Is it within forum rules to create and promote vote rigging
 

I want to start a campaign to gwt every hms fans to vote raph out but i am sure i read it was against forum rules..

Just thought i would ask before i started my one man campaign cause i have seen an awful lot of this snake like activity on the forum this week.

how the hell can you rig the votes? i guess you can do what ever as long as you're not trying to trick forum members into voting for someone they didn't want to vote out e.g. the old 'well I called this number and it's not working, rig!'

There are a few forum threads where different fans of different hm are all trying to get people to block vote one hm....low and pathetic.

we're voting on a lowbrow reality show I wouldn't really call anyone low or pathetic for voting strategically :laugh:

Smells like 'Obsession' from Malvin Slein! :laugh3:

Oh come on, everyone wants Tom out :joker:

I dont...

One of the better hms.

:o

I want chanel out, how can i go about that. she lowers the tone of the show

Someone's sensitive

Im not bothered about raph as sneaky little ****s only have a fan base which comes from forums and dont represent the gbp that actually do vote. Its ok voting on here when it costs nothing and you only get one vote, but i the real world avid vans that do vote might throw 20 votes for their favs and Raph wont get those voters.

BB has past history of nudging voters in the direction they want by revealing the state of play.

This is just the first time we have the complete score.

I'm putting at least 20 on Chennelle, but i won't now do it until the eviction night, as I don't want BB trying to influence the vote

Ask politely

The GBP voted last night and only 0.94% wanted him out.

isnt that what you want to do?

How is that rigging?

Campaigns are fine. Giving out fake numbers is not and is something people have had had warnings for already this eviction. Pretending one vote number is for another housemate and that

Yeah people can urge others to vote for whoever they want, that's not rigging anything :shrug:

No you're doing it wrong.You need to evict David Dickinsons shin bone on this number -
090 20 44 58 17 or 6 50 58 17

So let me get this straight - campaigning for a housemate to leave/ stay is considered "vote rigging"? Does that same logic apply to elections? - So is a Super Pac, knocking on doors or private monetary donations to a political campaign also vote rigging? :think:

It's Big Brother? I don't think you can lower the tone anymore that it already is.

the vote isn't being rigged unless the voting figures are being falsified or a particular eviction line experiences a "technical fault" etc

Canvassing for votes, the choice is still with the reader whether to agree or disagree

I thought that'd be worth a ban at the complete minimum tbh, warning is far too lenient.. Taking away members hard earned money and even guests of the forum, which would certainly prevent them signing up. I'd imagine that to be far worse than creating an argument or derailing a thread [I'm someone who voted for the wrong person last year through a false number on here and reported it].

Is there anyway to ensure this is worth a ban at the complete minimum to stop members doing it, as it is essentially a scam, and it was rather annoying to see this forum member continue to post false numbers despite reporting them.

However, campaigns are totally fine, and if a HM is friends with other HM's it makes sense for their fans to encourage other fans of that HM to evict their enemies, makes complete sense to me.

I ve been on here 7 years and I ve seen it everytime - I dont know if its right but at least its obvious when people are doing it. Anyway the only way to vote is for Tom/Ellie otherwise we are going to split the vote. This is the worst BB for years and to think of who could be left in the final few days if people vote out every interesting character is tragic.

We need - passionate firey people in there - personally if wasn't tacticle I would want Raph out but if we dont Tom out it will be Hannah out - it has to be Tom.

Tom cant fake his way to the final, with his non existent personality - he doesn't deserve it -he has been a brown nose all series to Lotans little crew nothing more.
