107 pages bagging telstra and their pile of $h!t website
anyone stupid enough to think that they're paying any attention.
if so, i want to reiterate something to telstra...
your service is crap, your website is the worst website in australia... no, the worst website in the world.
it takes ages to load, the features on it are terrible, and even dream team has been surpassed by supercoach as a game.
give up, you're a spent force. bring on optus and elders as the dominant force in australian communications.
i assumed this was all because of a virus....Do them a favour.
I have no idea how it's done, but could someone please download a virus to their website and disable it please.
This is strangely true except for content. They have many ways of delivering the site to users; video, flash, stats and so on, but the site is not reliable. Point blank. The design is ok, not my favorite, and it does seem sloppy, but at the end of the day it is fine. The fact that it takes ages to load, is slow to respond to any action and just plain goes offline is complete crap for something that cost $60 million (obviously not the site but the rights to AFL online). As a mac user i actually like all the flash, as it is one of the few points that actually always work for me. But the lack of decent in any order is just plain crazy. I do not think you should ever have to hit a back button to start over from the home page once you have read a story, who is linking this sh*t and why are they doing such a piss poor job of it?
Does looks strange. Never noticed it though.
I echo your sentiments Paul, well said, and straight to the point.
I want to raise another issue with the notorious scoreworm. While they have improved it, after we all bagged it, there is still room for improvement, and today's Brisbane v Carlton match provides such an example.
OK, so Brisbane won by 117 points, but there is no need for the bottom half of the graph to also extend to 120 points. Carlton were barely ever in front. Extrapolating the graph in both directions reduces the usefulness of the graph. Can you imagine a scoreworm of Fitzroy's 190 win over Melbourne in 1979? It would go from +200 to -200!
So what I'm saying is that the scoreworm should be sized to accommodate just the largest lead each team has. For today's game, I'd suggest +125 to -25. For most games, there's no problem with the 0-axis being in the middle, but for 100 point blowouts, I think some flexibility could be shown.
Compared to last year, they had botched the scoreworm until people such as I arked up and complained, only after their subsequent changes was the scoreworm any good. Before, you could get a game where the greatest margin was 12 points, yet the Y-axis was from =100 to -100.
Wow, that must be another new change by the Einstein developers
. After Round 14, there were 3 teams that had a percentage within 0.9 of each other. Anyone with half a clue would construct a percentage column not only with 1 decimal place, but 2. To round to the nearest whole number is unmitigated stupidity.! These people wouldn't see a problem with a red tap to signify cold water, or red at a crossing to signigy walk. And I see they changed from using team monikers (Cats, Hawks, etc) to the proper team names. I guess it would be too much to expect them to get the simple things right the first time.
