Turnstyle Usability

[GhostOfDixie]

Ok, the other day for the Malaga game, I tried to rub my ticket against the thingy. Cos im now used to the card way, so I suppose it could be fairly easy to get it wrong. But as others have pointed out, there are instructions somewhere.

But to be honest you know what to do now, so may I ask, what the fecking point of this thread is?

The point is that I think Everton have very little attention to detail. My job I pride myself on trying to cover all elements of the job, and try and iron out all the little details. But Everton seem to not really have that kind of thought process.

I mean you have to admit the whole ticket and travel debacle 2 season back, and now the new system where away tickets don't seem to count for cup eligibilities.

Oh and the fact the FA Cup final ticket message was still on the customer line 5 days after the final.

It's just when they overlook things, or don't spend enough time on all the details it kind of adds up to a mediocre service.

I think if the club want to think big and have the NSNO as their thing now, then they need to look at every aspect of the club experience.

I was going to reply to this thread but then i thought it'd be useless so i won't

Now for the last few seasons I have just paid for games and use a paper based ticket. So I understand the putting the ticket into the slot. It makes sense, it's obvious. It's what you should do.

So now I have my season ticket, a card. I am more inclined to stick into the slot than anything else. Two tries and nothing, so the ticket guy had to show me, apparently you place the card flat against the slot.

Bizarre. Wonder how many people did that. More complexities from this club.

Bet any regulars behind you were pissing themselves. I would if I saw you do that

I doubt it mate. The guys behind me had worse teeth then the Backstreet Kids.

Sounds like they'd be prone to pissing themselves.

Probably.

By the way, is it always that smoky in the Gwladys toilets?

Surely it's breaking the law. Just saying like.

Haha.

Every week.

It's like the girls toilets at school. We get battered if we get caught, so everyone goes in there.

Ofcourse it's against the law, but they're not going to go in and throw out hundreds of fans for smoking, there'd be a riot.

So we get away with it.

Law is the law though mate. It's not done to piss the smokers off.

I wanted to raise a point over the confusion over stick or swipe. I know now so we can close this thread.

Go on then, next time you're in the Gwladys go into the toilets and shout that.

There was a big kick off outside because a steward reckoned he saw someone smoking and then there was loads of police.

Tell you what though, it was a bit cosy back there at half time.

Well then I suppose I will just close my eyes and count to three.

it is a proximity card reader.

you said something about a guy in f&b 1 time who said can i pay by card, about it being the 21st century etc etc.

proximity readers have been around for yonks as well, large companies have them which open the doors as you walk up to them, you dont even need to take it from your pocket (depending on sensitivity setting), you just walk up, the door opens, you are clocked in (or out) and bobs your uncle, they will also put them around the place to monitor your movements, including the lavs and any skiving holes, big protests about it but all done in the name of ergonomics, to improve efficiency, you cant just leave it somewhere cos you will need it for opening doors. your card can be used for restricting your access and movement, effectively barring you from the canteen before your brew time and telling them time of entry and departure.

get with the tech, this aint 1984.

Why can't we get our season ticket surgically sown into our arm, and we can just walk through unopposed, but obviously if we have no surgicially implanted ticket our head explodes like what happened with that joker in The Running Man.
