I joined that forum in March/April of this year and I can tell you that there were some very controversial stuff going on, resulting from the political developments occurring at that time: removal of a popular prime minister by the military establishment.
Most members reacted negatively, that's okay; but a large chunk of these members, imo, crossed the red line into totally disparaging anything military. It's as if they were inciting/fomenting anti-military propaganda which you'd otherwise assume were fake indian profiles. Calling on the destruction of the army, etc.
I had posted about this at the time on the forum. If I was in the Pakistani military or even political circles, I would've forced shutdown this website without warning because it was inciting divisiveness in the country.
Over the past few years, the PDF has been filled with posts from members of India, Pakistan, China, Turkey and Greece attacking and trolling each other. Imran Khan's ouster has further led to a drastic drop in the quality of forum posts and is, in my opinion, the final nail in the coffin
Well from what I see, the new forum got new instructions from "above". The new forum mods are garbage. They made that one famous anti-China Indian guy mod, and there is also another extreme-anti-China member who has become a mod. This says to me more than anything else.

Tbh the type of garbage that was surfacing on the forum at that political event made me think it may be a conspiracy. I couldn't believe Pakistanis would be doing this to their own national institutions without looking at the big picture. Even out of the forum, it felt like the whole situation benefitted nobody more than the enemy. I mean, who is gonna man the most volatile border in the world? These guys were defaming anything remotely military and inciting a complete de-establishment of the military.
I wouldn't be surprised if all the admins are Indians. Indian mod on a Pakistani defence forum.. you definitely don't make this shit up.
That's not much different than r/China. It's par for the course for the enemy to try and dominate all discourse about us.
I was a member of the previous pdf in 2018-2019. There were way too many Indians for my liking. That statement shows to what level British colonization worked. Of course not only the gift of freedom from British empire that made them forever grateful, now they tend to compare others on the scale of how good of a public servant you are to West compared to them.
Guys, no politics, no spreading of any cultural, political, religious or whatever BS and even more NO NEED to discuss any members at the old PDF.
Therfore, back to the topic and a kind reminder to stick to the rules… here we take care of them in contrast to the PDF and therefore already a first ban was issued.

One of the biggest problems with PDF is that they never perma ban repeat offenders. You can have some members who are on their 1 gazillionth ban and still act the same way. It really drags the quality of the site down.
