    Hey,

    I was wondering if anyone had a spare dell laptop charger? (I have an Inspiron 2200, but any 19v charger should do).

    Thanks :)

    You could try PC world up near the parkway shopping center. No gurantees they'd have the proper charger though.

    Tried there, but they have universal chargers and the guy told me that people had been returning them because they don't seem to be up to standard.

    If you don't like how the forum is modded you need not return!

    We work just fine in our own little informal bubble here!!

    Are we only allowed educational threads?

    It was a pretty informal request if anybody had a spare charger. No need for adverts.ie

    That's true, if I didn't use my laptop for assignments I think I'd be in the dossiest course in history :p

    Advertising would be digiking starting a thread saying 'Dell power charger - €20' and looking for offers.

    This is just a friendly offer. I assume they sorted it out by PM.

    What now?

    Oh look a thread on the Vengaboys hardly an educational thread and started before this one.

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055359060

    Or this a thread about drinking (my favourite type of thread) not the most educational either, unless of course you want to educate yourself on the vast amount of different types beer you can get.

    Just for good measure let us have a look at something from the UCC forum:

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055334794

    Not really educational either. So why did you start complaining on this thread when there's a myriad of other threads that don't qualify as educational around this forum and the site.

    There's also a section in the charter about posting in retarded text speak and another about reporting posts that you have a problem with. So why don't you <snip>*"$%^&£</snip> and read the charter yourself before telling other people to do so.

    Come to think of it the common sense rule at the end of the charter probably covers this type of thread from a moderators viewpoint. Someone in UL needed a charger for a Dell laptop and they posted up here to see if anyone could sort them out or let them know where they could pick one up. I personally don't see any problem with that, forums are supposed to be helpful and charters are not supposed to be rule books that are set in stone.

    Maybe you should be as your name suggests :pac:

    As has been said, its UL specific, and the person didnt start a thread offering to sell it, it was also said that
    PM me if your interested and i'll bring it up on sunday night, You can take it for 20 quid

    Its no longer a forum issue, its a private sale between people.

    Rory, read the charter as well. Thats dangerously close to personal abuse!

    I think this has run its course.

    As noted by Mossin, its a private matter now, so locking the thread.
