Yes, I did. I wrote three e-mails to the BB3 houseguest and this person even wrote me back three e-mails. I had a fun time!

Still e-mailing to one from BB2 and one from BB1!

I also have written twice to one of the HGs. I got a response both times. Unlike the way she appeared on the show Chiara is very down to earth and like the rest of us in the world. She is very excited to talk to her fans and responds within a couple of days. I wrote to Jason like every woman in America and had no response. But if you want to hear from one of them Chiara as I said before, will respond and is really down to earth and happy to hear from folks.

I wrote to Roddy, asking him about a restaurant he mentioned on the show. I got a nice note back.

Star and Sher--thanks for that information. It's great that they are willing to respond back to "normal" messages. Although maybe by now that is what they crave.

After wtaching Chiara, it's good to know that someone is getting to see a down to earth person instead of what the game may have caused her to create.

ok call me cynical but i'm just not filled with "warm fuzzies" knowing <Chiara> is nicely answering her letters from "300 lb internet freaks." Lance it might be a wee bit generous of you to allow that the game caused her to think that way (not that I think that is what you were saying LOL).

Two words popped into my mind reading this (yes call my cynical again)...they were "damage control."

Well sheesh Lurknomore.. this was a game.. and this is the exact reason I avoided posting in here during the game. No matter what I said got slammed. These are REAL people and they talked like most real people do in private to their friends. And if you are above gossip with your friends then I commend you. Sorry I won't bother to post in this area again. I thought tentions were not so high now and we could look at the HGs as people at this point.
BTW I am not a 300lb. internet freak!

Ok, I'm not an internet geek. :)

I think both situations are certainly possible--Chiara got caught up in the game and just it all out and went wild--and is now doing damage control.

I think it's possible she went wild (by nature or because of the game) and who she is in the game is different from everyday like. I think the same is possible for Dani and Roddy.

Time and consistency will be the telling mark.

Starshadow I appreciate your post- my son Zachy, age 10 and a member here, would love to write to Chiara- she was his favorite. (And we coexisted very peaceably-lol!) Knowing there is a possibility she will write back will really excite him.

Excuse me, were you referring to yourself when you typed that???? It's nice (NOT) to know that is how you imagine some of us here as being. How Rude! Maybe you should go back to "lurking" JMO *sighs and shakes head*

uhmmm guys,,,while you are jumping on Lurk...I guess I could say..that I think that comment was in quotes for a reason...because that is what CHIARA called us when we figured out her snappiung code...and continued to bash on the internet viewers because we were ruining her fun...I dont think Lurk thinks that of anyone here..or was trying to insult anyone...

but that is just my thought

Lurk was using Chiara's words. Chiara mentioned "300 pound internet geeks". I am 6'4" and weigh 190 so I am excluded from this discussion.

I thought it was Lisa who said that 300 pound geek comment *shrugs* was a while back. It was Lisa anyway who mentioned that she didn't want any female fans..or wasn't expecting any...and if they were..they must be lesbian...*again shrugs*..been awhile and don't wanna search thru the mounds of archives. THE POINT IS...com'on..the game is over. Let people enjoy the receiving of email from their favorite houseguest no matter how YOU felt about them. I remember receiving email last year from Sheryl and was floored...I felt really special. Haven't bothered this year because I don't think anybody was as classy as Sheryl was last year. So...let the fans enjoy sharing their tails of email receival without flaming them or the houseguest.

LOL Woodpecker....ok I stand corrected! Yes I agree Catbowl....If you receive an e-mail from your favorite HG then you should feel "special". :-)

No, it was definitely Chiara who made the 300lb comment. Funny how she could judge and be critical of us (and she did insult Internet fans on more than one occasion), yet we are supposed to be understanding and sympathetic of her?

I don't think so.

Why do folks take that "300 pound internet freak" comment so personally? It was made in anger after the internet figured out her code. Big deal. Just another random comment made by a HG that some are choosing to be oversensitive about LONG after the fact.

Heehee- Zachsmom...we sure can be. I never took offense to it- sure I'm on the internet a lot and was all about the live feeds BUT I thought it was kinda funny that she said it just because it's such a gross generalization! Jason could possibly be considered an internet freak if he hadn't been on the inside by the sounds of it. He hardly fits that profile. Nonetheless, that is one of those stereotypes that has developed.

But yeah, in terms of Chiara- it's ridiculous to talk trash about the people watching and supporting the show that you chose to be on, and then assume that those same people may not have a highly favorable opinion of her. It's the whole biting the hand that feeds you thing.

I did write to a few of the HG and only heard from Roddy who I want to add was very nice in his letter. I thought I might here from Amy seeing I told her that I live down road from her but so far no. I decided after hearing from Roddy to write all the HG just to say Great Job!! and then see who takes the time to write back. Just for fun. I also think that they are all winner's to just be picked out of who know's how many people to go on BB3. Those of you who haven't heard back we have to remember some of these people are just getting home now. I know when I take a trip it takes me a week just to catch up on the everyday things. So don't give up!!

Question: How do you guys find the e-mail addresses of these people? I'm not asking for specifics, just generally, how did you find them?
