If you think someone is trolling then report it and if it needs dealt with it will be.

And honestly anyone claiming they posted the cat ladies thing not knowing it was an insult is a liar.

I feel the thread has opened up a good discussion,people have got stuff off their chests and maybe we have all been shown that sometimes we get too embroiled in a game show where the contestants neither know us or care about us (aside from Raph) all in all,I have enjoyed this thread.

Exactly! You only have to check the links I posted to see it was used as a means to insult. It's all there in b/w.

But because its directed at a male its fine

A lot who are complaining about appearance insults this year actually posted in that thread..and joined in with the taunting about 'fat and virgin'

Looking back on it now I can't believe we didn't ban people for their attitudes in there actually. I often get shocked at just how horrible members can be when I look at old threads.

Edit. Raph in that thread

Spoiler:

Haven't read through the whole thing and I'm not to trying to justify it in any way but Jack actually was/is very obese, and people were discussing that as a possible reason why he was voted to win some vote (can't remember what). It's slightly different from people calling female housemates (who aren't even overweight) "fat sluts" etc because they don't like them. But I admit some of the posts are horrible and not acceptable.

An ICONIC compilation!
Honestly if you're offended by any of those posts over some of the vitriol posted about female housemates then you have your priorities all wrong.

Pretty sure I have reported Novo's tedious nonsense enough times. Can't be bothered doing it anymore!

The baiting against cats should stop.

I've prefered twitter but a lot of posters here are amazing and make me laugh but honesty what is happening?

I've never used twitter but the general consensus of opinion seems to be that it is a lot worse - one of the worst - so find your post a little odd tbh.

Thanks Kaz. I do come in now and again when Something catches my attention.

I forget it's here sometimes. SD has a way of keeping your attention.

I know,pretty hostile in there at times,nice to have some light relief ,well ,sometimes

[Smithy]

I dont post in the bb forum so this is the first I've heard of the cat lady thing

[Samm]

meow

[T*]

We're allowed to dig up old posts? Good to know heh

[TaylorCallum]

Mess what is happening in here?

I actually find this forum pretty mild compared to other sites. I agree people shouldn't be personally attacking each other but I've not actually seen anything bad. I think a little bit of trolling can liven things up now and again.

[smudgie]

now my thinking of The cat ladies being dear old ladies stroking their pussies in their rocking chairs is all blown to pieces.

I often think of of certain members like that.

[Ashsleigh]

I'm sorry but I'm reading through this thread and it's basically just "oh you don't like what I say? Well here's what you've said. You're just as bad. Hey, now we're even"... What are we actually gaining here? You can't emphasise on other people's behaviour as a way of justifying your own.

[thesheriff443]

Can everyone draw a line under it and move on.
Both sides have had a a say and the mods have had input.

[TaylorCallum]

Can I ask what is wrong with being a cat lady in the first place? If anything it's a term of endearment. Cats are great.

Exactly. It's hardly offensive.

I do understand now people do find it offensive but theres always a chance some don't. It really depends on the context but would i care if i was called one? No because theres nothing wrong with being one.
