They are ridiculously strict.

I got my first ban from there for saying a FM was a hypocrite

Second for calling someone a hater

And third for calling RODRIGO a hypocrite...which I think is ridiculous but nevermind

I've never had an infraction/ban whatever you get over there, probably because I don't use it as much, but it does sound strict.

[chuff me dizzy]

I stopped going on when they started charging

Last night somebody wrote the thread: Sam Lovers Listen Up: which basically wanted fans of Sam to target Jo for Friday's eviction. I did a similiar thread under the title: Sam Haters Listen Up: which wanted people who hated Sam to vote Jo out anyway because she's soooooo boring. This is what I got sent today.

If that really worth a ban? Have you seen some of the s**t people write about Dave & other the housemates on DS which never gets reported? Anyway, this DS b*ll**** makes me realise that 'Thisisbigbrother' is the only forum to be at.

Rules are rules and although I have fallen foul of the DS mods from time to time, I do agree with them that the use of inflammatory language such as " haters" and "morons" is highly disruptive and such use should be dealt with severely .....

Yep...it's like an old fashioned witch hunt against Dave on DS...

Ben was their favourite son, so i think a lot of them still blame Dave - simply because he stayed over Ben. Most of their articles are biased crap!! Now Peppercorn is the "ducks nuts", so god forbid you say anything even remotely offensive about him. It's a shame that a public forum is so heavily influenced and edited to promote or degrade whoever they deem to be either important or irrelevant.

but if you loathe somebody you hate them and people shouldnt get banned for it either.

[AndyJK]

Digital Spy is the message board equivalent of a nanny state.

[psychtracker]

They should rename DS - "Club Peppercorn"...for the last couple of weeks.

A forum is there to discuss both good and bad points, thats why I like it on TiBB.

Sounds way to harsh and quite frankly boring over there.

LOL. Have you ever been on DS? Because anyone who has been would know that there is a LOT of negativity against the show. In no way are negative opinions banned.

It's hit and miss. There are some uber sensitive members who report anything and everything, like the one who reported you for those posts. The mods just don't care and ban/warn anyone reported more or less. But other times you can get away with much more and no one will care or report it.

Yeah I know.

I think the problem was, that when i called rodrigo a hypocrite...it was in the silly 'charlie and rodrigo squee' thread that they had going on. So anything negative about them was took really to heart

Ah bless that thread, it was actually hilarious

Whether you agree with the rule or not you were warned about the "haters" rule for the first post, and then continued to make another post (which was a pretty pointless post anyway, as it was saying essentially the same thing as the "Sam lovers" posts) in order to make some kind of point. With all due respect, it sounds to me like you were just being a dick for the hell of it. No Offense

Mate I don't use my e-mail account that's registered for DS. I only read these messages today after I found out I've been banned.

[luminoussun]

digi is controled by big brother and gets promoted by big brother.
They get favourites and defend them with a axe.

Ah right, in that case sorry dude.

[The Truth Is Out There!]

It doesn't seem to matter what forum you go on, the ones shouting HATE the most, are the Dave supporters! Seems to contradict what they supposedly believe in!!!

Dave Supporters Getting Banned On Digital Spy

Mate! Perhaps you shouldn't hide behind fake accounts and not try to influence UK TV programmes!

So you got banned for trying to say vote to evict Sam. Wonder why that was.

Don't you get it yet? Also, as DS are up the arses of BB of course they are going to push for Sam to win.

You just weren't towing the party line so you got chucked.

Tell DS to go ******* itself.

Regrettably, since PEJ became a DS:BB Forum Member, this is now true .....

At the start of BB11, I made some disparaging comments about the production values of the series and also reported "pej" for insulting other FMs ..... it seem that he can't take criticism - despite being a member of long standing and with over 20k posts, within minutes, I was permanently banned on a 6 year old technicality .....

Fake account? My e-mail to join DS is from my original IP provider & I've given that computer to my father so that's why I never check on my messages.

No I was saying even if you hate Sam, Jo should be the one evicted on Friday night.

Most DS members are freaking idiots anyway.

To be fair, Bennites do that on here with John James. They've convinced themselves he's to blame for Ben's eviction, and he's been unable to do right in their eyes since then.

But yeah, DS is ridiculous. Very BB4...
