'X Factor' judge accused of cheating
09:16 BST, Saturday 4th September 2004 -- by Daniel Kilkelly
X Factor judge Louis Walsh was forced to axe a band from the show, after it emerged that he used to be their manager, The Mirror reports today.

Three members of the group, Co-Ed, who auditioned for X Factor, were originally part of a band called Six, who won Irish Popstars three years ago, and were signed up by Walsh.

An insider told the newspaper, "Louis picked the name Co-Ed and told them what songs to learn for their audition. They had to be seen auditioning like everyone else.

"The plan was for them to breeze through the audition, bootcamp and final selection stages so they would be part of the live TV vote in October.

"The producers were furious. Simon also agreed it would be stupid to continue. So, under pressure, Louis axed them."

An ITV spokesperson said, "Louis has made no secret of the fact he knew them from Six. But he categorically denies he offered them a place in the final.

"There is absolutely no manipulation. We have such a broad range of contestants we don't need to make good television - the pictures tell the story."

The newspaper also reveals that video footage leaked onto the internet shows judges Simon Cowell and Sharon Osbourne encouraging contestants to stand up for themselves while on camera.

The show begins tonight at 7.35pm on ITV1.

For shame.

Ah once again our resident attention-seeker "Mod" does something that would get other posters at least given out to.

Can we give him his own thread for this stuff?

Signore Fancy Pants

Did a Mod really bump a 14 year old thread?

Is that not in contravention of the Charter they are here to uphold or to the general usage of the site?

Precedence set.

Mint Sauce

Seriously! A mod resurecting a 14 year old thread and for a news dump post!

:mad:

Reported!

Trigger Happy

Can we vote to impeach the mod?

There was also the "Sorry the site was down" thread where he spilled Coke on the server (hur-hur!) :rolleyes: and whatever else since (I haven't been here much lately)

Seriously CMods/Admins.. action needs to be taken here. This guy's nonsense is undermining the rules of the forum and Moderation itself

Time for a Mod cull. Always a good idea, keeps them honest.

What's pissing me off most about it is that this guy's infantile "LOOK AT ME" shyte is through actions that would get other posters sanctioned.

He wants to be "funny" fair enough, but play by the rules the rest of us are expected to.

Protest by Necro raising loads of old threads!

I suppose there is the baited breath, sweaty palmed anticipation of which ancient thread will get bumped next. Something about Bebo or Guinness Light?

I just have a very low tolerance for double-standards and idiocy.

Bumping ancient threads is a no-no.. news-dumping is a no-no. These are long-established rules. If you or I did it, we'd get a warning and the thread would be locked. Yet this guy gets away with it because of his Mod status.

As I said before, there has been thousands of posts about the rules and moderation on this site (and AH), and FPC's need for attention isn't helping the perception IMO - especially when there HAS been a general improvement in the last while.

I'm assuming freshpopcorn has been allowed to do this, to generate conversation on threads?

Now that you mention it. This thread has been pretty much off topic, and allowed to continue as so, despite having at least one reported post. This thread is now full of the stuff we are not allowed to do. Seemingly for someones ammusment, if your assumption is true.

Ok what the hell!!

Boards was here in 2004 :eek:

But seriously why not just start a new thread or post it in The Preggers thread

Is common sense gone
