Is there anyway to stream the WWE Network and do voice chat? Might be fun for new and old shows?

[Natey]

Discord screen share maybe? Rabbit maybe?

Not 100% sure what to use - but I think it might be fun, especially here. We have a fairly tight group with some interesting personalities!

We already have a Discord server featuring over THREE members of HFW so...

I still wish WWE Network was available without a cable package.

Y'know, like how Netflix, Crave, Amazon, Hulu, and others have done.

Any reason why WWE can't seem to follow suit?

It's only Canada that's silly like that. Everyone else is normal.

What probably happened is the TV company had an exclusive contract and wouldn't let WWE roll out the Network. So you get the silly version. Maybe it'll get fixed when the contract is up

There was a problem in the UK too, as Sky used to have the PPVs and wouldn't let the Network be a thing, but they worked it out and we got the normal version.

I suppose so. Must be exclusive to WWE as well, since I have CraveTV without cable.

Goddamn CRTC messing things up.

I think it’s a part of the deal Rogers has with WWE, and then Rogers obviously allows Bell to have it too. I could be wrong though.

I just absolutely hate the demand portion. It’s lacking so much content and rarely updated.

 

[Kimi]

It wouldn't be so bad if you had exactly the same content as everywhere else, but nope. Looking it, Rogers signed a ten year deal in 2014, only five left to go...

Ahem. It's FOUR members...thank you very much!

Honestly with channels like "Big Tiddy Goth Girls" I'm shocked it didn't take off.

Ouuuu sounds like fun

 

[Paris in Flames]

YEAH WELL NOW IT'S THREE CAUSE YO ASS JUST GOT BOOTED.

 

[Disclose]

and how much do we have to pay Bon to be invited?

 

[Disclose]

i think i would hate the idea of listening to all of you during a show.

 

[Paris in Flames]

tbh I think HF is perfectly fine for a day to day thing but Discord would be fantastic during PPV's etc since it's just...basically an organized chat room (voice or text).

 

[Kimi]

There's a 'live thread' feature that can be used on here, where the page automatically updates in real time as people post.

I can't turn it on as the thread starter, so I assume you'd have to get one of the mods to do it.

@ColePens can we get this or is it just for team boards

 

[ColePens]

They make threads live for gdt but it just makes you not need to refresh. Would we want that for raw?

No, PPVs only

Unless we can set a timeframe for when the Raw one is live. 8-12 or something

Over THREE? I'm down, hit me up!

Before it was in Canada, I used to use an American account with a fake US address. I switched when it came to Canada, but that might still be an option.

My original idea came from a few friends and I watching a cheesy horror movie on discord together in a voice chat. One of my friends just shared his screen and everyone watched through that. It was actually a ton of fun just hanging out, making awful jokes, and watching it.

That's why I think old shows might suit it better since people would be talking over it. We could all keep up a thread here with our Meltzer ratings at the end of shows.

We play Jackbox Party Pack the same way where only one person needs the game and the others just a phone. Just by one person sharing their screen.
