UnderGround Forum >> Dont post the results in the title

Saltyballs -

crossfire - And apparently you cant have a discussion without some downvotes , LOL

And no one gives a good explanation , just shows you how fucking stupid your arguments are.

You probably got voted down for calling people stupid and mouth breathers. You're a good poster, I'll vote you up tomorrow bro.

For the record, this is not an MMA news site. If this is supposed to be a news site, you're doing it wrong.

Apparently it's on par with ESPN - just ask Jason :\

Jason -

Not only is this AN MMA NEW SITE, it is a United States based MMA NEWS SITE. We indeed of course are growing internationally and hope to continue to do so, but 95% of our audience is US based.

Could you imagine ESPN.com waiting to announce the winner of the superbowl until all countries had a chance to watch it?

You also have to remember, there is a large portion of the news audience that DOES want the results right away from here or other news sources, rather than wait to watch it on the DVR later. Many times when I just can't watch the fights for someone reason or other, I still want to know the results, rather than wait to watch them later on DVR.

Got a little carried away there , sorry if i offended anyone. Its just frustrating when even the mods are trolling

how are the mods trolling?

honest question. Are there examples of this out there? is there another big mma website you can go to after a fight night and not see the results of what happened on thier forums or news?

TDogg926 - Seriously, if you don't want to know results, stay off the forums until you watch it. It's common sense. Can't complain about people posting results of an mma fight on an mma forum.

NotImpressedByYourScreenName - ^^^^I can't quite believe a mod said these 3 things in the same post:
- Non US users make up 5% of mma.tv user base
- mma.tv would like to cater for these users
- These users should stay the fuck away from mma.tv for 2 out of 7 days of the week, or nearly 30% of the time

Jason, you understand that some of these overseas users are paid members right? Not to mention that I'm confident that some of your advertisers specifically wish to target these users so they may not be thrilled with you telling them to stay away for nearly one third of the week just so you can put obvious spoilers in your headline.

Maybe I'm wrong but I highly doubt that anyone who has a financial interest in this site / organization would make the post that you did...

The Super Bowl is an American sport. MMA / the UFC is a global sport. Therin lies the difference. Ask Dana if you don't believe me. So stop making it sound like its the rest of the worlds privelidge to watch this great sport of yours when the UFCs expansion plans going forward revolve largely around the rest of the world, ie not the US.

Following your logic, why doesn't Dana just tweet the results straight after the show? It's already been aired in the US and some people would find the info genuinely useful so why not right? Most of his twitter followers would be based in the US too. But he doesn't because he gets it.

As for you saying that a simple mouse-click is too difficult for you to get see results that really is entirely a matter for you and your concentration span...it's not like we're dealing with commodity prices on the stock exchange here - I think you can wait 5 seconds while the page loads after you click the headline.

Not about the forums.

Right again. When you open the app it takes you straight to the news section where the title is included the result.

I guess you don't follow the UFC on facebook. They'll post the results not long after the fight happens, including title fights. That's something to legitimately bitch about. Having an MMA match spoiled on an MMA site is not. 2 completely different animals. You're too busy trying to belittle people on a message board to pay any attention though.

how are the mods trolling?

By basically asking us non american not to come here.

Dude, get fucking real. You sound like a goddamn bitch.

Krookedkemp -  You just ruined it for people who couldnt watch it live, thanks underground

OP is a newb that never had to avoid the UG for weeks at a time, waiting to see the US premiere of a Pride show.

Krookedkemp -

Unwariestpickle - Yeah that's crazy. I mean why the fuck would a site about MMA talk about MMA?

I wouldn't personally put the results in the title but there are thousands of people who use this site. If you were that concerned about it MAYBE you should watch the fights before going on a site where people talk about the results?

Get another box of tampons and tissues and go cry about it somewhere else.

First off. Fuck man, you are a miserable cunt, someone must of done some real emotional damage to you. Second off, i use the mobile app. And its a force of habit to check this like clock work. Also the show doesnt air at the same time every where stupid ass. Why dont you take your comments to a shrink and get some help you gorp.

I don't know why it's so hard for people to avoid the UG if their are fights on they are missing.  Last night I wanted to watch the Oilers game when TuF was on first, so I watched the game, then caught a replay...Wow, I wasn't on the UG for a whole 5 hours....I don't know how I did it!

I follow them only to get previews, bit rarely get updates from them on my newsfeed, and I have never seen fight results. It's probably because I only visit their page to see the prelims. My newsfeed is full of posts by people I actually talk to on there.

They do post them. Bellator does too. Strikeforce used to do it as well. Stop bullshittin.

It's not hard, but in my case (which I have already stated is my fault) I clicked the app this morning when I got up forgetting that TUF aired last night, and bam the first news title I see is about Hart def. Casey. I went "Damnit, I forgot."

What is so hard about having a title that doesn't have the result in the title? Would more people be bothered by that? If that is the case, I'm not a selfish guy. I can deal with it if the masses must have the results of a fight in the title of an article about the results of a fight.

Reading comprehension ? If you guys who just shits on the idea actually read what we're discussing there would be no discussion.

And there is still not one good reason to include the result in the title , NOT ONE !

RileyPust - I didn't read this thread but, I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that the majourity of people told you that logic dictates you stay away from MMA news sites if you're worried about spoilers. That was a long sentence.

Anyway, if I'm correct and that's what people are saying to you... I'll tell you why. It's because they're smarter than you. I didn't watch it live, and I avoided having it spoiled. It wasn't difficult. I wish I could say "if I can do it, so could you" but let's be realistic; you probably can't.
