Bachelorette 13 - Rachel Lindsay - SM Media - *Sleuthing Spoilers* Discussion - #8

bluwavz wrote:Who was it who said this season was going to be the next 1F vs. Arie on this board? I think we're there already. There's a very obvious tit for tat going on in this thread. Not even halfway through the season and we've gotten to this point. This is the kind of thing I expect later in the season. JMO.

Yup. I've actually started avoiding most of Rachel's threads for this very reason and it's unfortunate. I wish is wasn't the case but it seems to be descending quickly and it makes want to just stay in the former couples fan thread.

JMOAA

Yeah, lets throw stuff at the tvs but only the tvs

And we can like one better than the other without mudthrowing too. Wishful thinking eh! I blame RS for spoiling.
A little TLC will go a long way for sure. Imo

All opinions are welcome on this board am I not correct? I think people can totally be passionate about a couple and root for them while still sleuthing. I see nothing wrong with expressing how you feel as long as you don't state something as fact when it's an opinion and being respectful to other members is always key. I've seen nothing that alarming from my perspective on this board but maybe it's just me. Just passionate people rooting for either or. JMO

Please does anyone have a link to Mohit's dance lessons that those outside the US can watch? Tia

There are things about Rachel and all the F4 that I like and definitely things I don't like as well.  At this point, I don't care who ends up F1.  She made the choice that was best for her at the time, IMO.  It might not be popular or seem like the right choice to the viewing audience, depending on which spoiler is true and who the F1 actually is, but it's her choice.  She has to live with it, we don't!

Right there with you!

I am still not sure how we ended up here in Episode 3 and still have a whole season to get through. At this point, I wish someone would slip up and officially spoil the season so that I can drag myself away from the trainwreck. IMO the excessive fanning and baiting in GD threads makes the board less enjoyable while leaving a huge mess for the mods to clean up. I hope we can go back to discussing the season instead of arguing over which one in the F2 is better than the other coz IMO none of them including the lead are worthy of being put on a pedestal IMO. At this point, IMO all of them are just reality TV stars who chose to sign a ridiculous contract and put themselves out there for our entertainment. Time will tell who they truly are IMO.

All JMO.

It's okay to like or dislike anyone from this show and praise or criticize them. It's the tit for tat, back and forth that was going on in this thread that feels like less about either guy and more about being angry at other posters. JMO.

Was there a smoking gun in previous seasons this early? I want to know the endgame as well so I can move on!

IMO There is good back and forth. Sometimes the emotions come through in the post, and that's what has to stop. Don't make fun of the poster, just because you disagree with them, and are fanning hard. It comes across as so childish IMHO. Those types of posts will be and have been deleted.

For those of you who feel that way, please use the report post button, I'll be glad to delete.

At last count sleuthers located half of the contestants on their own without any spoilers. A lot of s/caps have been sleuthed and confirmed. There has been a lot of positive exchange and sharing of ideas. That's what we do here and that's what we'll always be doing. There is simply no room for rude posters, they will be deleted and banned. It's quite simple. Some have already been banned.

RS and his spoilers have nothing to do with what one choses to post on the board, IMO.  How you post is on you, not RS or anyone else, again, IMO.  If you choose to be snippy and rude, then that's on you.  If you choose to be nice and try to keep the peace, it's noticed and much appreciated.  

There are friendships formed from this and past boards that go back years.  That is why we aim to be team BBF before team anyone or anything else around here.

Andi's season. There was a video taken of Nick on the plane back home and he was blabbing on the phone about Andi rejecting him and choosing Josh.

I think if we all concentrate on the fact that Rachel says she is happy and in love....maybe we can stop belittling one guy to elevate our fave. At the end of the day the only opinion that matters on who is F1 is Rachel and the man she chose.
Both Bryan and Peter are good guys. IMO neither needs to be elevated and neither needs to be vilified.
Let's enjoy the vibrancy of this season and savor the beautiful, interesting travel that will frame Rachel's journey to find love.
This forum is a blessing. We can all come here for fun and escape to share our enjoyment of a silly reality TV show. We also more importantly have an opportunity to share with new friends from around the world. IMO that is very special and unique. Let's all enjoy our time with our forum friends and enjoy our diversity of opinions while exercising kindness. Happy Sunday Everyone!!    
All JMO

Yes and there was still discussion and sluething. Nicks phone call comes to mind, some still thought it was a plant (there are many other examples) So we keep looking and analyzing all season.
