    For me it was seeing a friend use the leaving cert thread to get mock papers that we could learn off the night before our mocks :rolleyes:

    Didnt discover AH till last June I think!

    So what set you on the enlightened path?

    I was in the middle of a really boring essay last night and needed a distraction.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,178 ✭✭✭✭NothingMan


    Needed to ask about something years ago, then forgot about it and needed to ask something again a few months ago, it said I already had an account and then I started looking around and got hooked. Now I never get any work done!

    I'm a journalist so y'know reading posts on here and then rewording them as my own articles is much easier than actually working.

    Was shown boards by a friend, lurked for a couple of years before I finally had something to add and signed up.

    Leaving cert forums I think.. I have an old account which I started then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,555 ✭✭✭✭AckwelFoley


    I was banned from Neowin.net after 11,000 posts about boobies

    Apparently it a computer support site.

    Not a boobies appreciation site.


    I found this site after i seen an advert in a paper for boards.ie seeking a resident pervert


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 871 ✭✭✭gerTheGreat


    Someone told me about the models forum... I was deeply disapointed to say the least. :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 283 ✭✭dee8839


    Came for the legal discussion help while on work experience.

    Stayed for the hours of mindless dossing instead of actually working and using the info I originally got from boards.

    And now its helping me gradually fail my LLM.

    Thanks boards!!:rolleyes:

    I went out picking magic mushrooms in my usual spot at the usual time of year but there was none there for the first time in like 5 years or something, so I figured , what the fukk worth a shot just typing it into the net. "Magic mushrooms, dublin, where??" Got directed to a thread on here and found out about a head shop I didn't know about that had them. Took me 2 mins on this site and a 20min bus ride into town to score that weekned instead of a hike up the dublin mountains and 2 hours crawling round a field. Convinced me boards.ie was the place to be.
