Indeed, need you ask?

Rigging an election takes time.

The "live" feed on ch4 as well as the a and b feeds on the web were 20 min (yes TWENTY MINUTES ) behind real time.

Which body is responsible for monitoring false claims by organisations such as ch4 with intent to deceive? This is not libellous, this is fact.
”

We talked about the'live' feeds a while back on another thread and I did some hunting around all the usual publications. There is no actual definiton of 'Live Television' for the purpose of accusing someone of not being 'Live'. There are references around to do with live sports but that's it. So there is nothing to throw at them about Live from a legal point of view directly. But I don't believe that C4/Endemol can refute a claim by viewers that they just plain lied.

Feel free to complain though via the regulatory body's online complaints form at the Independent Television Commision (ITC) website. Responses can take from 3 to 20 working days.

Banned topic from BB official site from Keltic......”


I'm not surprised Keltic was banned from the C4 forum, as have most of the forum members there who had anything to say other than I think BB4's great and I think the most fit housemate is ............. Welcome to the free world.

Hiya everyone, lol.

I keep getting e-mails to say the thread is still going, lol!

Ah well, looks like cam to win eh?

You know, some of us started a thread, not serious, a pee take virtual BB thread and half of them have been banned for nothing! Just banned.

Ahh well, I made my own forum for banned people, lol! It's in my profile if anyone wants to use it. But just thought I should let you know, nothing's changed and you aren't missing anything by not being there!

The odds for Cameron winning in the early days of BB4 were massive. If he does win the bookies are set to take a massive loss. I wont make any direct connection cos that would be libelous but it does make you think doesn't it?!!!

Thank you for reminding me ofthis thread, I remember at the time thinking it was very fishy what happened at the C4 forum. The pro-Cam supporters are FAR too quiet in this thread, I'd like to hear their views on why the thread was repeatedly deleted when it contains nothing offensive, just some observations...

Nowt like stoking the fire...

I got banned from the BB forum for posting a bastardised quote from Bo Selecta's Davina - "You are live on the Big Brother Forum don't say anything libellous or edgy". I was just having a laugh...

No explanation, just banned. F*ckers.

Yep, they lost all sense of humour!

Trying desperately to get people who dare to say something to join this new forum.

I have the feeling that sod's law has it, only the quiet ones will join!

I get the feeling now that it's almost over they are banning and banning more people!

What's the point in s forum if you aren't allowed to speak?

Of course you are allowed to speak ! DS is easily one of the most tolerant, open & free thinking sites that you will come across !

Digital Spy is also pretty liberal and politically correct which is appreciated by many of us as we don't wish to share our spare time with low life racists, sexists, homophobes and abusive delinquents.

I've never been banned or been sent an email warning me to behave. And I 'speak' all the time and about everything on this and other Forums. In fact as someone who holds various minority and often unpopular political views, DS has never attempted to silence me, diversity of opinion being always cherished on this site !

If you reread the thread, you will see that Keltic is referring to the BB forum, not DS, yet you post as if the poster has made an attack on DS.

Ignorant and ill thought out posts disrupt forums alongside the trolls and the troublemakers. Misunderstandings occur and posters feel threatened. It is the same few posters that tend to do this over and over. It would help if posters weren't too bigoted to read other's POV before they attcked them.

First half of your post - The BB Forum is an integral part of Digital Spy ! My points are therefore completely valid. You are are nit picking and you know it !

Second half of your post - This very abusive ! I have therefore alerted the mods. You are abusing Keltic's thread, using it as an excuse to attack someone that you have un-related issues with. Your hero has gone so get over it ! I was not responsible, despite what some FMs might think, for the removal of a particular DS reporter and his column.

The official BB forum has nothing to do with DS. I don't know why you think it has.

I have no idea to whom you are referring as my 'hero'. If youmean Jon, he is well and truly back in the house. I do not think I have endorsed any other housemate in my column or on these boards.

To answer the part of your post you have just added through editing, I have never been removed from these boards and my column is in a weekly paper and nothing to do with you whatsoever. I have no idea what you are spouting about!

You too have edited, but anyway .....

The discussion evolved, so there ! However I apologise to the thread starter and ask Keltic to forgive me.

I have never suggested that you have been removed from this site or any other site for that matter. I made no reference to your weekly column. Given this, perhaps you too should read the threads a little more carefully. I believe that you are well aware of what I am really referring to.

Lastly, you were abusive and that was neither pleasant nor necessary. I have no intention of wasting any more of my time engaging in a tit for tat discussion with someone that posts abuse as nothing useful will be gained from my doing so.

Yes, I edited to include the changes you had made to your post.

I have reread this thread and cannot see any reference to a reporter that you have not tried to get removed - only the reference to reporting my posts to the moderators, presumably with the intent to have them removed. I am the only reporter, albeit part time, that I know on these boards.

Your use of the phrase 'so there' is not pleasant.

It looks to me as if there have ben misunderstandings on both 'sides' of this. Ketic was not, from what I can tell, refering to the DS:BB forum but to the C4 BB forum. Eejay was not refering to The_Green_Man but to a former DS reporter although I'm not quite sure what his departure has to do with this thread.

All this, however, is an aside, please can you take any arguements off of the forum. Thank you.

~ Beth.
