It's not even James' place to get involved though. Why does he feel the need to defend Janice when she's shown plenty of times that she's more than capable of doing so herself? It just seems to me like he wants to find a fault in everything Austin does, which is absolutely not something a friend would do.

I agree, any of my friends trying that with me would not stay friends of mine for long after.

It's James who has fallen...under Janice's spell. Who's to say Jenna hasn't changed her opinion of Austin? They're both well aware that they haven't always seen eye-to-eye and had a few ups and downs, but at the end of the day they're both Team America and Austin has never hated Jenna anyway. James has ruined any friendship they had all by himself.

The only person who was a prick was Janice. Who lost them a letter, just as she has purposely lost them every game just to get a bit of attention for herself. Then with Austin rightfully mad at her, she flings his letter at him. SO much for being apologetic.

Then she goes and sits right in the middle of them as they're talking, just to try and inflame the situation further.

Austin is bang on the money about her and it is utterly amazing that people here defend her. Horrid cow.

I'm liking him more recently <3 I'd be fine with him winning

I don't agree. If Janice is manipulative or not, it is Big Brother and not real life. She tried to apologize several times but was rebuffed so she threw his letter away. As for sitting there, good for her, she has guts, far better than going away and get in bed as so many of them do.

Austin is a hot head and fool, no one else goes off like him and many stood up for Janice at the time.

It is not Austins house because he shouts the loudest.

An apology from Janice is meaningless so why should he accept it

Same bb. I think austin is one of those people who thinks if you dont agree wth him 100% or you dont hate the same people he does you are a traitor. I agreed with what james said-yes it was bad that janice chose austins letter to get rid of but austin shouldnt be talking to janice theew way he has past few days. Its a real shame because apart from that i liked austin.

Janice comes across as having a few bolts missing if you get my drift, it doesnt appear she makes those mistakes shes done on purpose.

What has that got to do with anything? Either she contrives these situation for attention or she doesn't. In my opinion she does. The woman is a total fake who knows exactly what she's doing and it's despicable.

No, she responded to him "Sssh-ing" everyone by taking his letter and throwing it at him. That was disgraceful.

Oh FFS. Give me a break. She deliberately attempted to inflame the situation even further after having once again ****ed up a task to get herself attention, then thrown his letter at him... The woman is ****ing evil.

He's the only one with the no-bull**** attitude to tell the truth about the woman.

And none of them stood up for her when she threw his letter at him. They were trying to keep him calm because they knew full well what she had done was disgusting. Which apparently people here, along with James, don't.

Bizarre.

What's to like, he's just gearing the public up to support him when he backstabs Austin.

Complete tool

I do love Janice & Chlovi, but he deserves to win IMO, he's been a very mature polite person, with very good views and always stands up for whose in the right, wether there his pal or not, which I see as mking a great HM

:cheer2:

:clap1:

I agree OP.Someone needs to knock that little creep Austin down a peg or two.

I think James is one of the best HM's ever to grace the CBB house. He has maturity, class, sound moral values and a good sense of the house dynamics. All in all, I'm very impressed. He's a young guy with a very mature head on his shoulders. I don't think he's playing a game at all. He seems too much of a straight shooter for that. But IF he is, then it comes from a good place of values and true feelings and he's playing the game morally. He is worth a hundred Austin's - who is an insensitive loud mouth who gangs up on you with his new sidekick Jenna if you don't agree with his every move and word. He can't take constructive criticism AT ALL.
Don't forget that Austin's loyalty to James has never been tested as James has never said anything horrible to someone that Austin likes or feels should be respected. Not that I think Austin cares about anyone but himself anyway...

Seems that a lot of posters feel that way too...it's strange to me. I have many close friends and we don't agree on everything, yet we treat each other's opinions and feelings with respect. That the kind of friend I prefer, not someone who follows my line of thinking all the time...and dislikes someone just because I do.

That type 'we all have one mind and one opinion' friendship is immature and so high school.

Personally I think Janice is a bit batty but also an opportunist but if as you say she is playing one big game then it's a brilliant game and she totally deserves the win. It's not despicable at all. Austin needs to grow up a bit.

So Janice can be a complete and utter wanker to Austin, but Austin can't be a wanker back to Janice because she's older?:conf:

Wtf sort of morals is Ch5 trying to feed it's viewers here?

Janice is definitely not an angel...and yes, she has provoked Austin.

No one is angry at Austin for being annoyed by Janice, I think most people are disgusted at how (and what) he screams at her. It's like Farrah 2.0. You can have a justifiable argument but when you start to abuse and scream...you've lost the plot and even if you're right...you are in the wrong. This is Austin's problem.

You can't be in the wrong when you've got the most valid points, that's how an argument is won, Austin can go and look like his gonna knock her out as far as I'm concerned but if his got the most valid points in the actual argument then his still in the right imo, but just gone the wrong way about it.

Not everybody is Robotic like James who thinks about the public's reaction to his behaviour every hour that we see them for.

That is EXACTLY what James and been trying to say to Austin...over and over and over and over again. All Austin hears James saying is 'I'm taking Janice's side" or "I'm taking Chlovie's side". That is not true. James has agreed that Austin was right, he just can't stand how Austin reacts about it.

James is far from Robotic...but he is a lot more mature. He has showed this same restraint all through the series, from day 1,...with everybody he argues with. It's obvious that this is his demeanor and not a game play tactic.

When James gets to the point that he can tell he's going to lose it, he walks away...Austin, on the other hand, just loses it.

Austin has been honest and loyal to James. James, on the other hand, while being honest with Austin, he did not have to nominate Austin. That's just straight up backstabbing, game playing. He's not a loyal friend at all. No longer supporting Jaustin, just Austin. :(

If James nominated Austin he gets a massive round of applause from me
the guy has got balls! And they say he's boring. He's far from it. He takes **** from no one, not even Austin. Who has been extremely rude and obnoxious. I would have nominated him too. Bia behaviour has been bang out of order.

I'm sorry but James is about as real as Natasha's face.

And he only says that he understands where Austin's coming from because he doesn't want to lose Austin as an ally and lose his fans to inherit once Austin gets evicted, ironically though his doing just that by beating around the bush too much.:joker:

Good luck to him when it comes to inheriting Austin's fans after already burning bridges with the Farrah fans as well.

so true, james is backstabbing fake patronizing scumbag with no backbones.
