Realfan | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 09:31 am     <<It kind of makes you wonder which board he spent a lot of time on last year - there are three that I know of that have really good updates, including our board.>> Gail, which are these sites? This is my preferred, fave home, but I wouldn't mind dropping by for a visit elsewhere now and then. On the US vs. THEM thing--Jason probably didn't want to come off as too much of a geek, or self-identify in public with US. Especially if he faked to BB et al how much a fan of the show he was. |
Hoon4vr | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 09:37 am     I don't they care so much if you're a BB fan or not- I think that they wanted a bunch of pretty models, and the fact is, these types of people are too busy partying, working out, having sex and looking in the mirror to watch BB. |
Twiggyish | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 09:39 am     He has to keep under the radar with that group. Roddy is going to target him, otherwise. GO JASON!!!! |
Fanny | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 10:38 am     It's clear to me why Jason says "they" instead of "we". Jason cannot alienate or separate himself from the house by aligning with the awful net folks. His "we" has to be the houseguests. If his "we" were to be with a group of people outside the house, psychologically the hamsters would have a reason to think of him as being apart from them. Anyone who is different is an easy target. Whit and Lurknomore have both compared Jason's being "one of us" with Kent's appearances here. I don't think Kent is personally involved with BBFC. I think he merely prepares a general/generic message and posts it in all the various boards he knows about. Whenever he posts here, many of us respond in his thread and thank him and encourage him to spend some time here. He rarely replies. So in my opinion he uses these boards as a publicity device, which is slightly different from my usage. (I'm almost an addict...... and probably in denial.) From the sounds of it Jason is intimately familiar with how things happen on the boards. He is definitely one of us. Much as I love Marcellas, I have to pull for Jason first out of loyalty. It's nice to know that Jason is a 300-pound woman with nothing better to do as well as an evil 18 year old zit-faced nerd. Just like me! My twin! Go Jason (and Marcellas for runner up)! |
Twiggyish | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 10:42 am     Fanny, I can see where you think that about Kent, but if I'm not mistaken, he was an active member here before going into the house. |
Llkoolaid | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 10:48 am     I think that the type of person that Jason is, that once he came to our board that is where he would stay. Don't we have the cleanest board. |
Fanny | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 10:53 am     Hmmmmmm, I don't think so, Twiggy. I think he started posting only after he was evicted. But his postings were like I said earlier...generic messages that were for the most part not BBFC specific. I could definitely be wrong, though. It wouldn't be the first time! |
Sanfranjoshfan | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 10:58 am     Fanny, Actually, Kent's posts were not always generic....I (being the argumentative gay man that I am LOL) took issue with some of his gay unfriendly sounding statments and we had a few extensive back-and-forth posts. In those at least, he was responding directly to me, using my name, etc... We actually came to somewhat of a mutual understanding on the issue. :-) Just wanted to point out that I'd never seen him post here before he was evicted and that he did, indeed, respond directly to some folks posting here... |
Twiggyish | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 11:01 am     I remember that Sanfran. When in the house, he mentioned our website and at one time he mentioned that he posted here in the past. (During the first BB) |
Fanny | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 11:03 am     Ok I stand corrected! |
Landi | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 11:03 am     hello... my name is Landi... and I'm a BB addict... and I ADMIT IT! Up until last week .. I have been lurking through BB1 and BB2 and BB3. BBFC/TVCH has the BEST boards, and I'm sure that Jason is ONE OF US! He may not be a poster, but he is definitely a "WE" not a "THEY". |
Lurknomore | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 11:32 am     A little more info Fanny...when Kent was IN the BB house he mentioned this site by name and was clearly familiar with it. So whether he simply came here to read the posts during BB1 or actually posted I don't think we ever found out. But that makes him one of us, as I clearly think lurkers count (being a reformed one myself hehe). Also, as SanFran pointed out, in the beginning after his eviction, he did post here a lot. But he seemed to want a adoring throng not an exchange (even though his posts often were filled with personal sentiments and opinions). But they certainly were not just promos. They were direct interaction. |
Fanny | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 12:19 pm     Thanks, Lurk. You know what they say about old age & memory. Now that I'm reminded, I do recall Kent's personal posts back then. But I still believe his more recent messages are dropped into whatever sites he chooses and that he doesn't personalize them. Don't get me wrong, Kent was always one of my favorites from BB2. That's probably why I'm feeling a little sensitive about his posts--wishful thinking that he really was communicating with us directly and not just using us for promoting his stuff. Of course, if I'm wrong and if he were to correct me I'd fall over dead of shock and embarassment. You might sense that I'm a teeny tiny bit hesitant to go out on a limb here! Oh well, what the heck. Slap me down, folks! I can take it!!!!!!!! (cringe) Please mods don't get mad at me for being off topic. (Go Jason, again) |
