Why do we have a chatroom?

Its such a shame, I graduated Uconn the year after we won the 2000 national championship. It was probably my best night on campus, you wouldn't believe half the stories if I told you.... I really hope the Men can turn it around, the women put the men to shame now. Maybe KLS can help out..
 
Twitter killed the chats.

It’s just better for that sort of thing.

As a streamer, the streaming feed is often 30-60 seconds behind live video.

In chatroom people are comment ting on okays before I see them on TV.

Game threads are similar.

So, I avoid them both now. Maybe jump in at halftime.

Other issue I'd I've never like the chat room functionality for mobile devices.

After reading this, I realize that the facts of your argument outweigh the feelings of my memory. I too stream and it has functionally ruined txting with my sister in real time. And I originally shifted from Chat to txting because I had mobile functionality issues and then had a desktop in a room without a TV.

But the games, the fans, the comments, and the immediacy were all better when chat was king. Did I really do it on dialup too?

Ha. I would get thrown off this site in 5 minutes if I did. I think I already have two warnings for foul behavior.

Actually, in retrospect, I think Whaler nailed it.

If you’re watching anything but the live feed on a television, a chat room (and Twitter) is unusable.

If I watch on ESPN’s Apple TV app or even if I watch on an ipad on Optimum’s own app, the feed is too far behind to use a chat room or Twitter.

It’s the Cesspool spelling.

Agreed. I have cable, and even with that, when it was at its peak, it moved quite rapidly (back when we all cared). It was disjointed at times as you couldn't reply to a specific comment.

That was the last name of an ex-girlfriend of mine who twice cheated on me. I kind of like seeing it used in this context.

I've been in and out of the cesspool slammer more times than I can count.
 
I noticed that the game thread for the women last night was shut down and everyone was directed to the chat room. Will we be experiencing the same thing here? There was a post game thread created. Are post game threads going to be allowed or should we use the post game chat room?
