I try to be an impartial on this forum as possible, mainly because at the end of the day...its a Big Brother Forum and I have enough **** in my real life without having to deal with beef on here. However, from the last couple of days my observations are:

1 - There is a definite pack mentality from all sides. The other day in the Anti-Semitic thread when it kicked off, it was reported in the chat threads as kicking off and then a mass influx of people came into the thread which inflamed it further leading to the bans. Nothing wrong with that in my opinion, in real life people stick up for their friends but the problem comes when it is obviously happening and then people only see it from the other side.

2. People take a real bashing on here - just recently Brillo has had numerous character assassinations and now Dezzy is getting it. A lot of the people who are here supporting Dezzy saying it shouldn't be happening (and I agree it shouldn't on a public forum) are people who either took part or watch in amusement at the Brillo bashing.

I don't know what people get out of it - borne from frustration maybe but there needs to be a line drawn as the toxicity is getting worse on here and it used to be such a great forum.

Totally agree with this ^^ the way Brillo is abused on here ( Livia too ) is disgusting and its always the same people who now are crying into their coffee because their friend is getting spoken about for not doing his job in the manner it should be done ,Good old members have been driven off this forum because of the actions of a few,and if this place is going to attract nice people who feel free to chat without getting abused something has to change, and it starts at the top

Oh was that the issue? there was the usual tirade of 'oi you can't say that to my fren' without the slightest interest in the topic of debate... Thought as much.