Sia | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 12:40 pm     Wouldn't it be interesting to learn that the tapes of past BB seasons that Shapiro sent to this year's hamsters were specifically tailored for each houseguest? Chiara's tape would have had lots of footage of Jordan. "Chiara, we want you to be this year's Jordan." "Gerry, you're the oldest guy, so that makes you the 'Dad.' Don't be as weird as George (rockets in the shower) or as nervous as Kent (cigarettes, toothpicks), but make the role yours." I've wanted Jason to win since the bios came out on the CBS site! Go, Jason! |
Kminfinity | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 12:54 pm     I don't know how many of you follow Survivor, but the general consensus is that the reality show producers in general, and Mark Burnett (Survivor producer) in particular, have a kind of love-hate relationship with the net. They love the attention and publicity, but hate that we are "out of their control." The consensus also is that MB will never knowingly cast a Survivor Net Spoiler. I'd bet that Arnold also would not do so willingly. It might make the show too self referential and "introspective", if you know what I mean.. So if Jason is/was a regular on the boards, he was wise to keep it to himself. |
Twiggyish | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 01:05 pm     Don't feel bad Fanny, I felt that way, too. |
Ryn | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 01:32 pm     Stepping off topic for a second..... To the best of my knowledge, Kent was never a member before BBII (that I know of - doesn't mean he wasn't). He did come here and also visited other boards after BB II - he was very much a part of this board for a short time. But then he took offense to a few of our members posts and vanished for a while. IMHO, for the most part since then he has pretty much posted advertisements for whatever he is up to - cut and pasting a message from elsewhere. I personally did exchange a few e-mails with him after his eviction and he seemed to me to be the same person outside the house as inside, and thats not a bad thing, I liked him. I just think now he has decided on how to direct his net activities and though he sees this site as a good one to get a message to fans, he does not visit it frequently. anyways...... I still have no answer on Jason being a member previously, I just don't know and I really doubt that his brother or luvbb will know either. But, I am sure we will find out when he is out of the house, or after the show is over |
Lurknomore | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 01:41 pm     Ryn...much as I'd love to see him here, let's hope he doesn't get here till AFTER the show is over |
Fanny | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 01:46 pm     Hey...maybe Jason is really Ewing. |
Lurknomore | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 01:48 pm     Nice thought Fanny but NAW. We would have heard a TON of conspiracy theories by now if he were ;) |
Fanny | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 02:10 pm     Yeah but Ewing would have been the one to start 'em up!! And since he didn't and since there aren't any....well, hmmmmmmmmmmmm...
(and tongue firmly planted in cheek) |
Car54 | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 02:24 pm     If Jason is Ewing, then I DEFINITELY want to see what he has to say after he leaves the house! Maybe he found the ultimate way to get an answer to all his theories. (And he is doing a heck of an American accent!) |
Juju2bigdog | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 02:50 pm     Maybe Jason is Aaronboy!!! He disappeared last year and hasn't been back this year. He was a BB applicant last year. |
Whit4you | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 03:04 pm     Well I don't think that Kent was an active poster here prior to BB II or he might have mentioned that here after his exit. But I think he had was most likely a reader here since he mentioned this site specifically a few times while in the house. He made an attempt to be active here after BB II but um didn't seem to like the personal attacks against him. There were a # of people with some pretty strong anti Kent sentiments who seemed to forget he's a real person with real feelings not just a character on a TV show lol. Kent's a big boy though I'm surprised he couldnt take the heat - lol. He has as others mentioned posted here a few times since then so he hasn't washed his hands of the TVCH completely. Seems to me the majority here like Jason (at least at this point) so hopefully if he don't win he'll be joining us - But if he win's I'm sure he'll be to busy to be part of our group ya know I read other peoples "lfp's" here and elsewhere regarding that convo - and I was definately NOT alone in picking up the fact that it appeared he was one of US last year I think I'll have to try his tactic - and start referring to ya'all as "they" and "those net viewers" hehe.. then I won't have to feel like I'm an addict after all I'm not one of "them" |
Ryn | Monday, August 05, 2002 - 03:04 pm     Ewing has joined in the last month, he just never posted (I don't know why, but I personally approved his account). |
