I couldn't agree more. I personally find them a bit offensive, but to each his own! :hugesmile:

lmfao don't pretend they were based around avatars :laugh2:

your causing all the drama in here, and seen as though the last thing you seem to want is drama, it would be advisable for you to leave, no?

i did not like picking the avoid

ness did you see who i marry

Just Lock the thread, i'll wait for someone else to make a thread like this

Bit dramatic that.

Saying you would avoid certain members is like having a sly dig but covering it up as a game.

apple come on man chill

:worship::worship::worship:

well people voted that way.

I made mine (of Raph and Saph) because it was an acknowledgement of how similar their names were.

:rolleyes: and this is exactly why i avoid coming on here now. Jenna - It's not worth you making threads for it to be thrown back in your face by members who think they have the upper hand. It's seriously rude. :hug: Hope you're okay.

Tbh it's not dramatic, if someone more favoured made a thread similar to this, it would be fine :)
Just lock the thread.

One massive overreaction in here. If we're allowed threads like 'how do you wipe ur ass' (which I've no problem with...if you don't like it, don't read it) then we're allowed much tamer threads like this.

Ok, would you like us to word it differently, perhaps "Snog, Marry, neither snog nor marry but neither avoid because that would be mean"?

We already have The Razzies for this kind of stuff. Isn't it enough?

..don't you understand what Josy and Shaun are saying Munchkins..?..maybe if you change the 'avoid' to something positive instead because it's the same as saying you don't like a member...

Awwwwww! Thanks, Marcus! :hug:

EXACTLY Josy,some people seem to have the need to have their ego stroked constantly at the expense of others.

SNOG, MARRY, I LIKE YOU BUT NOT IN THAT WAY?
how's that lol, sorry i cant think of another way to put it :p unless theres other versions of this game?

oh that's actually quite a good point Ness

How come the razzies never seem to get this reaction, it's always passed off as light hearted? :conf: Yet now Munch has made a similarly light hearted thread, it's called sly and mean? :laugh2: ?

I don't care if you want to make thread games, because others do and they're successful so it's fine, it's just the format of "avoid" that's clearly going to upset people.

No one said the thread wasnt allowed Jack?

My ego is never stroked on here :joker:, in fact it's constantly belittled LOL

You must be having a laugh? :laugh:

Why is this thread not locked yet?

Well some people seem to be suggesting that it'll lead to arguments (I don't) hence why I assumed mods would see fit to close it :conf:

If it won't be closed then forget what I said.

I meant that The Razzies is enough for these kind of things. Why do we need more ?

People shouting it down and not allowing it just to carry on, is kinda not allowing it

Do you mind, I see that :laugh: as being a sly dig

But i said that myself:conf: still doesn't disguise the fact i'm targetted a lot..

If I thought it should be closed I would have done so already.

Some members wont take kindly to others saying they would avoid them and could report it as an insult, hence the reason it could end in an argument.

ok that was funny but still leave pls

The titles been changed now anyway

ok so next 3:

anytime ness
:hug:

oh kazy you not left out you snog

If people would honestly take offence at being told another member would 'avoid' them in a light-hearted game on a Big Brother forum, well...actually do you know what, I'm lost for words.

The game works by posting three names, you've no idea who is going to be next to post so you've no idea who on that list they may dislike. The person who chooses 'avoid' is obviously going to choose the person they know the least or get on with the least, why would the other person take offence at that when they'd surely know said member dislikes them/doesn't know them that well? Hopefully I've explained that alright...not sure if it makes sense.

The only way this could possibly end up in arguments is if only a few players that get on well are playing, posting two names of people they like and one they all dislike in a bid to get a dig in. If that happens then fair enough, otherwise why can't the game just go ahead in a fair manner.

Lol at anyone who gets offended for being 'avoided' on an forum.

:joker::joker:

Kazanne stop laughing at my expense! you know i'm really offended!
