Testing Accessibility

The way my phone browser blocks seemingly random pages on the board and gives me an 'access denied' message - I keep thinking there must be something worth reading behind it!

When your at a house party and some w**ker is sitting there not drinking not saying anything, just sitting there observing and taking it all in. Then when everyone is blocked he goes to town trying to make a a dick out of people, sleezing over all the girls, etc. This person then proceeds to tell stories about everyone the next day. f**k that shit really gets me angry

Lads that ask other posters to post articles. It's understandable for exiles like Puck or PoG to do it occasionally (and I don't think either of those 2 boys have ever done it to be fair to them), but boys in the country that can't be arsed to buy a paper? f**k sake the Irish News is only 70p in the shop if you want to read Heaney on a Tuesday or a £1 if you want Brolly in the Gaelic Life on a Friday, quit your mooching and put your hand in your pocket like the rest of us.

ONeill's recent threads have obviously got your goat. Say I buy the Irish News every day and some bucko on here declares that there is a great article in The Irish Times. Does that mean that I have to go and spend money on The Irish Times just to read the article which could turn out to be shite, knowing that some on this board are able to access the article online?

FFS, the hacks would have 100 threads everyday, if we were to buy a paper every time some bucko recommended an article.

No, that's not what I mean. Generally you'll find that if someone sees an above average article then they'll post it. That's fair enough, I do it myself. But using Heaney and Brolly as an example - everyone knows that they have columns in their papers about 50 weeks out of the 52 on the same day of the week. Yet nearly without fail, but especially when someone says they found the article very good, you'll get someone asking for it to be posted. To me, that's just ripping the arse out of it. I don't think it's a big thing to buy the paper once a week if you're a fan of a columist. It was the same with the Mickey Harte column, every week someone was looking it posted, I'm not sure if it's still the same, probably not because if they're like me they got bored with fairly quickly.

As regards to O'Neill's thread, I like it because I get to look at columnists that I wouldn't usually look at and if I like the look of a particular writer I'll occasionally buy their paper to see what he says. If someone wants to throw up an article unprompted, great but if they don't I wouldn't specifically ask for it.

Those 'Cash for Gold' adverts...Surely there is no-one stupid enough to fall for that?
