New Topics. Before posting a new topic, make sure that no one has posted the same topic (or similar topic as yours)otherwise your topic could be deleted or closed and it will also create unneccesary confusion

Proper Language. Respect everyone?s point of view, opinions, suggestions and ideas. Avoid using offensive or foul language when posting a message. Please maintain a friendly atmosphere and don't create fights or conflicts. If you come across any offensive post or bad language you can pm any of the development team members. the list can be found at this link

Articles from the Net. When posting an article from another site, do give proper credit to it by posting the site name or address. See Tellbuzz rule below.

No Comments. Do NOT post replies or comments under topics, which bear the phrase, ?NO COMMENTS? in its title. As the title suggests, it is not meant to be replied to. If you wish to comment or reply or thank the author, you may PM the author of the post or topic.

Caps Lock. Do not post an entire message in CAPITALS. It implies ?shouting? or emphasis on something and it is not proper.

Emoticons. Do not type a message full of Emoticons alone! Emoticons are used to emphasize how you feel when words alone aren?t enough. They serve as ?add-ons? to your message BUT it doesn?t mean that you are to type a whole line of Emoticons alone, without a single word or phrase (e.g. '😊😊😊')!

Advertisement. You are not to advertise for any particular website or group site in the forum. Advertisements of any form are strictly forbidden at India Forums!

Participation. Everyone is highly encouraged to participate in forum discussions or games to create a lively atmosphere in the forum.

Unrelated topics. please don't post topics that are not related to Bigg Boss. Do not post messages addressed to the stars or crew members either IF is a fan site only. It is not directly associated with the show or its actors. Your message would not get conveyed to them!

Spamming: Do not spam the forum with same topics or spam any topic. Spamming might lead to raise in warning level. Spamming is is just posting a smiley in a topic, or similar.

'Thank You' Button -Use the button in posts whenever you want to say Thank You. NO need to post a Thank You comment, when just saying Thank You. Same with 'tfs' and thnxs 4 sharing.

Contests- If you want to start a contest of any kind please contact the Bigg Boss Dev Team, this is so that we know that what contests are going on, and when they will finish, so they do not go on for too long and are conducted in a fair way.

Input from Raj5000

Got a reminder from high command on this rule in particular.

Spamming: Do not spam the forum with same topics or spam any topic. Spamming might lead to raise in warning level. Spamming is is just posting a smiley in a topic, or similar.

**********************************************************

Friends,

As you all know that India Forums just launched our own news hub, and with the launch of IF Telly Buzz we are now in direct competition with Telly Chakkar and Indian Television.

So please ensure that the articles from the above 2 sites are not posted on our forum from now on, as this is a request straight from Vijay (the site admin).

All Articles from these two sites, will be trashed, without any notice.

Also please be reminded to provide links for all articles that are posted from other websites.

REMINDER - To all members who post TB Articles, it is requirement of Telly Buzz team that you do no post article in full, as then it makes TB Articles and effort go to waste, and you are meant to discuss articles in comment section there too, as they are meant to be locked on forum.

Thanks,
IF Dev Team

P.S If you have any issues with this rule, please PM me or any member of the Dev Team

*************************************************************

UPDATED RULES!!!

As part of monthly review Forum admins noticed lot of spamming in this section and have advised dev team to re-instate the rules for members to be aware of.

Please read them!

It?s understandable that Big Boss show is not on air and there is not much to discuss but that doesn?t mean we can treat this section as a general chat section. There are other sections where chatting is allowed and members are requested to use them. We do encourage few fun filled and not contextual post but there should be some limit.

We encourage discussion on Big Boss related topic or at least contextual references to the Bigg Boss show.

All non Bigg Boss related posts will require a consent or approval from the BB Dev team before being opened. Any such topic if found opened without the permission of the Dev team will be trashed immediately without any notice to the member. Non adherence to the rule can lead to warning as well. This includes the Game threads. This section is soon turning out to be a game section, please try and avoid this.

Please be reminded that no non topic/off topic mundane chatting will be entertained in threads. If you have to discuss, discuss the topic or responses in the topic related to the topic. Non topic chatting makes the threads look unimpressive and also the continuity of the discussion gets lost.

It has been seen that at times, the same article or interview gets posted many a times in a day by different members. So, before you post an article, check the last couple of pages to make sure it has not been posted before. Please avoid redundancy. Such articles will be trashed by the Dev Team without any notice.

