Mrose4243 | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:00 pm     For the last half hour at least...... all 4 feeds are on Roddy exercising alone, and Gerry sleeping in the chair outside. Why oh why can we not see what's going on INSIDE the house.... there are 6 other people, there must be something else going on that is more interesting that THIS!!!! |
Draheid | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:01 pm     Its the National Oceanographics channel ... two shots of a Beached Whale and two shots of a Blowhard!!!
LOL |
Bmh | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:03 pm     LOL IMAO..DRAHEID!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Mrose4243 | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:04 pm     Thank you SO much for that laugh..... I needed it! My annoyance is reduced to a degree that I can still probably watch this drivel a little while longer! Thanks, again! ; ) |
Ladytex | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:05 pm     LOL, Draheid, funny. But I agree with Mrose, it is very annoying to have four feeds on the two of them, when you just know there is scheming (sp?) going on elsewhere. |
Maris | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:06 pm     the key is Mrose, you have to find your own entertainment in the feeds. Remember every cloud has a silver lining. |
Goddess146 | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:06 pm     The feeds this year are a fraud. There are not what was advertised. How long are we going put up this crap before doing something? |
Kiari | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:06 pm     Im pissed too. |
Maris | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:07 pm     Goddess, Goddess, Goddess we will put up with this crap as long as we get morsels like we got today of Josh going ballistic and Lisa doing her rendition of the Diana Ross song "I'm coming out" |
Bmh | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:09 pm     LOL..maris..I am literally going to do from laughing..ya the really good clips we do get make up for it.. |
Mrose4243 | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:09 pm     I know, Goddess, this is the worst year ever. Between the FOTH, and one or two feeds of the most boring crap going on in the house... it is such a ripoff. But, what can we do, we are at their mercy because of our horrible addiction. "This is your brain on BB" |
Nermal | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:09 pm     Is there some way to contact them and complain? Everyone else is in the house and we have all four feeds on the same one or two people working out! We don't want four feeds on the same thing!!!! Ok, now as I am typing this all four go to FOTH! This is not what they advertised! |
Gina8642 | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:11 pm     Feed two Jason cleaning the Lizard cage. Not exactly riviting, but at least it is different. |
Mrose4243 | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:12 pm     Jason just said: "Where is everyone" "Its just weird to look around and see no-one" Yeah, Jason, we know what you mean..... |
Draheid | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:16 pm     Now it's Marcellas in a 2x2 shot on the QuadCam ...gees people isn't there anything better than this going on in the house??!!?? |
Gina8642 | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:16 pm     How come in the middle of the night the quad cam has four unique images of HGs sound asleep. But now, in the middle of the evening with have only two unique shots, both pointed at Jason grating something??!!?? Where are the women???? There's Marc napping - real napping, not pretend. hmm... |
Bmh | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:18 pm     ok see this is what it would be like without the women in the house..thats why I was complaining that if Lisa left I would die..imagine just guys in the house..it would be awful |
Bbrules4ever | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:26 pm     i am so angry why do we have to watch only roddy on the feeds? are the producers saving the good stuff for tv?????GGGrrrRRRRR!!! |
Goddess146 | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 08:41 pm     What can we do? The live feeds are advertised on TV and at Real.com as: four live feeds (not one or two), the image on the TV shows four different images on each of the feeds, unrestricted (tv ad), uncensored (real.com), be the first to see (cbs.com), see what you probably shouldn't (cbs.com), see scheming (cbs.com), 24/7 (TV, cbs.com, real.com). There are lots of possible arguments about the meaning or interpretation of these words. The real question is what did the user who paid for the feeds based upon these ads think they were getting? The user buying the feeds was not in a position to interpret the meaning of the words as anything other than that meaning used in normal communications. If the words have different meanings to CBS/ASP, they were in the position to know that. They were in the position to use words that gave their true intent. Using words to convey something that is not true in an ad in fraud. The CBS/ASP/Real ads for the feeds are fraudulent. They are deceptive and not truth full. This is against the law. It is against the law in the state of California. It is against US Federal Law. It is against FCC rules and regulations. So, who cares? Do you care that you have been defrauded? Are you willing to just sit back and take it? Would someone in any of these agencies care that perhaps 100,000 (last years numbers) spent $24.95 based upon fraudulent advertising? Would the sponsors of the TV show care if their customers associated them with a fraudulent product? Are you willing to take action? |
Spunky | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:03 pm     I'm sure if a lot of viewers keep complaining to Real and BB producers sooner or later the feeds will be made free again. When they're free people are bound to be more tolerant. But to pay for lousy feeds must convince a lot of people to cancel and this is why I say Real will make them free. So, keep sending your complaints to the right people and hopefully we'll see some changes. |
Draheid | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 10:57 pm     I finally gave up on the feeds ... constant duplicate windows and such. I only kept it going this long because I wanted to see how long I could go uninterrupted ... made it just over 3 HOURS with only 3 minor hickups ... quick reload and they were back at full speed QuadCam @ high-speed! WooHoo. |
Wcv63 | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 11:01 pm     I've only sent two complaints and prefaced each with my suspicion that complaints are immediately trashed and not even read by CBS, Shapiro, the Production staff or even an intern. I practically dared them to show me I'm wrong by replying.... Not even a form letter. IMO they don't read them. They don't care. It makes no difference. It simply legitimizes the concept of the show for them to offer the feeds. |
Spunky | Saturday, August 10, 2002 - 11:12 pm     If this thing wasn't so addicting I swear we should all boycot the Feeds by sending nasty Ads on top of Real, crying "Fraud, Fraud"... but I'm afraid they're the bigger fish and we know what happens to the smaller ones....eh, eh... |
