Default OFCOM - BB - Coolio
I really hope that this is true!

OFCOM to investigate allegations of racial abuse by that hooligan Coolio. They'd do better to investigate his bullying and his lame attempts to justify it!

I just posted in another thread about his behaviour towards Mutya last night and to me that was the step over the line. He has no right to touch or manhandle anyone else

And water down BB? Might aswell watch CBeebies!!
No BB fan should want Ofcom to stick their nose into BB, will only make it lame and force BB to treat the housemates like kids! We will never have the same BB again that we all love thanks to Ofcom and Channel 4 walking on eggshells!!

Ofcom can Of-off!!

if they had dealt with it properly in Jade's case, OfCom would never have been used in this way. Although BB's disregard for voters with the whole Nikki thing was when people first realised they didnt have to accept it, and once the dam was broken.

Before I read about what he has done with Mutya last night, I would have said I want him out but there was no reason to kick him out,with the caveat.... from what they have shown us, but now I think he has crossed the line

Even though a dislike Coolio, I completely agree. It's becoming less and less like "reality" TV.

it was never "reality" from series one. Why else have they always had a "story editor"? They created a winner in the first seies to suit their need and chose to ignore some of the most revolting thing he did and it has always been the case since. In fact BB is about the only thing where technology has been used that year after year has been removed and cut back. That was their biggest mistake. They allowed us to see too much, especially on BB2 and since then they have cut back on it.

I didn't say it was reality in the first place but it's moving further away from the concept it originally stood for. Since CBB5, you can tell the producers are trying to stifle the behaviour of the housemates. If BB5 was post-CBB5 it would have been taken off the air after Fight Night.

I understand your dislike for coolio haters.

Only problem is you see him as the see all and end all like hes a king... he does no wrong which is worse.

Thats going a bit off the point. One thing I dont do on this forum is give one word responses to other folk who pose a point. It was a nice little post though and im sure we all got a little laugh.

Its getting stupid now, I don't get why people are complaining
The show will be even more cautious now, its getting to the point now that the housemates can't even do the slightest thing which annoys the public.

People need to set their dislike of a television character away from actualy being offended. Im betting most complained because they just happen to think Coolio is a bit of a twat. He is, but the show would be better off without Ofcom compaints!

It depends what you define as bullying. As for as I' aware bullying can be mentally physically or vocal, or any mixture of them.
