The name calling on the forum

If a HM says or does something you don't like or want to make a point about, fair enough but far too often lately FMs are making reference to the way a person looks. I find this not only lazy but it kind of invalidates the point they are trying to make.

If you are trying to point out a bad quality in someone it hardly helps your case if what you are doing is as bad as, if not worse than, what you are pointing out.

The HMs may have some dislikable character traits but they haven't resorted (yet) to calling each other derogatory names.

Can we just get back to debating their actions ?

    I don't see a problem with judging someone by their looks.

    Yeah, let's sanitize this board and make it as dull as possible. That's a brilliant idea! :rolleyes:

    It´s a forum for people to say what they want, ( within the T & C ´s of the forum) all we need is more forum police trying to add to the already stringent rules.

    From reading your post you sound to me like one that has OFCOM on speed dial .

    I wish negative posts about any housemate were banned. It should just be one big appreciation forum full of hugs and kisses.

    I wish we could all get along like we used to in middle school... I wish I could bake a cake filled with rainbows and smiles and everyone would eat and be happy...

    TBH, I think this board is overly sanitised as it is.

    Compared to other (non BB) boards, this place is very tame LOL.
