    UNItix is pathetic

    For the past two days I have been attempting to buy 2 adult and 2 youth season tickets on UNItix and it keeps giving me a message that it cannot secure seats for me. I find it hard to believe that season tickets are no longer available. Is anyone else having problems with this?

    Another thing, I majored in MIS at UNI and that website is terrible, can we not make it look and work more professionally!

    Re: UNItix is pathetic

    You could call and buy tickets.


    Wait, that would mean having to talk to someone and not having something to complain about.


    It also looks like that website isn't run by UNItix. Instead it appears to be run by Administration and Financial Services

      I know I can call them, but it seems ridiculous that UNIPanthers.com has a link to purchase season tickets when it doesn't work. I would think UNI would like to make it as easy as possible to purchase tickets, but what do I know.

        UNItix is never, ever, even slightly to blame for any of the problems that people have getting UNI tickets. It's always somebody.... anybody.... elses fault.

        And '83 is quick to point that out any time it comes up.


        I mean, that's like blaming Microsoft for how easily Windows machines get infested with viruses. After all, it's not Microsoft itself that puts those viruses on the computers.

          That's right, it's Norton and McAfee.

          Or does MS own them?

            No, if the link doesn't work then UNItix, or whoever is in charge of the website, should be notified of the issue and admit that there was some form of a mistake.

            I just don't really see the point of calling a department on campus (any department on campus really) "pathetic" on PantherNation without having tried to resolve the issue with them.


            Especially in cases where other departments have said that something isn't ready to go yet.

              And yet people tear apart professors and the like who speak up against athletics. And of course, the constant bashing of athletic directors and the like.

                This is a separate & distinct issue. I was attempt to use a discount code, which has not been created (or at least entered) in the ordering platform. MIS is trying to purchase season tickets.

                There is not a ton of banked good will with UNI Tix given the series of less than stellar performances in the past 3-5 years.

                    While 83 may be a little over zealous, from my experience he is right. I have attended soooo many events since we switched to this stupid ticket setup. I have experienced very few issues, and when I have my issues were usually with someone not in the ticket office (mistakes made in seating, etc).

                    The only issue I've ever had is asking a question about an event and the person in the McLeod office didn't have any idea. Most of the workers are students and some of them pay more attention than others.

                    Unfortunately we don't have people posting when their experience is normal or good. I would hope a small amount of people are having issues, but not being able to order season tickets is a major issue, and someone needs to notify the ticket office or AD so that the proper person can take care of it.

                      who? This would be my only screen name, so I have no idea what you are talking about.

                        Geez, I am sorry I do not have time to call the ticket office during the day because of my job. I guess the fact that the website does not function properly is my fault, give me a break. I program user interfaces for a freaking living and UNItix is less than sub par. I could whip something better in a few hours in Coldfusion better than that site. Damn, I thought I was surfing the Internet in the late 90's not 2010!

                          What is this in response to? I don't think anyone was attacking you personally. But I'm sure you could shoot them an e-mail to make them aware of the problem. It may not be your fault, but you're the one having an issue, so why not make them aware of it?
