Hello Hi. Ok I have recently seeing many posts of newbies who are confused about forum.I will try my best help you.With things I know.
In India Forum Newbies have considerable restriction.They are not allowed to make more than 10 posts in 24 hrs,they have to type verification code while starting a topic and their PM inbox have limited storage of max 50 messages.Then they are not allowed to post links.These restrictions are taken on precaution measures to avoid spamming
Spamming is an activity in the forum done by few rule breakers.Their only intention is to create unrest in forum by either making instigating posts or making posts with speculations or offending actors.Few pople post links which are unfunctional .Jut to grab attention.
so we can clearly say this activity is to grab attention.So to save forum of all this chaos few rules are meant to be made.
Then about forum grouping.You will get promoted to higher rank once you make certain number of posts.
Newbie 0-49
groupbie 50-199
Senior member 200-999
GOLDIE 1000-2499
DAZZLER 2500-4999
ROCKERS 5000-10000 and more
There is restriction on number of posts for newbies and broupbies.
With increase in rank your pm storage increases.
Then so if you plan properly and utilize your ten posts in 24 hours you will be able to turn to groupbie in 5 days.
Newbies can share links once they post 25 posts.
Then about few basic terms used
sbb,sbs,nn,e24.
these are the NEWS PROGRAMS related to television and bollywood aired in their respective chanels.They will give glimpse of upcoming episode and few times scenes.You can get news of them in forum from 12-4 .based on airing.
There are few people in forum who will keep check on these activities and provide us with written updates and links if they find.
But point to remember you need not trust them completely.Few times they speculate things to get their TRP'S.
OLV'S. also BTS
ON LOCATION VIDEOS./Behind the screen.
These are raw videos taken on sets .on how shooting went.They will be around 2min to 20 min in length.They will just give glimpse on upcomming scenes.These are not aired in any channel but comes online to say uploaded on youtube.
