I'm torn. Sure, VTS is more likely to keep the dramatic ones around for longer (but not always, as has been proved numerous times), but it also essentially rewards crappy behaviour. There's a definite satisfaction when a dick gets evicted with a landslide with VTE.

If I had to choose, I'd probably go for VTE as it's the format I mostly associate with Big Brother (and was the format that most of us were accustomed to before C5).

This.

I also prefer the sound of Who goes? You Decide, as opposed to Who stays? You Decide.

But VTS for CBB (even though it allows ***** like Perez, Katie H, Speidi, and James Jordan to make it further)

It's also saved people like Deana, Frenchy, Heaven, Janice, Chloe Jasmine, Lydia etc who all would've been evicted the first time they were nominated in a VTE.

Also I think VTE makes the show more hateful and makes you look for the bad in people rather than good. E.g. Adjoa evicted to heavy boos for eating an extra pack of crisps and using too much butter? Whereas had it been VTS she probably would've stayed and we would remember her for good qualities. People hated her fore talking about pussy, yet Charlotte was much more vulgar in a VTS series and ended up winning.

VTE gives the crowd even more reason to act like aggressive chavs and boo people for no reason.

I think VTS has not been given a fair chance in the normal series. We've had 14 VTE series and only 2 VTS series. Some VTE series have been amazing while others were awful. One VTS series was awful whilst the other was amazing. So I honestly think it needs more time and more opportunities to be used before we make a proper judgement.

I think both formats are flawed tbh but I prefer VTS for CBB and VTE for BB. I don't think Adjoa would've survived with a VTS either way tbh, I mean she was up against Eileen (a quirky old woman) and Sarah (who at the time was quite a popular housemate), and then you had Adjoa. I just couldn't see her having a bigger fanbase to muster up enough votes than the other two housemates tbqh. And Charlotte won because she had a big fanbase (the GS following is huge, I mean look at Vicky's win in IAC). And I don't think the voting format has an effect on whether the crowd boo or not, I mean they simply boo anyone they dislike regardless if it's a VTS or VTE. I mean the crowd don't act any differently in CBB (which uses a VTS format) compared to BB (which uses the VTE format). The crowd is just as chavy and hostile in CBB than they are in BB.
