'Consider if someone found out something about you, in real life (like on a social media account), and you had it used against you in a conversation on a forum. You wouldn't like it.' this is what I'm confused about because i kinda agree with it, but where was the moral objection to the countless threads this series made about housemates personal lives as revealed on this tv show? Does it not make posters in this thread, who have called out peoples vitriol to cameron, that the housemates they've ****talked might read what they have put, and be equally if not more so disheartened? why do you find people telling cameron to his face they don't like him so much more horrific than whats written about housemates by multiple posters every day in off season? did you really not cosnider the idea they might find this forum and read such threads, or is it simply because you like the person involved personally? i hope its not the latter Last edited by Elliot; 30-11-2018 at 11:49 PM. |

It's the same thing on different scales. Maybe a bit of an exaggerated comparison by James but still a pretty legit comparison nonetheless. Basically by entering BB he opened up his life to the public but that's what people do in life all the time as well, this was just for a lot more people to see and it's viewed more openly to judge them etc. because it's a show. That doesn't make it right to unnecessarily bash the person but tbf I don't think the criticism here was too bad or OTT (but idk I think some things might have been deleted so at least from what I've read).

The point being made is the hypocrisy of owning and partaking in a forum that rips into a housemates every move, and not a single bat of an eyelid, then telling people to have 'basic politeness' because the housemate tweeted about us. Whats stopping hussain, lewis g, kay, akeem and sian visiting this forum and reading whats been wrote about them? If he wants to make his forum look good, the damage is done.. the precedent has been set that housemates are fair game, of course unless the moderator personally likes them and dislikes the people talking about them Last edited by Elliot; 02-12-2018 at 04:07 AM. |

i mean her slating cian and taking his kindness for granted for being loyal and fair to everyone and then blaming it on her period doesn't seem like a very fun game to me?

Personally, I would be fine with admin adding a rule that users can't go after former contestants if they're just visiting to get in touch with fans. It would be sort of like a "Contributor" status. It's not unreasonable for there to be a consensus of basic respect if a former castmember visits and takes the time to answer questions... and we know there are plenty of people who will abuse a situation like that if given the chance. I remember because I was that 12-13-yo who joined the "mob" to "harass" Britney Spears when she visited a radio station and was posting to online folk. I came across it because she was posting on an IRC server I frequented. I don't think that type of interaction is on the same plane as a "normal" member. Those visits are actual contributions to the site. i.e. "special content"... so there obviously could be different rules of engagement to discourage scaring away future contributors. Clearly, this is in retrospect, because Cameron already visited(?) and the show is cancelled so... (edit) obviously if they decided to integrate, then they would have to reintroduce themselves as "permanent" members... Last edited by Maru; 02-12-2018 at 04:26 AM. |

imo the moral outrage of things being said to his face doesn't really make much sense, since theres been nothing said about harsh comments being said about housemates on this forum in general, and theres nothing stopping said housemates from visiting and reading whats been wrote about them. Where was this 'basic politeness' for the 18 or so years this forum has been discussing housemates relentlessly and depicting their every move? considering tomasz and cameron have visited the forum from this series, its not so crazy to consider that what someone writes about a housemate may be read by them Last edited by Elliot; 02-12-2018 at 04:38 AM. |

Even if it was reported an ex-housemate had just got a job stacking shelves, there would be some who would object. Quote:
But what we are talking about here is saying things like that to a housemate's face - which is taking it to another level of meanness. With the 'fair game' comment you seem to be arguing that if Sian came on here it would be okay to say those and other harsh things to her, whereas I would be just as annoyed with it, as I have been here. |

This forum has an increasing problem with excessive hate threads/comments towards contestants on shows (most of which I believe is done as a way to bait members without technically breaking any rules rather than being general distain for said contestant)
If more was done to crack down on it whilst it was happening the narrative of this thread would be completely different. |

But as for comments on the forum / to his face (well technically not but you know), I'd compare to a real life situation: Say someone did something a group of people didn't like, or they just didn't like the person in general for reasons. Then they bash him among themselves but with the person in reach where he COULD potentially hear them. If he wanted to he could pay closer attention to them but otherwise he doesn't have to even hear it / most of it. IE: the housemates could check the forums and things like that online if they wanted to and find negative stuff about them. But I'm sure they're prepared for that regardless. But then say the person goes up to the group and is nice to them and all and the group continues bashing him to his face now about this other thing he did that one day. That's a lot more annoying/disrespectful/etc. That's what I'd say is the difference and why people should treat them decently if they're visiting the site regardless of what they saw from them on the show. At least to give them a chance to see what they're like outside.

Lewis & Cameron FTW!

Cameron and Lewis were my two favorite BB housemates/houseguests in a loooong time on any BB series, UK or US.

Maybe some rules can be laid down as there are in DS as to the insults to any housemate, Lewis in particular had some very nasty stuff said about him some even slanderous, so maybe add some rules to stop the unnecessary comments.

@cameron you can redeem all that you did in the house by getting goddess Sian on the forum! We had someone claiming they were Christ, now we want the real thing!

People are commenting on Cameron's status as a housemate and how he related/treated the others in the show. You told them to stop it, because Cameron himself was here. |

Maybe people stop being hypocrites and trying to silence forum members who don't like their favourites but then happily get personal and nasty with housemates they themselves don't like. Last edited by Marsh.; 02-12-2018 at 05:56 PM. |
