10 or so months ago, we would have been happy to call this forum a community, nearly everyone got on well, and wasnt afraid of posting something contrevertial.

10 months later, divides split us all up and members hate each other.

So, what the hell happened here?

MarkWaldorf · 14-12-2008, 01:28 PM

Certain people joined

Magic · 14-12-2008, 01:28 PM

Hmm, I think its kind of got better than it was a month or so back, or have I missed something?

For me its better now, I think you will always get people 'excluded', last year this time I was a TiBB reject (More than I am now

)

\PJ/ · 14-12-2008, 01:29 PM

I dont' hate everyone sometimes people need putting in there place.

I joined yesterday and this site has been one of the most unwelcoming places I've ever been to. I disagreed with someone's point yesterday and they started calling me argumentative and started arguing with me as if I don't have a right to be here. Then later on I got called "dumbass" for no good reason. I've never been to a forum like this. Is this how all new members are treated?

Who was that?! I'm not surprised LOL

Seriously, be lucky this isn't the Britney forum. If you posted something negative you'd be told to go kill yourself.

Aye, I know what you mean

Some people dont even give people a chance

Tom · 14-12-2008, 01:35 PM

Compare the members from now to this time last year and you've got your answer

DamonJ · 14-12-2008, 01:36 PM

TiBB has changed for the worse in such little time, mostly because of younger members joining I think (mind you, I can't talk, I'm only 14) but I agree that TiBB has become tripe in recent months.

pinkmichk · 14-12-2008, 01:36 PM

not been here that long but i have noticed it becoming more and more like a playground with a lot of the petty arguements etc all over peoples opinions

Ahh sorry to hear that.. im sure this was always quite a friendly place? Anyways, welcome to tibb

And yeah ive deffo disliked tibb more than i did a few months ago. I noticed certain members have changed and become quite unfriendly. And some people bite your heads off for having an opinion. Fair enough debates are healthy but dont take them too far. I know i only joined in January so i havent even been here a year yet but i still notice things. And i know other members have been upset by certain people on here too.

hehe thanks, that was more of a joke, but last year kind of time I wasn't very liked because of Sam & Crew

AngRemembered · 14-12-2008, 01:38 PM

Tell me about it..

All I done was introduce my daughter to this site, post a greeting and let people know how I was doing in hospital...

That was'nt just, that was 4 months ago, and she and I were villified and almost thrown out, neither of us posted anything insulting to any other member, in fact quite the reverse.
So its not just new members or old members coming back after assuming new identities, its the same old MSN cliques that gather on the same evenings and for one reason or another decide amongst themselves to "target" someone or some other clique, and then bring it here to the forum.

I for one would have a complete blanket ban on MSN chat here, and keep my fingers crossed it helps cool a few people down, but blaming new members is wrong they if anything have nothing to do with problem this at all

If you learn to not get so emotionally involved on here, it's fine. By that I mean don't declare somebody on here as your best friend, don't get into arguments, don't be rude, don't post your feelings etc. because all of those things are open to other people who can do whatever they like with the information you give them. People throw strops and "leave" then come back because they want to see how much attention people paid to them, or they have a "best friend" who's "upset" they left. It's a load of nonsense - I've left before, but not in a "I hate ___ so I'm leaving way" - about a month after I joined, I was ill and didn't come on for a month, and then between Big Brothers' I've left for months at a time. People didn't care I left, and I didn't care that people didn't care.

Moral of the story: don't get emotionally attached!

Are you joking? People actually get attached to members on a TV forum? That's ridiculous!

I have noticed it being very cliqey around here, people gang up on new members like happened to me yesterday for having a counter opinion.

Magic · 14-12-2008, 01:43 PM

Youtube video

You could say TiBB has become a Mad World

Yep. It's a minefield of sorts on here sometimes, there are a lot of members on here who are still quite young and really highly strung because they've not matured yet (I don't mean that in a condescending way!) so there are a lot of "fights" and so on.

Me andy and david all joined about 4 - 6 months ago lol.

Ross · 14-12-2008, 02:07 PM

andyman · 14-12-2008, 02:16 PM

Not like the good old days eh plus in the past many have brought their msn tripe into the forum, people come and go but we should ask the old skool members if the forum is any better or worse.
