Is it possible for Mods to put Jesse's Bio in that folder?

Whatever happened to the live feed posters that used to keep us folks with no feeds up on things every year?

Twinkie, I think they dried up. I think BB in general is fading. I am curious if the number of posts are down overall or not cuz it does not seem like there are as many posts as there have been in years past.

Not sure about viewership, but i remember coming here for other seasons and could not decide where to look first as there were so many threads. It was so fun to have a ton of different threads where things stayed on target and it was easy to get information. Now it seems like everything (well like 90% of all discussions) is taking place in current live feed discussions and the conversations are all over the place. Seems like it is a chat room for those with feeds. But those without are kind of left out cuz they don't know what is really happening. I remember (in past BB seasons) reading every word of live feeds like it was a book!! And now there is little to read....

Maybe you should start some threads then, Julie.

Julie...any time anyone comes in that thread and asks a question, it is always answered. Usually by several people. It's nice because we discuss what is currently happening, but also what happened to lead up to what is currently happening. If I'm in there and see you ask anything at all, I will always try to promptly answer you. I can only speak for myself with regard to Live Feed Transcripts, but it can often be a thankless task that comes with much criticism. LOL

I have a question. Why don't people post more stuff about what is happening in the house in the "Important/Interesting House Happenings (No Discussion)" thread? Is it because they think that the "happening" has to be super important in order to post it there?

Well I think I've asked at least two questions that were not answered at all. The one that comes to mind was how did Jessie come to choose his noms?

Bee, wrt live feeds, what criticism has there been? That is horrible, as I can see it being a thankless task, even though I know there are a bunch of people who would appreciate it!!

Oh one last thing, since I have no live feeds, it is kind of hard for me to start any threads right now!

Julie, we don't know how Jesse chose his noms. It happened before the feeds went live. We're assuming we'll find out during the show tomorrow night.

The one that comes to mind was how did Jessie come to choose his noms? But, Julie. We can't possibly know that because Feeds weren't live at the time. I remember people posting that when that question was asked. The TV schedule was also posted. It's Sunday 8pm, Tuesday 9pm and Thursday 8pm. I also saw the schedule of events posted. It's POV on Friday POV Ceremony on Sunday Live Eviction Thursday HOH Comp Thursday Night Food Comps unknown at this point because the first and only one so far was played while we didn't have feeds. WRT the criticisms. I don't want to get into that this year. Suffice it to say, you know how people can be. lol If you did decide to start a thread, I would certainly read it and respond if I had anything to offer.

I appreciate the answers. But I still am not fond of the current live feed discussion thread. Seems that will be where the majority of posts will be and they will be geared to those with feeds as they will be discussing what they are seeing. Kind of leaves out those who can't see. I know in the past seasons, I hated to ask questions cuz you feel like an outsider annoying those who paid for feeds... You feel like the people who paid for the feeds did pay for them and they don't want to take time out to type what is going on (hence the lack of the live feed posters) and they were also annoyed by the questions of the "non-paying" customer. Guess I might feel the same way! So there is my two cents if anyone wants them!!

Bee, not having feeds, I would not know that (about Jessie and no feeds at the time). Someone did post the events, but not the TV schedule... Anyways, thanks for you above info!

Well, again, I can only say that I see lots of posters who say they don't have Feeds, so I'm just encouraging you to come ask anything. If I'm there, I'll surely answer. I don't find anyone who asks a question annoying. I ask quite a few myself. HA

Okay, one example of a thread (yes I will start it in a minute if I don't forget) is Will the POV be used? or if POV Is used, who will be replaced? Do you see what I would hope to see here? Specific threads that would get plenty of discussion about specific topics. As opposed to all the topics getting mixed up in one thread...

I think that's a good thread. It happens every week, so it will stay relevant. Go start it...I'll answer.

I think we had these kind of discussions last season. Didn't we discuss some solutions, like having the Important House Happenings thread but also a Not So Important House Happenings thread? We really need a thread for things like who's aligning with who, who's spreading trouble, Julieboo's POV thread, that sort of thing. We don't even know why people were nominated - maybe no one knows but perhaps it's been discussed and someone has clues they could have shared (or did share in the current happenings thread, where only a few saw it). I know people in the current happenings thread often try to answer questions, but it has little value to anyone but the asker, because the thread moves so quickly no one else will see it.

I read that thread and find that almost every time, someone has asked the questions I would have asked. So, I find that the thread, for me, has much value to both asker and reader.
