META: Subhead change? Board search?
When did the subhead change? Wayback Machine has it as "Do not be decieved" at least through 11/1, but by 12/1 "it's Michigan, and it's beautiful here, and everything sucks". OSU game? Maybe in my grief/anger/apathy/whatever, I missed discussion of this? The new quote is apparently form BoJack Horseman: The Old Sugarman Place [S04E02] (and, yes, I'm old, I had to goolge BoJack Horseman to find out what the hell it was--a web comedy series, for others as old and out of touch as me).
Also, is it just me or does the Google Site Search not work...? I was trying to google the Board about the subhead... Is there any way other than just browsing to search for old threads?

the "*Won a free IPOD*" pop up ad needs to be fixed. It is irresponsible not to.
There was a post about it a week ago. I hadnt experienced it myself then but I have now and can no longer visit the site on my phone.

Perhaps it was more recent and had to do with the cold and snowy weather ?

You're really going to blame a website for you being too foolish to protect your own data? For you being foolish enough to follow some goofy link and give it your data?
Stop being an asshat.

You don't have to be familiar with technology to realize that you shouldn't be giving away the details to your checking account. Seriously, stoopid people are stoopid, and that can't be fixed. Jebus, take some responsibility...

Stop being an asshat. There's nothing wrong with objecting to phishing attempts.
Unless you are soe kind of Russian bot that wants to make phishing okay because it only effects "stoopid people."

I started a thread on this last week cause I didnt know if it was just me or not and clearly there is a problem here. I've told both Brian & Seth about it but not sure where things stand in regards to a fix.
Candidly I cant visit the site anymore on my phone. When I do I get the damn "your phone is dangerously infected with the 4 virus which you probably got from visiting adult websites. If you want your phone to still work you need to download our ap and clean your phone."
Two major problems with that. One, I dont visit adult websites and two, not sure the wifey would believe that if she was looking at my phone when that damn pop-up appears. So I dont visit MgoBlog on my pnone anymore - just on my desktop and just here at work.

This is a much simpler, less costly, and less invasive solution.

website change-over can't come soon enough. Just looking at this site now, it has gone from current to dated to kind-of-cool-retro, to just bad, and now it is pushing creepy. It is far superior in content to really any other sports blog I have ever read, but it looks like Atari when other sites with far fewer readers and visitors look like PS4. Not complaining, I still love the site, but if I were new to it right now and looked at it for a few minutes I would probably not return either because the format of the site is simply not intuitive per current standards or out of fear of harm to my device.
December 18th, 2017 at 11:24 AM ^
Isn't Seth's job as the business manager of this site to take care of items like this?
Brian is my favorite read on anything sports related, but the management of this site is terrible. It's frustrating as I, as well as many others on here want bigger and better things for the talented writer Brian and his staff.
The lack of response on issues brought up is mind boggling.

Are you talking about the ads that come on the sidebars? Or are they popping up front and center on your page? Becuase if tis the sidebar, I don't even know how you're seeing them! I pay no attention to those and have no clue what they're saying most of the time. There is the occasional picture of an attractive young lady in a short dress that catches my attention, but who cares?
December 18th, 2017 at 8:21 AM ^
Just in case anyone was wondering.

I use the app on my cell phone, and have never seen a popup ad on it. I haven't looked at the actual web page on the phone, though, only from a desktop/laptop. I use Safari or Chrome, sometimes IE, but still have never seen a popup on those. Now that I've mentioned it, though, Murphy's Law will surely kick in...
If there are popups, yeah, I'll agree that those would be a serious PITA and should be removed.
December 18th, 2017 at 9:58 AM ^
and I've never gotten a pop-up "you've got virus" ad. It's only happened on my laptop, and hasn't been frequent anyhow.

Beauty, sort of like truth, is in the eye of the beholder.
On the whole, I'll take Arizona.

Yes, and it is such a wonderful time of year to be here...
December 18th, 2017 at 10:09 AM ^
Without a doubt. Arizona is still largely undiscovered.

Possibly not, but then again, it does put people in the correct mindset when they read discussion on at least a few subjects around here, so if there is anything positive to be read into that, it is that it is blunt honesty of a certain variety.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:03 AM ^
I did wonder if it was an oblique criticism of some of the commentary on the board. If so, I'd have to admit it's not inappropriate....
