It all adds up to a horrible shitstorm, really. It's just one of those forums that combines an overinflux of members, heavy handed selective moderating, and people for whom this forum is actualy their main social output in life.

Revel in the chaos or something .

Lol, Im one of the sixteen hour people, but just on my days off work, but Im doing other things as well....admittedly its lying around in my boxers whilst saying 'its too hot'.

Although I am new, and I dont want to seem to be exlcuding myself from saying this, I wonder if the death of the C4 forum has led to many of those members moving on to other forums.

I get annoyed mostly by the campaigning threads

It's been about two years since I have had a warning so I am hardly speaking on my own behalf from some selfish perspective. So your about as wrong as can be. Take a look at things before you post, man. I just see hoards of absoloutely disgusting threads continue on, then sometimes a mod will decide to step in and sweep a few certain things under the carpet without explaining a single thing and with some smug sense of higher purpose. Which leads to more confusion.

I've moved here from BBOL and, as a new member, I don't really have the right to criticise.
However, I do get what you mean about trolls and the like - with most threads you have to scroll past loads of abuse being hurled at other posters, short posts with nothing to say, and huge signatures.

On the plus side, there's some excellent characters here whose posts I really enjoy, even if I don't always agree with them. That's what keeps me coming back - and I haven't notice all that much moderating, selective or otherwise.

This is just it.

There seems to be real sub culture here now of people trying to be the most disliked on the board, so wannabes troll and antagonise in an effort to become 'infamous'.

I guess there is all kinds of psychological reasons why people do it (control issues, auto criticism, lack of self esteem, whatever) but tbh it confuses me.

I'm just here to talk about BB and hopefully smile a bit along the way. If I can't do that here without sifting through the garbage, I think it's prolly time to move on. I don't want to though, like a previous poster said there is a lot of good people here as well.

And there is No Selective Moderating

Yes Sub Gangs

I stand Alone
I do not need a Gang
or a Poster in need of Love.

I have looked
and it is a Big Forum
so you can move around.


I think James
steps in when he thinks he should.
And that is enough.


Stu do not get so Deep in this.
Life is Fun.

It's the childish losers that have registered here, not to support BB, but to just slag off EVERYTHING making petty threads and making statements which cannot be backed up.

Over all, it's stupid 9 year olds ruining the forums, it's become very boring and it's a real turn off, but still, it's not DS so that's a good thing

I think in comparrion to other sucessful forums, this one is definately the least troll dominated. Especially when you consider how laid back the moderating is. When i see troll posts i just ignore them the good old fashioned way and if everyone did the same, there wouldn't be a problem. I don't think there is a problem.

Some people take the slagging of HM's very personal

Yes Ignore them
or Report them, if valid.

It sometimes gets a bit much, but its all usually good banter for the regulars on here! I tend to think the forums usually tend to be alot more aggressive as the show nears its end!! Lots of trolls usually post and cause trouble, but i tend to just go with the flow.
