Default Please do NOT call contestants fat on this forum.

Does everyone on the forum know that FAT is not to be mentioned here?

I've had several threads removed from the forum just because I mentioned fat contestants in threads.

Does anyone think that this is a democratic and moral stance for the forum to take?


If you don't, please tell the forum mods.



On the other hand, if the mods stop posters posting about contestants who are fat (which they will not allow), while they allow people to post about other contestants' age, intelligence, looks, personality (no matter how objective), gingerness (whatever that might be!), and promiscuity, maybe they should not be so "holier than thou" about other subjects which are equally "offensive".

Just a thought.

I'm not a moderator or anything so I cant speak for the 'rules', but as a user, it just isn't that interesting to be honest, debating if someone's fat. Seriously. What's the point?

I'm sure you can say someone is fat but when you go OTT then that's what will get you in trouble.

The criticisms of housemates that are allowed are comments about someone's character.

Using 'fat' as an insult is criticising someone for how they are rather than how they act, and is just childish.
