    Sorry if this has been asked a million times, i had a search on the site but couldn't find what i was looking for. I want to know what exactly are the benefit of a paid subscription. Access to sex and sexuality/soccer forum? Anything else?

    Cheers

    What he said. Also i'm fairly certain that you don't get access to the soccer forums automatically after subscribing. You still have to request access as standard.

    EDIT - Yep, just checked can't post there as I never requested access.

    Can you pay for it in cash somehow? I am a bit behind the times in that respect.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    I recently subscribed for someone else by them posting me a bank draft and I paid on their behalf via paypal.

    So if I send you €50 (FIFTY-EURO) you will make for the deposit in my most precious account of Boards?

    Sounds like your typical bank draft scam to me. I'd steer well clear of this 6th character. :D

    Oi, wheres that 50 million nigerian dollars you promised me by email? :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    It should be in your account any day now. If you send me another $800 dollars I can have my adviser speed it up for you?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,163 ✭✭✭✭Boston


    If you can prove you're over 18 years of age you can get access to the Sex and sexuality forum* and if you can prove you're not a twat you can get access to the soccer forum.

    * Really up to the mods to decide this on a case by case bases.

    I've never heard that before. Can a relevant mod pm me if it's true? Being 20, I feel I should be able to prove I'm over 18. :D

    Hmmm, interesting. There's no comment from ecksor him/herself though.

    I was planning on subscribing to Boards over the summer, but spending 9 weeks of that time without internet access meant there was no point. I'll hopefully get it sorted out before Christmas.

    The "Post a pic of your Vajayjay or peepeeweepee wearing a silly hat" thread in S and S is worth the cost of subscription alone.
    Kudos to 6th for the hitler tache pubes.

    Could we use animated gifs as an avatar as a subscriber?

    Image tags are disabled in the S&S forum, posting links to porn will get you banned.
    Just becuase you subecribes does not mean you can't have your access to S&S revoked.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    I'm considering subscribing, mainly because I want a name change (and also access to S & S!)

    Problem is, I can't think of a good name. :(
