Wiretap Suggestions and Corrections

[Howard Mass]

Is there any way to stop this? It's nice to block someone who really I mean really bothers you. But is there any chance to block him to not read his BS in Wiretap? I mean I'm 30y/o, mostly calm dude. But reading all this BS from this MF troll makes me wanna punch him in his F-ing face everytime he post something

On the forums, you can put a User on ignore but you cannot block anyone from reading Wiretap.

Misunderstood me. I have him on my ingore list but if I Scroll down from the wiretap I still see his trolling. It doesn't block him from there.

Do you mean the Wiretap Forum/In the comments of the Wiretap?

[Maf]

That's right.

[Howard Mass]

That's right.

I'll pass this on for the next time we do board upgrades and we will see what we can do.

Thanks for letting us know.

[Maf]

Thanks a lot. Have a nice day.

This is up to date.

Does wiretap really have to feed the Sixers hate? It looks like trolling from here, and that's even before the trolls jump in.

[Howard Mass]

In what way is Wiretap doing this?

There's been some negative stories of late but that's just where it has been going with Okafor's issues and the extended losing streak to begin the season. We've had an open mind towards the way they're doing things throughout.

Why do most times there is a link for an article where a player does something or something happens to him, there is an picture of some guy in a suit? For example,"So so player gets pulled over for DUI." The player is African American and the picture shows some white guy in a suit. Sometimes, we want to know the player, not some behind the scenes suit who probably has nothing to do with the situation. Maybe, if the article mentioned how the suit guy is all frustrated by the players faults and needs to make a decision with the article being more about the suit than the player, I would understand. But sometimes, these pictures are absolutely ridiculous and make absolutely no sense.

Thanks for the feedback. We default to the coach or GM of the team the player is on if we don't have a photo available of the actual player.

Would it make more sense to default to a logo of the team?

Years ago, there used to be 3 Wiretaps at the top, and if you went to a baseball, football, or soccer forum you would see the Wiretap for that sport. Is there a reason it went down to 2 with one being random? I would like it if there were 3 Wiretaps again, with the 1st being basketball, 2nd being the sport you're viewing, and a random 3rd? (Or 2 randoms if you're on a basketball forum).

We moved away from that format quite a few years ago when we added the search bar to that area and redesigned the site. We'll consider making a change that incorporates that suggestion when we next make updates to that area.
