Why is Dexter getting bashed on these forums recently?
 
I'm not gonna lie I like him so maybe I'm taking a biased view but I really dont see what he's done wrong recently. I've asked this before and nobody can give a proper reason to what he's doing wrong.

Cherie 22-07-2013 06:15 AM

I honestly can't see what he has done wrong either, for me he has been pretty consistent throughout the series, some people didn't like the fact that he nommed Gina, but she has nommed him in the past, I think because they were in the safe house together they are meant to be joined at the hip, Gina has said some stuff about Dexter since they came out of the SH but that seems to get overlooked. All I can think is people jumping on the bandwagon :shrug:

BigBuk 22-07-2013 06:24 AM

Yeah completely agree, when I see him bitching about someone I'll respect their opinion but there is nothing that I can see of what he has done wrong. I dont see how you cant like him, he's just too funny & unique.

I don't understand why everyone in the house keeps blaming Dexter or Callum in turns for this whole mess, when it's obvious the problem is Charlie keeping them fighting so she can get camera time.

Its human nature, not everybody will like who you like & not everyone will see Dexter the way you do.

This, everything that happened on Friday night was down to Charlie, and to a certain degree Hazel and Sophie (who sat there and lapped up Dan moaning about it though she was clapping and encouraging Dexter to get under the show from behind her VIP ropes). Charlies serious chats are beginning to do my head in as well, she is loving the attention and Hazel and Dan are hating her getting it.

I get that, but what I don't get is blaming Dexter for just about everything, he is not responsible solely for the Love Triangle...Charlie is probably more to blame, and BB for pushing it.

JTM45 22-07-2013 07:05 AM

It's just bored, sad people with nothing better to do it seems!
Because they have an irrational level of dislike for a particular housemate (Dexter this week) who usually happens to be extremely popular they think by starting lots of very similar threads with slightly different titles bashing the housemate and making often false or highly exaggerated and negative claims (Twitter/Facebook hates this housemate today, my favourite housemate is now my least favourite housemate, this housemate is gay, etc. etc.) that it will somehow convince fans of this housemate that they have backed a wrong-un and should jump ship now before they look foolish.
I personally find the idea that anyone with half a brain-cell would be swayed by such ridiculous idiocy hysterical and it just annoys people on the forum and blocks the forum up with loads of similarly laughable threads on exactly the same subject.

I think it makes the people who do it look like *****-tards!:thumbs:

Dexter is such a great housemate that he creates resentment and envy in the other housemates and their fans.

Ye i know what you mean, he isnt solely responsible but he was the one who instigated the Love Triangle, it seems he purposely did it to wind Callum up when he knew Callum does have feelings for Charlie and that just doesnt look good to some. Blaming him for everything is a bit OTT imo.
I agree with you about Charlie & BB, they have tried to milk it.

Because people change their opinions based on what they see on the highlights each night.

reece(: 22-07-2013 07:33 AM

Because Wolfy/Jackie/Sallie are all gone so they need a new hate figure.

Kizzy 22-07-2013 08:23 AM

Not at all in my case, I quite liked him when he and gina were in the safe house, since he came out he has got much worse with his stirring between the groups. The contrived rivalry between he and callum is boring.

chuff me dizzy 22-07-2013 08:34 AM

Some have seen the light with him,others never liked him from day one

They do indeed, I can like someone the night before then another night find them really annoying.
It doesn't mean I have come to dislike them just that I haven't liked what I have seen them do.

That has happened all this series so far and with every housemate with me.

Marc 22-07-2013 08:36 AM

I really think he's a twat

Livia 22-07-2013 08:39 AM

I think people are waking up to the idea that he's like a bad Howard Wolowitz Tribute Act, only sleazier and without Howard's charm and education. He does have the hair though.

Im_Juz_ChiLLin 22-07-2013 08:48 AM

the answer is gina... they see him as the biggest rival that's why so many thread are popping up they see dexter's popularity rising.... ;)

We could also say it's 'bored,sad people who bang on about his 'greatness' even when he's not,people are allowed to like other housemates without getting flack from the Dexter lovers,he is not all that he is average IMO.

smeagol 22-07-2013 09:06 AM

people also hate what they cant understand and no one understands dexter

people look for reasons to hate they do it inside the house to him as well its strange to watch.
same thing with deana last year. being blamed for everything lol and hated for nothing

swinearefine 22-07-2013 09:11 AM

I'm baffled by it, he seems the same as he always has to me. I'm actually starting to like him more just because he's been such a dick to Callum.

Vicky. 22-07-2013 09:13 AM

It always happens when we get closer to the end of the show. Expect a boatload of Gina hate to appear from nowhere soon too ;)

JTM45 22-07-2013 09:34 AM

It really seems to be mostly on this forum. If you check out some of the other BB forums there's nothing like the amount of negative threads about Dexter, quite the opposite if anything!

He's the fourth favourite with the bookies to win, now above Sophie, Charlie and the twins!!!!! Woot!!!:dance:

Livia 22-07-2013 09:36 AM

Fourth favourite... LOL. So not even top three. Just to put that into perspective.

:sleep::sleep::sleep::sleep::sleep::sleep::sleep:: sleep:

It's still higher than Hazel, Sophie, Charlie, The twins and Callum. Six people below him and only three above and he's still on the rise!:dance:
Enough perspective for you! :xyxwave:
