they do but they normally assume a 'better idea'

They do read these forums. It would be stupid not to. I would even go so far as to say you are completely stupid to think anything you have to say on here is worth anything more than a glance and mild consideration. They don't care one iota about your whiney wants and bitching beliefs. Hardly anyone on here even calls in regularly. It astounds me how many of you carry a candle of hope that your opinion matters on an essentially anonymous forum talking about a few programs that have absolutely zero artistic merit. Have you seriously got nothing better to do and nothing more constructive to add to the world than commenting on what is essentially and quite literally WANK television.

Sad, really sad.


There are no jokes here.

Welcome to the forum Jacques.......sorry Joker

oh hes completely right, i know for a fact the producers/owners read the forum but why would they listen to anything thats said? they have their own business model and it works, we can post as many polls and requests as we want but they have their own idea which they will always think is better and will go with that.
Modsta has even said in chat he has had ideas hes given in the past but they go with their own plan so what difference does creating a poll make?

the point of the channels is that they want to make money nothing else they are not there for anyones demands and needs, otherwise everycall would be local rate and texts would be about 10p, some people take these way too seriously, the channels are just a bit of fun when my mrs is out and thats it. Why are people getting so wound up about the formats of the shows? there is so much more to life than watching a model on a bed reading texts out saying 'touch your bum'' get your tits out' 'wear your stockings' 'can this girl wear your shoes' etc etc. If thats what really gets you going then good luck to you, bit boring though really as its just variations of the same 4 or messages over and over again, the girls must be bored shitless reading them! although at times the xtra show could be a bit of a laugh, it got boring pretty quick when they diverted their attention to encouraging everyone to send pictures of dicks.

I dont agree that another phone show was required and feel that a text and presenting show does offer something a bit different to the generic format on each night but at the end of the day its just a tv programme, its nobody's right to have it presented a certain way or to be able to send texts in, the people who do complain the most dont seem to be able to stop themselves watching, attempting to text, commenting or ranting about it. if it bothers you that much then just dont watch it, if you know your text wont be displayed - dont text it, its very simple. once you work that out then you will find yourself enjoying the show for what it is alot more rather than sitting there getting upset your text wont be displayed or that Jodie only gave your dick a 5 out of 10 and your mobile bill wont be as high!.

Nice to get an active response!

If you took my initial post negetively then that's down to you. If you heard me 'say it out loud' you would have taken away another perspective intoned by my delivery. Such is the problem of text/type. I was stating a matter of fact. As i also hinted at if you wanted to do something about it you would surely meet up and do something about it. Nobody took over the world or changed laws by sitting on an old chair in front of their computers.

I'm sure most people are aware that the shows are there for fun for those that want that sort of thing. Quetzalcoatl, i have no more serious issues than the next downtrodden citizen of a broken regime.

no problems with your comments at all mate, i like what you said as its relevant, hopefully people have realised my comment is based on fact.

I honestly think there are far more important things going on in the world these days than getting angry that your not able to text a silly message to a girl on tv that you have no real connection with.

Why are people getting so upset at the creation of a poll? This forum exists for people to express, share and discuss their thoughts about the babe shows - good, bad, funny, serious, angry, indifferent or whatever. A poll is just another way to do that - it's a method of gauging opinion, nothing more, nothing less.

How often do you have to call to be considered a regular caller?

Because they might find ways of making more money.

if you read my post fully, thats the point i made! they know what works for them and makes them the most money. whilst im sure they may get ideas from the forum, if it was going to be a money spinner they would have been there and done that.
Clearly a programme where people send pictures of their genitals at £3 a time doesnt make as much as a model girating around a bed in a pair of knickers.

Even if proper hardcore content was available on adult pay-per-view/subscription channels, I have my doubts about how much money they would make for that exact reason...

My information is around 2% of viewers, across all the free-to-air phone sex channels, use the services advertised onscreen... There is only so much that can be done with this type of format, as it's too basic to allow any real creative input.

interesting point about the 2%, do you know how many viewers the average night gets?
also are you talking 2% of people watching or with access to watch?
