That post makes me incredibly angry (not at you, Lewis :P) because you're putting yourself down for being creative. I don't think it's fair that people tell you that you're annoying for coming up with ideas, and it's even worse that you're agreeing with them! You're a good poster, you've stuck around for 5 months and you've already contributed a lot, and hey, everybody knows who you are :tongue: so you've got to be doing something right! And thank you Angie, I get quite riled up when I see wrong being done :hugesmile:. |

I think that was probably what drove him away from here. |

I think Ross has made a really good point.
I don't think it's so much recognising and praising the person that needs to happen. More just making sure to remember what the forum is really about, BB and not getting too carried away with unrelated or private jokes. Or rather just make sure you do actually respond to the thread question as well as the other stuff. It's not like it's getting really bad or anything at all! But all these stupid tedious comments or people replying with a completely unrelated BB comment are starting to really get on my nerves. (And I've only been posting for the last few days (recently) ) |
I find it really annoying to traipse through millions of quotes to get to the point of a thread sometimes...

People just like to read posts by those they know and those they don't really know they just kind of skip past. I mean its quite obvious in things like TiBB nominations where you're supposed to nominate on posts, but hardly anyone does. Thats quite obvious with the names that are said and the reasons. I include myself in all of that.
Just picking out an example I think one of the most overlooked people on here definitely has to be pinkmichk- great poster but doesn't really get involved with pointless chat, "friendships" etc but sometimes her posts with a really good point get lost in the middle of a thread of people who are just talking to eachother. |

So very true, the other point to remember about "good" posts and oppinions is... its harder to add to them apart from quote the entire post they have written. Posts which have no content such as this example are then often ridiculed or not allowed, which adds to the increasing pressure on the poster who wants to support such an oppinion. More often than not Pink does leave such good value posts which I have come across and can only quote with a one line support. What is good about this thread is at least now it has highlighted who is a good poster and what is a good post, and some reasons why there not always so obviously recognised. Its always easier highlighting the bad posts:wink: |

I see what you're saying, but in fairness this kind of thing is almost characteristic of a forum.
You're likely to quote people you get on with, although it'd help if this kind of thing was generally kept to a select few threads rather than everywhere - where it's possible for newer/less active members to feel awkward about it. Having said that, in threads where there's lots of discussion, I'd hope that most members do read most of the post in order to take in all the views on board. And even if they don't, the main thing is that everyone feels comfortable enough to post their views and not worry about any other alternative discussions/debates that are going on. Sometimes it can be difficult breaking in to a long chain of quoting/debating, and I respect those who do it in order to get a thread back on track. |

I mess around a lot too.. I guess it's when you do it on a thread which has a debate goin, ppl get annoyed.. haha.. I do that too though.. so am not preaching to you about it..

Jen, this wasn't directed at you in any way.
I just mean the forum as a whole. I'm not stopping anyone from posting what they did before, I'm just saying people need to read the majority of everyones posts in a thread. Not just their friends. |
But but but .. Ross... your posts distract me from all the others.. .. such is ma adoration of you..
|
Ive noticed that,Also i hate when the younger members get picked on and beliddled(Is that the right word? lol).
Lewis made a good point the other day,it was about a game he was running everyone wa giving him stick he said if it was a popular member evryone would love the idea.Which i agreed with. It seems people dont give members a chance therefore their posts get overlooked Such as RayHeartBliss hes a brilliant poster but never seems to get recognized. Some members get satisfaction from ganging up on some members also which is pretty sad when we are on a Big Brother forum. I hate when some members write like ILY or Fail or something its like :sleep: they probably didnt evan read the post. :thumbs: |

It was a point I noticed late but as it was sufficiently made by Billy I left my contribution out as I didnt want to "clutter" another thread, maybe I should of merely quoted him and risked a mini (if any) backlash from other members who dont like "non content" posts. But your right Mambosambo and I also agree about Rayhaertbliss being a very able and good poster too. Now they have been attributed aswell says a lot for this very good and timely thread. |
Tbf, Rayheartbliss does sometimes just post "lol" "o_O" etc which gets frustrating.

It's like I said (one of the few times I left) this forum is very, very cliquey, and it kind of makes you feel left out if you aren't in this "special" clique. |
I'm apprecting AyeAye_XO's view on Chavs, I think it's brilliant that she's fighting the stereotype today, I think she deserves credit for it. = )
