I actually read and enjoyed the thread this week on the NFC-visiting games. I stopped reading the single large 1 eastern thread because it was too big and moved too fast. Three pages of LOL ELI isn't funny or interesting to me

Honestly I think people who like the chaos can just hop on Twitter and search the game-specific hashtags (visiting team vs home team, three-letter abbreviations) and get the same effect of impossible to follow non-conversations

Now we're pretending people read other people's posts in the large GDTs? I would say about half the questions that get posted get answered at all. And if you do ask a question you have to look carefully for anyone answering you, and yes, soon enough you're five pages behind The large single GDT can only be followed if it's the only thing you're doing. If it's not, if you happen to look at the game on TV or talk to another person, you're over a page behind and you're drat well skipping to the last page, don't lie

Codependent Poster posted:Then you're still following the same amount of posts with the added inconvenience of having two tabs. Actually good news, you'll see more posts because people like me will read and post in the less ridiculous split threads but not in the single awful one

Wilford Cutlery posted:This. I'd like to be able to keep up with my thread, not find myself like 5 pages behind when I take a piss run, and still be able to watch and follow the game too. The solution when you're five pages behind is to not read any posts you missed and just type holky gently caress into the reply box to be ready for the next holky gently caress moment

Josh Lyman posted:I've said it before and I'll say it again. If you're trying to read every post in a GDT, you're Welp I guess we knew this was part of the philosophy with one big thread but this is kind of why they are awful. Why would we have a thread where people post without reading? What kind of thread does that produce

Sour Diesel posted:what is the full gdt experience - open thread - post thought on game - watch next 2 plays - return to thread list - see 120 new replies in thread - go get another beer - text mom instead of posting in gdt

ROSS MY SALAD posted:so why text instead of call We call at halftime. Typically our feeds are very off in terms of time and that can be frustrating, as she'll react to a play about 10 seconds before I see it, then I demand to know what happened, and it's less fun for both of us

kidcoelacanth posted:I notice that everyone in favor of the split threads seem to want some big conversation to happen in them, but it sure looks to me like the posting is the same as it's always been. Now it's just harder to read everything. I like the split threads because the one i care about moves slow enough that i can read every post and respond to them. you know, a conversation i know i'm in the minority in expecting a conversation on a forum, but i can yell dumb poo poo into empty space irl if i want to

i'm glad we have this thread so the awful circular debate is contained. except when people started whining in the GDTs today but whatever if we go back to a single thread that's fine, i've enjoyed talking to browns posters and opposing posters but i won't read a single thread, it's not worth it to try to pick out relevant posts. i'll just talk to people in the other threads

It's a lovely moderating situation but I don't think it's life or death. The purpose of the forum is sharing news and jokes and stuff and it does great for that

I don't think a new poll will do much, I mean even if one or the other wins by a few votes it's still obvious there is split opinion

I think a few other people were watching browns-jags, not sure, didn't really connect with them in the thread Loved seeing fifty posts about a field goal hitting an upright, though. Thats that good poo poo

TubeStank posted:Wanna show where? I looked through the thread and that was it. There was definitely a section of quite a few posts of DONK and the law and order smiley, but if you think i'm paging through a GDT to find it you're crazy And I am kind of disappointed that the idea is: This forum is better for discussion than reddit, except on game day, then better discussion can actually be had at reddit or SB Nation. I mean I always thought we were trying to avoid becoming that poo poo, but maybe we're trying to avoid becoming as thoughtful and high-content as loving SB Nation
