The problem mainly exits on the Serious Debates section and then of course sometimes on the main forum sections (BB/CBB) during on-season.

..it’s not really so much the ‘problem’ though, Cald...it’s more that ‘problems’ seem to be felt and have to be acknowledged and given validity...(...from all perspectives...staff and members etc..)...so it’s more a possible solution of keeping all members and staff where they are right now...and not losing anyone...either from a team or as a member, you know...

Do people really take feuds on-season so seriously? If that's the case then I'm assuming that there's something much deeper going on beneath the surface than "he/she didn't like my favourite Housemate on Big Brother."

And I honestly believe that people should be careful about how much time they spend on Serious Debates as people are likely to fall out over certain political issues, especially if it's a Tory versus Labour issue as neither side can seem to understand each other or compromise with each other on issues on here, tbf it's the same on DS too and it makes their Serious Debates section really intense to keep viewing so I only use it sporadically.

..I don’t think any of us that might say ‘do people take these things so seriously, really..’...have never taken stuff seriously ourselves at some points and some situations, Mock......with a forum such as TiBB and the whole nature of it..we’re all here because of so many close bonds etc...so yes, with that...there will be ‘taken seriously’ as well...there couldn’t not be...we wouldn’t be human and we wouldn’t have balance with the absence of ‘taking things seriously’ at times....

Personally for me the only things that I'd take seriously on here and would be offended is if anyone insulted me on the Forum and wasn't joking, and then tried to defend themselves if I was to confront them about it. Also I wouldn't stand for bullying on the Forum either.

I know that we're all different though and some people do get more bothered about certain things that I just don't get personally, I suppose it is what makes the Forum so special to me is it isn't an echo chamber.

I've definitely noticed it a bit more lately on the SD section, it's always been a place for debates/arguments, but I don't know it feels kinda like members really dislike each other on there which I've never felt like that before when visiting that section of the Forum.

I'm hoping that it's just me being OTT as I can be like that sometimes.

It's been this hostile on here before but back then everyone involved was just given lengthy bans and told to deal with it and it eventually stopped, there's too much pandering and tip toeing around certain members these days.

I know what you're saying, but even back a few years ago the debates had an element of fun about them.

Maybe the Forum misses members like Lostalex who would make the SD section more fun.
