hi ed....

[mrrobbo15]

you say in the thread below about the new SAB, what im asking is, why as only the sports section changed ? thanks.....

[rugeleyboy]

ED.............. you also state that you have replied on numorous threads regarding the new SAB? i can only find 1 response and that didnt really say anything at all?

i was gonna start my own thread robbo but when i got back from page 10 you had started this one!

[allotment10]

oh, i found 2 rugeleyboy, (see below on boxingbig's thread).

[cascarelli]

mrrobbo15, please don't encourage them to screw up this part of AB too!

[mrrobbo15]

im sorry...... hope they dont, but if it happens, just dont use it....thats what ive done to the sports section.

my fear is, the sports section is being used as a trial, i cant really see any other reason why it was changed.

it used to be a fun place........

[AB Editor]

Afternoon,

There are no plans to change any other part of the site so it's not a trial no.

It's unfortunate some users dont like the newly styled SAB, is there anything in there you can see that still needs changing?

We've put in place most of the suggestions that were well suggested however bringing back the former Sports section I should imagine isn't going to happen and the new SAB is here to stay.

But if you do have any suggestions please contact me on the usual ad

[mrrobbo15]

sorry ed. but you havent said why it was changed.......why not history for example ?

thanks

[AB Editor]

Ok Mrrobbo15,

In all honesty I came in at the end of the project and so wasn't on the AB Scene when SAB was first thought up and developed.

Obviously I cant speak on behalf of the previous Editor but I should imagine given the popularity of the Sports section the old AB Ed wanted to give something back to the users.

Give the sports fans a section that was nicer on the eye with good functionality and a chat section.

All I know is there has been a great deal of time and effort put into redesigning and implementing SAB and as I said its unfortunate some users aren't that keen.

[mrrobbo15]

ok..fair enough.........thanks ed

sorry to b a pain.

[AB Editor]

No no at all.

Sorry I've got no more information than that and cant give you anymore information on the ins and outs of it all.

Anyway have a good weekend Mrrobbo15 & Co

[Craig007]

If you want to "give something back to the users" then GIVE US BACK OUR OLD SPORT SECTION!!!!

[DJerba]

Sorry Craig but are you thick?! If you read the Eds post it says IT WAS THE OLD EDS DECISION AND IT WOULD APPEAR HE/SHE DIDN'T HAVE MUCH OF A SAY IN IT!!!
plus dont use caps its against the Site Rules.

You never know you might grow up one day

[Craig007]

I think you will find that it's spelt FICK DJerba, AND SORRY FOR USING CAPITALS AS WELL, I HOPE IT DID NOT OFFEND YOU TOO MUCH.
