Here is a thought for the admin's and Want another TiBB BB? (merged)

[officialleafan]

Why don't you do your own Big brother on here...like digital spy, this forum seems very well organised and loads of people would take part...who agrees.

[LargeAndInCharge]

i do but they will do it if they want to do it not when someone says..

[officialleafan]

I was giving an idea, i wasn't telling them what to do.

[Sam]

People say this so many times but its just impossible to moderate.

[MarkWaldorf]

There's already been one, last year.

[andybigbro]

There was TiBB BB1 Hosted By Sol it was a success But TiBB BB2 wasnt so successful as Admin and Mods asked for a seccond forum to be set up to run it

[Sunny_01]

They are such a nightmare to moderate - sorry but I am pretty set against them :nono:

[SiMoN!]

they could make a part in the genral section for a VBB

[~Kizwiz~]

I dont understand them myself. They put people off posting and the site goes really quiet while it on because the only people who are posting are in the VBB.

[Sophii3x]

To stop people asking if they can do them. You could put it in the forum rules that they aren't allowed here!

I don't get why people would get put off posting just because of a game going on, I'd just avoid reading it and post in other threads.That said it's been done already so really no need for any others.

[Chrizzle]

I agree. I really really really enjoyed TiBB BB1.
I made some friends who I wasnt friends with.
It was just really fun and memorable.

I wish that TiBB BB2, was allowed on here instead of another site.

Noo it wasn't that,the people who were in TiBB BB weren't allowed to post in the forum and those were all the people who posted regularly which is why it went quiet.

Yeah but to be fair that was said before people applied for it, so we knew before we did that we couldn't post i don't get why people are put off by it if you don't like it just don't read it, like i ignore threads that annoy me not exactly hard.

[andybigbro]

Jay WON TiBB BB1 :hello:

[MarkWaldorf]

There are members forums, which were made for members. Why can't we just have one in there?

[Chrizzle]

I agree with Jay.

And Im sure even if there was another one, where you could have more than one person being 'Big Brother' and the rules were the same as forum rules. And were ejected if they broke it.

[Jay]

Couldn't like we give it a try and if things get too much then cancel it because TiBB BB1 i thought was a success.

[andybigbro]

Yeah it was a success

[MarkWaldorf]

If in the members section, it would be possible to moderate, because it's all together, other then all rattled together with other threads.

[Chrizzle]

We requested a seperate forum last time, but no one responded

I'd love another TiBB BB. It definately was an experience.

[MarkWaldorf]

Wonder why. :rolleyes:

I joined when TiBB:BB1 was about to finished. I was like WTF is going on! I just ignored it, and carried on posting in other places. So it is possible to carry on coming online when TiBB BB is on.

[Chrizzle]

The majority of members liked TiBB BB.
It brought members together, there wasnt many arguements.
Andy and Jamie maybe- but lets face it, it was hardly World War 3 was it?
me and Lindzi- who are best friends in real life and argue all the time.

[Jay]

Our opinions don't count we like to have fun not our fault if the boring people don't like it.

[MarkWaldorf]

lmfao. True! It's leading up to BB that's the boring part, I'm sure if we can get one done in time, it wouldn't cross-over to BB8, unlike last year wherr it did with BB7.

[Jay]

Yeah exactly but it will get in the way of the chat and games thread now we can't have that happening, people would cry :rolleyes:

[MarkWaldorf]

But if we have our own section for it, that wouldn't be the problem!

[Chrizzle]

Just quickly rustled this together

Why not host it yourself at:

http://www.freeforums.org/

You won't have bother us with it then.

[Sophii3x]

PMSL guys, they aren't going to change their minds. You may aswell give up right now. Just do what they did with TiBB BB2

[Chrizzle]

We did. It didnt work.
The whole point was, it was for the TiBB community. The membrs of Tibb took part and voted.

[MarkWaldorf]

We're campaigning for a 'TiBB BB'. If it's on another forum, it wouldn't really be 'TiBB' BB, would it?

[Chrizzle]

Now, anyone who was around in BB7 probably watched/heard about TiBB BB1.
A virtual Big Brother made by sol, which had housemates, tasks, twists, and was won by Jay.
I was involved, and it was so fun and I made friends with Jay, and we have been friends for almost year.

We were then told that TiBB BB2 wasnt allowed to happen on the forum. So, sol, made one on InvisionFree, and it just wasnt a success.

