uNL 1 year report card

[EMc]

Folks,

Well, its been a little over a year since the uNL/SSNL splits, so lets get some feedback.

First, Id like to thank all the posters that have made this place a great strat forum, and helped keep it to the high 2p2 standards. There are very few that still post here since the inception, but special thanks to munkey, pokey, ama, thac, kaz, gelford and anyone else that was here from the strat.

Now that we have that out of hte way, I want to hear we you the posters think of the following

a. Traffic- Do you feel as if you hand gets lost too fast, or does it receive appropiate responses.
b. Quality of the advice
c. Quality of the moderation- What policies would you like to see changed or implemented?
d. Other suggestions

Thanks,

uNL mods

a. good traffic the good hands stay up where they should be till discussion is done

b. depends on the poster, I think much of it is pretty bad.

c. good, ama yells at me too much and there tend to be some flame wars occasionally.

good forum. no complaints. one of the nicer forums (i don't get flamed for my bad advice).

The advice is the biggest problem here. You really need to pay attention to a few and ignore the rest.

Many of the threads that don't get major attention are limited to multiple people saying "I do it this way" with no reason, or more importantly when challenged, no ability to break down the hand and explain why they do it a certain way.

A series of stickied discussions of how to dissect a hand in terms of assigning a range and some simple math based on that range would go a long way. Then at least when there's disagreement there could be some expectation of going back to a real hand dissection rather than just waiting for the next newbie to weigh in.

a. way too much traffic - after i respond to a post and go to the front page, there's already like 3-5 new posts

b. some good, some bad

c. don't really see too many threads getting locked - which is fine by me. don't really know how many people you guys are locking out for certain periods of time

[whyzze]

a: b+
b: c
c: A+
d: possibly some sort of move up thread. question/comments about moving up are so common and everywhere. It would be nice to put it all in one place and also for people to post how they are doing it and how well they are doing.

I think the traffics great, the advice is fair, i dont see what could be done about it tho, its basically newbs helping noobs and semi noobs, as is the purpose of the forum

the mods are great ldo (im not getting tarped into a ban)

i was never here before the split so i couldnt talk on the changes

[svidrigailov]

a. Traffic is sometimes overwhelming, but I think it's unavoidable given the number of players at micro stakes.
b. Varies from great to ridiculous. I've found reading SSNL/MSNL and looking for good replies is helpful when trying to understand how to formulate posts.
c. Good given the amount of traffic, irrelevant posts are quickly handled.
d. It's hard to do, but encouraging searching/reading. There sooo much good stuff in the stickies/forums/archives that goes beyond the advice that's possible to give immediately.

[Milky]

a. I think the traffic is okay. Not too much to where I feel like posts don't get enough attention.

b. Depends on the person giving the advice but overall I'd say it's fairly solid.

c. Moderation seems great, I've seen no problems here.

d. No real suggestions, just keep up the good work!
