Bigsoccer Bot needs to be eliminated

[ElMuneco]

I don't know about everyone else here, but I think this Bigsoccer Bot needs to go. I just got home from work and found all of these new postings in the Argie forum. How freaking irritating.

[bsas]

Well, I don't mind it posting articles about futbol, but that's it....

[Leon12]

Bigsoccer bot does seem to have had a rather busy evening posting messages on here. :p

[in da soup]

it's annoying.

[Leon12]

And very boring. :mad:

[JuveFE]

can't the mod delete some of these threads?? there are way to many pointless threads.

[efernandez9]

I will clean it in one NY minute!

lets give it a try for couple of days..... If you guys a better link to fresher news on RSS
please post here

sooooooooooo is he actually a bot or just some pimple faced kid with a lot of free time on his young adult hands?? I don't mind the news so much... BigSoccer is the only place I (have time to) come for info on my favorite teams so it actually helps me.

that is the idea!

to prevent us from clicking all over the net to find fresh news...

the Bot spit a bit of horse racing and hockey, not to mention tennis news, I am searching for futbol only site BASED in buenos aires or close.

Looks as if the Bot has been dealt with, well done to the moderator. :D

[Leon12]

Somone needs to put a stop to this computer nerd, over to you Moderator. :confused:

It makes no sense.

We come to a message board to discuss ... to express opinion and debate, not to learn about news. We already read not 1 but at least a dozen footie sources daily. And come here with an opinion to lay to the community not the news only.

Bigsoccer Bot needs his own sub-forum, one for him to bombard with news ... not to add that some of his threads need an (R) ... if not many will avoid the forum altogether. :rolleyes:

PS: Why the Argentina forum?

Yes, I agree. We can keep this forum for only "humans" and let the Bot post sometimes interesting messages from various sources in a specific subforum...

i second that motion

can not work like that.....I wanted futbol only.....but
what the bot does at 11pm or 8am is an update to bigsoccer of the news that will go on lanacion.com.ar (or news become available to them)
No way to filter horses from river news or tennis results. The reason to have that in there is that the forum was way too slow in the las 40 days, we had hope that some news will bring up a discussion or two about transfers and torneo de verano or copa libertadores.

I will post a poll tomorrow for you guys to decide on the news Bot.
Other option: please post here another site link, with futbol ONLY news and RSS technology.

It's just making this forum unusable. Too many off-topic news, plus also posted 2-3 times...

[Teso Dos Bichos]

BUMP

Having seen this on other BS boards, the options are clear and require no debate. Either ditch the bot or get it a sub-forum.

[efernandez9]

the news bot is been dealt with right now

sorry about the glitch

lanacion.com.ar will no longer provide news dump to the forum.

If any one has a link to a futbol only site, please post it here

[dark knight]

I mass binned them but it's still enabled so it will need to wait for Huss to disable or set up a subforum where all these can go.

feel free to post now and discuss your favorite topic

Lanacion.com.ar is out as our source of news from argentina, the release every hour the same-

thanks for you for being patient!
