Important Announcement Concerning "The Stream" Social Group & WrestleMania XXVI
 
If a mod could sticky this, it would be greatly appreciated.

Due to the high influx of people who will be wanting to join the social group for WrestleMania and because I don't feel like trying to accept every slapdick who joins in the middle of the show, I am going to quit accepting new members after 4pm CST on the day of the show.

In order to be accepted into the group, you must meet the following criteria:

  • 500+ posts
  • Been an active member of TPWW for 6 months.
  • Not a troll

Droford 03-19-2010 04:56 PM

You know, this is a waste of time because streams will def probably be shot down at a faster rate for WM..I cant see there being any good ones that last long enough to bother with.

James Steele 03-19-2010 04:57 PM

I know. I am watching it with some friends, so I could care less about the streams this year.

Last year was really fun hunting down streams every 5 minutes.

From TPWW News
 
Some TPWW Analysts are predicting record-setting levels of posts in the "100,000 Replies: Wrestling Forum Edition" thread as Junior Members, or "noob" posters, scramble to garner the required number of posts for entry into The Stream social group before the deadline. Tougher to fake? The requirement of six months of active posting on TPWW.net. Some posters may be hoping they will be accepted on the weight of their merits. "I signed up on November 5th, 2009, so I won't make the deadline," posts Providence Peep. "But I've been around and started some topics so I plan on asking JamesSteele if he'll make an exception for me. If that doesn't work I guess I'll ask for streams in the Wrestlemania thread, though I hate to do that because I don't want to ruin my image since I'm still pretty new. Maybe I'll try to PM somebody in the group that I know. Maybe I'll just try to google it."

Others aren't so sure. Dark One joined TPWW.net in early January of this year. He doubts he will be accepted into the group, and he plans on posting "ANY STREAMS?" come Wrestlemania time because he "really has nothing to loose (sic) at this point."

I should do live PBP just to see if I can crash the server again.

:shifty:

Dark One 03-19-2010 05:19 PM

Thanks. The $20 I promised you if you made sure no one expects the chair to the head so I can steal their stream invite. FINES BE DAMNED.

HBPunk 03-19-2010 06:35 PM

Order the fucking show

AngryMidjit 03-19-2010 06:58 PM

I'd rather watch it on my giant plasma instead of a shitty stream

Jeritron 03-19-2010 07:08 PM

I am an avid user THE STREAM, but I just can't do it for Wrestlemania. Good luck switching streams 6 times during Taker/Michaels.

NeanderCarl 03-19-2010 07:09 PM

WrestleMania is the one show a year I don't mind paying for. The whole weekend just becomes an event to me and my mates. Hall of Fame webcast Saturday night (hopefully get a stream for the USA Network broadcast as its not aired in the UK until at least the next day) followed by a mass gathering for WrestleMania itself. It's tradition.

So I won't be needing a stream... even though I qualify! :wave:

I don't think it will be hard for this year to top last year's one match card.

lol would be epic if they let the streams go right up to Taker/Michaels and then do a mass shut down at that moment, just before the entrances.

I ordered Wrestlemania from WWE.com one year because the cable service at my college obviously didn't carry PPV.

It was actually pretty good. No lags or anything. I was able to get a hold of an S video cord and put it on the tv too.

The good thing about that is they let you have the PPV for the whole week. I re-watched it from my laptop on mute during a long night class.

Do they still do this and does it cost the same amount? I don't have cable but I don't have a problem paying for it and I am sure as hell not going to pay $35 to go see it at the theater.

Jeritron 03-19-2010 07:24 PM

I'm sure they still do it. I think it was like 10 dollars cheaper.

Yeah I've done this a few times. Like I said, last time was SummerSlam and I got a poster and a Jeff doll.

If you can't watch it on your TV this really is the way to go.

Shaved Monkey 03-19-2010 09:37 PM

If you order it online this time you get a free month of WWE classics. I think that was what I read at least.

Excuse me, but I never posted that remark. I'm not even fortunate enough to be GOING to WrestleMania, so I certainly have no intention of trying to get into your social group there (as exciting as that might be). If you were just using my name to show an example of what someone might say, fine, but I would have appreciated you explaining that ("for example....").

Looks like I better get my post on... although I wouldn't make 500 in two weeks. I wouldn't spam posts because that's sorta like trolling and it's annoying.

Damnit.

I won't link anybody if a birdie comes near my window though.

My friend just got a 50+ inch high def so I'll be a good "noob" and stay away from the 100,000 reply topic. We will be streaming our commentary of the match though.

This is WrestleMania. Not WWE Stipulation. Find a way to pay for it.

el bobbo 03-20-2010 02:43 PM

I've been active for a while. I try not to spam and provide quality content whenever possible. I just don't have the posts up there yet.

Guess I'm going to Buffalo Wild Wings to watch it.

My mistake. I had you confused with Providence Steve. I'll print a retraction in the next TPWW News.
