I disregarded nothing and responded to everything you said, noting that I didn't want this to turn into another debate about what constitutes a good housemate on BBUK in a thread that isn't about that, but alas that seems to be what you're pining for so
No it isn't, and you must be another person who doesn't read threads properly because I've rebutted this false argument on several occasions with evidence. On the contrary, you have none. Do pray tell, if I only support loud housemates, why have several of my favourites included housemates such as Glyn, Gerry, Jonty, Brian, Stephanie, Mikey, Luke, Noirin, Marcus, Lydia, Dexter, Steven, Joel and Adjoa - most of whom never shouted or did so sparingly? What is hilarious is that people continue to make this baseless accusation despite it being rebutted on several occasions with evidence that they then go onto ignore, presumably because they know they've been proven wrong. Also I have to laugh at you attempting to criticise me for writing 'essays' when you're guilty of just the same thing and some of the lengthiest posts in this thread have come from you. Newsflash: this is a forum where discussions take place, and I will write as much as I see fit. If you are incapable of reading comprehension and don't have a very good attention span, may I suggest that a forum isn't the best place for you - or perhaps one where it's one sentence posts and gifs will be better suited.
It has nothing to do with making noise or shouting per se, it is about objective contribution. The housemate who has contributed the most to the series, i.e been its star and created the most discussions should be crowned the winner - and those kind of housemates should stay around for the success of the series. It's a very simple argument to get your head around.
Of course we shouldn't, and it is inevitable that someone always has to take it to the extreme in these scenarios but no, of course there are obvious exceptions to the rule like Dennis, Conor (who wasn't even entertaining anyway), Daley (same), Helen in BB16, Jade in CBB5, etc etc. But for the most part yes it is all irrelevant. Big Brother isn't real life, it isn't a morality competition or a charity and quite frankly if that's what you watch the show for then you may be best placed looking elsewhere considering the types of people they cast. I don't watch this show looking for people to relate to or a new best friend for precisely that reason - have you seen the housemates? I wouldn't want to be associated with most of them, I watch this show for escapism. It is baffling to me that anyone watches Big ****ing Brother through that kind of lens, but each to their own.
I don't know how many times in this thread or in the past I've said I know full well BBUK isn't going to adopt the US format because the producers aren't that intelligent or daring enough, and how many more times I'm going to have to say it before you pay attention - but that is beside the point. I am entitled to argue that it should change because I believe it would improve the show, and as I said to you in the last 'essay' of yours I replied to you'll notice that it is rarely me who starts these repetitive threads or incites these endless debates. I tend to post a flippant remark about how yes we should adopt it and then someone else will reply asking why or telling me no and that is what starts it off. But of course in typical TiBB fashion that'll be ignored when it's convenient to criticise someone you disagree with!
Everyone knows where I stand by now. If you don't agree and don't want another debate about it, don't reply. If you do, I will respond.
As for
me not knowing what's best for the show, that is quite hilarious coming from you. Believe me I do, but I wouldn't expect you to realise that
