GET OVER IT.
No-ones forcing you to watch it, for goodness sake.
Leave it alone, and get your own hobby

You don't have to moderate it though...
Here's the reasons I don't think VBBs are a good idea.
1. Last one caused loads of arguments, and people didn't seem to think the forum rules apply.
2. Moderating the last one was impossible, the last one was over 300 pages of posts. The Admin team here all agreed this and they wouldn't want to have to moderate another.
3. Some people on the forum feel excluded by it. Especially those who don't come on the forum as much and don't have time to participate in chatty topics (although they might not raise objections to it out loud). It can take the appearance of forum clique.
4. Last one had a rule which said those participating couldn't post anywhere else, which is no good at all for the forum. Especially when Big Brother is off and there is less to talk about.
5. VBB posts and threads tend to take over the forum and it appears that there is nothing else of interest here.
6. Some people created multiple usernames to vote for themselves in the game and take part in 'sock puppet' arguments.
7. I think there are more constructive discussions and more interesting ways to put an Internet forum to use.
