THANK GOD thats over
Ive found this to be the most scathing and nasty experience I've ever had with BB.
Absolute chore keeping up with social media and defending favourites.
I can't wait to have my life back for a bit.
I do genuinely think social media has ruined Big Brother
Sadly beyond repair.
Everyones offended, all the housemates are 'vile' or 'evil'
Im at a point where i don't think we will have a fully deserved winner ever again.

You brought it on yourself.
All you've done through the entire series is whinge and moan!

Solutions-
1.) Don't use social media to discuss Big Brother
2.) Don't watch Big Brother

Why don't you just watch the show and avoid social media :suspect:

It is wearing defending favourites....I am looking forward to some early nights. However...nothing like a good debate and responding in defence of our faves.
Social media can bring out the worst in people...but I only go on this forum and I love the debate with sensible people.
Now I can catch up on some sleep before the summer debate...:cheer2:

I've seen a lot of support for both as well, not to mention an equal amount of 'bitching' and support for the rest of them. I think you may just be seeing what you want... or rather don't want... to see.

I just think it gets OTT
'Vile' and 'Evil' should be reserved for murderers and rapists not someone who says something you disagree with on a tv show.
i think the OTT'ness is wearing thin now

Ellie.
I've noticed with you is that you can't stand it when somebody disagrees with you.
At the end of the day, people will have different opinions as opposed to yours.
You don't need to justify your opinions to anybody. Same way nobody needs to justify theirs to yours.
It's been hard for me too. I couldn't stand KP getting the boring label, when Calum who I also liked, was the same as her in terms of entertainment IMO, but she got more stick for it, for no reason whatsoever.
BB15 was harder for me. I remember liking both Ashleigh and Helen, and was so fuming at Helen being made the root of all evil, when Ashleigh instigated some of it too. In the end, it drew me more towards Helen, but I still like Ashleigh.

But tbf, technically (even though many people do not agree and say it´s not part of social media), forums and discussion boards are also part of social media and they have been around well before BB.
So i´m not sure about this.
Facebook and Twitter are very harsh places though, i fully agree.

Well that's petty isn't it
i think its way to easy to take BB too seriously. Its a gameshow, if a complete idiot or someone that sleeps through the whole series wins it, it doesn't matter

Just be 2cW_3f5RYD0 about the result OP, Hopkins was using your favourite and she paid the price for it by having a non-entity beat her to the victory post.:cheer2:
And tbh this Forum and DS can be just as bad for liking awful people and saying harsh things about contestants.
The thing that can be scary about FB in particular though is how all the housewives that I see post on there always seem to have the exact same opinions as each other.D:
It's a bit frightening if you ask me but there you go.

Ellie this is a very biased thread.
Its the same every year it just stings more for you this time round as Michelle finished 5th.
Frenzied social media has been around since BB8 lets remember and it properly exploded in 2009 so why are you acting like this is a new thing?

Because people know how to use it now.
The entire social media world is now so full of nastiness and trolling that its hard work to discuss a show properly when people's opinions come down to
'Vile' 'evil'
No one has perspective anymore
Everything is a drama
Every mole hill is a mountain RANGE
It's just become silly

I think the BB FB page has been awful this year, I've had people call me nasty names for supporting Michelle and even some guy threatening to punch me 'little girl or not'.
It does subtract from the fun imo

There is no need to be rude. You claim to hate Katie and call her a bully yet you don't think it's quite mean to call somebody boring and tell them to get a life?

Same here! Although admittedly I do like the "Don't mess with the Pricey" sound byte they use on BOTS so I can't really complain :joker:

I agree. I was over the moon when I saw that she had placed 5th. As a normal viewer, it was easy to detect that she was a fraud from very early on. But she made that easy by aligning herself with the LGBT movement and then befriending Katie Hopkins and isolating other housemates. Of all the housemates, she deserved to with the least.
What's even more great is watching Visage back pedal on twitter now trying to defend her position of befriending Hopkins, hah.
