Paid Members tiger_rick 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, You don't normally get a 10-15 minute break in a film. I don't mind all live posts. Like comments on an incident in the footy or thoughts on an MMA fight while it's all fresh in the mind, I think is decent to read. However, it does then encourage everyone to post their thoughts individually and the thread becomes a mess. If you don't like something, hit report. We'll either act on it or tell you to piss off

We'll either act on it or tell you to piss off Haha, true but the 15 min breaks are usually only during the facebook prelims. The main card's are pretty much non-stop for 3 hours. The live posts don't bother me at all, I don't mind reading them and I'm not gonna report anyone over it. Just saying that myself I can't be bothered posting till the show's over, then there's more to discuss. Plus I'm too much of a lazy cunt to do 2 things at once anyway.

We'll either act on it or tell you to piss off Thats what Twitter is for! For instance, I enjoy your updates on Hull games as they happen, I find those insightful and, honestly, quite an unbiased account of what is going on. However, that doesn't translate to either forums or MMA very well. Imagine a thread full of "Lesnar stuffs a takedown" "Overeem finding range with that right" it would be the pits. It's fine for Twitter, or even a chatroom, but for a forum? Nah. Plus we can't start saying person A can do live discussion but person B can't.
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted December 28, 2011 Paid Members Posted December 28, 2011 I just presumed all live discussion was banned as relates to sport. And wrestling. Like Keith has said, the rule should cover all threads or none at all.
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted December 28, 2011 Paid Members Posted December 28, 2011 Live discussion is banned. I was just giving an opinion. This... If you don't like something, hit report. We'll either act on it or tell you to piss off ...was just a general rule of thumb, nothing else. For the record, I can't recall anyone ever reporting a live discussion in an MMA thread.
Keith Houchen Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 Where do you stand on live discussion about live discussion? "good opinion by rick there, I wish Houchen would fuck off"
