A removal of Buzz points only is not what we petitioned and campaigned for and what we set out to get in the first place.
If only Buzz points are removed, that means we are in the same position before going through all that we have done. To clarify, our suggestion was for Tellybuzz articles to be removed from the ranking system, remember in my first response to Vijay, when he mentioned 7% weighting of Buzz, what I told him (read here https://www.indiaforums.com/forum/topic/2528668?pn=9).
I will reiterate, Tellybuzz affect not only Buzz points, Unique Visitors Views (View points), Rating Points, Comments when they are tagged people go to the forum increasing the Unique Views again, then if it's a celebrity TB, they go to the fan pages, Comments, join Fan clubs (both parameters again in ranking), all these parameters are linked to Tellybuzz and we want all the effects of the Tellybuzz article affecting the rest of the parameters removed, that is what our petition and campaign was about, not only Buzz points.
If we accept only Buzz points removed and not the rest of the effects of Tellybuzz and start campaigning now for more articles from the channels why did we do that fight in the above paragraph, no reason, it was a useless effort, so we need all of that above to happen.
What we suggested should all happen, it's harder as as a software developer (all the code will have to rewritten for the ranking system) but we can wait for this change, as it will give us the fairer system we want, because we know channels are promoting more the other shows (newer shows with low TRP) as a result they will still have more tellybuzz articles, and if not all the effects are removed, they will still be at an advantage to other shows, so in my mind that is not a fair deal or a fair ranking system.
It doesn't have to be an immediate change, when I campaigned and made queries I asked the date of the change, not now it can be in 6 months, we will wait for the ranking system code to be rewritten. We will come of strike now, but we must have confirmation and assurance that all we want we will be given to us, before sign off of this deal, we must have that confirmation that when the code is rewritten the whole effect of Tellybuzz articles is removed.
