be done with those members cuz trust me... those people will never stop bashing. Its continious bashing for them..
They close the CC and tell the members the "RULES" and then they forget about the MAIN issue and that those members actually broke the rules! Those members deserve to be banned. I understand that banning is your last option and if those people were bashing for the first time then even I would say not to ban them but like I mentioned earlier, most of the members ARE REGULAR BASHERS. They've been bashing for a long time and still no proper ACTION? This is really frustrating!
