Never change your email ID at Digital Point Forums
This if for webmaster/developers/domainers and everyone who are into “Web” creation generally. You might have heard of the very popular forum “Digital Point Forums”, which I think is best for selling & buying services. You get to learn a lot, the thing I liked most about it was that, it was more like an “open source” forum. Even though I was not using their revenue sharing program (where you can put your own ads on Digital Point), I appreciated the motive. Also, you get a new thread every now and then, so you are never bored.
Now recently I changed my email address (@yahoo one) registered with them and changed it (to @gmail one) . After that I instantly received a mail to activate my new mail ID, which of course I did “Instantly”
. After activating I got a message that “I am in a moderation que”
And now I can’t access my PM (message box) at Digital Point or post in any thread. My Profile don’t show up.
Whenever I visit these pages I get a message that “You must confirm your email address before you can use …..“.
I used the “Contact Us” form in the forum footer thrice but no reply. I tried contacting the mods but ..
- I don’t know who the moderators are
- I can’t use your PM to send them message.
Now it clearly states in Digital Point Rules that one should have only one ID, I understand why. But what do I do to contact a mod or admin there ? I waited and ultimately ended up creating a ID just to post this thread, which states my position. Now, I did not get any response from the admin or mods in the thread but I did receive 6 messages from members 5 out of which said that creating this new ID will get me banned. WT* ! Well yes this one guy tried to help me out but I tried changing my email ID back at his suggestion but nothing.
So….
If you have an ID at Digital Point forums then try not to change your email ID. There is no easy way out.
Edit: Today, August 14`th, after one month and 2 days, my ID got activated .

You don’t like Himesh Reshammiya : Why ?
For those who don’t know Himesh Reshammiya, he is a Bollywood singer-composer and now actor who is known for Controversies/Criticism. In the past, his critics have suggested that success has gone to his head, and that he has signed on films indiscriminately. His recent debut movie “Aap ka Suroor” was also a target of many criticism.
Controversies/Criticism
- Firstly, His nasal twang has been criticized by many over and over again. At his first album release, even I felt sometimes that the background music actually sold the song. Sometimes the humming tune really irritates you (just my view).
- His style of holding the mic with one hand up, Singing with Eyes Closed, The Crown (cap) under which he surely hides something valued etc..
- In Now 06, Himesh remarked that Mukesh, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, and R D Burman used to sing nasally. He also claimed that he had thirty-six hits in a year, and none of the above mentioned artists “ever gave the same number of hits in a year”. Later, Himesh clarified that his intention was not to insult R D Burman and apologized several times to Asha Bhosle.
- Reshammiya and his co-artists were questioned by the Income Tax department about their income from a concert in Surat. The organizer of the show, Nanu Ghaswalla, claimed that the IT officials were upset because they had been denied free passes for the show
- In his Debut movie, Reshammiya added a song Tanhaiyaan from Boney Kapoor’s proposed film Milenge Milenge. Reshammiya had composed the song for Kapoor’s film but later decided to use it for his own movie. Tips, which held the audio rights of Milenge Milenge, accused Reshammiya of copyright violation, as audio rights for Aap Ka Suroor - The Real Love Story were acquired by T-Series
- Ringtone Chori, When you hear the title track of the film ‘Apne’ you might get confused by checking your pockets thinking your mobile is ringing. Most people have complained that while they where hearing this track “Beetye lamhon ki†it seemed as if their phone was ringing, where as they had put their phonse on vibration mode.

- Recently, At Shrine of Sufi saint Moinuddin Chishti, Ajmer, A cameramen caught Himesh in a burqa. reportedly to avoid crowd of fans. Some people objected to this, and some even felt that it was a publicity stint for his forthcoming film. Later he apologized to the Anjuman Committee.
