There is a general outbreak of niceness on the forum this year with none of the usual outraged hysteria and slagging off of other contestants we have come to expect. So if everyone is going to be all civilised this year, I suggest we revisit the fanwars of yesteryear

series 5 I think had the best

Kelly Brook - ALL women who didn't like her were dried up bitter jellus hatahs with faces like bulldogs chewing wasps and men only voted for her because she had nice tits and arse
Gethin v Matt - I still think somewhere the forum echos with the screams of outrage when gethin didn't make the final

Let me start the war... Kara's fan thinks she will win because of her sweet face and was trained ballerina... well TV entertainment is not all about sweet face... and their live tv romance is also disgusting...

It was no fun. I recalled the forum went so berserk when Matt di Angelo shockingly scrapped through the quarter to semi by making an entire mess of his two routines (and practically begged people to give him a bye). Worse still, he came back and scored a perfect 40 for his waltz in the semis, at the expense of the bootylicious Gethin!

I wasn't even a Matt fan (was supporting Alesha) and even then I felt I had to defend him. He was a kitten-murderer, a knave having sex with horses and a drug dealer selling stuffs to toddlers! It was unbearable.

Have to say, Matt silence his critics when he did that amazing showdance with Flavia. Alesha's showdance was so meh it's almost embarrassing towards the end when Matt (the pro) nearly dropped her.

Name? We'll bash him/her

Not sure about DS but on the beeb board the vindictive, personal and vile comments about Lisa Snowdon were actually awful.
I will roll up my sleeves like many others but I couldn't believe some of the comments.

Meeeeeeeee Anyone who doesn't love Kara is just jellus of her beauty and Artem's teeth do not glow with an almost radioactive quality, those that say that are just jellus because he's not their boyfriend

Damn! Left my Russian Army uniform at home! *starts humming the Marseillaise*

he's like BBC version of chipmunk...

It's definitely the worst I'd seen the board, closely followed by the sound of a hundred jaws hitting the floor when darrne beat Colin followed by a short period of disbelieving silence and then...WAR!

oh yeh it was pretty bad here. I didn't mind her that much - anyone who dances with Brenda has my sympathy - but yep she was flayed.

A chipp-and-dale more like!

The words "Robbed", "was" and "Austin" come to mind for some reason... can't imagine why...

Alli F is that you??

Great, now there's suddenly many inane Kara is sh*te and James/Artem gay dance thread popping up like mushrooms!

All from Matt fans

He bloody well was Yes, still bitter about it

Does make a change from the Pam and Matt ones though, even if they are rubbish POV! Bet the respective OP's now disappear...

Really, those are pathetic attempts. More like WUMs and trolls just waking up from hibernation.

oooh fighting talk

can you prove that eh?? can yer?? can yer??

personally they just seem to be started by people with no sense of irony, wit or sarcasm. they are the equivalent of 12 year olds running in and shouting "bum" while the grown ups are eating

Matt fans aren't chavvy enough

Err, yes, just check their posting history

Series five was great but the character assignation of some of it's contestents less so. Some of the things said about Matt DA and Kelly Brook were truly horrible (although the tedious defender of hers who claimed all her detractors were jelus hatus was as bad - I've had that one used against me and it's like invoking Nazis it's proof you've lost the arguement) - yes get why they annoyed some people but really the way they were talked about you'd have thought they were mass murderers. Never understood why Gaby was so disliked either - she was no more competitive then the men from a sports background including her own husband - one of the few examples of complete double standard.

One Gethin fan made me laugh on the beeb board but wanting to invoke the freedom of info act to find out what the public vote - the words get a grip come to mind. I can understand why you guys were upset I was pretty gutted when Austin got booted out but there were threats to boycott the final which I saw more fool you can missed a good one.

I am guilty though myself - Chrstine Bleakley grated on me and so did Lisa Snowden (or more accurately Brendan (I'm afraid I kinda hated him that year a scent of victory made him incredibly arrogant), her father and the judges' fawinig all over her ) . I'm afraid the way Christine's fans talked about her deserving to win because she was so lovely when there was an incident when she got incredibly precious about her comment for her QS went they weren't that bad.

Skippygate didn't endear me to Jo Wood either although that wasn't really her fault.

posting history puhrist

Pah, that's not a war.

What you need to make clear is:[LIST][*]Kara's a manipulative schemer who uses her body to disguise her lack of talent.[*]The giveaway for this is the lack of any solo performances by her - compare with Scott who provided many such, e.g. in the Jive.[*]Artem gets his guns out at the slightest change, again to disguise lack of actual ability from his partner.[*]The Kartem fauxmance has clearly been timed to maximise publicity, there's not a shred of truth in it.[/LIST]
See?

That's how you do it.

I think "puhrist" is this season's "hatah"
