If he's looking for gametime, Connacht should be busting their balls to get him up there. They're struggling at 10 this season, which is irritating because almost all the rest is going well! (Not for that kinda money though. No chance)Last edited by Emmet; 10-12-14, 09:53.

I could see how you might post the link unthinkingly, but pretty bad form not to take it down imo. People here aren't faceless strangers, use a bit of discretion.

Turns out it was because you're a bit of a cunt
Provably should have known, what with you being a united fan and all

Is XBMC still the standard for HTPC's?
I've ordered the projector, mount and screen, to be delivered before christmas. Looking to have a PS4 and HTPC as the input - something that could auto download torrents etc.
On another note, are all property solicitors, slow, laboursome, devoid of initiative, or is it just the one who I employed to act on my behalf.
Been attempting to close a house for the guts of nine months now. For the first seven any time I requested an update the ball was in the vendors court, then when they had their shit sorted it appeared that there was issues with regards to my mortgage approval etc. Nothing seems to get done unless I barrage with phone calls. Is this standard?Double-decker bus enthusiast

Jaysus Dobs, you've been here long enough to surely know that that's against the whole ethos of IPB.
No-one would ever posted most of the stuff they do if they thought it was going to be deliberately crosslinked on the biggest site in Ireland. Sure you might as well link to it on Rebel Rams facebook wall for his friends to see, that's the next logical step like.

Why don't you think it's on linking something from here to there though? It's the same as linking anything from 2+2 or pokernews. This is a genuine question cos I honestly don't see the problem. It's not like I went off starting a thread about the goings on of IPB!
RebelRam posted that a long tiketime ago and it was relevant to the ama.

I've been working solid since 8AM Sunday morning now within one poxy step of having everything working and there is one thing stopping me. Just a few hours to shit or bust.
I'm having it easy compared to the other lad with me who got about three hours sleep last night and has now gone off to do a presentation that could take hours.Turning millions into thousands

This morning I turn up for a 9am dentists appointment. I was a week early.

A poster from IPB isn't. It's exposing his post to a wider audience than he intended. Even if nobody that knows him ever sees it, it's not the point.
It's against the community aspect here.

I wouldn't have posted the link, and I think its bad form to do so on balance, but essentially this:

Most people on the BBV know one another quite well and they would feel comfortable posting serious issues. It's not a written rule that we don't repost, it's just expected we don't. Otherwise the BBV just wouldn't work.Last edited by Jibzzzz; 10-12-14, 11:48.

I'm not actually looking for (another) mortgage though thankfully.People say I should be more humble I hope they understand, they don't listen when you mumble

Any opinions on pros/cons of buying outright vs getting a buy to let mortgage in my situation?
In general, not looking at a specific property/area

Originally posted by Tar.Aldarion View PostI was interested in buying outright vs getting a mortgage before. People didn't understand why a millionaire was getting mortgages. Some financial whizzes on reddit put forward a clear case of how a mortgage was always better as the remainder could easily earn more than you would lose during the mortgage. Wish I could find the thread but search on that site is a disaster.

We've a skewed view of property values here, really over the long term it massively under-performs other asset classes.
