    I am on this site a few months now and I have somehow managed 34 posts but jaysus I find the site baffling. I did manage to find the thread starter, but that only took 2 month and huzzaz I am here. So FAS have been spending our money mainly on themselves and failing students. So now that they are getting their act together should they do a course on how to operate boards IE as it will give the students something to do when they are unemployed after any FAS course they done.

    PS don't bother replying to this as I have not learned how to refresh the page anyway.

    If it took you 2 months to find out how to start a thread then you'll need more than a FÁS course.

    How about training ye to give enough skills to try for a job?

    Me, I was here two years before I learned what ftw meant. And I still don't know what IIRC means and yes if you can't be bothered to type it I can't be bothered to google what it means. Though I've a fair idea

    Maybe FAS should do a course on how to teach the Boards webmasters how to fix the search function.

    Even if they gave them the answers in advance, I don't think anybody would complain. At least we could find the post we added to the thread complaining about it. ;)

    If I remember correctly, IIRC means In Ireland Rampant Cattle. Baffling abbreviation.

    Been sitting here trying to think of something witty and sarcastic to say about FAS having a course on boards.

    All that I want to type is how much of a f**king joke the organization is:

    The structure is a joke.
    The staff are a joke.
    The budget is a joke.
    The course content is a joke.
    The accreditation is a joke.
    The fact the organization is not being abolished is a joke.


    It's just a pity none of the above is funny.



    The name FAS does not deserve to be in the same sentence as Boards.ie, and hey, I'm not too hot on Boards either :mad:

    In realtion to the search function

    You can still use google as its crawling here all the time
    * site:boards.ie

    Replace the * with keyboards for your search @ boards.ie

    EG
    FAS site:boards.ie
    in the google search bar will give you this
    http://www.google.ie/search?q=FAS+site%3Aboards.ie&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a

    If you get my drift..
