Sapna Babul Ka... Bidaai Forum
Introduce Yourself - As more & more members are joining the Bidaai Forum, Please avoid posting "New Topics" for your introduction eg "Hey i'm new" "Hi" "New" etc. Instead please post your introduction in this post.- Bidaai Slambook / Introduce Yourself. Any separate topic opened will be closed or moved to the Bidaai Slambook / Introduce Yourself.
Bidaai Forum Information - Please check the Bidaii-Archives/Imp.Links - NO COMMENTS. This contains all important information about the Bidaai Forum. Important Links, past DOTW, past COTW, For links and Archives of VM's, Video Clippings, Promos, Songs, FF's, FC etc check out Bidaai Media Center.
New Topics - Before posting a New Topic, please check the first 2-3 pages to see if there is a topic on the similar subject. If there is one then please continue the discussion in that topic. Posting multiple topics on the same subject wastes forum space and also counts as spam. Any such similar / same subject topics opened will be closed. Please DO NOT turn the forum into a Fan Club of a particular jodi / character, try to post variety of topics.
Posting Articles - Before Posting an Article, Please check the first 2-3 Pages to see if there the article has already been posted. Do try and provide the source link of the article. Articles from "tellychakkar" are not permitted on IF and such articles will be trashed by the Dev. Team.
While posting articles from TellyBuzz, only give the link to the article. Do Not copy and paste the entire article here
Polls - A Poll opened on any important issue to get the views of members of the forum is fine, but opening polls everyday and about the same thing eg. "Hottest Actor" "Fav. Character" "Who looks better" etc. will not be allowed, as such polls just end up in chatting or fights and hurt the feelings of members of the forum. Moreover comparisons between actors / shows / serials is not allowed on IF as it again ends up hurting the feelings of members and also leads to fights between members and forums.
The Dev. Team requests members to open interesting discussion topics, instead of opening comparison polls. Any such polls opened will be closed or trashed by the Dev. Team.
No CAPS - Posting in all Capital Letters is not permitted. This represents "shouting" on the internet and can be viewed as offensive. In order to stress a word or a couple of words that can be written in Capitals or in Bold, but please DO NOT write the whole post in Capitals or Bold or large font size.
If you are not assigned to do the updates then please do not post updates. This is not fair as the updater spends time in doing the update and when they come to the forum they find it already done and posted, it puts the updaters work to waste. The schedule of Updaters can be found here Bidaii-Archives/Imp.Links - NO COMMENTS
Some members have the habit of taking pot shots at fellow members including the Dev. Team, especially if they make any post criticizing something regarding the show or a jodi. Please DO NOT take personal digs at members including the Dev. Team nor make fun of them or their posts. Be prepared to hear criticisms as well, to get more participation discussions are needed and not just praises. If you feel the criticism is wrong, reply to it properly within the limits of IF COC. What some of you are doing is breaking the COC.

SIMILAR TOPICS
It has been seen that a lot of similar topics are being opened. Its a request to all the members to please go thru the topics already posted and if there is a similar topic already open to please join in the discussions there instead of opening a new topic on the same or similar issue.
It does not mean that the topic has to be exactly what you were going to write, but if its similar then you can always add your points in there as well.
To give u an idea here are some examples of similar topics. Some are very very similar and some borderline.
On Vasu
EGO.....Over Kids Happiness !!!!
Vasu, a bag of contradictions!
Vasu needs a reality check. Ranbir is ur
On Malti
Relating to R and R phone conversation
A Beautiful Conversation/RR and RV scne
These are just a few examples, if anyone goes thru the recent pages i am sure you will find many more.
This is a sincere request to all members. Please DO NOT open multiple topics on the same or similar content. This is in no way meant to discourage members from posting topics, but its a request with the view to be fair to all posters and all topics. Cause if all similar topics come to page 1 then other topics which are equally interesting and important and of varied nature go to page 2 and receive less views and replies and sometimes totally ignored.
Similar topics do not mean it has to be exactly what you are going to write, similar means based on the same content. If you have another point to make on the subject you can easily do it in that same post. At this point i feel it is better that the members decide themselves what is similar and what is not as i am sure it will not be liked if the Dev. Team starts to decide that or takes some other strict action and neither will Dev. Team like doing or taking such measures, but if this continues we will have no other option but to take some action to maintain the proper working of the forum.
ACTOR CHARACTER TOPICS
It has also been noticed by the Dev. Team that off late a lot of discussion has started on the acting abilities of the Bidaai cast (no names mentioned). Some members keep finding faults whereas others are making them out to be heros. I feel going extreme in either case is not good.
The cast is chosen by the Bidaai Creative Team, and i think they have done a marvelous job. Each and every actor fits the character they are in, be it senior or junior, old or young, some maybe exceptionally good others good, but i feel no one is bad. Hats off to the creatives who give each actor ample screen space and each actor / character has a role to play in any given plot.
A mature and unbiased discussion is fine, but taking your likes and dislikes too far creates tension and an unhealthy atmosphere in the forum. Trying to put down the acting skills of someone all the time is not a good thing. Also on the other hand praising someone over the limit is also not necessary and may tempt others to pinpoint their weaknesses thus leading to fights.
So do try and keep all discussions friendly and no bashing will be allowed. If you have a negative point of view try and put it nicely, i am sure the point will be understood by all. If at any point the Dev. Team feels the discussion is going out of hand or has become repetitive and stagnant they will close the topic, whether members like it or not.
TOPICS POSTED IN THE FORUM
This is the Sapna Babul Ka Bidaai Forum and not a Fan Club of any particular actor, so if anyone is interested in just praising a single actor or want only a few selected members to reply to a topic just to praise the actor then please visit the Celebrity Fan Clubs and if there is a fan club for the actor join that or u can make 1 urself and open it just for a few selected members and praise them there as much as you want. Any topics opened in the Bidaai forum are and will available to all members for discussion, and for all points of view.
Only Appreciation Threads are restricted to members who appreciate the couple. All other topics are open and available to all members with all points of view.
Please try to keep the discussions friendly and limit them to the serial Sapna Babul Ka Bidaai, DO NOT carry ur likes nor ur dislikes too far as that disrupts the normal friendly atmosphere of forum. Everyone has a right to maintain their views, likes and dislikes and express their opinions, but lets not just assert our rights and forget about the feelings of other members of the forum, as this just leads to fights and unnecessary tension. Lets try and keep the forum friendly and a tension free place for everyone to visit.
POLLS
As mentioned in the guidelines comparative polls will strictly not be allowed in the forum, any such polls opened will be trashed.
EXPECTATION
I think the Bidaai cast / producers / directors work as a team and as a family and that is why they are successful in giving us such a good serial to watch. I feel each and every actor in the serial is important and has a role to play and is doing it very well and its all a team effort.
It is understandable that at times the story does not go according to our wishes or the actors do not perform as per our expectations. Every member has a right to express their views, express them and move forward, instead of holding yourself to that one point, try to enjoy the serial as a whole.
I just hope that all the members here at IF - Bidaai forum can also stay and work together as a team and give IF a good, healthy and happy forum to visit. Enjoy the forum and Enjoy the show.
This is in addition to the Bidaai Forum Guidelines which u find here Guidelines For Members - Please Read. This will be kept a sticky for a week and then added to the Forum Guidelines.
