    Ticket touts ad on this forum

    A note about ticket trading: We have absolutely no problem with it on one strict condition, that the ticket isn't traded for more than the cover and perhaps a little extra for postage. Posters trying to sell tickets for inflated prices will have their threads moved to the crapper and their posting privileges suspended, with no exceptions. No touts on Foot.ie.

    Thanks,
    adam
    Well why the fuk is there an ad on this site for ticket touts a la needaticket.ie?

    Calm yourself, dahamsta doesn't personally approve or endorse each ad on this site; as far as I know Google Ads displays them automatically based on its own relevance criteria. It might help if you specified which ad you were alluding to. Although this issue may have been dealt with before, now that I think of it.

    What Sheridan said. Next time try asking instead of ranting and breaking our rules into the bargain.

    That site is blocked now. Here's the righteous indignation from the last time I blocked them.

    It takes an hour or so for the block to activate.

    "why the fuk" is both ranting and breaking our rules.

    Ok fair enough. Apologies again, no offence intended. That'll teach me not to go posting after i come in from the pub at that time of the morning.
