I find this unbelievable......
  I can't believe this!!!

I stumbled upon this forum quite accidentally but once here, I just could not stop reading.....

The sheer amount of forum shilling that BJP seems to have been doing here is just mind-blowing. And nobody seems to have understood this!!!

Oh my god!!!

Somebody ---- take notice --- do something.

Gujarat Congress - National Congress - where are you? Sleeping?

Operators - mods of these forums? Don't even YOU know something about this? Can you not do something?

At this point I'll clarify my position : I'm ABSOLUTELY dis-interested in politics, least of all Gujarat politics, being from Mumbai.

I just don't care if Narendra Modi has caused thousands of muslims to be murdered or not - I think I'm too small, too insignificant for all such things. I don't care if he wins with a whooping majority or falls flat on his face with a defeat.

All I'm here to say is that I've seen prolonged, systematic schilling activity taking place here, from BJP supporters.

For the benefit of those who are not familiar with the terms shill, and shilling, I quote from Wikipedia:

'A shill is an associate of a person selling goods or services or a political group, who pretends no association to the seller/group and assumes the air of an enthusiastic customer. The intention of the shill is, using crowd psychology, to encourage others unaware of the set-up to purchase said goods or services or support the political group's ideological claims.'

Read the above definition and then check some 20-30 consecutive posts in this forum - you'll immediately understand what's going on and what this is all about.

For those interested in knowing more about Shilling, here is the Wikipedia link:

Attn: Web Dude (05:33 PM)

Yes, we know about shilling aka planting. (It happens at places like Amazon and eBay all the time.)

While all the posts here are not shill posts, what you have reported above was noticed and internally discussed here some days ago and the decision was to take no action, as it does not violate our posting guidelines or editorial policies in general. (However, if you are implying our complicity in any way, we disclaim it. From our perspective, supporters of any other party can do the same and it goes here, as long as our guidelines and policies are met with.)

We appreciate your concern and thank you for your participation in JeetegaKaun community.
