Conversely, there are no other threads from Cork/Galway/Waterford people etc. Instead they seem to use the specified forums for these areas. Why the difference? And can the mods not do something about it?

Ah's strictness on off topic threads can be shaky at times. I know I've taken five minutes sometimes to trawl the first two pages and move about 15 threads out. Other times we may just leave some like the above because we're too lazy, and they're vaguely close to being on-topic.

Afterhours has always been a self-defining kinda pic-n-mix. Seamus does a cracking job as its mod. I rarely go in there because it scares me though.
