Keith Houchen Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 If its intelligent discussion not, "OMG what a knockout!11!!", than I disagree. I guess because the threads are usually quiet it's not so noticeable and annoying. There was a bit of that in the last UFC thread. To be honest, I can't understand why people can't wait until the end of an event, regardless of what sport it is, to post their opinions. Not only will it be better and mo thought out, but what is their train of thought. Do they think people are hanging on their words so they have to post them AS IT HAPPENS? I just don't get it, I guess.
Richie Freebird Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Is there nothing on tonight to warrant a gathering?
Moderators PowerButchi Posted December 27, 2011 Moderators Posted December 27, 2011 not on telly, no.
Richie Freebird Posted December 27, 2011 Posted December 27, 2011 Ah well. A couple just signed in, but then left before even changing names. Looks like it's not to be.
Mr. Seven Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 Ebb's live commentary in the MMA threads is always insightful. Chan Sung Jung just knocked out Mark Hominick in 7 seconds... WHAT THE FUCK!?!??! Thought provoking stuff.
Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted December 28, 2011 Paid Members Posted December 28, 2011 I see you just cherry picked that one. Besides as I said, we get so little of it in the threads it doesn't make much difference.
Mr. Seven Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 I beg to differ. Those threads are a nightmare. It's like reading Harry Knowles on speed.
Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted December 28, 2011 Moderators Posted December 28, 2011 I beg to differ. Those threads are a nightmare. It's like reading Harry Knowles on speed. Did you just do a "like X on Drug Y" line!? Oh, Seven
Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted December 28, 2011 Paid Members Posted December 28, 2011 Just stay out the MMA threads then. Everyone wins.
Keith Houchen Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 Just stay out the MMA threads then. Everyone wins. No they don't. People such as I don't get to see the event in every case, it's good to get opinions after the event, live discussion contributes fuck all. Plus, if it is ok for one thread, then it's ok for all. Edit - Woy, Seven didn't actually do that, did he. His comparison was a valid one, not like the ones mentioned in that TMWRNJ bit. Assuming that's what the link is of course, I didn't click it. Maybe I should.
Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted December 28, 2011 Paid Members Posted December 28, 2011 Seven makes it sound the threads are rife with live discussion, that's not at all the case in the past. There are a few posts but nothing like your insinuating (ie the Premier league thread)

There are a few posts but nothing like your insinuating (ie the Premier league thread) No, but it is there, even if it's one post. It has been pretty much eradicated in the prem thread, it is down to the odd post a month now and those who do it get warned and/or suspended. It's only fair that it is the same across the whole board.
Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted December 28, 2011 Paid Members Posted December 28, 2011 Take it up with the mods then.

Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted December 28, 2011 Paid Members Posted December 28, 2011 Myself personally, I can't be arsed posting while it's on live anyway. I'd rather wait till it's over and come on here after or the next day. When I'm watching something on telly I'm watching something on telly, You wouldn't watch a film you hadn't seen before and be doing a blow by blow account of it on MSN or whatever. Same with sports for me,
