It's not that this isn't a good idea....but let me tell you the experience I had with someone in the biz who posted on the website about his show.

I had posted on the Trading Spaces bb (show on The Learning Channel) for quite awhile. One night I saw an episode of "What Not to Wear". The guy on the show at the time (Wayne Scot Lukas), absolutely INSULTED the midwest while advising someone from Iowa. You have to ditch the HICK look.

I posted on the website. WSL had been wearing a camouflage puffy jacket while advising this woman that she needed to ditch the Iowa and look towards New York.

He didn't take it kindly when I posted and said he had very little room to talk, since he was dressed like military marshmallow man.

Well....he sent a response that stunned about, oh, everyone on the board...He threatened me...saying that he could ruin my Jeopardy appearance, that he KNEW people. I was @#$% scared.

I adore WSL!!! He was a hoot. I really miss him on that show. He didn't diss Iowa, either. Obviously he was being snarky like the producers told him to. Since the opera singer still corresponds with him, I don't think she was all that upset either. Do you really think someone like WSL has the time or the desire to mess with someone's appearance on Jeopardy? Give me a break! Loved the camo jacket, btw.

Did you see the episode in question? I wonder why WSL isn't there anymore...he always had such devoted Waynettes on the bulletin board.
Unfortunately he DID threaten me in a really vicious way on a public BB.
I wish it hadn't happened, but it did. I wish him luck...he actually went out to lunch with a friend (from other bb) in New York and she asked him about it and he apologized.

I saw all the epis and I saw the exchange between you guys on the bb, and I think you are blowing it out of proportion. Besides, if he apologized, why are you bringing it up now? It is so three years ago.

Wouldn't it be cool if WSK styled Jim Carrey!

I wrote about it because it is an example of what can happen when a celeb posts on a site about them. First of all a possee is formed of posters who are going to fawn over him. That happened...no one could say anything at ALL slightly negative about him without dozens of Waynettes jumping down their throat. As a result, the whole board just became a bunch of sycophants. He should never have let TLC make him into such a snarky stereotype. There were quite a few posts there that were BRUTAL...mine wasn't. And if you were reading you *did* see the threat he made (which was way, WAY out of line) on a public bb. What a coincidence that you posted there, too. He never should have, that's for sure.

I agree. This is mostly why I think it would be bad if Jim posted here and everyone worried that he was going to read what they wrote. Please...keep it a mystery, because once posters know that you can communicate with a celeb on the bb, the whole tone changes. People join in order to say horrible things. People join in order to say wonderful things. Nobody keeps it honest anymore because they are too busy trying to attract negative Or positive attention from that celeb.

People will join, in order to simply say something about another poster...or a post.

Wise words indeed from the lady in the corner with the bird on her shoulder.

You're physic, you are.

lol..........yep, it's a mystery indeed.......... .............but i for one would not like his identity to be outed if he were on the board, because of the press. They would love to nail a celeb........and as genuine fans we can appreciate he needs to be careful about that..........
