Priya Appreciation Society

[Kaz]

We all know that @MrPRiSuS has taken shots at David in this thread. And you know what? It's completely understandable that he wouldn't like David when he and Priya don't get along in the house.

Like did you notice that she was nice to David when everyone was against him....and how he despises her and threatened by her.

Love you David but.....

I didn't even know about this until I read what @Gemini posted, so I searched.

I have been waiting for this exact SHIT to hit the ROOF. I've been keeping in my RAGE. David was my second favourite until about TEN days ago. Then I started seeing certain SISTERS posting "priya". DISGUSTING. Before anyone says, "your opinion shouldn't be affected by their posts", let me just say. WELL (and I have posted this before) my opinion was completely shaped by his sisters, and it's natural for me to have to make such an opinion from David's (unfortunate) association with them. Right now I don't care how lovely he is, I REFUSE to support anyone who is associated (even when it's not their choice) with DISGUSTING behaviour.

Some of you probably think it's not even a big deal. That lack of capitalisation symbolises HORRIBLE AND HORRENDOUS behaviour. I don't care if the SISTERS (actually one sister was the real perpetrator, not the other) started it, even if they didn't they PERPETUATED the use of "priya". The LACK of capitalisation symbolises a complete LACK OF RESPECT.Everyone has a right to have an opinion on other housemates. They do not have to support other housemates, they do not have to refrain from disliking other housemates and expressing such dislike. HOWEVER, family members of housemates SHOULD be held to a HIGHER standard. It is one thing for a certain sister to dislike Priya and express this, and ANOTHER THING to show callous disregard for them as a human being and be totally disrespectful.

The lack of capitalisation DEHUMANISES and DISRESPECTS Priya. I believe the main perpetrator's name is Mel. I also believe she is a mother of two. How would she like it if I knew the name of one of her children (let's call one Bobby), and instead of calling them by name I call them "your kid", even when talking to the child himself. This would completely DEHUMANISE the child. Most people would call this BULLYING towards a child. Now I understand that these are of relatively different gravities. However, let's say I'm a teacher at her child's school (oh look I'm apparently a "condescending" teacher like Priya) and I was writing kids names on the board. I write "Sarah", "James", "Tom" and then "bobby". How would Mel feel if she saw that? If she saw that done day after day? What would the impact be on her kid? She's a MOTHER for Christ's sake, some of us weren't even lucky enough to have one. And now she's perpetuating behaviour that any mother would not want done to their child. SHAME, SHAME ON ALL WHO PARTICIPATE.

Bhushan, Priya's husband, has never done anything similar, and has always been very respectful of other housemates. Especially so for David, despite their clear rivalry. He has not once attacked David in the same way that Mel has. I do not expect for all family members to not be judgemental and critical, but I do think it's important that they be RESPECTFUL. Even if Bhushan said things in PRIVATE, that were bad, this is COMPLETELY different to someone doing so publicly and ENCOURAGING others to do likewise.

I'm not asking for people to LIKE Priya. I'm asking that she be treated as an EQUAL HUMAN BEING. That she is RESPECTED. The same thing goes for other housemates. I am completely aware that I, and many others, have made disrespecting comments. BUT, I have never done so repeatedly (often in a completely jovial, and joking manner - not always, I'll admit) , nor encouraged such behaviour by others (a like does not constitute encouragement, I like when I laugh). AND without doubt, family members should be held to a HIGHER STANDARD.

I'm not in any way suggesting that Mel be banned from this site. I truly enjoy her input and would like to see more of it over the next fortnight or so. It is a shame that the past few days has ruined how I view her input. I am also disappointed in some posters who perpetuated this, when I really do enjoy what they otherwise say. Some David fans did not regress to such a poor behaviour standard, and I admire that (I'm thinking Kismet, whilst her posts sometimes SHIT me, I LOVE her input and RESPECT her completely). In saying this, it's a shame how people have acted recently. I would, however, really appreciate if people could PLEASE stop being disrespectful. RESPECT, not love or admiration, is ALL that I'm asking for. This WAS disrespectful, I will NOT have anyone tell me otherwise.

I have no shame in admitting that I REPORTED the fuck out of those posts. I do not hesitate to say that I contacted site moderators. Such behaviour is DISGUSTING, and we should NOT be allowing it on this forum. You're welcome to share this in the David Thread, you're welcome to show anyone you want, I do not care. I am standing up for what is RIGHT. I am in no way meaning insult, which I know this will create, because I am trying to RIGHT an insult. People have RUINED David for me, and I will NOT "work with" anyone who can't respect another human being.

