Chisoxfn Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I'm going to be making a bit of an expirement. I know there are a lot of people that enjoy the catch all and I also know from comments made over the past year or so that there are a lot of people that don't enjoy it so up until the end of the regular season I'm going to close the catch all and experiment to see what the majority prefer (catch all vs no catch all). Also, shortly we will be announcing some changes made to the mod team as we work on infusing some new moderators onto the site. The move should help get some fresh blood into the mod ranks and more importantly enable some of the mods who have had changes to there personal life which prevent them from being as active.

My love for you continues to grow although I really question your baseball knowledge when speaking of Orlando Cabrerra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 QUOTE (shipps @ Aug 26, 2008 -> 01:06 PM) I shall now use this thread as my Catch-all. That's ironic, because most use Jason as their catch-alls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I never looked at the catch-all thread. Too long and I always read threads based on something catchy in the thread title, that obviously is missed with the Catch-all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I just always skipped the catch all thread, sometimes before I forgot, other times because it was a completely random thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather just skip over random threads in PHT that don't apply to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sox It To Em Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I like this. The Catch-all threads never did much for me. They seemed to kind of defeat the purpose of a message board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox_Sonix Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Agreed. I rarely ventured into the PHT catch-all so personally I like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I think we could do without the Win and Loss threads after every game. Just use the game threads. JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just use the game threads. JMO Yeah, I feel like after the game ends a mod should unpin the game thread and edit the title with a W in it or an L.

Kyyle23 Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 It doesnt matter what you do. No matter what, someone is gonna complain that the thread is too long and they didnt want to go through it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I dont understand the problem with any catchall, or long threads. if you dont want to go through all of it, dont. It doesnt detract from any other posting, people still post all relevant sox "talk" and stories in pale hose when the catch all is there. The catch all is like a constant conversation.

Jake Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Now posters just have to be willing to post those non-major thoughts as threads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
