How often do you use the "Feeds" page?

[SayWhat]

Using the old forum way until it goes away. Eyes don't like change as there's familiarity with what you know.

I only click on it because I accidentally read it as Forms. Then, I grow frustrated, punch myself in the ****, and sign off for the day.

This.

Tell us what you think.

I didn't vote as my answer wasn't listed as an option: "There's a 'Feeds' page?"

 

[Mnhurricane]

Only time I have clicked on feeds is when I meant to click on forums

 

[clg003]

I think you should just make every clickable object on the site forward to the feeds page.

I hadn't, but tried it based on this thread. I only look at Eye in the Sky and Football Recruiting when on this site. Feeds are a clean way to consolidate both of those forums. It was a little unclear how to Save my Feed settings, but eventually scrolled down and saw the Save button in the filter. A few bits of immediate feedback/questions:

• When using Feeds does it automatically filter out updates to Sticky threads?
  
  
• The subnav should preserve the filter settings. When I click "Hot" from "Threads" it should preserve my custom filter of Eye in the Sky + Football Recruiting
  
  
• In the Thread view it would be good to have a cleaner aesthetic to distinguish between threads in particular Forums. It currently looks the same as the timestamp
  
  
• I've seen a confusing alert telling me "my filters are filtering out more recent content. click to refresh". When clicking it removes my two forum filter and see stuff from Off-Topic. I don't think that should alert as prominently as I know I'm viewing a filtered view and am ok with ignoring content that doesn't meet my requirements

Rather have a depth chart + eligibility chart…

The feed is just a tab 90% of the people probably aren’t using, which makes it a waste. But I’m sure the people who do use it really prefer it. You could bring the roster info tab back in its place and just put a “my feed” section for the couple people that use it as a forum drop down option. I just think the football team and recruiting discussions should be separated because they focus the responses in a specified direction.

Biggest waste is the trending tab though. Why isn’t that apart of feeds?

 

[nystateofmind]

I just don’t really see the purpose of it.

 

[RangerGranger]

Yeah, I haven't used it once.

Great idea, but I think it's ahead of it's time.

@Andrew

Although the feature is not getting much love, I gotta respect your ability to implement and then gather community approval.

This will only make the site better; through trial and error.

PS.. I really don't think you're a ****tater. You the man.

Youse mfers are ********.

I think it's a good addition. Allows you to also see those threads that got moved to the off-topic page. We barely use the off-topic page, so the feeds menu helps.

 

[AtlAtty]

This has unintentionally become one of the funniest threads ever at CIS.

Tell us what you think.

Where is the option "There is a feed page?"

 

[poncho0091]

@Andrew Where did the feeds go?

@Andrew Where did the feeds go?

Based on the poll results, I'd say the trash.

 

[poncho0091]

Based on the poll results, I'd say the trash.

sad, because it was honestly the best thing I've found for navigating the boards. Just a lack of people willing to educate themselves to use it.

 

[Empirical Cane]

When I'm hungry.

 

[24/7canes]

Sorry to sound really dumb but what are the feeds pages. I just click on the forums.

 

[404Usernamenotfound]

Let me address some matters right now. At no point, at no point have I ever used the feeds, let alone encounter the feeds. Believe me, if I encountered the feeds I would high tail it back to the forums like Carl Lewis

Let me paint you a picture. Imagine that whatever boards you like to read could combine into one board and you could set and save a preference for how you want those threads sorted.

In my case, I had the football and recruiting boards in one and sorted by newest first post. Now I have to go to eye on the sky, then sort manually and look. Then go to the recruiting board, sort manually and look.
