When did TiBB become a popularity contest?

[Jack_]

Stacey and Samy, why don't you try PMing or something? Get everything off your chest.

LOL, I completely took that the wrong way :joker:

[Rob]

LOL, I completely took that the wrong way :joker:

As did i :P

[setanta]

Is it worth reading back over this thread or should I leave well enough alone? Broken record stuff?

I like you too Jack but not in a man loving way, in a mutually respectful manly way :wink:

Wise words Joseph. Wise words. :D

i did that last night, instead of making another thread for it, or causing anymore ****. she just kept saying like, 'bye' or 'Im done with this' stuff.
it didnt exactly go anywhere.

[Beastie]

Shasown.. do you like me?

[Mrluvaluva]

I'd leave well alone if I were you.

Its been like that for a while now Im sure.

well of course If you call me 'fake' I'm just going to avoid such a situation. Look, as I said, this has really upset me enough. If you want to be sane about it, and talk in PM then I'm all up for it. But I don't want to be hurt by your comments anymore, so only PM if you actually care for a solution.

Samyyx.

and i'm sorry to everyone, for this mess between Stacey and myself. x

Would you like to buy a Team Stacey tshirt or a Team Samy tshirt? I'm trying to sell them quick before they make up.

No, not at all. Think of my comments in any way you like, Joe Joe!

[Shasown]

Shasown.. do you like me?

I like everyone on this forum, for a wide variety of reasons, even when people react strangely or contrary to the way I would react, so yes i do like you,
However am only good for fun now, I keep my genes to myself regardless of how much women want to bear my children.

[bbfan1991]

Thats exactly how you were appearing though. :conf2:
Just siding with all your 'friends'.
you have clearly had a problem with Jess for a while, its just so obvious.
i never meant to 'upset' or 'hurt' anyone in this.. as it was mostly Jess getting hurt herself. so i agreed and stood up for her.
Just little things getting to me, you know - like you saying 'oh, i was waiting for Patrick and Jack in there' and stuff. all seems so... just so... cliquey. :|
Because they have a problem with her too, so yeah.

[InOne]

No, not at all. Think of my comments in any way you like, Joe Joe!

[Zippy]

But not enough to make you vote for him?

Got to love these asslicking threads.

Lol. You can't imagine how grateful I was to be eliminated from that sh!tefest. I cringed when I saw my name thrown in there. Soon as I get any notion of popularity I shall snap a puppies neck with my bare hands just to sabotage it.

Thats just how we roll in Chipping Norton! :joker:

I like you too Jack but not in a man loving way, in a mutually respectful manly way :wink:

I think the beast was calling Shasown a man slag and Zippy was relieved that he wasn't voted through in the popularity contest!

Good god @ the continuing samy/stacey thing :bored:

And as for the original question, it has been since I joined...well, since I ventured out of the BB forum into the others :laugh:

Yeah President didnt come on my list of suspects when I first heard that Gavin was a multiple account.

[Zippy]

Popularity contests I think...not for me.

But I did see you voting Wombai. Albeit to stop Patrick winning probably!

[Raph]

Samy, Rachel best not win that poll. It'll be a joke if she wins.

she's on 29.11% now! she's owning this poll, and I'm so proud of her! Really surprised though, tbh :p

I always knew Gavin was a troll but I couldn't believe it was President. Can't say I even thought another member was behind the account :p

They had a 3 some and lived happily after ever!

they were gay?

[Mrluvaluva]

Oh God yeah, I always liked him but it must've been awful for Mark, what with how long they'd be online friends for.

I think they were friends for about 3 years. Then he, and others, found out he was not who he said he was. I can imagine it was quite unnerving. It's very hard to accept someone on the internet. Not the same as real life. Trust is different in some ways.

[Beastie]

:whistle:

Yes.

[WOMBAI]

I have seen people falsely accuse others of being trolls/multiple accounts so many times - until admin confirmed that they didn't share the same IP address! Noone ever has the decency to apologise - they just repeat the mistake over and over again, with other people! Quite frankly - pi**es me off!

Like a f.ucking broken record.

