Why does the Wrestlezone main site suck so bad?

[Afro-Ameri-Spawn]

Oh god, where do I start on this topic? I feel like a kid in a candy store.

1. Stop posting the same repeated news in three and four different posts. I mean how fucking hard is it for the average ****** to see that something has already been reported either earlier in the day or the day before and say "maybe I shouldn't post this".

2. All the fucking pop ups. I swear. I have to use a special super browser just to come to the main site because of all of the popups. I have referred other people to the site only for them to get pissed from the spyware and other crap that gets snuck into their computer if their pop up blocker isn't strong enough to take it out. I mean how much damned add revenue can you possibly need guys.

3. The look. The Wrestlezone look hasn't changed in so long that its starting to match the writing staff. It's looking old and boring. Spruce the place up a bit. Revamp a little. I mean these guys just raked in a lil money and they can't dress it up a bit? Geez.

4. The staff are hacks. Here's a riddle. Name one member of the main board staff who hasn't had their ass chewed by a wrestler for not having their facts in order. Go ahead. Take your time. I will wait. I swear, these guys either need to hire a fact checker or get an intern or something because they stink. When they aren't boring, they are incompetent. When they aren't incompetent, they are boring. It's a no win/brain situation.

I should probably stop here, as I want to be gentle and not get stuck on a rant. But hey, that's just my two cents.

i didn't advertise i just simply told him that there was another website that had no pop ups and gave an example

Again, a terrible, terrible mistake, sir. What kind of board has this become? The owner of the board should know better. I think promoting you to admin is the only way to stop this completely error-riddled behaviour from our mods/admins.

While you're at it, you can even re-write the rules! Clearly, they're much too ambiguous.

1. I am working on correcting that - that's all I can say.

2. The pop-ups were taken down a long time ago. If you get pop-ups on WrestleZone.com, then you have some crazy shit going on with your computer. Go check out another wrestling site (save a very select few) and then come back to WZ.com and be happy that we "don't" have pop-ups anymore.

3. I just posted a new design. We are planning on "sprucing" it up and I just mentioned that. You might ought to do a little research and get "your" facts straight before making comments (see below).

4. I don't know what writing staff you're referring to and I could count numerous writers that haven't been chewed out by wrestlers. Hell, four of our writing staff "are" wrestlers. We are still making transitions and we have to take one step at a time, but we will work on this as well.

I honestly had no problem with your post and want you to know that I wasn't trying to come off as harsh. However, three out of the four things you just said were inaccurate and I felt they needed to be corrected.

I agree with all your points except this one, I haven't got one pop-up on WZ since I've been here ( Bout 8 months). However, other wrestling sites annoy the fuck outta me.

Use Firefox, with the Ad-Block add-on.

If you are still getting pop-ups, it's your own computer, not their site.


That, and they say that their site doesn't have adds.


But, seriously, use Firefox with Ad-Block. You'll never have to worry about another ad again.

Chris,

Tell Clark and the other guys that running spell/grammar-check is a good thing. Some of their posts are so grammatically awful, and there have definitely been more than a few spelling errors. It helps make them look at least a little more credible.

Also, attributing wherever they got their news from (PWInsider, F4W, etc...) goes a long way in making them credible as well.

Good. Progress is good.

Well not TOO long ago. i actually lost one of my comps a long time ago due to all of the crap that would get installed when I visited this site. I upgraded to another stronger web browser and haven't had any problems. But yeah, the loss does make it linger in the back of my mind quite a bit. Sorry for that, but good you guys changed that

3. I just posted a new design. We are planning on "sprucing" it up and I just mentioned that. You might ought to do a little research and get "your" facts straight before making comments (see below).

Yeah, but how long was the old design up dude. I mean it starts to blend in so much that you barely even notice subtle changes. You get like that old 50 yard stare where all you see if your target instead of what's around it. But change is always good.

4. I don't know what writing staff you're referring to and I could count numerous writers that haven't been chewed out by wrestlers. Hell, four of our writing staff "are" wrestlers. We are still making transitions and we have to take one step at a time, but we will work on this as well.

I have been on WZ for ten years now. Let's not play coy. May not be happening lately, but the DDP incident is still fresh in my mind. I was specifically referering to the time before you guys signed wrestlers. Which is kewl btw.

Perhaps I rant harshly, and I apologize for that, but it's rare that someone asks you something that you have been wanting to say for a long long time. But it's a great steps and shines very well that you actually took the time to reply. I respect that alot.

Actually I started using Netscape over a year ago and it solved it. So I didn't even notice that they were no longer there.
