We have a number of Jedward fans on here, most of whom don't seem to feel offended because it's just Big Brother and not something to really get personal about. But yes when a user explicitly insults another member that is against the rules, as is posting negative comments in fan threads, and I can only suggest reporting the posts when it does happen otherwise they can fly under the radar

Comments of the nature which I highlighted here in this thread, are posted with frequency. I report them enough times as we are instructed to do - and receive infractions because when I do, the tibb site jams, it looks as though reports dont go through, you try again not realising that in between the site 'hanging' the alert does actually go through, the system doesn't acknowledge confirm that coz it's still showing as still 'hanging' ... so what happens... you get punished because the tibb server/site is failing, for reporting the very rules breaks that you are advising that should be reported!!!
You couldn't make it up if you tried
Maybe now this has been highlighted, it might put an end to it? Here's hoping!
I really don't like jedward, I'm far from a fan - I think that as much as it may have been a bit boring without them, I also think they've ruined what could have been a better show. I'm happy to banter with the Jedites and have a bit of fun - and I hope, without offending or insulting them.