I'm confused. But Rachel is winning now with 29.36% of the vote! :D

i remember President and Gavin were just weird

Yeah, have to agree here. But these people can really trick you - it's quite scary actually.

I can safely say that if it was ever confirmed that the two, or maybe three people I think are trolls/fakes were real then I'd publicly apologise on here. I'd feel really guilty, honestly. But hey, let's not start this up again... :hugesmile:

[Mrluvaluva]

Yeah, some slip through the net. And some create personas innocently I guess, to be someone online they can't be in real life.

I think the ones that get through are the clever ones. They don't come on to cause trouble, but they can sometimes get caught up in it. Then they gat careless.

Same thing applies in real life too though. Just have to judge it all as best you can.

[Zippy]

I'm confused. But Rachel is winning now with 29.36% of the vote! :D

There's obviously some campaign going on. Probably along the lines of lets **** this competition up by voting for the dullest HM ever.

Or Rachel fans are the most obsessive voters. Its certainly not a worthy poll thats for sure.

Why so shocked - there are clearly a lot of people out there that like her - she did win! I was not one of those, I might add - although I didn't dislike her - not much to dislike about her really! She was harmless!

i kept on voting for Sophie.
why hasnt she gone up? :conf:

That's very true, but there's a fair few wallies in real life who'd try to buy you and sell you too.

[Beastie]

Yeah you can vote as many times as you want. I kept voting back and forth for Jon Tickle about 10 times then stopped when I first posted about this poll 2 nights ago was it? or last night? lol ;)

Someone said though if you keep hold on the enter button that can make multiple votes much faster!

Sorry Samy, but what person in their right mind would vote for her to go back in again?

I don't think I could watch.

because so many people are voting, that a few votes won't change too much, I think!

btw, Rachel is at 29.93% of the vote! :p

i get way too embarrased though...
that lets my confidence down!

theres this boy about 19 i think, and he always speaks to me.
he lives in my local town and i just know who he is because of the place he works.
and he asked my mum: 'how olds your daughter?'
she was like '14'.
and then he said: 'aw, shame. not quite old enough for me then'.

LOL. and as we were going i swear i went bright red infront of him.
:blush2: Hes pretty cool tbh

I'm basically the same, but the problem for me is that online any comment you make carries more abiguity and is very open to interpretation because key elements of your personality can't be conveyed through the net, such as tone, body language etc.... personality basically. Wires can be crossed far easier in this situation. My response to Mrluva's comment is a key example.

I don't think anyone is. It's like when you are driving. And you will only relate to this is you drive. When you are behind a wheel, and someone does something to piss you off, you are there, giving the fingers, telling the other driver or pedestrian to piss off. If 99% of people were not behind their "safe place" in a car they would not say half the things they do. Face to face would be completely different. If hate or drink was not involved.

[Stacey.]

Its been crazy over the last night or so tbh...

i didnt mean to fall out with you, it just happened in my defence of her.

:hug:

[Jack_]

That's one of my biggest faults now actually. I get embarrased too easily, and in all honestly I think it's as a result of too much internet use. I never used to have a problem but now I do, and it's awful because when you think about it, you get even more embarrased :joker:

Yep very true, which is why trolls flourish on the net I guess. People just need to learn to not get affected by things on the net. I think it's harder for kids these days, as they grow up with it, it's all around them. Like kids have FB's and Bebo's at 7 and stuff, it's crazy.

i just think Jess is great, and i felt the way in which everyone who copied her avatar/signature was just taking the piss really.
i didnt mean to fall out with you, it just happened in my defence of her.

:hug:

I understand Stace. I had my reasons for being upset with her, but it got way out of hand. I see what bothered you completely. I do want you to know that I'm not playing a 'game' though :p
i've missed you Stace! Fresh start. <3

That is very true, sarcasm and humour can't always be picked up with text. Probably why there is so many arguments on here lol

Yeah, I think so. Plus, the problem is you may find yourself getting close to some people because of the absence or shrouding of personality that naturally occurs on the net, only to find out a few weeks later that they're fecking eejits, you know? At least in real life you can see the whole picture from the start.

