Were member names and their bdays against IF-COC, or were members bashing each other in this thread? Why was the thread locked?

Edit : Never realised until I saw this locked up thread, that people use report button for introductory posts too 😲

Okay, a couple of questions ji.

Appreciation Threads:

1. Who is allowed to post in them and who is not allowed? I mean is anyone allowed to or are they supposed to be a member first and then regularly post? I just browsed over some posts, and the only thing that I see is that fans of A in fans of B and just arguing. What is the purpose of ATs? From my understanding, is it not for fans who like the actor in question only? If so, is there a certain rule or procedure or whatever that says that only members of the AT are allowed to post? From what I have seen, fans of that actor want member to become the member of the AT and then post there. Those fans do not like when members come up and just post a criticizing comment on the actor. So yes you can ask members in the AT and join it.

2. Is random chatting allowed in an AT? Personally, I think it should be allowed to a certain degree b/c most of them only meet in the AT. Or is an AT only meant to appreciate the said actor alone? Kinda gets tiring na? lol However, if random chatting is not allowed, perhaps you can make a chit chat topic for members to go off topic. However x2, this forum s clearly divided b/ various fan groups and trying to confine them into a single chat topic won't suffice IMO. Taking that into consideration, maybe ATs should be allowed some random chatting-you can obviously put a limit to it b/c the main point of AT is to appreciate the actor. I just think it'll cause less of a hassle for both sides ji-the mods and members. Allowed to a degree where they don't cross the limit and start bashing other actors/members. If they are happy to chat amongst themselves in the AT, that's fine. But that does not mean they start abusing this freedom and insult other members not part of that AT.

I mean not everyone visits CCs, or frequently, and sometimes segmentation happens; like market segmentation happens. Each forum works as a target segmentation and hence, not everything is appealing or viable to every member. I've made one section my IF home, and I don't go to any section regularly like I do with that one section. It is like my "family/friends" circle for me. So taking that into consideration, I would like to stay there only, and not digress into something that I am not familiar with. So a chit chat thread suffices in that section. Agreed

What I see here is that frankly members do not get along with each other, and it's the truth. There is no point in asking them to co-exist till some ground rules for both or triple or quadruple or whatever sides is not laid down ji. So small steps like allowing a chit chat topic/chatting in AT, and reducing the traffic in AT topics would do everyone some good ji. Agreed and Allowed.

Sigh, this is getting way too long. Hope it made sense...if it didn't well I'm sorry for you and my fingers lol

EDIT

Oopsie...there is a chit chat corner lol....Well that is certainly not helping this section so maybe "restricted" chatting in ATs?😳

My concern cannot be worded any more...I just want Bigg Boss forum moderators to co mod with you. One mod is not enough for objectivity from what I can observe. Shru di and Nadz are here and they visit the forum very frequently.

I can't believe Aditiluvskajen and her entire posse reports everyone who's not fond of their favorite, and you take all that into consideration. It's our AT...we are part of it....if the members there do not have any issues with words like "double dhol" or YT vids, then why does Aditiluvskajen? Ghad. 👎🏼 I can also stalk the other ATs and report continuously (including the hi, hello posts), but I choose not to, because none of us here are 2nd graders. Sarcastic, and witty remarks will not turn anyone's world upside down as far as I'm concerned. Personally, I don't feel it's right for you to accuse the member in open like this when you are not even sure about it.

I have never come across such a censored forum in my life....and when I say this, I mean it. I have been part of various forums up until now....this one reminds me most of Nazi Germany. It's not your fault...it's the rabid fan bots that are making your job more difficult by endlessly flooding your pm box and reporting ppz like us. I just wish you'd look at the content of reported posts, and the other posts surrounding the conflict, before issuing warnings. I have said this to several members now and I'll say it once again, I do look at the content of the post. And by the way, I have always shown you your post when you get warnings from me.

We need moderators that are open minded, who moderate with objectivity....and I would appreciate if a few other mods from the Bigg Boss forum join this place.

(Can you issue pm warnings or increases to ppl that abuse the report button, or stalk AT's?...) All I can do is to ignore those reported posts if they are not genuine. And trust me, I very well know who is doing it on purpose and who is doing genuinely. It's very easy to tell.😃

Hey all i want to say is that please allow constructive criticism if people want and take care of some people who are such retards that they attack Member personally if that member hates their favorite Celebrity . ..

Even i was the victim of this fever but after receiving such hate attributes from PHAN groups , it only makes me hate their idol more and pity their sick childish obsessed minds..

People should not be allowed to bash anyone personally , whether they are some Fans or Non Fans

hi Modish, i think you're doing a fab job

no queries or Q frm me, just a lil feedback:

you are a neutral mod who will take action when required & thats definietly what this forum needs

we dont want someone who wont be able to take action just because they are friends with the member or just because they also hate the celebs

keep up what your doing & thanks for looking after everything👏

we really couldnt have gotten a better mod

i find we can all enjoy the forum now

Isha .. credit goes to you for requestin the mod to open such a thread!
well done sweetheart : )

and .. well ... my query is..
why are we restricted to ONLY talk about akash on Akash AT ? surlly u r aware that wen we start chatting about akash or raja or whichever celeb AT we belong to.. naturally we tend to talk about other topics also..
and wen u bring up stringent rules about "one celeb" discussion... it spoils our mood and fun.. ! ... so .. i would like you to think about it !
thanks!
