What is going on with the UT game threads?

[Handcruser 2805]

First, they dont work with tapa.

Second, they’re locked until Katie opens them.

Third, they have some “uplifting message” in them that’s supposed to get us all riled up or something.

 

Why can’t we just have a game thread that’s just a game thread?

[Surly Bevo 25153]

Agreed, it's over management that isn't warranted or necessary but Imma likes to workshop things.

[DaggerHorns 3089]

The internet used to have way more freedom…

[Fudge Nuggets 19224]

It’s the opposite of the dumbasses on LSU’s board that lock down their entire site during games. It’s stupid there, it’s stupid here. 

[Mother mopar 3324]

I miss TJ's game threads.

[Handcruser 2805]

This is fucking football related.

What the fuck is going on around here.

[Fudge Nuggets 19224]

We’re not good enough to talk about the game until the game starts I guess.

[Handcruser 2805]

I don’t understand the purpose of locking it until kickoff. I also don’t understand the purpose of a goofy message with yet more solicitation of players not worthy of money. The fact that that goofy message / solicitation was locked and pinned is irritating and laughable. 

Add to that the fact that tapa doesn’t load the latest post….it just takes us back to the first post. Immamac is pinning or sticky-ing the thread or whatever. Like it’s not going to be at the top of the board or nobody will be able to find it if he doesn’t.

I PM’d him about it and…….silence.

I made another alternative game thread last week and the pancho police came around and shut it down.

Why can’t we just have a regular fucking game thread that works for everyone?

[elfenix 34332]

should have the channel in the thread title so i don't have to guess whether we're on fox, espn, ocho, whatever

[EuroHorn 3268]

You know the old saying, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”.  Well…

Because it's 2021 and if you're still using Tapa you're flat out stupid.

dude you're literally using tapa in 2021.

[Mother mopar 3324]

I enjoy using tapa as it houses the apps that I use regularly. Beats switching back and forth on each platform's site which is extremely cumbersome when your managing multiple apps.

I use tapa during game to follow thread. There's a workaround, but it's odd we have to this. You have to pull up the thread in your browser and have it ask you to open in tapatalk and stay in the thread.

But this pinning/locking is annoying and serves no purpose I can think of. The game thead's going to be at the top no matter what. And locking until gametime serves what purpose?

[BurntOrange&White 40010]

Literally surly mobile website >>>> tapa 

[Mother mopar 3324]

It's not...especially when you're on a bunch of apps simultaneously.

Imagine dedicating the Texas football game for multitasking instead of full attention. You gen z’ers are the worst.

That sums up what I think about the very existence of game threads. 

[Handcruser 2805]

Pancho started the game thread. All was going smoothly. Then immamac or bob fucking pinned it again.

There was no problem to solve.

At this point they're obviously doing it to sabotage you. You should really do something about that.....smh

Agreed with all of this.

So I guess everyone has given up and there will be no game thread this week?  Surly might as well mail it in like the team I guess.
