The mods and admin both said resounding no's to the private section so that should not be debated anymore because it's utter pointlessness.

Exactly. I'm hugely in favour of bringing donations on to the site, I just don't want people being classed as more 'important' than other people just because they pay £1 extra than someone else. Perks are fine, don't see why we can't have them if we donate. But VIP sections and being called 'VIPs' are a big no no IMO.

Exactly, but even after they said that people still came with their 'ideas' of all these exclusive areas for VIPs only.

Well it's not going to happen so there's no point for either side to go on about it and since all the "elitism" theories are stemming from that then that's pointless to discuss further also.

The fact that there's drama/division at just the discussion of a separate section shows that a separate section would've caused drama. So this thread has already proven it IMO.

This forum is massive, it has over 10 years of content and member databases so no it couldn't be transferred over to one of those crappy free forums because the servers couldn't handle it for a start not to mention the amount of add ons and customisations that this forum has.

That said some people clearly aren't reading posts, no one said anything about the site needing money, just that if something like this suggestion was implemented then it could benefit from donations that would take place of the ad revenue that the forum used to have.

There also WOULD NOT be any private or seperate forums or sections.

why are people going on about private sections IT WAS JUST A SUGGESTION

I'm all for a TiBB VIP and if people are against it then don't sign up/donate, simple.

I know, but it's still in the OP and probably why there are so many 'no's :laugh: many (like myself and Drew) have said we're in favour of the idea without it (and the word VIP) and therefore the real "no" vote is much smaller.

For all of these complaints that there are too many naysayers there are just as many drama queens complaining that nothing ever gets implemented on this forum, or that it's always dead, and is never going to change. The whole point of discussion and debate on this topic is to work towards what's best for the forum.

This. I am well for a donations=rewards system as long as people aren't classed as more important than others.

:facepalm:

Can't people debate anymore

Of course he can have a say ,and people "over 21" have been attacked on here so often a lot of good members have left

How rude ? Im not broke ( far from it ) but I wouldnt subscribe as I come on rarely off season ,dont enter quizzes, "love me " elections ,and Sheriff has a right to his opinion

IF changes were introduced on here ,the one I would like to see would be a kiddies section and an over 21s section ,where adults could discuss BB in a grown up way

Terrible idea, I'd be willing to bet that the majority of the infractions we hand out are to people over the age of 21 so the idea of an exclusive board for older people based on the idea it would lead to mature discussion is a flawed one. Chances are it'll be used as a place to bitch about other members.

So no different to how it is now then?... Everyone has a good ol bitch even in the towers I'm guessing...

No Kizzy not like it is now considering there is no private sections atm so your post doesn't even make sense..

Agree with Dezzy 100% here, in fact most infractions are handed out to over 21's on here especially in the BB section during on season so to say over 21's would have adult discussions in a private section is ridiculous.

:thumbs::thumbs:

The over 21s do not argue with each other(or rarely ), just the cheeky kids :wink:

separating members based on their age is ridiculous

It makes perfect sense.... people on here bitch all the time don't they?
So whether they do it on here as they do now or in another section altogether makes no difference at all.

And you can never be sure who is over 21 and who isn't, or who is male and female either to be fair this is the internet.

Most members can be trusted about things like that..

And no people don't bitch all the time tbh.

You wouldn't believe the amount of members who have nudes floating around kizzy. :wink:
