agree, admins need to look into this matter. there is aclear case of manipulation here. Anyone following the rankings will know there is some golmaal in the viewpoints.
I request admins to either look into this matter or consider restricting number of viewpoints per user just like comments so that there is no chance of manipulation.

Please make the rules of how various categories of points are calculated clear and open. So, there is less doubt and finger pointing. I am specially puzzled to know about how fan points are calculated.
Thank you in advance for a comprehensive reply.

Thanks ishq. I want to know how everything is calculated including buzz, comments, viewpoints and fans. There should be transparancy in this whole ranking business.. also checks in place in order that no one can manipulate any of these by foul means

Excellent post! Thanks TM
Really want to know how fan points are calculated.
Also been reading some fussing posts about views not being fair and request to restrict views per user per day...total nonsense.
that's what I work hard for to make sure my celebrity gets top view points
The ranking is fair, only need some details of how it works.

actually question on view points is always there..and I don't think its nonsense..I have seen ppl raising questions when Barun got maximum points for views and when DD got, now SI is getting, tomorrow someone else will get it...and each fan group complained when other one got maximum points..and it will continue to happen..till this system is there...the other day when Barun's rank was one bcoz of buzz, I saw a lot of complaining about buzz that buzz shouldn't be there..but the same ppl forget that question when their fav gets to top bcoz of buzz..

and why cant we have a restriction on views when there is a restriction for comments..if they cant have it, as you said, we at least deserve an explanation..

Yeah of course others will find the ranking fair since their fav is getting full view points 😆 And can we stick to the topic? We need an answer soon about that weird view section.

This merged topic is going to get messy but good that we are asking for clarity and explanations. An increase in views can be addressed by fans deciding to concentrate on one area of the rankings...I want to understand how talking about things not related to the celebrity gets activity points.
I've heard a lot of people are also questioning buzz and to be fair I think most fan groups do question it when other celebrities get it and make fun of other fan bases when their favorite ranks top because of buzz...some fan bases make fun of others when their favorite doesn't rank on top even when they do get buzz.
The thing though is that buzz is generally related to a working actor and their work...it's about current news associated with that celebrity. It makes far more sense for buzz points to be included in celebrity ranking than chat clubs or posts that have nothing to do with that celebrity.
If fan activity points are given on the basis of fans insulting celebrities or idle chit chat in chat clubs then it seriously reflects badly on the image of IF as a professional entity.

I might b wrong here, but there was a thread in IF when all actors in top 4 were working and someone made a post with comparison of buzz articles each one got and there was a lot of difference between each one of them..in fact some actors get more articles when they are not working.. and if we keep our liking or disliking these actors aside, we will mostly see the situations where we get buzz and the competition is higher..I always saw that as a mechanism IF used to attract more activity..

Hi Najmeen,
This topic was made for viewpoints and Some other members of different fangroups have made a topic on Fan Points . You have merged both too.It will be fair to both set of fans if these two threads can be differentiated or if any of DT or Vijay wants to reply -it will be clear to them what sort of questions people have for each topic.
Thanks

I was totally surprised with so many pages and then realized its merged..totally confusing..

Lol what? So if a celeb is not on tv currently it means he shouldn't get fan points. No offense but this is nonsense. If a celeb is not doing any tv shows that doesn't mean he doesn't have fans. And having the max fan points say it all :P
