Rules and Inactive DT ||22/08||

Hello Guys🤗

Here are the rules:

1. Any sort of name calling/bashing(indirect or direct) is not allowed in the forum. Whether it be the actors/ CVs /members/DTs. If some name is used in the show for characters, it would be allowed in the forum too. for example: cry baby, baaz etc

2.Any discussion regarding current/ previous DT is not allowed. You can PM us directly for any concerns. Your first point of contact will be Parm and second point of contact will be Appy. If you are not satisfied with their answer or they are inactive, you can contact me. If you are still not satisfied with my answer you can contact GM or admin.

3. Please do not abuse the report button. You can report when you feel the post is breaking some rule. Please do not report the same post multiple times. Please give us a time period of 4 days from the day the post was reported for resolving the reports. 

4. While reporting in AT, if there are 1-2 pages of posts which break rules , you can report first post and mention the number of pages. For example: if there is chat going on for 3-4 pages, report the first post and then mention to check the next 3-4 pages. This is only applicable for reporting AT posts. 

5. Please ensure you write the complete reason while reporting. Sometimes, we might not understand the context of the report as we aren't watching the show or because we think differently, but details in the report will help us understand your point of view.

6. If you find a post which is breaking rules, please do not moral police or attack the member back, just report the post. 

7.Comparison posts will not be allowed in the forum. Any such posts will be closed.

8. Abusing/mocking/attacking DT while reporting or through PM will not be allowed. If you have questions, you can PM us. You can go through this thread for details : Report button abuse and direct WL increase. Your WL will be increased directly without any WPM, if reports are used for mocking/questioning DT. 

Copy pasting there rules from recent written updates thread: 

1. Using names used in the serial/official channel : ANY name used in this serial/official channels can be used here too. Whether it be animal name, age based name. anything.  If this offends you, you can discuss this with higher DTs. Please do not report posts saying they are instigating us by using a name which was used in the serial. This is ONLY allowed for characters. 

Some of the questions which came to me are : housefly is animal ref, buddha bajaj is age shaming. If it was used in the serial, we will allow that usage. If it can be used on national television, it can be used here too. 

We allow sarcastic comments on characters too. Please ensure your sarcasm is not breaking any of IF COC rules. Do not create new names for characters/couples. Triggering topics like character death, rape etc do not come under sarcasm. 

2. Bringing unwanted discussion in the written update. Written update is not frustration thread where you discuss the entire season. Discuss only THAT day's episode. That is all. Do not bring in past GIFs too. This is applicable for every other thread too.

3. Instigating fans : We allow sarcastic comments on characters but bringing in topics unrelated to topics will be considered as instigation. 

For example: since you are using bapre we will use filthy housefly too or saying since you use crybaby we will use baaz too. Is this discussion related to the topic? No. This or similar posts will be considered as instigators post. 

4. Using Sneha/Sneha Rishab Bajaj /cutie pie: Yesterday many members has PMed me proof how both were used in either serial, promo, bts clips etc. So I am going to allow the usage of all these names for now.  This rule has not been set yet. Once Appy and Erum comes back, will have a discussion with them too and come to a decision. 

5. Reporting : We get 100+ reports daily and believe it or not most of the reports are not breaking any rules. Its your right to report but please check the rules before reporting. if you have questions, please PM me for now. Once Appy and Erum comes back you can PM anyone of us three. 

6. Moral policing : We take this very seriously. Many members tend to come back to us saying they weren't moral policing or mocking. We understand your intentions might not have been to moral police but please read your posts before posting. Even if you moral police/mock/question members and edit the post, we will take necessary action. Disagreeing to your post is not moral policing. 

Other rules :  Rules Regarding Discussions on Forum [26/06]

You can PM Appy,  Parm or me for any questions.

Please avoid name-calling of any Characters, Members, DTs, CVs or Actors. Here is the modified list of names which are used to mock generally in the forum. We will keep updating it. It doesn’t mean that you can use any mock names which aren’t in the thread, it’s just to clear things for members.

Mata for Ekta Kapoor

Haddipie or similar derogatory term for AnuPre's Kid

Gober

Doormat
Buzurg

Shawlmate/Chawlmate
Nanny for Prerna

TRP Aunties

Polyester Pajama

Flopre

Dumb

Weirdo

We had restricted the use of dumb and weird for character earlier. Some members had PMed us and we realised we have not explained it completely and it restricted character criticism. It is okay to use dumb/weird to describe something characters did.

When you are calling a character dumb, kindly justify why do you think his/her actions are dumb/weird/idiotic. Don't just use it to mock characters or instigate fights.

For example : it was so dumb of xyz to do something. 

 this is also allowed xyz seems dumb because... 

xyz is a dimwit because

xyz's actions seemed idiotic 

What is not allowed : 

Calling other characters dumb/weird/dimwit in ATs for other couple.

Calling any member/creative/actor/DT as dumb/weird

Please dont use these on kids.

Note 12-08-2020:

Any names used in show or in official channels are allowed to be used in the forum too. please make sure the posts are not in completely unrelated topics. 

Thanks,

KZK 2 DT
