You have to go through here first though -

Read it..... ..... .....Finally Get It!!

Only one other option, and that is whatever happens is real and unplanned. Well, now we can count that one right out, it will be either of the other 2. Or both, in case 'Full On Emergency Broadcast' is needed - Some presents cost a lot nowadays

We never get to see what the front door looks like from the other side do we....

Never had the phrase "What on earth does she see in him?" been more applicable.

And will continue to be done over and over ad nauseam, because there is an audience who can't get enough of it.

It was only when she left (when all the others did) that i saw the hero worship kick in, there was far more of an outcry over her disappearance than any other apartment. I knew she was popular, i myself thought she was really attractive, but it was the sheer amount of complaints that she had gone that did shock me.

I still think that many, if now not all of the tenants, especially the barcas, are there simply because they have committed to playing ball, that;s why they were accepted. It's no longer the 'Regular everyday' couples and singles, instead applicants vetted then chosen because they say 'Yes' to specific directives beforehand. Come on, how many actually still believe that all of them just happen to behave in the same way - All girls are bi, all couples are swingers and all visiting friends are into threesomes. Surely everyone has seen through it by now!

When you think for example of how far they moved Leora just so she could be still on air, to be part of it all. As if they said "Don't panic, your this important to us". It wasn't 'Ok, we have to make changes here, let's look for new people', it was straight away 'Keep the old brigade at all costs'. And when they are perceived as so important, they will get lazier and lazier, because they in their own eyes are doing everything right.

It is still strange why they are SO concerned about getting back the old brigade, there is an weird over willingness to make sure they are still part of it all.

True, they know if some left to another rival site, the viewers would follow them over. Again agreed. Bosses can't show or accept they are doing wrong, that's a sign of weakness. And NO boss wants to show weakness.

Can't comment about VH having never watched it, but as far as rlc is concerned, to me it's either - 1. They can't change things (Out of their hands, contracts etc etc) 2. They don't want / feel to need to change. Either way, looks like very little will be of any difference any time soon.

Sounds like an interesting convent

That apartment has been a complete joke for a long time anyway. It's amazing how many people are in line to go in there to enjoy her company, she must have more 'Close' friends than anyone else.

Well, there's been more than a few comments about what that apartment must smell like at times.....

Very true, but some actually admit to knowing its all fake, but are still happy to watch as long as something happens. With that kind of adulation, its hardly surprising why rlc won't change.

The entire point of this apartment is simply to get attention for her at all costs. Anyone who goes there is only in there for one reason, to help her get views and bonuses. It's all planned, all created - Just think of the sheer amount who have 'visited' there in the last 2 years. The very epitome of how rlc lost the plot. She craves attention, the bosses are desperate to keep her. Hence the never ending run of shows with whoever happens to be there. This apartment has been a laughing stock for a long time. And thankfully many, many have realized this.

But right now, it's a case of "Someone else will do it" or "I don't have to". When someone is wrapped in cotton wool and brought out for a catwalk, or a photo shoot, or in an apartment full of cameras, they are being told "We'll look after everything, you just do your job". So they begin to act like they don't need to look after things, because it's taken care for them. Like the old sheepskin coat wearing, cigar smoking music managers of the past, or the modern manufactured boyband bosses - "Just sign there son, we'll take care of all the paperwork, you sing your song". And what happens? At some point the people/product is no longer viable, so it's replaced by another one. Then that person/product is left to fend for themselves. These people choose to live a pampered life, and who can blame them for the riches they are promised. So they begin to believe their own hype, forgetting they are just considered a money making commodity. And it's a long drop back down to planet earth for them when it stops. And it's exactly the same for this lot.

Remember the old original B1 - They couldn't even turn the TV off! Blaring away all night and day. Imagine them suddenly losing their sugar daddy agents and bosses and staring alone into the real world. Unless they could google it, they'd have no idea what to do.

SORRY, MY MISTAKE - I mistakenly read that she was back, but i read it wrong, she hasn't returned. So i'm happy to correct it.

We constantly ask whether rlc can pull back out of the mire that they mostly created themselves, find new people who aren't playing to the cams, who actually look like they are ignoring the cams, like they are meant to do. Certainly not someone who deliberately played to cam, even waving to them after a 'Show'. That's where they went wrong in the first place. That's what turned people off. You hope they are listening. So they bring back Kitty.

It can hardly be a surprise when you look at what is being passed off as the product - A tiny amount of places, with very predictable actions taking place in there. It can only go so far before people get bored and walk away. The obsession with the Barcas is more than odd, whilst the bosses own obsession with hanging onto the likes of Leora and Masha for dear life seems a personal thing for them more than a business thing. If they present shit product, they should expect shit reactions!

Obsessed.

Oh of course you're right about the legal aspects, but as you say, the staring/attention seeking from not only tenants but also some guests took it away from voyeurism to plain performance. Kitty waving and blowing kisses to the cam, Leora and Masha making sure they have the right viewing angle for the cams etc....Originally people were meant to ignore the cams altogether. That's been blown away and replaced by a site just a fraction away from mfc. I just wish they stop the absurd pretense about it still being real. A lot of viewers are much smarter than bosses take them for.

According to the official definition in Collings dictionary - 1. countable noun A voyeur is someone who gets sexual pleasure from secretly other people having sex or taking their clothes off. Secretly. That's the key word. So, even the word is not applicable when you think about it!
