It is "Boo to a Goose"
And Yes , I do think that the number of outrageously unpleasant posts has increased both last year and this year .Whether intentionally unpleasant is debateable though I would be sure some are and fro the reason above : where better ? I also think the number of comments about physical appearance have increased , Such as so and so is fat . Someone posted at the start of the run , in the KH thread about how fat and ugly she was and the poster declared herself to be much slimmer and so was able to judge . Having seen Karen, Lilia ,and Nicole close up and Flavia and Erin from more of a distance , a few weeks ago , they are all decidedly trim ! size 8 at the most . Karen is tiny in every way , not an ounce spare anywhere . |

I just hope the overflow from the beeb doesn't wash this way too often.
I just popped over there for a look and on the first page the top thread was yet another new thread titled 'Is Lisa Fake?' there was also a thread about Tom's stupid faces and Rachel's cha cha cha being dull. All in the first few threads. I logged off straight away! |

In reference to my earlier posts - quite.

For the most part, though, I find this a pretty civilised place and there are enough reasonable and witty voices (sid1979, TheHistoryGirl, SCD-Observer and your good self, to name but a few) to keep me coming back.

I've seen threads with those titles on here - so clearly the invasion has already begun.

I started out on the mean streets of "Yahoo"..makes this seem like a Sunday afternoon stroll around Tunbridge Wells.

The atmosphere in here is changing a bit.
I put it down to a combination of SCD having a bigger profile than it used to have (blame Garroway's persistence and the Flavia & Matt & Vincent stuff from last year for that) and the lack of any truly spectacular celeb dancers this year (good ballroom, but the latin is meh) = people more interested in personality stuff instead of dancing = people being more annoyed when their favourite gets booted. I don't think any of the final four were bad dancers, but none of them have rocked my boat in the way that some previous contestants have either. |

This year there are more threads than ever, but some are very bitchy comments but I blame the judges it would not go back into the bottle. |

I think that's the point, most of these keyboard warriors wouldn't say boo to a ghost in real life!

Can I just hazard a guess that also other forums that have had troll problems (and I mean you channel4 and not recently) only opens 8 till 12pm, bops you for most links and you cannot mention link or post youtube or indeed DS itself, so join onto here.
I also am a member of the beeb forums but I agree apart from 2 threads I rarely talk in there (And the Knights of Boag people will be disconsolate, I must pay my respects) Not all are horrid there are some cool ones on there. but I like DS a lot

I blame the crappy weather and the credit crunch. Even the judges are doing it - Len's been horrid this series. Everyone's got a gob on!
