    Youtube embedding is enabled, but not like other places.

    Just cut and paste the entire url and it will embed. Simples.

                      PokerTalk.ie almost succeeded but failed because the mods were willing to work on Boards.ie. That's not the case here and you guys have great reputations so I have no doubt that this place will take off.

                      If you need any hand with anything, just give me a shout

                          You know how to get email notifications working? I can get them to send but the link doesn't work. This includes validation emails. I think I might need a php script or something, but that isn't my strong suit.

                          Everything else has mostly been figured out.

                              God knows. Boards is such a behemoth now.

                              I'd say the poker forum over there will continue to be fair although I'd be amazed if they could get people to moderate it to be honest.

                              I don't know how you guys plan on doing it but a "Poker Mods Resign" thread might have a ring of deja vu about it and could undermine your position. Possibly each of you post in the BBV about it?

                                  Is it a page not found error that's served when someone clicks a verification link? vB handles all account verifications internally so there should be no need to do anything out of the ordinary to get things to work. I'd advise you have a quick check of all the paths and urls in the settings because broken links can be caused by an extra "/" here or there.

                                  Also, why won't my picture upload?
                                  As far as I know, there's a directory on the server that needs to be given the correct permissions. Once that's sorted then there shouldn't be any problems with uploading pictures

                                    So this is where it's gonna happen then....best of luck lads with the new site and it's gonna be home :-) I'll have to split loyalties for the time being with Boards because of the HU league.

                                          No thread from us over there. If someone else starts one in poker so be it, but we won't be. It has been done in private this time.

                                          This isn't a big fuck you to boards, but rather a 'we can't work for you anymore'.

                                          I will stil lcontinue to use boards and post on other parts of the site, although I hope this is an active poker forum once it is up and running.

                                                We've already resigned, we're not going to make a song and dance over it though.

                                                We're gonna do up a Mission Statement of sorts for here tomorrow or whenever, but it's basically just this place is 100% for the Poker community, the direction boards is going just doesn't fit with the Poker forum any more, a Poker forum will definitely go on over there, but, IMO it won't be what it used to be.

                                                    FWIW, as long as this forum continues I won't be using Boards Poker anymore. I use the Legal and Basketball forums and will continue to but you guys pretty much all know where I stood over the last while and that hasn't changed.

                                                    Irish Poker Boards FTW.

                                                      Thanks Kayroo, I'm the same, I'll still use other areas of boards, but not the Poker forum.

                                                            There is also a 100 posts/page option if anyone wants it, and custom avatars. We stopped uploading after doing about 12, so custom avatars was easier than putting up loads more imo.

You read a book and the writer touches something in you that you would not have brought out of yourself. He makes you discover something interesting in your life. If you are living like an animal, what is the point? What makes the day interesting is that we try to transform it into something that is close to art." - Arsene Wenger

                                                                          How the fuck are the Colts not 3+ scores ahead of the Jets?

                                                                          Also; how bad is the Colts Defensive Coach? Everyone knows the Jets go big on 1st Down deep in their own half and the Colts allow 167 passing yards in the first half inc. 2 70+ yard passes and the longest play in Jets post-season history? I swear if Manning doesn't score again I'll go mental. He's killing the spread.

                                                                                  Interesting discussion this week about how the Bob Hope field was way way weaker than the Abu Dhabi field and how the European Tour is looking like it might move ahead of the PGA Tour in terms of attracting the biggest names week in, week out.

                                                                                  Obv with 3 of the 4 Majors being in the US the PGA Tour is still in a good position as it will keep the big players on that Tour at least some of the year but with the Asian market being moved into by the European Tour and that being the new money market, surely the decline of the PGA Tour is inevitable over the next 5-7 years?

                                                                                                We're obviously gonna be a little more liberal about it here, but for the moment it's a no on a dedicated thread/forum. We also don't want to draw too much unwanted attention to ourselves, so for the minute it's the same cousins list as we have, but when we get more time, we cab look into it properly and decide again.

                                                                                                    Yep, same here but I took out one of the slashes and still no joy. Blank page.

                                                                                                    I suspect it should be redirecting to www.irishpokerboards.com/forum/index.php but you probably want to put something in place for www.irishpokerboards.com/index.php too.

I didn't realise that there was a necessity to deposit within the 60 days, and I cant recall my affiliate telling me this either.


                                                                                                                I am now available more frequently to play online, and as such, asked a friend to transfer me some money before I chose how much of my bankroll to move to FTP.


                                                                                                                This will definitely affect my choice to play at Full Tilt, and I'm afraid I'm going to have to stick to other sites that I have an established rakeback connection with. I feel this 60 day limit is an unnecessary obligation to put on players, and it is quite disappointing as I had enjoyed the "Rush" game thus far. It is especially disappointing as I seem to have missed the limit by less than 10 days.


                                                                                                                If there really is nothing you can do, I will have no other choice but to play elsewhere.


                                                                                                                Thanks for your time.
