I think the twitter quickchat is fucking stupid

Mr.Bishop · 2011-10-13 23:44:03

Do you? We put it up as an experiment to see if you guys use twitter. I don't think it gets used all that much, but I could be totally wrong. Talk to me.

Adblock is the devil. Adblock kills NS babies.

I like the idea, but the stuff int here is always so stale.

i feel like it is mostly advertising for companies.

stuff like "NEW #purpledildo LINE JUST DROPPED PRAISE JAH. BE SURE TO CHECK IT OUT AT WWW.HRBGVKSFVSNS.COM" #TimDurtschi #swag #derp

plus it's just another thing to load on the page.

I feel like that is most of twitter... marketing managers talking to marketing managers about advertising to the youth.

I dont understand Twitter, but I often overlook it because its so far down off the top of the page. Just put in a news ticker style thing up top between the logo and the search bar?

I occasionally use twitter, but I think the quickchat is fucking stupid.

It isn't quick, nor is it a chat. None of the stuff I have ever really seen in it makes much sense to be in an NS quickchat, just kids hashtagging for it to be there.

i think a facebook-like username chat would make more sense.

Not saying I want one or that we need one, just that it would make more sense.

And really I find the twitter quickchat impossible to read.

Im an avid twitter user, still think its pointless. As a quickchat i would never use it because for followers who werent on the quickchat, their feed would just be blown up with nonsense. I say just axe it entirely and work on a real chat system for the future.

This.

Also, as far as Adblocker goes: TURN IT OFF FOR NS! Almost all the ads I get are skiing related anyway (I have Chris Benchetler and Tim Durtschi on my screen right now) so it they don't bother me. Plus NS needs the ad revenue.

(except for sometimes when the internet is really really slow.)

But almost never.

Yep, over it. COol concept, but bad execution.

We'll schedule it for nuking on the next update. Something better could for sure go there.

We used to have this. It was like a constantly open chat room, sitting (IIRC) where the side ad bar / "vids being watched" window is under the sponsor links that used to be on the right side.

I use twitter a lot. But the quick chat is retarded. I tried to use it a few times but it never worked for me. Plus the way the tweets come in is fucked. One tweet will be from 2 days ago then on from a few hours ago then one from yesterday.

Trash it!
