just for the night or a day or something, i think i speak for the majority when i say im not fancying randomers signing up just to nick the backdoor links and crashing these forums aswell as the actual ticket agencies!

And yes i am a selfish git, but i do think its fair.

Calm down, I was joking.

Neil would never do anything like a private forum. He probably gets most his hits on ticket sale day.

Besides, people don't have to join up to see the forums, 'guests' can read everything and click whatever they like.

I don't mind people who have just joined and who will contribute after ticket day but it's the people who just use bthe site for direct links and make the site crash that annoy me.

+1 just summed it up perfectly, its alright ppl joining and using links (if any) when they appear, as long as they have a valid input and actually contribute to the forums

Yeh great idea n all..... :P

it is available with in Efestivals via groups he you are so inclined... :P

However the fact that large ticket days help pay for the site I am sure Neil would be only to happy to allow the site to loose one of it big pay days to protect a few people who use the site for free already.......

I will stick the Efestivals donation link here it at the bottom. Should you feel the need.

I'm all for Efestivals making money, but do thy make money off the large surge of people coming on for back door links then never using the site again? If they do then I take back what I said.

Christ, if a few randomers come on and nick a backdoor link it's hardly a crime against humanity is it. I was one of them last year and very much appreciated it (cheers! :-P). The fact these people don't use the forum is irrelevant, they probably read the rest of the website all the time and have got better things to do than sit here talking to you.

If you're worried about getting tickets, try harder, stop pissing and farting about like a fanny because someone got in there first.
