FWIW...i'm so glad for the ones that are enjoying the "NO CHATTERS" thread this year...but it was your CHOICE to enter or ignore that thread wasnt it? I understand it was a difficult thread to moderate....and i watched tonite, there wasnt a post for 10 minutes on the entire BB board...i was a lurker for years before i joined and i never saw that before--this isnt the place to debate this....but i think alot of people are feeling CENSORED...i would love to talk it out and give some suggestions with admins and mods i'm just clueless on where to do this

That stinks...I've actually only gone into chat a few times...im not one for it. It goes too fast for me as well...and i have a wireless connection which means its not always reliable. I think that the chatters thread may have made it another year or more had people been more observant of the overall BOARD rules....seems thats the big issue me thinks...not so much that there was one thread that was "chatting" but that the rules were being blatantly broken time and time again causing too much work for the mods

Ckrd, you can email the mods. As they've said in the past, contact them directly if you have questions. moderator@tvclubhouse.com

Question: After the nominations on Sunday's show, Kail said she had another reason for her noms, but didn't say. Someone hear mentioned that they'd heard her reasoning for the nomes (besides the "you did the worst in the HOH comp" thing). Does anyone know or know where I can read what her other (or real) reasons were?

Ckrd, you are welcome to email us! That is the best way to express your views, opinions, and even offer suggestions. Posting about these issues on the board is oftentimes removed because it can be disruptive to the flow of the board.

I can tell you, though, that we won't be bringing back the Chatter's thread the way it was. The Welcome Thread is the social thread for all non-BB related stuff and the Current Happenings thread is your BB discussions thread.

While no one should feel censored, it is understandable that folks may feel temporarily disoriented about where to post. All change takes a period of adjusting, and this was a pretty big change.

Costa, I wondered that same thing. I never heard her say anywhere what those reasons were.

Someone already did the math... 29 tasks = $60K. I guess they'll give him the last task for free.

I think her reasons were that Carol was part of the 6 and Amber was tight with Dustin and others.

They were afraid if they didn't break up the 6 they would run the house.

Spy, if you ever found out, will ya please let me know? I dunno if I'll be able to catch up once I log out tonight. Thanks! (It's driving me nuts. I wanna know Kail's ulterior motives. And I do think she wants all the girlz outta the house but her!)

Thanks Kale. I think that's bizarre reasoning. If the six are left there and if they really ARE NOT getting along, isn't the focus of the HGs gonna be on them? As in, the Joe/Dustin thing (for example) is making everyone uncomfy, so let's get THEM out. And that makes HER and her henchmen safe.

Why can't jen be Zach's lap dog? Why is Carol his only chance at his own personnel lap dog?

Why does Zach have to have a lap dog? (And don't EVEN start me on how condescending and sexist that sounds!!!! :-))

Not a question or an answer here.

I just want to say that I too am enjoying there not being a Chatters thread. The Chatters thread took away from all of the other threads on the forum in the seasons it was here. I enjoy being able to come home from work and catch up in the appropriate threads without ALSO wading through hours of BB happenings mixed in with unrelated BB banter (even though it seems the House Happenings thread WITH discussion is becoming almost the same as Chatters at times).

I really enjoy chat and have found myself hanging out there more than here on the board. It's a great place to hang out and shoot the bull with everybody in addition to chatting about BB.

Also, the only time it really goes fast is when a show is on. Other than that, it's not fast at all because it seems many people are not giving the chat feature here a fair shot. Soooo, not a lot of people in chat means it doesn't go fast at all. ;)

HL, the few times I was there, 21, 12 and 18 was the number. That was a lot for me and it wasn't even show time.

I'm still supporting the no discussion thread. I like it to catch up with. But there isn't a whole lot in there. The LF screencaps thread is keeping me informed when I come back after a while.

Has this thread became a vote as to whether we like or dislike the chatters thread? Or does it really matter to TPTB?

I for one liked it and miss it. Sometimes I feel like I am the only one watching the feeds (especially during the day) while posting little comments in the "current" thread. I pretty much stopped posting because of my pesky thread killer phobia.

I vote for there not being a chatters thread for the same reasons that hamsterlady wrote... Plus isn't that what the chatroom is expressly for anyways???

I'm happy the chatter's thread is gone! It was fun at the times you were actively involved, but sometimes you would be offline overnight or for a day or two, and ask a question in the morning and the only reply you would get is that it was covered at some point in the over 100 pages of chatters. THEN you were made feel as if you were lazy for not wanting to read over 100 pages overnight chattings for one silly answer. Glad it's gone, period. Thanks mods!

my question is....does anyone here really know for sure if all the 'regular' posters have left? or are they lurking and choosing not to post?

I notice a whole wack of regulars missing.


I dont think regulars would be concerned as to a 'formal' chatters thread as we went without for years.

I'm hoping it is just people doing their vacation now that kids are out of school.

I've seen some 'regulars' at other sites. I think some people are into the chatting as a social thing as well as a BB thing and that's why a bunch have left. It's sad.

Chatters wasn't around for so long, but while it was here it was a huge part of the board.

Sun...I know that some of the "regular" posters have left. But certainly not all.

I, personally, am having trouble navigating and figuring out where to find what, and it's taking me so long to find info I'm looking for that by the time I do, it's no longer relevent to post on it. That was the thing about that particular thread for me. I could go there, get instantly caught up and ask questions which would be answered right away.

I'm trying to readjust to the new way, and I've been out of town until yesterday, but I'm having trouble with finding info I need, etc. And, of course, having been gone, I'm trying to "catch up" and get everyone's take on the new season.

Can someone explain to me the color system Dustin was using to discuss other HGs without using names?