Maybe I could get back on the David bandwagon if I see a full and genuine apology, not that anyone cares about me as an individual. AND I don't care if you reply refuting this. I stand by what I said as RIGHT, I will not drag myself down to any lower level.

MY ERECTION right now.

 

[Mrs Butterface]

Considering myself and @Insomniac are the only two "Jade fans" from last season that regularly post in support of David I think it's pretty obvious why I assumed your stabs about the Jade fans now supporting David must have been about one of us. If it wasn't who are you referring to?

If you honestly think I'd be "jabbing" at either of you - and ESPECIALLY you two in particular - then sadly I have to accept that after all this time you don't bloody know me at all. Seriously, come on now. I don't care that you like someone I no longer do or that you may not like someone I do. Look harder or maybe finally give it up 12 hours later. It wasn't you or her by any means but again if the shoe fits.

You know I love you girl and you normally school me on everything but there's nothing bad in the comments you posted. He's not - and I'm pretty sure he hasn't - taken a dig at David nor any other HM whether on here or on Twitter, etc.

No, just hinted that God may not like him. Poor David.

If you honestly think I'd be "jabbing" at either of you - and ESPECIALLY you two in particular - then sadly I have to accept that after all this time you don't bloody know me at all. Seriously, come on now. I don't care that you like someone I no longer do or that you may not like someone I do. Look harder or maybe finally give it up 12 hours later. It wasn't you or her by any means but again if the shoe fits.

I'm honestly baffled about it all. To be honest the last thing I would want to think is that you were referring to us. We ALL stayed here during the off-season and had a lot of fun doing so. For me the struggle lies when you told me to piss off earlier which I realise is something that can be said when you're riled up and don't want to hear me. But at the same time I did find it hurtful simply because I wasn't expecting it. I actually hadn't taken anything you said before that personally.

I seriously don't think I do after everything that went down. I just can't understand where it came from. I can understand saying things you shouldn't in the heat of the moment (I'm such a big culprit of this) but the way you went it just seemed so calculated and cruel I was shocked because I didn't realise you were like that. I just didn't know where it came from I guess and it's shaken me.

No, just hinted that God may not like him. Poor David.

Hahaha they certainly weren't the only examples of Bhushan having cracks at David either...but like I said, it's totally understandable for family members to have these type of feelings/reactions. How hard it must be to see your loved one in that kind of situation. You would be very protective and get on the defensive.

She's a MOTHER for Christ's sake, some of us weren't even lucky enough to have one. And now she's perpetuating behaviour that any mother would not want done to their child. SHAME, SHAME ON ALL WHO PARTICIPATE.

Bhushan, Priya's husband, has never done anything similar, and has always been very respectful of other housemates. Especially so for David, despite their clear rivalry. He has not once attacked David in the same way that Mel has. He may have made criticisms, some a little confronting, but he has ALWAYS been respectful. I do not expect for all family members to not be judgemental and critical, but I do think it's important that they be RESPECTFUL. Even if Bhushan said things in PRIVATE, that were bad, this is COMPLETELY different to someone doing so publicly and ENCOURAGING others to do likewise.

I'm not asking for people to LIKE Priya. I'm asking that she be treated as an EQUAL HUMAN BEING. That she is RESPECTED. The same thing goes for other housemates. I am completely aware that I, and many others, have made disrespecting comments. BUT, I have never done so repeatedly (often in a completely jovial, and joking manner - not always, I'll admit) , nor encouraged such behaviour by others (a like does not constitute encouragement, I like when I laugh). AND without doubt, family members should be held to a HIGHER STANDARD.

I'm not in any way suggesting that Mel be banned from this site. I truly enjoy her input and would like to see more of it over the next fortnight or so. It is a shame that the past few days has ruined how I view her input. I am also disappointed in some posters who perpetuated this, when I really do enjoy what they otherwise say. Some David fans did not regress to such a poor behaviour standard, and I admire that (I'm thinking Kismet, whilst her posts sometimes SHIT me, I LOVE her input and RESPECT her completely). In saying this, it's a shame how people have acted recently. I would, however, really appreciate if people could PLEASE stop being disrespectful. RESPECT, not love or admiration, is ALL that I'm asking for. This WAS disrespectful, I will NOT have anyone tell me otherwise.

I have no shame in admitting that I REPORTED the fuck out of those posts. I do not hesitate to say that I contacted site moderators. Such behaviour is DISGUSTING, and we should NOT be allowing it on this forum. You're welcome to share this in the David Thread, you're welcome to show anyone you want, I do not care. I am standing up for what is RIGHT. I am in no way meaning insult, which I know this will create, because I am trying to RIGHT an insult. People have RUINED David for me, and I will NOT "work with" anyone who can't respect another human being.

