    Because
    a) mild trolling
    b) I presumed you were shilling
    c) I can't believe anyone would buy a ticket without finding out any details
    d) you'll get a bus there that will bring you to Sligo.

    Ficheall,

    Nobody is trying to suppress your freedom. It's when it becomes a problem e.g. drunken yobbery on the streets. We Irish have a social interaction problem and use alcohol to substitute it - the result is a street ramapge of disorderly conduct with stupid people.

    No, I've no idea where it's leaving from.
    I don't know if the ticket-sellers would actually get in trouble with the college, as the college is actively trying to discourage such, no?

    You would be banned for a few days for this if this sub-forum wasn't so militantly anti-alcohol. And if students getting drunk (shock, horror) pissed you off so much, why don't you leave and join the real world like the rest of us who joined NUIG in 2003/2004?!

    Banned for deliberate misinformation? Possibly. Possibly deserved. Bit of a stretch though.
    If it weren't promoting an event flying in the face of NUIG's stance on "Rag Week", from a suspiciously new poster, then I probably wouldn't have said anything.

    I've a problem with people in general acting like dicks because they're drunk, but I haven't really got a problem with them being drunk, and I don't see how joining "the real world" would help in that regard? Is it more fun out there?

    Because back when I was in college I didn't mind drunken idiot students but now that I'm 26, they piss me off no end whenever I visit Galway. It's all relative really. People get older and attitudes change and people change.

    Of course drunken students that obviously annoy me wouldn't be the sole reason to stay or leave college but I'd definitely consider it a factor when I'm weighing up my options. Just saiyan.

    Ah, I seem to have missed your concern for me in your previous post. My bad.
    I'll bear your advice in mind the next time I'm weighing up such options.

    Back on topic - RAG WEEK WOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
    Most importantly - where's a good place to get pancakes tomorrow?

    http://www.ihop.com/ They do quite tasty pancakes, journey could be a pain. I'd say the mr. waffle in newcastle should have them.
