    Hey everybody, I just noticed that in the eduaction board, every other university of any standing has a spot, but NUIGalway doesn't. As a member of this fine educational establishment, I would like to know why, and suggest that we petition the Mods to create a place for this, wonderful, Ivy League standard university!! Ok well thats a bit ott, but seriously, anyone else feel left out??

    People didn't see the point of a competition between boards and sin.ie afaik.

    I hate sin.ie.....well, dislike


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 400 ✭✭Wheely


    Why must everything be a competition, I still think we deserve a spot on boards.ie, its only fair after all.... :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 807 ✭✭✭Panserborn


    I was thinking the same thing myself. Would be no harm to have one here!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,730 ✭✭✭✭simu


    Well, sure - I think it would be cool to have a NUIG board here too! Too much hassle logging onto sin seperately.

    Syxpak requested this ages ago, but nothing ever came of it, presumably because of the afformentioned competition between sin.ie and boards.ie that isn't really necessary..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,923 ✭✭✭Playboy


    I'd love to have an nui board here 2 ... any chance we can petition again for it?

    i also want one...i have never bothered to sign in to sin more than a few times cos i like boards more. plus i dont like the sound of that paddy reilly guy *shifty eyes*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,817 ✭✭✭✭po0k


    www.Sin.ie/boards has gone to shít.

    I don't think I ever actually requested it, but I've been very tempted to do so in the past.

    Wheely, if you (and about 10 others) want an NUIG board request one in the Forums board under System. And nominate me for modship as I'm nolonger a student there.

    FFS John, you do realise in the time it took you to post, you could have searched and found it. Cloud said he didn't want to set it up, and my comment afterwards put my rep down a peg because of a -rep from an admin :) .

  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,104 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    the whole reason for it not being made was sin.ie and mikado for maynooth.

    Well I don't know about the rest of you, but I've certainly been swayed by that risqué and groundbreaking piece of visual satire. It's of a quality high enough to belong on ebaumsworld.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,163 ✭✭✭✭danniemcq


    why thank you, and to think it only took me 4 hours, 17 coffee's a few 6 packs and a team of monkeys
