What can be done to save Tibb?
 
Seeing as Alfs thread has been closed and we were left with his question.....Where do we go from here?.....I hope this thread is acceptable as a positive discussion please guys of how Tibb can be saved?

What are your thoughts and opinions? Does Tibb need saving even? Or is it on a slippery slope? What would you do?

I think a increase in staff would help.

Now there's a man with a plan.

Just be nice to each other....respect the fact that we all have different opinions and people have reasons for their opinions whether you agree with them or not. Stop labelling people and name calling and sometimes just politely agree to disagree.
People should be able to express their opinions on people as often as they like and whenever they like.
This Forum was created to discuss human behaviour in The Big Brother House...there will always be people we enjoy discussing whether you like them or dislike them...

Wasn't that one of Jerry Springer's final thoughts?


In all seriousness, you're quite right.

Infact, dont ban any smileys..

I have hardly used them, and I do think it has effected or affected the way some posts have come across.

But today, I've just found out I can just type D then :, rather than having to hunt it on my mobile.


Tibb is now perfect for me, or will be once I learn the buttons for all smileys.

I think that forums are a dying breed when it comes to discussion platforms & how people choose to stay connected

The "instant messaging" style of .... other .... sites is much more appealing than having to try and find the relevant section/thread to post your thoughts in.

I don't actually know a single forum that is thriving rn. Maybe it's just becoming an outdated concept.

user104658 19-09-2021 02:23 PM

Realistically? Lobby the telly channels / streaming platforms to revive Big Brother and hope that it takes off with the public, and that in turn attracts new blood to the site.

With no changed to the current member base, nothing can be done to save it. Too entrenched, the place is at a complete stalemate.

Beso 19-09-2021 02:27 PM

It's just an off season that's too long for some to handle.

You're probably right, all the forums I go on, including ones for British comedy and Rugby league, are all far much quieter and slower than in the past.

It's strange, cause what with covid and that, you would think the figures would have risen.:shrug:

Genuinely not trying to start yet another argument rustic but reading this ... you surely can't genuinely believe that this is what's on offer in the threada bout H&M/Royalty in general? I'd love for there to be an actual good faith, unbiased debate about those issues but I've given up hope of that ever happening on this site.

They actually did for a couple of months, the forum was very active in April/May 2020 and everyone was getting on better than usual as well, because everything was so bizarre and crazy in the world. But then everyone got used to it and cabin fever started to set in and everyone ended up worse than usual :umm2:.

Well tbf....you have never got personal with me on this subject matter even though we completely disagree...and I know this because I have never felt the need to Report you..:laugh:
I mean you can be antagonising :laugh: (but I guess we all can be at times) but it never reaches a personal level.

You've even managed to soften the battle hardened rustic, softened her to a mushy happy smiley mess, all in one post.

Saving?

We are not at the level

because you are jumping years ahead, Kate.

I would prefer this not to be locked kate.

Judging by how every thread seems to turn into a flame war between members, maybe you all just don't like eachother and that's why TiBB died?

Well I'm not going anywhere...I still like a majority of the people on here. This is the only Forum I go on and I only joined it because of BB. I dont need or desire to be on a forum 24/7 so its nice to just clock in now and again and join in on subjects that I like discussing....

+1 right here.

And I only stayed after BB ended because I was asked to.

I do a 5 minute routine every morning, check facebook, check paddy power, check bank, catch bus.

Check ToncewasBB on the bus, then pop back every now and through the day to relieve the boredom.

Same here....I guess I have been on here more so since Lockdown...but starting a new job hopefully in a couple of weeks when my Isolation is complete..

Strictly Jake 19-09-2021 05:15 PM

I wouldn't say it needs saving. It is what it is now
it's a different place to what it was there are still great moments on here the fact that so many people have gone hasn't helped though. If big brother was to make a return I reckon this place could once again thrive with a lot of old and new members joining. But as for reality TV even love island isn't a huge topic on here. Strictly seems to be discussed though which is good. So the main focus has been serious debates and thats gonna cause division obviously

A good post and the sort of answer I was hoping for from the OP. I hope the place can once again thrive and attract new and old members back. Its a real shame how numbers have dwindled.

Mystic Mock 19-09-2021 05:41 PM

We need to maybe rebrand as a general Reality TV Forum.

Or add other sections of the Forum to get different types of members to be interested such as a Comic Book/Manga Forum, or an Anime Forum or a Science Forum dedicated to people interested in what current Scientific research is happening.

The only way this site will very maybe redeem itself is if BB actually came back. It will never be the same as it was, nothing ever is. Like other people have said it’s not just TiBB that is ****, forums in general aren’t what they used to be.

_Seth 19-09-2021 06:21 PM

Rebrand to "This is Reality," drop all the profile fields going back to 2009 for various reality shows, change the forum software or at least bring in a brand new light and dark theme and ditch the old ones and streamline the hell out of the forum index:

BIG BROTHER
General and Future Big Brother
Legacy Big Brother Series
Legacy Celebrity Big Brother Series
International Big Brother

ENTERTAINMENT
Reality Television
Scripted Television
Film
Music
Sport
Gaming

THE LOUNGE
Community Chat
Chat & Games
News & Debates
Adults Only
Fan Artwork Showcase

Personally I like the layout to your idea.
