A few weeks after the last series ends. will this forum continue. Or will everyone just stop using it. For it to become one of thoses ghost forums that nobody logs onto. ?

Will any of you stick with it?

No because it will be turned into a reality TV forum and there is other show to talk about.

It will be kept open but will slowly die, with in a year there will only be a couple of posts a week.
The only way it can be kept alive would be to create a Real World forum.

Good try - but as you seem to be the only fan - not sure that would be such a good idea! :joker:

I guess the focus will be reshuffled to other TV shows.

I dont think it will die...its still pretty busy when BB isnt on, I think it will be a bit quieter though.

Will be off-season all the time. <3.

Plus, BBUSA hasn't finished, and I doubt it will anytime soon, so it'll still be a Big Brother forum.

The only reason its busy off season is because we get a load of new members whilst BB is on, no new series, no new member hence the forum will slowly die.

But if the forum rebrands itself as a reality tv forum(new website name), then we'll get plenty more members.

Good point.

Not many new members stick about after BB ends though.

Plus, we will still get some new members for...say..the x factor. It will be quieter, but i dont think it will die totally.

The people who have over 10,000 posts will be deffo sticking around, when it ends it will be full of conspiricy about which channel will buy it.. On that note does anyone know if Endemol ended up purchasing Channel 5?

Just look at the join dates of the member on this page, all most of the joined in either January or May-August.

The forum has been dying for a while now. It's gotten less busy each year since i've joined which was BB8.

It's actually got more busy each year. Just look at the number of posts in each BB series forum.

It'll be like off season but all of the time. It'll die down in a few years if nothing new happens but if people keep on making a bit of an effort and the cetral topic of the forum is shifted to the X Factor or just general reality TV, I reckon that it will probably still be around in the near future. I'll definitely stay on here.

The fact is, as there is ThisisXFactor.com, many people will resort to that, but it will never be the same as with Big Brother. Sure, ThisisXFactor plays host to the X Factor, which is on basically the same amount of time as BB, once every year. It's just, if you look, not many people use the forums for other shows such as The Apprentice and more. You may as well just change the site/forum name and the domain to ThisisRealityTV.com. Mind you, may be taken, can't be bothered to check. But if you change it to that, maybe some more people with join.

A lot of the off season regular posters don't even post much on the BB11 forum. Ive noticed.

'Ey people on the LOST IMDb board swore that when LOST wrapped the board wouldn't die and they'd still go there... it has started to wither away though. I never post there anymore.

BB isn't the main thing i talk about on here, so i'm not gonna leave.

Same with the LOST board. Most of us just talked about random stuff there were more OT posts than LOST related posts... but it just seems to have gotten less lively.

I want it to stay as ThisIsBigBrother/TiBB, I just couldn't warm to anything else (and especially not ThisIsXFactor)
