But I just dont have this much to say about my farewell, I have come here to share my story which had been a greatest adventure of my life, hope you dont mind reading it, its something I want to end with.
Ok so lets begin with the story, its the story before I came here.
It was 10th January, I was watching QH as my normal daily routine during the dinner time with my family. I saw a promo of AvRaj on the parapet wall, and Raj giving his had to Avni, she was too afraid but Raj saved her. I felt it nice, so I forced my family to skip, PKDH and watch APHG instead for just that episode. And then the magic of AvRaj came to my mind. I went mad after it. I watched all the episodes on internet for few days even my family watch their old boring shows which I didnt liked. I fell in love with APHG. Soon a list, I must tell flood of thoughts, questions arose in my mind and I had no one to tell them. My sister would see me as a stupid fan, and family think I'm mad.
I'm rich at everything but in reality a poor person, I don't have a true friend whole my life. Though I had lots of friends in my life at different stages of my life but as soon as my abilities and talent started shining they felt a bit jealous and soon our friendship was just a word than a relation. I couldn't share my APHG thoughts with them or I must say they dont really have any interest in it or me.
The above two reasons made me lock my heart's content inside me which was uncontrollable for me and I badly needed to express them.
I watched another episode and it was the trigger to resurrect my two years old IF account and come here.
At first I had planned, I would join for just a week, I would express and empty my heart with lots of members here, the leave within ten days maximum. Slowly the time increased to two weeks and I got some feedback and support here. Jas, Bittu and Tina Di, you three were the reason to hold me back here. I extended my time to one month but by that time I felt for the first time I got someone who really cares for me. I got the real friends in this virtual world and a true friendship I had always been waiting in my life. But to be fair, it was second time I felt it, the first was my childhood best friend who died unexpectedly. :'(
Ok... back to my story... slowly people started knowing me, I got popularized by a name Express by Jas and Tina di, it was immediately adopted by me because it was the secret reason for me to come here. #To Express my feelings and empty my heart. People started calling me Express like a train, super-fast to put my thoughts and reply to comments. Soon my qualities started to come out here as well, I started writing. First it was some poetry which I wrote here, but as there were less than ten members here I didnt got much feedback about it. Second I came to know about the problem with the forum. Very less members were here! I got an idea to live update the show and increase activity, hence Live update got a name here. I was happy with the feedback, people started coming. Few days later I got to know that everything here is systematic, members are allotted specific days to write a WU... LOL... I said it doesnt matter... Lets do WU for News segments, post spoilers and articles to bring in members here. By this time I was doing PQ Job as well which was appointed to me by Jas and Tina Di, I was taking care about it too. Few days passed and I got a chance to write a WU. I felt nice. Next when I went to my online source of watching my APHG Episodes, that website had been quietly copying WU from IF, I clashed with the website's Admin and warned them - We could sue them, we had a big /bitter argument and finally we agreed on a condition that We both will stop copying from each other or credit for the posts. Then slowly count of silent members increased. People started coming here but the new problem was they dont comment. I involved myself into some ideas and funny missions, posted to call the Silent members. I still remember Janta Maaf Nahi Karegi Campaign, etc. We had lots of fun with it here. And also fake argument thread was really a funny idea by Jas which bumped the activity a bit. Everything was just for the sake of CM Ranking... Lol...
The next stop for me was... yep... I started writing my FF! It was my first FF and just a sudden thought. It got a bit of fame to me when things in APHG mirrored same. And the excitement increased! Soon it ended. I turned sad for its end because I'm a writer at heart and I turn sad if I dont write. I started writing Episode reviews and bought my second FF to make my mood happy. The second FF broke the excitement level and craze for my work. I started feeling this forum as my second home. And then it was the exams time. I felt empty to leave this forum for few hours and was totally mad. I was obsessed with APHG and fell in love with APHG more and more. The Makers had kept the name perfect- Aur Pyaar Ho Gaya! It was really that feeling.
Back to the story... I started making VMs and surprisingly it was my first VM on show, it was a total success, it pushed myself into the VM world. I started making to spread the happiness and make myself happy. Next the FF and VM progress continued, I loved the way I started living here, My Reviews, FF and VM everything was just rocking, people started loving my work. I soon one after the other I got promotion on IF, to be surprised current one is my 4th promotion and finally Rocking as a Rockerz!
I was happy to have one of the best friends I could ever get. I shared different relationship with each member here - Bittu, I still miss you every day for wandering and having chit chat like bhoot in the middle of the night! LOL.. We were doing PQ Spamming Job to increase activity even at night, In day time we would increase the activity with teamwork, creating funny posts and getting them pink was just fun and we enjoyed it.
During the same time I experimented with MP3 edits and posted here, l also created a Master APHG Musics topic and one day I had translated the Title song of APHG, and that was the time I think... something really surprising happened! The Singer of APHG Title Tracks - Mohit Pathak!!! Came here! As I was maintaining the Music topics, he liked the work and sent us Exclusive HD MP3 as a gift. I felt really nice about it and yep it was the biggest surprise I got here.. Lol..
Many things had come and gone here, one thing to note was the day I left writing Reviews, new members started to come in and tell me they were silent members and used to love my posts and reviews and are a big fan of them. Requested me to continue. I was speechless and surprised to see silent members are coming up! I never thought about them. One such member who really touched me was @Hammad: told me "your reviews bought me alive from dead active mode... Your posts are just magical" I was like.. My waste post to increase activity have so much popularity? LOL.
I began writing something special for them.. hmm.. Yep It was Wassup AvRaj Reviews, but that didnt lasted more than a month. I turned unhappy to stop them, came back with Chikki Ki Love Story experimental Reviews and that was a great success but I was not able to keep it up... I dropped the idea as I got too busy and overstressed with my personal life. I tried many new ideas like Picto Reviews to bring something new, that was all great but I couldn't keep them going. I had lost my free time and activeness with my trip to my other home outside my home country.
Two last things that had kept me here till now are...
First- NL Job - that too came to me as a surprise! I had joined NL Team and after few NL Releases, I got a message that The old NL Head @Afrin is leaving and asked me could I step in on her place. I was confused a bit and also hesitant, I said OK as I wanted to keep the activity up. That really changed and though me some lessons. But the day had also come... I sent my resignation today! August Release will be the last PyaarExpress Newsletter release under me. Hope the new Head takes it to new heights. My journey with it was till here.
Second - AvRaj Pyaar Ki Video Factory - Hmm.. No explanation about it, Meera - (Black_Angle) added a request if someone can upload AvRaj scenes but clipping them so that it would be easier for all VM makers to make AvRaj VMs. At first I felt it too difficult but I accepted the request, it was actually a challenge. I got a technological help from my Brother and got the resources ready. And hurray I launched the Video Factory. Happily it has every single AvRaj Scene updated till now. But sadly as I'm going I wont be continuing it. I'm shutting it down on Episode # 150. If anyone is interested to continue post a comment on Video Factory Topic immediately. And I would support you with the lengthy tutorial #But I must tell you - It needs expert knowledge and lots of attention to setup and get used to it. It was the biggest thing I learnt in my life which needs lots of care and attention. Needs a person to be expert at online tools...! Lol...
P.s. There are lots of good memories here I cant write them all here, few of them are - Easter Hunt contest and Pyaar of the Week Hot seat are memorable to me as I had lots of fun with them.
---
There goes a fast track look at my Story.
Whats coming up with me and why I'm leaving is at the last post.
I have left some of my last words to almost every member, close to me or I know here. Hope everyone read them.
Thats it for this post.
