I remember in my old acct I wasn't very active because i was honestly pretty shy back then and I didn't really come on except for MJHT WUs
but what I noticed on that forum was actually kinda scary O.o
you would see some people saying Maynak and Nupur is better than SaJan, SaJan should be booted from the show etc etc
And a lot celeb hating from people I see now priding themselves on loving a sole celebrity

Yes freedom of speech does come wt responsibility but I don't find name calling being irresponsible. Like how many times have you made a "codename" for a person you didn't like or smth like that. That's basically what's happening here- calling Sobti Soaptea isn't that bad. Honestly yes some bashing did happen but still people bring up the name calling like it's the biggest issue

Something good coming out of our freedom of speech. πŸ‘πŸΌ

Only if we had more members like you. I for sure cannot respect a two timer or a person who 'encourages' his fans to abuse the 'non fans'

leave respect, bt when he encouraged fans to abuse non fans?? its totally fans's decision to abuse or agree, is nt it?😳

and if u dont respect a person, why making post for openly bashing/ asking why others like him?πŸ˜•

use freedeom of speech bt at ur own responsibility...and thinking that others dont get hurt😳

@kulfi exactly...no need to drag his personal life...its a show and discussion should be limited to drama only...no wife/ sex talk


@rd totally agree with u


Freedom of Speech comes with some responsibility and I certainly dont believe in name calling anyone be it a member or a celeb and as much as I believe that a celebrity's professional life should be open to criticism I am not of the view of discussing a celebrity's personal life cause more often than not we are not privy to all the facts and details and such discussions are very open ended and since the celeb is not there to defend themselves their personal life should not be subject to open public discussion


If a celeb's not there to defend himself, will you take the pain of doing so?

More importantly, if a 'personal life' is not meant to be discussed then why posting the articles which discuss about his 'personal life' on first place? It actually makes them open for public discussion. Those who disagree with 'wife/sex' discussion should avoid it themselves instead of moral policing others to act the same.

Yep. I'm quite well aware of Rajeeve Khandwala / Iqbal Khan /Aamna Shariff fangirls back then. I never really followed these shows back in my childhood except for one or two maybe. The good thing back then was how the Dev Team Members did not include (majorly) the fangirls and so a balanced approach was still pretty much evident. The ardent fans were quite a few in number as compared to their virtual population now and so it wasn't as messed up as it is now. At least that's what i've experienced. Nowadays, you're going to find fanatics not just on the the forum but also on the Dev Team of such forums. I a tally do not agree with the logic behind appointing the fangirls as the forum's higher ups. It gives rises to a self review threat and with that, you couldn't obviously expect a fair decision.


sorry but i don't with this Omni. Even if the Dev. Team members claimed to be neutral. they mostly used to abide by the rules set by the stupid fangirls. just a small piece of criticism against rajeev khandala and they bring the house down by reporting it. and others (obviously not fangirls) used to suffer. what difference does it make. they are doing more or less the same thing, the actions are similar. closing topics. raising warning levels, banning members. what change we have seen through these years. absolute nothing. u tell what difference does it make if a member gets banned for having his freedom of speech by a mod who claims to be not the fan of the particular actor or by the mod who is a fan. ban is a ban ! I know because I experienced it.

Maybe you're right. I didn't really experience (and witness) such amount of fangirl-iness back then as I experience today. I do not really vouch on the DT's assurances of being neutral unless I interact with them. However I'm pretty sure that cyber bullying has increased over a period of time and I do not see any progress being made towards it. Members safety should have a priority over stupid 'rankings' 'Chaska Meters'. The celebs give a two hoots about these virtual rankings anyway.

@RD I agree with some of your points however 'with great power, comes greater responsibility'

From an entrepreneur's point of view, you've to do anything to make abnormal profits. However, does this really mean a complete ignorance towards the cyber bullying which goes around here? Instead of being vocal about 'celeb name calling', a better alternative or I say, priority would be to ensure that member rights to privacy and saftey are protected. In the long run, it might otherwise make the going concern assumption inappropriate. I guess short-termist unethical approach is what earns you a living.

the best option to rule out these thing is to make ur own discussion forum. there u can set your own rules, your own ways in which discussion shall be proper. What I had gone through India-forums, it started from a blog than became a totally business oriented website. This requires money for domain purchasing otherwise you should forget the fact that u can bring a change in a desert unless the clouds take a u-turn and it keeps raining to bring a change. PERIOD !

A better option would be to care less what we're preached and instead of sucking up to some virtual beings who take the 'pride' in being the moral police, apply the policy of tit for tat even if it makes you known as a 'hate monger'

Tum nahi samjho gee, Freedom of Speech Kuch Hota Hai πŸ˜‰

It's known as having and sharing your own perspectives instead of being a little girl following daddy's command.

Funny how you act all surprised to see your little moderator buddies ( who give you a freehand in cyber harrassment) being criticised yet you leave no chance to personally bash a fellow member when someone pinpoints your lord's horrible acting skills etc etc. 🐷
