Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    I started a 6 month internship in April and found myself to be extremely bored on some of the days. I had heard of boards but I thought people who used boards were full of "bellends" but how wrong was I. I'm not messing, if I didn't have boards during my internship, I'm pretty sure I would have went crazy! At first, I used boards to troll but then I actually found it interesting. I'm actually chuffed that my profile hasn't been deactivated because I've been banned from a fair few forums and don't know what I would do without AH

    Some of them are full of bellends, and there's nothing wrong with that.

    Don't discriminate against our gay brethren.

    I subbed a while ago and was gonna change my name but I bottled it! I might drop the "09" bit though. I think that's a bit shíte now that its 2012! :pac:

    see, that's called future proofing + people will forever assume you're 25 ;)

    To start a thread on something I needed the answer to I think. Then I just started replying to other ****ty threads.

    I played Quake. And all my quake friends joined. To be honest I'm nearly certain I have an older account, but I can't remember what the user ID is.

    There was the possibility of some scam involving Littlewoods that never panned out (computer for €4.99 etc). That was in Bargain Alerts.
    Been stuck here since looking for the exit (though I found the toilet a week back).

    Hmm....I am 25 so that could work.

    Either that or people think I was born in 1925 and I'm an 87 year old weirdo posting on boards

    I thought it was because you were such a cougar town addict :pac:

    I should have my balls cut off and returned for actually knowing that... the shame ):

    From using the old poker.ie message boards, I came here to check out the Poker forum.
    Then I got into Prison Break, so I started using that forum.
    Then I got into time-wasting irreverent humour and moaning, so I started using AH.
    Then I got into Lost, so I started using that forum.
    Now I regularly read and/or post in 10-20 forums, and gave up the poker forum a long time ago.

    So that I can 'be sociable' whilst naked from the waist down.
    The only other time I could combine the two was working in a country post office (but even then, I sometimes had to turn away from the customer and reach for stuff).

    Sure, that map is in Beruthiel's sig now under the guise of being a secret surf spot map.

    Yeah, I started on AAM aswell and found myself drifting towards boards, was broader for one than a website dedicated to financial issues
    So I could disagree with people.
    Oh no you didnt!
