Yup I agree with u
Freedom of expression is not equal to bashing
But if someone says that she likes sahil's kavya's or rajat's etc character I think they should be free to do so.
But abusing a character or an actor is not freedom of speech.

Good post Sam. I agree with whatever you have said.



Freedom of expression should not be used as a cover to spew whatever rubbish that comes to mind. And if you do do it that way remember the other person can do the same thing as well. Freedom of speech shouldn't make you an insensitive person or you are no better than the person you are bashing.


Thanks Lanny ! I really want my old forum back 😭where freedom of expression was not an excuse to basically make any post you want to with the intent of hurting and instigating ! I was enthusiastically making posts last week cause of the track and awesome performances we were getting but the atmosphere in the forum is really off putting ! I wanted to post this week also but no motivation thanks to the negativity!

Freedom of expression is a fantastic concept up until the point it doesn't turn caustic and instigates one into taking an adverse action. Also there is no need to be nitty-gritty about things one doesn't agree to as it only leads to a surfacing tension. No two people are alike and so is their thinking...but while validating a point one must never cross the limits of decency. That is the basic thumb rule people seem to be forgetting!


A/N: I rarely visit this place and have only a handful of friends here...and no our thoughts don't match up but it doesn't make them any less of my friend. I think this one thing can be tapped by everyone. And TM you are preachy at all, you are stating plain facts and if anyone disagrees they can do so but politely!

The things you posted in bold are the things that are not being followed ,people are being caustic and mean to each other and politeness is a forgotten concept here ! Posts are just put up for the sake of instigating fights while the TM and her friends who thought of the prank sit back and have popcorn and enjoy the entertainment and when things get to heated start screaming freedom of expression !!!

I do get it Sam. Why do you think so many members are MIA?🥱 Yaha aake mood kaun barbaad kare!

But dont let the negativity get to you. If you have some ideas, some nice posts to make do make it & I say bury all the negative & provocative posts by positive ones. People really need to stop replying to the established negative nancies of this forum & concentrate their energies on the positive stuff😳 So go on ahead & fill up the forum with as many posts as you like...we are always here to support you & join in the fun 🤗 Lets get the forum back to its good old days

Sam 🤗

Great post and it's not preachy or moral policing at all IMO- just genuine and heartfelt. I used to adore being on this forum as everyone knows but now I dread it. Exactly right, freedom of expression is definitely a privilege but with it comes some acceptance that it's a concept that applies to those with a contrary opinion to yours too. I can literally now spot the topics designed specifically to instigate and create issues and then people hide behind the "Maine kya kiya?" facade but as you say, the reaction is proportionate to the action.

xoxo

Thanks shru 🤗And exactly even i can spot such topics now just by topic name and the TM ,so I wish people would just stop reacting to such posts !

Thankyou for agreeing with me ! Yes I agree no one deserves to be bashed for liking certain characters but even you have to agree that certain posts are made to instigate so when someone goes and agrees with that TM it will automatically cause fights ! So people should be aware and smart about the intent behind that post before commenting there I feel ! And freedom of speech always comes with certain responsibility ,when you know certain topics will cause bad feelings it is better to be diplomatic as you can during those times !
