Hello Vijay & Everyone else

Since the major issue seems to be fair unbiased moderation ,i have a suggestion how about trying out something like a split DT where 50% of the team is nominated by the process in place already while the other 50 % is nominated and selected by the forum members themselves in a fully democratic way (this can be done once the forum is fully active say in 3 months time since the opening ).So the result would be a DT which hopefully has the right mix of people !

Dont know if it makes sense but at least it could be a middle way out which hopefully pleases all !

edited:-May be the GM's or a panel of MODS can do the short listing 😳.from the nominations sent in and the short listed ones go through for the final voting stage .I mean the idea can be worked around to make it as flawless as possible😳

Regards
Pooja

Pooja ur idea sounds good but there are flaws in members elected mods process. Not every member should be allowed to take part in the nomination, as a fangirl is going to end up as moderator, just because she has too many friends liking her POV earlier.

There need to be certain clauses for members who are thrown in for the member nomination process, some thing may be like Super Mods or other section mods looking at the short list before going in for a member voting process.

...and you defend them vijay? 🤣 Jesus. Some people need to tone down their fangirl-iness and get a reality check. As much as you falsely pleasurize yourself, the guy is hardly known outside India Forums. Some 35-40 fangirls making up 10000 fan population of BS(obviously with a little help from MIDs) speak volumes of his popularity.

I've to start putting on my fangirl-proof specs I guess. 😎

I just clicked the link and what on earth was this girl thinking while writing that? I honestly have no words to express my disappointment after reading her comment. I hope something is done about that.

Hope Vijay Sir isnt going to give us Dhokha like BS...hope he stick to his words n take rigorous steps to make this forum clean whre sanity prevails...nt pankhagiri




This comment was posted by the same TM who made that outrageous Holocaust remark.

I wonder why she never moral-policed Barun fans who wished death upon his wife, abused Gul and her husband, and retorted to personal attacks on the non-fans.

Hello Vijay,

Firstly thanks for your reply to my post in one of the earlier threads. Unfortunately before I got to respond to it, the thread was closed.

I'm not going to ask for the closure of any forum or the ranking system. Having worked in Online Marketing, I understand that those are the kind of things that increase the 'stickiness' of your website.

All I would request is the even, standard application of all rules and policies across the board. What is good for the goose should be good for the gander too. The rights of your users are as important as those of the celebrities. The feelings of the so called 'bashers' or 'hate-mongers' are as important as those of the fans. This is only possible with unbiased moderation.

I hope to continue seeing this website, for what it stands, 'a forum,' where both positive and negative opinions are welcome.

Thanks for speaking to us.

Regards
NB

You know, leaving it for 'forum' members to decide would probably not work for us. It's no secret that these fangirls are the majority and it's quite foreseeable that only the fangirls would end up on the DTs.(Much like how it works now) Wouldn't make a difference would it?

What I suggest is selection of ONE from each side. For example if the fangirls decide to appoint their Minu or Mandy 'Dii' , you, Aahana, Sano88 or Deepz should represent the non-fans on the DT. Might level out the things.

PS whistle-blowing should be encouraged. So if for example RD, a cool viewbie thinks that fangirls Minuu/Resham or Mandy are trying to impair her judgment just because they're 'virtually' senior to her, RD should have the right to take up the matters to Vijay himself!

Hi everyone,

I don't have too much time on my hands, but I'd like to throw in two cents.

1. No name calling for any human being. Be it a celeb or a member, ban all forms of name calling. A straight increase in WL the moment someone is found abusing ANY human being.

2. No bringing in issues from other websites and using them to abuse members on IF. Increase WLs for members who do that. My friends and I were stalked on twitter and abused on IF cause we didn't agree to the views of some "fans".

3. About DTs: I know coolbies are nominated based on their contributions to the forum through WUs or other admin related work. Promote the coolbies to viewbies/mods based on the work they do. A lot of us spend time reporting topics and passing on links to higher mods. Let the ENTIRE panel of DT come into the picture when people have to be promoted to VB/Mods status so even if say one or two members are trying to promote friends, there can be some amount of fairness from the rest of the DT who doesn't know the friend.

4. For forums which are handled entirely by coolbies, please let the members know that their direct PoC are the coolbies. The CMs are too busy to attend to all requests; and mostly coolbies know their stuff. It is disheartening to see people trash some coolbies when they're trying to do their work. Like everyone knows, we're not being paid to scour through topics and do WUs. We have our personal lives too, and we take time out from these to help manage IF.

And that's all from my side.

Regards,

Ritchelle

yep that could be a good start 😉 Its never going to be 100% perfect, still we could give it a try, no harm in that.

But giving the voting process back to the members is something I'm not really comfortable with, process needs to be dealt with the GM's or panel of mods who are not associated with the forum. These mods should be set on a trial basis, if they do good job, the could be continued else new ones could be tried out.
