Priya Appreciation Society

Here is the video above, I know Ryan's sister will probably either put up Skye or Lina as her second. Sigh.
 
They may have been edited and Priya could have been given 1 point?
Wishful thinking

She probably will be up but it's still annoying that the showed that. I'm not watching anymore clips just in case
 
Even if she is up, judging by the crowd reaction the last couple of nights (and voters had a week off last week as well) I think she'll be OK. If Leo and Lina are up, I'd pick that they would be the ones to go.


ps - I also have to laugh that @MrPRiSuS has had more screen time than Lina :D (but also kinda feel bad for her as well).

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.

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. 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.

It happens! All my favourites seem to come third, Sara marie, Paul, vesna, Estelle, and now tahan. 3rd! It's the legendary number to me ;)
 
I have no idea what the arguments are really about and I've never seen what David's family/friends said about other people, but I would let them carry on being fools if that's what they're doing. Them carrying on only makes David look bad in the end.
Just let them be and if people get turned off by them, then all the better.
If David's family/friends were smart, they would be finding positive ways to help David's cause instead of focusing on the negative aspects.

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.

Thanks for explaining where you were coming from, however to me none of it excuses what happened last night. You're attacking another family member for saying they would have done something that Bhushan was also planning on doing. From your recount of events, if David's father hadn't been nervous Bhushan would have gone for David's throat. Don't get me wrong. I have no issue what so ever if Bhushan had have gone for David in there but attacking Mel for saying she would have done just that by pointing out that Priya is being a snake in the grass and starting false rumours about David is hypocritical and ridiculous. Of course family members want to point out the shit sides of their loved one's competition. It's no different from Tahan's mum last year bringing up Jade's die in a hole comment (and even saying it completely out of context).

To be honest I pay little attention to SM, my only care is how people are treated on here. On SM the crazies are 10x worse than you get here and as a result I have to assume that a loved ones' reaction to that and the defensiveness it would bring up would be 10x more severe. Yes, I think it's great that @MrPRiSuS is composed enough not to fight back and say nasty things when people say shit about Priya, but not everybody is wired that way. If little internet warriors were going for my family member on SM I'd be hurling every insult under the sun around cyberspace...and from what I know of you (especially what came out last night) you would do EXACTLY the same thing. It's a human reaction to feeling like your loved one is being hard done by. Also I find it kind of ironic that you're spraying this shit at them when you not only supported Tahan while her boyfriend was trying to scam people out of money for votes...but you've even tried doing the same thing yourself and have been slagging off David on SM. Glass houses and all that.

Anyway I feel bad I've posted this in a Priya Appreciation thread so I won't respond anymore unless you feel the need to bring it up elsewhere. Bottom line I found your attacks on David's family members to be nasty, hypocritical and completely unjustified based on what has apparently triggered it. I understand you see yourself as a good friend of Bhushan so I'm sure that is compromising your judgement and making you defensive but he doesn't need you to start nasty sledging matches in his honour. In fact from what I've seen of him I say he's probably quite upset that happened.