Very true actually, I am a quite good judge of character in real life but on the net it's harder. People can almost lure you in to their own world kinda thing, and then you find it's all a sham.

[Zippy]

In fairness, I think everyone is probably a bit different on the internet to how they are in real life. They're two different worlds.

What does everyone think about too much internet use affecting how you are in real life?

Well I dont use hair products before I go online. Thats the only difference really. :joker:

Actually, I think these forums have become very damaging to society. Especially for kids who become addicted to them(hi Stace :xyxwave:). Theyre living in a virtual reality instead of getting out there and socialising with real people.

[Stacey.]

That's one of my biggest faults now actually. I get embarrased too easily, and in all honestly I think it's as a result of too much internet use. I never used to have a problem but now I do, and it's awful because when you think about it, you get even more embarrased :joker:



yep! i get embarrased over silly little things too :laugh:
and i hate it when you actually know youre going bright red! lol.
and then, someone goes and tells you!

I'm fairly good at spotting idiots or people that don't click with me in the real world. Far more difficult on the net.

I've sorted things out with Stace.
Libby finally came back in LOST,
and everything in my 'real-life' is going splendid as well.
So on that note, I'm off to bed!
Sleep well everyone! Love you all! :hug:

Very true. But it's a form of escapism for some people and others just have nothing better to do (myself), not much you can do really.

That's even worse lol :joker:

Night Samy, tc.

[WOMBAI]

i kept on voting for Sophie.
why hasnt she gone up? :conf:

Oh no Stacey - she can't go back in! I couldn't stand watching her sitting there picking all her hair out - all that awful bleached mess coming out in strands - it was so annoying the way she did that! If I had to sit through that again I would probably end up breaking my tv - or sectioned! :hugesmile:

[arista]

Stacey just leave it, Samy obviously does not want a confrontation, so best just to stop addressing her.

Lets have it all out in the open.
Stop closing Doors.



Keep it Real.

I don't know how many times I'm going to have to defend this, but the "Most Memorable" thread I made was 1) a feel good thread that, like it or not, spawned a series of other feel good/forum-wide participation threads. 2) a nice gesture & 3) in no way a popularity contest, because it was entirely written by me with no input from other people.

Anyway, Lewis made a very good point earlier in the thread about longevity. The longer you've been on the forum, the more scope there is for people to have opinions of you; so perceived popularity or hatred is only magnified over time. I don't really see the forum as being a popularity contest; I just think, as always, there is a contingent of people who need to be reassured. I don't think that's a bad thing. I think you have to be insecure or disillusioned with life in some way to find yourself as a regular poster on a website; perhaps it was a one off period in your life, perhaps it's all the time, but I don't think that's important and I certainly don't think anyone's in a position to judge someone else for being "sad", we're all as sad as each other! :love:

I really agree with this. It infuriates me when people go around telling others to 'get a life' because they appear to use the internet too much. Like, who cares? What's it to them? As I said earlier, some people use forums and the like for escapism from real life problems, others use it because they have nothing better to do, and others just enjoy the internet a lot. You can't define 'having a life' anyway because life is perceived differently by everyone and everyone enjoys doing different things and everyone has different problems. I just think it's ignorant and childish to say to someone that they're 'sad' or they 'need to get a life' because they use the internet a lot.

But I am evil incarnate and I like laughing at people who are sad.

[Twilight]

On topic about people being different online to real life, its true, I'm more nicer in real life, then i am online. and in real life i don't really swear much, but online i do.

[WOMBAI]

lmao! she was lovely though, funny and entertained me.
:D her hair was amazing! i never even saw her doing that lol.

Amazing, are you kidding - she was practically bald by the time she left the house! She just had extensions - hardly any hair of her own - that's what happens when people bleach their hair too much - it looked awful!

[Stacey.]

Yeah. i know her hair was like, short and stringy lmfao, but she was pretty - with or without hair extensions, even when she had no make-up on, in the morning when she just got out of bed :D natural beauty.

I am not even going to read through 16 pages of what's probably going to be arguements. I'll just say I don't think it's a popularity contest... make the forum your own, by that I mean it's your experience so make of it as you will.
