We'd like your feedback on The Greenhouse 2015

Post by greeneyed »

We'd like your feedback on The Greenhouse. Not just thegh.com.au, but also The Greenhouse's social media outlets on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Take the survey and help us make The Greenhouse better - and keep it the No. 1 Canberra Raiders supporters site:

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/GHFeedback2015

Or post your suggestions in this thread. What would you like to see change? What would you like to see The Greenhouse do differently? Are there features you particularly like? Are there features you could do without?

Possibly the best free range comment so far is:
I would like to see The Greenhouse celebrate Hbomb more. He just seems to be a complete legend.

Here's some more free range comments:
The thing I like most about The GH is that Lucy was banned.
Hooter and similar articles. GE does a good job monitoring the negativity - far too much of it. Links to news articles - particularly for those interstate. Game day updates and team threads are superb.
I love the Instagram account best but I also enjoy updates on Twitter and Facebook. I like how you don't see the same content on different social media platforms. I also love that I never see offensive material from The GH unlike other fan pages. It's a very inclusive community space for Raiders fans and I like that they never bag out the team even when they've had a terrible game.
Moderation of the forum is top notch.
They need to ban more people. Here is a short list of suggestions. AustinSezer, Nickman, Dr Zaius, Manbush, GE...
Well, on the last comment. you don't need to worry about the first suggested banning!

Here's some more free range comment. We'd like you to add yours in the survey!
It looks a lot better and is run a lot better than all other rugby league forums. It's actually quite humorous with quality banter amongst the stable posters.
All my Raiders news in one spot. Sharing the joy and pain of my team with other Raiders tragics.
I love The Greenhouse on Facebook because the interaction is much easier, instant and not complicated like the website.
I enjoy the Twitter interaction with followers. Helps reach out to other Raiders fans and create a Twitter community.
Stop the stupid in jokes that drag on way too long.
If The Greenhouse could ensure that the Raiders win a premiership soon, I believe that'd improve the overall GH experience. Thanks in advance.
Ban the nuffies that have no idea about the game and constantly bag Raiders players.
Ask the players section would be cool. More info on post-match functions would be great too - many interstate fans travel down to home games a couple of times a year and are keen to get involved with GH members and the players.
Some sort of way to identify serious discussion, like a serious tag, which would be more strictly modded. Trolls and GH in jokes derail a lot of threads.
The actual website I find difficult to navigate and I don't use it much at all.
Less in talk between regulars, more staying on topic.
Here's some we can respond to right away...
A way to automatically log in from my iPhone not using Tapatalk. This is a big reason for me not posting more often. If I was able to come back to the site (which I do daily) and log in with one push of a button on my iPad or iPhone I would definitely be more active of the forum.
Tapatalk is our main mobile device, and they have recently significantly improved it. It's the best thing for iPhone. The desktop version of the site also works well on iPad. We have experimented with another mobile device, The Greenhouse App, there is a thread on the Greenhouse Issues board on how to access it: http://thegh.com.au/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=28058 But I'm afraid it's less than successful, as it is poorly used.
A way to track who someone is when they change their name.
There is already... It is set out in the name change thread on the Greenhouse Issues board: http://thegh.com.au/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3227
Fix the login issues (remembering you logged in) and make the forum mobile friendly.

:lol:

To be honest, although we've all had our moments, I have to agree it's a very well moderated site. It never gets too out of control and most innocent jibes are taken in good humour.

You'll definitely recognise my responses if I do the survey GE!

Also claiming there is stable posters on this site is just a massive, massive lie.

If you want a free comment now I think the fb page needs a purging of members

Some more feedback... If you haven't taken the survey yet, do it now. We need your help to deliver the best Raiders supporters site we can. Things people like most about The Greenhouse:
I like the fact that The Greenhouse gives fans from all walks of life, of different ages and in different locations the opportunity to discuss one of the things they love.
It breaks most Raiders news first and there are plenty of good discussions.
The humour, team discussion and intelligence of regular posters.
I like to give my opinion.
Being kept up to date with Raiders news from people as passionate as myself.
Just how passionate the guys are about Raiders.
I like the inside scoops and knowing things before everyone else.
No. 1 spot to get Raiders news

Some interesting comments...
The fact every headline in every forum is a specific size and always bottle green, having a red headline in the current affairs forum would compromise the integrity of the site.
Twitter account should get involved in progressive social issues. Put a cap on The Nickman's posts per day. Get TR to quit stalling on the Boogs Awards. #WorstAdminEver Have a sobriety quiz when users log in, although this might cut post numbers by 57%.

Some more feedback:
Too many trolls. Please limit the few people who tempt me to limit my involvement in the forum.
I'm pretty happy with the site overall. The discussion is good.
On the whole the moderation of the forum is excellent, however I think it's important that the moderators continue to refrain from entering into any discussion that borders personal abuse. I also think that it's vitally important that any content that could even remotely be regarded as sexist or offensive to females be censored. I know there are a lot more female Raiders fans out there and it would be good to encourage them on board.
I just love the place in general. Almost all of my league related news is from your links.
It's all about the Raiders, the news, the updates. It feeds my insatiable Raiders hunger. I like the posts of certain members too.
Anything I need to know is right here, including what Nickman is up to.
It'd be great if you all took the survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/GHFeedback2015

Here's some more feedback...
I think the moderators should be more proactive in discouraging disrespectful comments made about certain Raiders players (e.g. Josh McCrone). Thoughtful criticism of performances is fine, but when there is constant hyperbole and ridiculing of a particular player, it makes me reluctant to visit The Greenhouse and makes me feel ashamed at times to call myself a Raiders supporter. It also undermines what should be a close relationship between the club and its supporters.
Continue weeding out the trolls. It makes it a happier place.
I waste far too much time on the site arguing with Pigman.
The banter. It's a great place to get info but the lols are by far the best thing.
I love the fact that the "greeneyed" dedicates so much time and energy into promoting the club through various social media platforms. It is an extraordinary level of commitment that deserves recognition from the club.
I really didn't pay for that one... Honestly!
Great discussions about the Raiders. All the Raiders info in one place. The moderation team do a great job with the site.
Banter.

I tend to agree about some of the criticism. It's not going to stop and it's hard to moderate, but some of the stuff about Campo and McCrone got a bit out of control for a while.

I agree. To a lesser extent Croker and Fensom, but they attract criticism from a small albeit vocal minority
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Here's some more feedback:
I'd like to see the football forums discuss the football, not other rubbish.
Some of the posters need to stop de-railing every thread with their repetitive personal agendas.
I like how The Greenhouse is everywhere, on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, as well as the site. I'd just like to thank everyone who runs the site and updates it.
It's great reading about the team from people who share the same passion for the club as me. It's also good (most of the time) reading the banter and speculation about who knows what about who. The game day thread is always a fun read after a win to see the rollercoaster of emotions that only we Raiders fans seem to suffer :)
Up to date news from other raiders tragics like myself.