Maybe I could get back on the David bandwagon if I see a full and genuine apology, not that anyone cares about me as an individual. AND I don't care if you reply refuting this. I stand by what I said as RIGHT, I will not drag myself down to any lower level.

Not quite sure what to say to this, but I do thank you for getting your point across without resorting to name calling. I appreciate that, and it makes me more inclined to read, respect, and take on board what you have to say.

I seriously don't think I do after everything that went down. I just can't understand where it came from. I can understand saying things you shouldn't in the heat of the moment (I'm such a big culprit of this) but they way you went for us just seemed to calculated and cruel I was shocked because I didn't realise you were like that. I just didn't know where it came from.



Hahaha they certainly weren't the only example of Bhushan having cracks at David either...but like I said, it's totally understandable for family members to have these type of feelings/reactions. How hard it must be to see your loved one in that kind of situation. You would be very protective and get on the defensive.

I'll tell you exactly where it came from and no there was nothing calculated or cruel or even alcohol induced about it. I had sat there listening to Bhushan go on and on about David's dad and how he couldn't bring himself to say what he really wanted to out of respect for him once he was told that what they said would be broadcast to all the HMs unlike last year. And while he was now going to struggle to reword what he had planned to say, I got it. I'm a mum and if I were in the same boat I hope that people would temper their words when it came to my child despite it all being a game. Then as I was going through all the bumped threads as I normally do, I click on the David thread and my last unread post was not only one of David's sisters ripping into Priya yet again but being horrific about it. It's all down to editing with David. There are all these conversations that must have happened yet no one has a clue if they did so they're talking out of their asses, let alone people who haven't even been there recently to see the live feeds, if at all and yet it was excuse after excuse after excuse all while trashing Priya. With a capital P. Not a lowercase one. This has now come after I watched the same person go on a Twitter rampage by her own choice by hunting down everyone who used the DavidBBAU hashtag. And then I watched people who I can remember singing a very different tune last year agree with all of this crap when in actuality what Nick said about Jade let alone other HMs was nowhere close to that. So by the time I got to the end of that thread I was like here is this guy who is going to modify what he wants to say out of respect for David's father but yet again I've read his sisters totally trash people, including his wife. Actually the biggest target is his wife. It's all about the edit for David and everything's so unfair for poor, misunderstood David yet they're attacking not only her but other HMs based on the same limited footage.

That's where I'm coming from and that won't change. I wanted to comment when that thread about family members was made but I didn't as I know how one little thing I say can lead into WW1343. But that behaviour is crap and I'd say that if it were Bhushan or Tim's dad or Tahan's mum or Jade's dad or whomever acting that way. When you need to disparage someone repeatedly and so viciously, and not just one person but multiple HMs, to try to boost up someone else that says a lot about how little value you feel they have on their own. So yeah if I'm "cruel and calculated" by finally saying what so many of us have been thinking - including non Priya fans - then I'll gladly take that title. Won't get a tattoo to commemorate the award as they're a bitch to remove but I stand by what I said. Every word.

Thank you for your kind reply. I am just looking to see some more respect on this forum. To be honest, recent behaviour by many different supporters has made me considered leaving this forum. I cannot stand by and watch this happen. I was convinced to stay. I would really like it if everyone could at least refrain from dehumanising others, everyone has the right to be respected.

And I'm not having a go at you David' beard. But anyone who wants to trivialise my post, I again say SHAME. I didn't feel the need to quote certain behaviour, but I know that at the start of a sentence "Priya" was being capitalised, since grammatically correct, and then in the middle a lack thereof. Again, can we just all be respectful. Thank you. Once this is achieved we can all go back to stanning for the intellectual prowess of a David/Prisus love child.

Agree. I feel the same way.

I am not saying I have been angel, because I haven't, but some of the things that have been said over the past several weeks, has been way over the to top & members will not forgive or forget what has been said.

Can we spread this like wildfire like they did for Tahan having a racecar boyfriend last year?? Where is lisbug when you actually need her?

That still gets under my skin for some reason. Yes, I am a tahan stan, big time tahan stan, so much so, that I even consider her to be one of the greatest, if not the greatest female hm! The rich boyfriend thing annoyed the eff out of me it really did. Who gives a crap, it doesn't take away that she was a freaking amazing hm! *breathes*

See still not over it! Lol.
