Default What will happen to this place when it all wraps up for good this September?

And for that matter the likes of BBSpy and IBB? DSBB will just collapse into DS's archives along with other deceased reality shows but will the rest adapt to cover foreign versions of the show, be kept open but empty as a record of the show or just die down till their admins pull the plug on them?

There's at least one I saw the other day that has started to re-brand itself to cover other areas of TV.

I imagine TiBB will go further down the toilet and the few remaining members who care enough will either stay or migrate somewhere else.

I hope not! I only joined yesterday yet this is, by far, they best and busiest forum I'm a member of. Surely it will just be a forum for other reality TV shows?

I think it's actually a lot slower than normal. You should see all the boards once it actually starts.

I was thinking that. Yesterday was extremely busy compared to what I'm used to, so I can only imagine what it's like when BB kicks off.

I imagine they will rebrand it for X-Factor but it will mainly be a place for off topic chat. That's kind of what it's been for years really. Big Brother usually takes a backseat and it's generally just a forum for the people on here to talk to each other.

It's certainly busy but it's nothing compared to what it used to be, both in terms of quanity and quality.

Don't let me put you off though .

By far the busiest forum I use or have used is D.S., it's ranked in the top 40 largest in the world, number 1 when measured on certain metrics.

Though I also consider it the best, though when I first joined, three years younger and four or five years more naive, I wasn't too keen on it, with a more mature membership than this place they don't go as easily on you or at least they didn't, don't know if it's just that I've become one of them but they seem to be less arsey these days.

I used to use that one, stopped early BB8 when I lost interest in said series. I see they didn't cover CBB.

It's odd looking back on now (pretty much) dormant sites you used to use and their now (pretty much) desserted forums and chatrooms.

Get together every summer, watching it rain, listening to sad love songs.

Do we really want to subject potentially vulnerable mentally disabled clients to the net though

[Wait ... ]

Oh yeah, we already done that.

The people who watch the Real World are the same kind of people who watch BB
Funnily enough you sound just like the people who turn there noise up at Big Brother, when they have never watched it and have no idea what it is about.