We are willing to compromise with certain rules if we were allowed TiBB BB3, to happen on this forum. We'd go by the rules of the forum.
We think that it would make sense if we had a seperate section, for polls and discussion.
We also understand it may be hard to moderate, but we would make it as easy as possible for mods. We'd keep the argueing, language, and discussion to a minimum, and would just try to have fun and enjoy the experience.
We also know that its up to the admin, and are not trying to push anyone, just simply ask.

To show your support, use this:tongue:

Thank you

[Red Moon]

You could ask mark if you could call it the TiBB virtual big brother and just host it elsewhere.

People that want to join in watch etc could join the forum.

You could have all the sections you liked. You could make it really good.

Oh right, I get what you mean.
But at the end of the day, it's their call. They are the ones who have to moderate during it and all that.

But saying that it would be good to have a TiBB BB, becuase I missed the last one!

[Chrizzle]

My very POLITE plea is in General Chat

When the first one was going on did you bother to read it?

Because i no it was popular we only had about 3 or 4 moaners, the rest seem to enjoy it.

[Red Moon]

I had to read it I'm a moderator.

[Jay]

I don't get what the big fuss is about, it's not hard to ignore a thread is it? i have to ignore the rubbish in other threads and i never moan about it. Just seems like people are out to ruin peoples fun so they get attention.

[MarkWaldorf]

Y E S.
:)

[Red Moon]

Admin will not be bullied into making any decision.

Since we all have to moderate any virtual big brother the idea will be discussed in admin,

Any campaign would be counter productive and is more likely for to turn us to go against the idea.

[MarkWaldorf]

What if we could have a virtual section? I know there's lot of online games that take place here. TiBB X Factor, TiBB BB etc. It would be easier to moderate.

[Chrizzle]

Thats why I wrote at the end: we are not trying to push
I wasnt 'campaigning' just asking.

The User Bar is so you can see how many people are pro-TiB BB.
I tried to be as polite as possible

[Bells]

The first TiBB BB was only kept to about 2 threads though, wasn't it? I think that could work, especially if it was only kept in a virtual section.

Yeah ok, but its ok for mods to take mickey out people being excited for BB8.

[Red Moon]

Is that an insult.... shame it might make up which I vote about the matter.

But I forgot I'm not allowed to get excited or have a bit of fun and post. I'm a mod.

[MarkWaldorf]

Taking the mickey is an insult, i don't really care no more warn me! most of you lick each others bums anyway, ive held back long time now and ive just had enough.

Sorry you feel that way Jay your a good member.

I haven't said I'm for or against it. All I have said that we have to decide as a group.

You request has been noted in the admin section and will be discussed,

Thanks thats all we wanted, we all feel like when we request something that the mod's don't like it and just say no to us without giving it some thought.

[Chrizzle]

I did try and do a polite plea, and said clearly that we would make it easier for you to moderate. Keep in mind that you find it hard, and not argue.

[andybigbro]

I Shall Add the Userbar to my SIg

[MarkWaldorf]

That's Great aNdy. Thanks For sharing The Info. :bigsmile:

(Kidding!)

[andybigbro]

Hahaha Funny

It great that its not even Info!:sleep:

[Dan_]

It is, you were giving information on changes to your sig :tongue:.

[Sunny_01]

you see this is one of the problems. You request something and if we say no we are the enemy.

Every request that is made is discussed in the admin section, we really dont take anything lightly, we talk through the pro's and cons and make a joint decision. We never do anything to spite the members, we make decisions based on the time we as a team can commit to things, and also what is best for the forum in general.

Often we are pressured into things that end up not used. Perfect example is the chat room that was longed for, people went on and on until we finally decided as a team to give it a trial run, get yourself in there and you will see the tumble weeds blowing around, it rarely gets used!

All we are asking for is the time to look at this from every angle and make a team decision. I have already stated how I feel about them, that said I will still look at it with an open mind.

[Chrizzle]

I understand that you dont like them, but the only problem I see is it will be hard to moderate.

But like I said, the contestants could take that into account, and we could make it a rule that you are not allowed heavy arguements.
Sol was on his own last time, but there are loads wiling to help out this time round, so it will be easier to control.

[Jay]

If it's hard to moderate get add new mod's, there you go problem solved :thumbs:

[officialleafan]

I never realised the effect it had on you all. I want it to happen, it would provide loads of entertainment, and get even more people on the forum. i'd audition for it.

