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.

They've posted here? Read the IrelandOffline board.

They're still a company. Companies advertise. Boards.ie need money. I don't see what the big deal is, as long as there's no ads for Kitten Abattoirs.

Please devore no Kitten Abattoirs.

I suggest you re-read my original post.
It was a light-hearted comment, I think that's immediately obvious.

As mentioned above, one of their staff using the imaginative nick ntl_cable_modem started a thread about their great product that is unfortunately available to about 100 people in ireland.. see http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=63964.

there was a thread in admin about their ad too: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=65641

Heres hoping they expand.

OOoh, bitch-y. I recommend on not starting pointless threads on the admin board. It's a waste of internet-space.

Whatever. I won't be dragged into a pointless argument with you.
And btw, I wasn't being bitchy. You genuinely missed my point.

Actually, no, I didn't. It was a pointless thread that deserved trolling.

Move along.

True, if there was no point to the thread why start it?
Sure, there were Eircom ads here too.

I knew if I asked enough people I'd eventually get a response!

The response being from a girl is just a bonus!
