This has been a problem for years, but it has become an issue in week two of this season and I can not take it any more. The HOH room has become a den for cowards. People treat others like crap and then hole up in there to ride it out. Sure we have had a few exceptions of more respectable players who would choose not to do this, but that is the exception. The rule is, act horribly to people and then all hide and then hope someone else you are associated with next week wins.

They need to either remove the HOH room entirely, or else they need to modify it so only the HOH can go in there, or the HOH can go in there with only 1 guest at a time. Having half the house holed up in there every single day is horrible for the show and the game. They need to make it so people are constantly forced to be in shared and common space that everyone has easy access.

I'd love to see bb make a rule that only HOH is allowed in there except for very limited things (lockdown or revealing the new room.) No meetings, no guests, no sharing the bathroom/tub, or the gift basket, no sharing music.

I would make a great HOH. I can't stand for people to sit on my bed. I don't allow it at all. I have a chair and a trunk with pillows on it. Sit on those but don't sit on my bed. Big pet peeve of mind.

LOL, other than my husband and I, and the kids, I really hate to have anyone in my bedroom. If we have company or a party and someone wants to feed or change a baby/toddler in private or put their little one down for a nap, I have no problem offering my room. But for visiting? No thanks.

It's my private place, my spot to relax in peace, I don't want intrustions. That's the way I see the HOH room, or how it should be. It's a privelage for one person, or should be, their private place. For them alone.

Yeah it is weird the stuff I see people do to each others beds in these games. Both here and I saw something skeevy in the UK show. I don't really want people rolling around on my bed without a specific intent involving me.

People running on beds with shoes and stuff or laying down after working out... drives me up the wall.

LOL I thought I was the only neurotic one about my bed and bedroom. I agree that my bedroom is my space. It is not a place to have guests. When the kids have friends over, they are not to bring them into my room.

My pet peeve is when someone sits on top of my comforter. After all the feathers will get smashed. Oh boy, I can't stand it when someone sits on/in my bed with street clothes on.

But hey I don't mind that my dog is lying at the foot of my bed, or that the cat is on my pillow :-)

Yah, that was the good thing about the old BB house, the HOH room was the size of the bed... they could only fit one guest in a t a time.

I will always remember in BB3 the second week when Marcellas won HOH. He told Danielle to spread the word that whoever came to him in the HOH room to want to talk about who to put up to tell them that he would put that person up. This really got bad in BB6 when the NE..HERD camped out in it whenever one of their "TEAM" won HOH.

I couldn't agree more! Been saying it for years. The HOH needs to be restricted from 'whole-house' alliances.

I hate it when a certain group hangs out up there constantly, then the potential nominees (ie: ones not a part of the HOH group) are told that they didn't show respect to the HOH by not going to the HOH room.

And, yeah, if you're not the HOH, then you don't get to listen to music, or take showers or poo in the HOH bathroom. It should be for HOH use only.

They will never restrict the HOH because that has the potential to lead to full on sex.

I also hate when they all hang out in the HOH. Especially when the HOH is not even in the room. I wish BB would enforce the rule that it is for the HOH that won that room. Allow only one guest at a time in the HOH room and the HOH has to be in the room at the time. Then they can still have their "sex" moments. They just can't have threesomes. LOL!

I liked the way BB Australia did it. They only had the room for the weekend. They were allowed to bring one person with them. The rest of the week that room was off limits.

Or make the shower off limits, etc.

That's a cool idea, Joyce.

I think they should make the HOH room for only the HOH to sleep in (maybe with 1 guest) and then, on the HOH can go into the room for a total of 2 hours a day and no more and no guests then.

Totally agree. Is the spy cam still limited or do they have that all the time now too?

I liked it better when it was a small room on the first floor. You could still have sex in the room, I think Dave and Amanda proved that! I hate it when on half of the house is hiding in the room because they are going to do something mean and are to much of a coward to face the people they are about to screw over. Or when they are up there talking crap about everyone else. They should close the room off except for sleeping.

I don't mind the HOH being able to go into their room for some personal quiet time... but that is not a perk that the others have earned. They should not be allowed to go nap, listen to music, use the bathroom etc.

I couldn't agree more. The HOH room allows one group to easily isolate itself in a private area. For goodness sake, the a major point of BB is interaction and the HOH room takes away from that.

The production loves getting those scenes with girls in tub, mixed co. in shower and possibilities of "actions" too much, they're not going to change a thing about the HOH.

Meanwhile, this is the Big Brother house. BB could just interrupt the sheeples gathering whenever BB wants. They don't need any reasons or excuses. Just have it as an unwritten rule. And if the HGs want to fight about BB's instructions, just threaten to banish them to the "Have Nots" or take the Exit.

I love the idea of restricting visitors to one at a time. That could really cause some hard feelings if one non-HOH person monopolized all of the HOH room time and it could really out some "secret" alliances.

Kitt, from what I can tell, they are using the spy screen quite a bit. Ronnie's been using it to see if people are coming up when he's talking to others.

When they first put in the spy screen, they were limited to only using it for 30 minutes a day. I wish they would go back to that!

Thanks, it did seem like it was on a lot. That perk out of all of them should definitely be kept for the HOH only.

How's this for compromise: Other than sleeping(sex?!)from midnight-9am, if you aren't HOH, you have to STAND UP the entire time you are in the HOH room. If BB wants so much nudity, they can put a bathtub downstairs in little room w/a door... they can easily use the space under the stairs, or a corner of the living room, heck put it in the backyard!}

ITA, guys! The HOH room should be for the HOH only! The only thing bad I see about the one guest at a time in the HOH room rule would be the long line that would assemble outside the door of everyone waiting to be seen! The HOH would never get any REST!

Maybe they should just take the room away completely. Let the HOH sleep with everyone else.

BB also needs to stop letting the have nots stay up all night and then sleep all day on beds or benches. If the have nots want to nap, they should have to nap in the have not bedroom.

Or maybe if people stay in HOH for more than a certain time period.. the HOH room will be shown on the screen in the living room...

So that anyone can spy on them..

Seamonkey, great idea. Of course, it should only happen if there is more than one other guest in the HOH room. One on one time should be private.
