probably unreliable and could cause a mix up or votes scandal

I think in the past there have been particular technical issues with text voting which have led to a lot of text votes being held up in the system and arriving too late to be counted.

So they probably decided that not allowing text votes at all was easier than sorting out the technical problems associated with them.

The text votes had a tendency to mess up so they stopped this in a lot of the shows.
