Shaaaaaaa Babezzz... I am here.... I am here... I was super tied up for the past 2 days but as promised, I am here to answer ur q's..

#1. what is ur vision on IF. what u like/dislike about it. what should change here? how did it affect your life?
Ans. My vision of IF is a place where people get together irrespective of their differences/races/religions/cultures to celebrate togetherness..Whether it is a drama or a musical show or masala daar news from Bollywood, the very fact that we all come here forgetting the harsh realities of everyday life and enjoy entertainment in its purest sense indicates how IF has bonded all of us together with one thread.. There are no nationalities here, rather a celebration of unity! And that what IF means to me and how I want it to continue as in future..
Likes About IF:
<>
+ Quick written/video updates of almost all drama serials for people like myself who don't have the luxury to enjoy these serials on our tv's on daily basis.
+ A multicultural community with people that share their differences with one another with mutual respect and admiration
+ Great place to learn about different multimedia projects including signatures/banners/video making/animations, etc
+ Thought-provoking DOTWs and amazing insights into current events
+ Quick updates about what's hot and what's not at this very instant in the world..
+ Amazing collection of pictures from the drama serials.. It's like hitting a jackpot 😉
+Great place to find interviews of celebrities and even have them visit the forum to read our opinions about them and to get their input on us as well.
+ Some great writers exist here.. Some of the fanfics that I have read were simply mind-blowing. 👏
+ Last but not the least, its awesome members.. People who may differ in their approaches towards life but who are there for you when you need them.. In other words, great place to find good friends 😃

Dislikes About IF:
+ Having gazillion of members sometimez end up slowing the servers.. U hit "post reply" and sit there for a good 20 seconds or so to see if the post went through or not.. That's what popularity can do to ya 😆
+ Sometimez, the rules in some forums are way too strict. I understand that these rules are there to maintain peace and calm but what's the fun if one can't post thread at the spur of the moment? It's advised to use the pm service for chatting but personally, I see some forums being flooded with fanfics more rather than threads about the show. That kind of bugs me. We have our own forum of fanfics.. Why not ask all the great writers to post their creations in the "fanfic forum" rather than in the drama forum? Better yet, why not split the "Fanfic Forum" into subforums of dramas where the fanfics could be collected as per the drama.. I understand we have a lot of dramas to list under one forum but that would mean more organization and less hassle for those who do not want to scroll 4-5 pages of fanfics to see where the current news are..
+ We see interviews with older and veteran members of IF or those of the development team members.. But what about the average joe who contributes but would probably never get an MOTW or an interview or a birthday post dedicated to him/her simply because not a lot of people know him/her. I have a suggestion.. Why not have a heart-to-heart chat with the current members as well? Pick a random person every week or so and spend sometime with the person getting to know him/her.
+ One thing that often ticks me is that the videobies have so-called previliges on IF. They are called a member of the development team but they can't do anything about the posts that they make.. Furthermore, I don't see a videobie's name ever appearing along with the dev. team members name for a particular forum.. From what I see, videobies and coolbies are all a part of "India Forums Development Group". Maybe I am expecting a lot but my vision for a better IF has videobies getting their fair due as well. 😊
So I just mentioned some suggestions and ideas about what I'd like to have changed here.. On another note: I'd like the Videos section of IF to become functional soon so that the video mixes could be posted there for public viewing. Moreover, I'd like to have the general web template/layout to change in future for a fresh and new look.. 😉
How did IF change my life? Well, it definitely took a lot of my idle time away from me 😆😆.. I look forward to coming here every day and getting in touch with my friends to share the daily tidbits of life.. It has given me encouragement to voice my opinion without the fear of retaliation from others and has given me respect as well.. In a nutshell, the place is quite addicting 😉~
#2. what is ur vision on love?? explain by using the words trust, betrayal, lust, desire and passion...ooh yes ladka-ladki love 😳
Ans. What love is for me? Perhaps an emotion that makes one feel connected and in sync with that special person. An emotion that invokes peace and satisfaction deep inside; a friendship and commitment that trascends a life-time; a sentiment that I wish and hope to encounter and retain at some point in near future; a sensation that makes one share everything with that special person and binds one to that person in such a way that there is no turning back from there.. Just going forward and that's it!! Love comes with its fair share of sorrows along with pleasures but to sustain any grief in it and to pay heed to the joys that emotion brings is what love amounts for me.. Love leaves us completely immerse into that special one, making him "everything" for us. His happiness is all that matters and for him, one would do anything. Love gives you emotional protection, which is beautiful thing to have! As for lust and passion, I think that is an integral part of any relationship. However, love in its purest form is all about mutual admiration and being in awe of the other person rather than lusting for the person. Granted physical attraction can't be ignored or neglected here, but when you turn grey and weak, its the support and togetherness that you share with the other person that keeps you alive and kicking instead of lust..
It is certainly something that I have yet to experience, but what I can't wait to encounter it in my life 😉~
When your heart is connected
The writings on the wall
You're always protected
Love will never ever stall
Call on emotions..
And place them in my hands
When your heart is connected
Love will stay the same!
#3. As a female, how do you contribute to the emancipation of all women in this male dominated world.......😉
By voicing my opinion out loud!! I know it is a very small step towards the greater good but each and every step in this journey matters a lot! I have done all those things that would normally be expected to be done out of a male member of the household as per the norms in our society.. I support my household, take care of my family and still continue my education despite having a bachelors degree just to show that today's woman is capable of multi-tasking and doing all the things that were once expected to be done by a male figure in the family.. I voice my thoughts out to let the world know that I EXIST and that I MATTER!!!
Was that enough, Sha? My mind's numb now....
xoxo, Sana~
