the way that you framed the question they won't say they arfe from Ireland now, they will probably say they are from another country.

I wonder why people are fans of him to be honest. I can't see one nice thing about him, and I know the great majority feel the same, so it puzzles me. I've seen people ask (as I have) in threads, why do you like Conor, but they don't answer. He is (imo) one of the most vile specimens BB have ever put in the house.

Not going to lie, the only reasons I've seen for liking Conor is 'he hates Deana just as much as I do' and 'He's from Derry, we got to represent' (not saying all of Derry are supporting him, just that's all I've seen)

MTVN 12-07-2012 12:19 PM

Well sometimes it can seem a bit pointless and gets tiresome having people trying to force you to justify yourself when you're only going to get shouted down about what a vile thug he is :idc:

We can only form our opinions on him based on his actions though, if he didn't behave like a vile thug in so many people's opinions, then people wouldn't feel so strongly about him.

I wonder why people care so much if he has fans or not?

I think the people calling him a nasty vile thug, wife beater etc are over reacting, I like him, he's being himself, he went through a bad patch and he got angry with Deana and yes I think he was wrong to say what he did, but everyone gets angry at some point in thier life do they not? and I dare say in there it would be a lot worse than it is in day to day life, I don't care if he dislikes Deana thats up to him but IMO he's been a better housemate than a lot of them in there, he also seems to have calmed back down a bit now.

He must have more fans than what you sem to think too since he's still in there.

Eh when have I got personally offended :S

MTVN 12-07-2012 12:49 PM

Also if you saw BOTS last night you'd have seen another side to him that just an angry thug, the bit with Benedict giving him the class clown title and that montage they showed of him, yeah he has a short fuse (and I bet it takes a lot less to snap in an environment like that) but he also tries to make light of a lot of situations and have a laugh, plus he's always been loyal to his friends in there which is more than you can say for most of them. Whether you like him or not you also can't really deny he's been one of the biggest characters and talking points in there this series, and that's the sort of thing that a show like Big Brother thrives off, I do actually find him an interesting person to watch.

He never said that to Deanas face though, if he had actually said what he did face to face then my opinion would probably have been different but he never so I stand by my opinion that I previously posted.

I did see BOTS last night and nothing I saw made me feel any differently about him, it's hard to change your conceptions of someone when they make you feel very uncomfortable just to watch them, however I acknowledge you have put forward valid reasons for liking him, as has Josy ^, it's the first time someone has offered a concrete reason (that I have seen) so fair play. I'll concede that my opinion of him is based on what light BB have shown him in, as I said in another thread about Shievonne, they can only show what really happens BUT... to be logical and fair, they also can choose to show all the bad side of a particular housemate and very little good, so maybe my opinion of him would have been a bit better, I don't know. But it was the epilator rant that did it, and I think that's what all the people that dislike him so strongly what say is the main reason as well. If that isolated incident hadn't happened I'd probably just feel Meh about him.

The fact he didnt say it to her face doesnt make it better IMO. In fact, the way he said absolutely NOTHING to her makes it worse. Surely if he's keeping it real then he'd have had it out with her.

Jords 12-07-2012 01:06 PM

What has he done for you to like him?

"Been himself" ... is being an arsehole ok as long as its really you? Really? Plus I swear the other day he admitted hes gone really bitchy and thats not him, so theres a dilemma for you. Is he bitchy or is he not being himself?

Hes done nothing but act an aragant arsehole - whines and threatens to leave when things dont go his way (and knowing enough about MTVN and Josy, you normally hate stuff like this and would normally tell them to f off then), and he has singled out and been very verbally aggressive directly (DR with Arron) and indirectly (epilator rant) constantly towards Deana. And yes its either bordered or been bullying, which either way, is not somebody anyone should support.

Hes had a limited amount of funny moments, such as jumping out the hot bath, but far from enough for people to want to support him.

In all honestly, I get the impression his fans just like to come across a bit controversial by supporting a cock :shrug:

I watched BOTS too,and I don't have any kind of respect for benedict so his opinions don't interest me.
He should not have been given a place in the house if his fuse is so short, it is not conducive to a positive environment.
Misguided loyalty is not a commendable quality in my book, there are many characters that have played an equally large role in the house without the aggression.

He says absolutely NOTHING to anybody's face. Hes an out and out utter coward.

Not a fan but I dont think hes quite as bad as hes being made out to be. And from reading FB comments, the majority say they like him because they hate deana...which makes no sense whatsoever to me (or that they are from his hometown...theres LOADS on there from Derry it seems :laugh: ) but a few say just coz hes one of the lads etc etc, or are former Arron fans who switched to conor.

I just watched Arrons eviction last night, and I found it quite funny how brian asked his girlfriend if he was being himself, and she said yeah...then he said 'so what we are seeing is the real conor?!' and she backtracked immediately :joker:

MTVN 12-07-2012 01:22 PM

One more thing I will say is that we are watching Big Brother, it's late night trashy reality TV, I don't expect high moral standards from the people on there and I don't expect to necessarily really like someone as a person to be a fan of them. I said he was being a dick with his epilator rant, nobody really sought to justify that and I don't deny that he has the potential to be a bit of a *****, but I'd also say that from what I've seen he's shown he can also just have a laugh and be quite a nice guy, there's been a couple of times when he's sat and cheered up Ashleigh and stuff, and he's always joined in and gotten involved with things. So what if he doesn't say things to Deana's face, they all bitch about each other in there, at least he keeps out her way and doesn't seek out big arguments with her. It's quite ironic that she goes on telling Conor to "say it to my face" and then sits there bitching about Lauren as well. Tbh I was away last week and haven't seen all the episodes from then so can't really comment on him wanting to leave.

But at the end of the day the point of this show is that the housemates and incidents are always gonna divide opinion, I don't see why people should be surprised that someone likes, or has a different view on a housemate to the one they hold. It'd be a pretty boring program and even more boring forum if we were never gonna disagree on anything

Edit - also it isn't even really like Conor's my favourite or anything, I pretty much lost my 3 favourites all in a row, I'd just say he's one of the best out of a pretty bad bunch of housemates left in there

Jords 12-07-2012 01:25 PM

To be honest on this occasion itd be great if everybody came together and thought yeah, what a dickhead lets get him out.

It seems so immature to like Coner because he hates Deana.
I think Coner sealed his own death warrant with that vicious out of control temper of his,it wasn't just someone being angry,it was someone who was portraying violence,in the worst way,at that moment,he lost any chance he may have had to win BB.imho.