[Legend]

What i don't understand though, if everyone really wants this to happen, what's the harm in doing it on another forum where you could have endless sections for it? I'm sure the members would be willing to spend 10 seconds registering on another forum, it would still be called 'TiBB BB3' but just done on another forum where you wouldn't have to squeeze everything into a couple of threads.

Plus, it would mean the Mods wouldn't have to read through endless pages looking for any rule breaks. Final thing, if it's on another forum then there could be endless arguing, swearing and you'd probably get a bit of virtual sh@gging from people on here. :whistle:

I think it sounds 10x easier personally.

[Chrizzle]

Like Ive said, we tried it, and it didnt work.
It was just the same as any other pointless VBB.

The different thing about TiBB BB, was it was for members of This is Big Brother, and members of TiBB only!

[Legend]

It only didn't work because the members didn't make it work, i'm sure if everyone wants it to happen as much as everyone says then it should be a success.

[officialleafan]

Also, there are viewers, those of you who don't want to be in it can vote for who you want to evict etc.

[Dan_]

Yeah,hardly any members from this forum registered there let alone bothered to watch/vote in it and even half the housemates seemed to forget about it.

The first one proved it can be popular on here and the 2nd one proved people just wont bother should it be on another forum.

[Chrizzle]

But we dont wanna make a VBB lol
We wanna make TiBB BB

On this forum.

[officialleafan]

What i am trying to say is...the people that want to go in can audition etc, the one's that don't can vote on the outside...

[Chrizzle]

Originally posted by officialleafan

yeah, we've had one on here before.
It was called TiBB BB1, and we werent allowed a second.

[Legend]

Oh okay, i really couldn't see it making a difference where it was done if people actually wanted to watch and take part in it but if it does then okay.

[officialleafan]

To think, i actually started this whole topic off :dance:

[Sunny_01]

We dont need new Mods or Admin we manage just fine, even during the busy BB period! so to suggest it for a game just isnt a good option.

Like I said we are discussing it and we will let you all know as soon as a decision has been made.

[Jay]

Can't we just do it and if it gets to much then stop it?

[andybigbro]

Wouldnt you Just be a veiwer Jay?

[Jay]

Yeah, it gives us something to do before BB kicks off.

[Chrizzle]

Besides, I want other membrs to experience what I experienced.

[andybigbro]

Yeah it was great fun

[officialleafan]

Which members would you all like to see go in??

[Chrizzle]

Anyone really, as long as we get to do it.

sol would be in charge of course.

[Jay]

Active members, in our one there were a few who didn't come on most days.

[officialleafan]

The people who are on often would get in...hope they do it...i still can't belive i kicked this whole campaign off :cheer2:

[Chrizzle]

Lol. To be fair we were campaigning back when TiBB BB1 ended last year.
But we forgot about it.

[officialleafan]

But i reminded you :laugh:

Lmfao. True. Most of them are members from 3/4 years ago and don't visit anymore. There's a few mods below who don't really visit.

Romantic Old Bird - I see her around sometimes.

Amy - Don't think I've ever seen her post.

BusyBee - Same with above.

Guyss, Iv'e just noticed what youv'e put as your custom status'.:nono:

I'm not on anyone's side with this. I see why the mods and admin wouldn't want one and I see why some members would. I really don't know why there is a big fuss over a game.

[Red Moon]

Originally posted by Sunny_01

A couple of other things to note is that some of the missing mods return for big brother itself and help out then. We don't need as many mod's this time of year as we do when the show is on. In addition to this some of the mod's you don't see because they don't post as much and they browse the board invisible. Only two of the mod's on the list is inactive and that is because outside commitments.

Do it on another forum where there aren't any rules and moderators to watch over you. Makes sense.

**** off Jay.. I was only suggesting something... no need to be sarcastic.

[Jay]

Sorry :tongue:

[lily.]

So, who's deciding about this ?

[~Kizwiz~]

The mods are talking it over

[Jay]

The Mod's i guess were just waiting for a answer.

[lily.]

Oh well. I hated it last time it was done. I kinda don't get it. How can you do a "virtual" BB??? It's impossible to emulate the conditions of BB. And, nobody was talkin on the other threads. How long is it guna go on for.. so I know how long to avoid TiBB?

That's why we're trying to get one now. So we can do it before BB8, then we're already for BB.