Do not open welcome or goodbye or recall or missing or busy threads. They also fall in the non contextual category.

For Contest or DOTW or Game threads do not get carried away in off topic chatting filling up pages. It may seem enjoyable to some, but the rest who are taking active interest in reading the responses lose track and is quite frustrated. Please avoid it.

Please STOP spamming. It makes the topics and the threads look messy.

Please use Topic names which make sense to the contents and clear.

Understand we were very privileged section, being pampered by our dev team but as part following consistency of rules and regulations across the forum all members are requested to read the rules and follow it. Non adherence can result in getting a warning.

We know that all are here for fun and rules help us have fun in a more organized manner, which as part of community is a great practice. Looking forward to co-operation from you all, Kudos to all BBians..

The rules there have been in place for some time now, and I sincerely hope for your benefit that you have read them. This thread is simply a reminder for you members to stick to the rules and the main aim of this thread is to let you know that Spamming and Chatty threads will not be tolerated.

If you have any problems then you can add it to the Suggestions/commments thread that we have HERE:

Big Boss Forum Dev Team.

In best interest of all our members, here are some updates from BB Dev Team.

First of all, Thank You, for being here. Big WELCOME and hope everyone has a gala time this season.

We have 3 video up-loaders, doing a great job. Be patient on video uploads these members are working hard to get uploads ASAP.

Our main reason to merge posts or close related / similar post is ? We want max post on page 1 and 2 open for discussion. And we encourage more discussion posts then 5-6 articles related article posting. We might merge few Annoucements and Stickies to increase discussion post on page 1.

We have 2 written updaters, Thank You for hard work, we request members, if they can provide updates on some days? Updates should not necessarily be long but even summary is enough. Please PM Anon/Raj5000/GM?s, if interested.

Members with innovative ideas for contest, don?t hesitate to PM us, we are always there to help, to get fun contests / games going in this section. We had planned to start IF ? BiggBoss contest, due to lack of volunteers, still on hold, if interested in becoming the ?BIGG BOSS?, PM us/GM?s.

Copying contents from other sites not allowed. Please be careful.

Sharing articles is fine, but articles should not be from sites that are not allowed, should not be a repeat and should not be related to any of the active post. Articles should have source link, Spoiler in subject (if applicable). Please view articles posted by *shruti* to view the format. (Thanks Shruti for setting an example here).

Don?t hesitate to share feedback on section activities, feel free to PM BB dev team.

Do not spam on any post that might divert the main topic in discussion.

Avoid using swear words, even thought they might be common in individual?s day to day life, but as per forum rule, NOT ALLOWED in IF.

Direct or indirect personal remarks are NOT allowed, please be careful.

Other then contests, we are starting discussions on day to day happening in BB, weekly nomination guesses and weekly eviction guesses posts. Volunteer?s welcomed.

Anything that is not right, just report it and let us follow up.

Trying our best to make this place fun loving for all and your inputs help. Do PM us anytime and we promise to respond.

As our elders say " Treat others the way, you want to be treated " is the motto, be considerate to other members, everyone has their own POV, it?s in best interest to acknowledge it, if not agreed. If offensive, simple report them.

Thanks for reading; we will be updating this post with recent happenings at our end.

Thank You All,

BB Dev Team

Based on reported posts and current topics, DT has its update

FYI - There are many posts that are similar / related topics posted in this section> We do appreciate your new topics but please do not open new topics, when a similar or related topic is already open and active.

Inappropriate responses or topics are not encouraged per new rules of inappropriate contents on IF. Including thrash talk. Even though big boss telecast includes inappropriate contents, we will not be encouraging discussion on them; such distasteful posts will be thrashed to maintain section's / forum's decorum. Such responses will be deleted without notice.

We will be opening daily discussion topic, a sticky everyday where you can share you opinions on day to day episode.

We will be adopting a little lenient attitude towards newbie?s, as they are not acquainted with our rules.

MID- NOT allowecd, i.e. Multiple ids, unfortunately there are many, please be advised to disabled multiple id?s or else by this month end they will be banned. Concerns? then please get in touch with Dev team to consider any genuine reason for MID?s.

Please participate in banner contest.Feedback on anything is very welcomed, just PM us. We are planning to start IF Bigg Boss contest, interested volunteers to conduct this contest are welcomed , just PM us for details.

Thanks

BB Dev Team
