    Seriously i'm getting lost trying to find this forum now, in 5 days it's had 3 names. I understand it's for SSF, but enough is enough, pick a name, stick with it, cause it's pissing me off!

    What are you on about - This isn't After Hours. It is Classic Rock:D

    You've managed to switch on a computer, so I am sure you can also work out how to put this forum into your "subbed" list (or make it a favourite) - problem solved

    Although I agree the SSF is a worthy cause, I can see where the frustration comes from. It hasn't exactly been smooth. Top of the forum says Classic Rock but it's still The Culchie Forum on the menus.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,070 ✭✭✭✭My name is URL


    FF's smart address bar ftw! I just type 7 into it and AH is the top result.. whatever the name

    Afaik, it takes 24 hours for the menu to change.

    Subbed to AH forum should stop any confusion.

    I relish the challenge every day of finding the forum. I feel like I'm solving a puzzle set by the mods. Go me!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,094 ✭✭✭jd007


    Just put the forum under your subbed list.....problem solved.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,640 ✭✭✭Pushtrak


    I just go to View New Posts, and go to whatever thread I'm interested in. Problem solved without the need of bookmarks.

    When I look at my subbed list every day, it's like playing Where's Wally? trying to find AH. :D I just look down through the list for some random name, and there we have it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,877 ✭✭✭stripysocks85


    Ooooooh someone got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning!!!!

    I'm a technotard and I can manage it. Don't be such a buzz-kill ffs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,383 ✭✭✭emeraldstar


    I don't mind the name changing as such, but the fact that whatever is the current name is never the same as it is in the drop down menu is a bit irritating.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,264 ✭✭✭✭Alicat


    Jeez, it's for charity, give over will ya! So what if it takes an extra 5 seconds to scan down the 'Rec' list to find it?

    Some people expect to be spoonfed everything :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,462 ✭✭✭MaybeLogic


    I have to say I'm loving the name changes and different themes.
    It's really livened the place up.
    Would be nice to see it as a regular feature,once a fortnight or month,or something.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,477 ✭✭✭grenache


    Its always the first forum under 'Rec' anyway. Whats the big fuss about?! Just look for the newest forum name and you're sorted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,659 ✭✭✭CrazyRabbit


    What if I donate €20 to have it renamed to "Xinkai's Forum"? Will that help?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,916 ✭✭✭RonMexico


    I'd make it invisible on all menu's except for the front portal. Now that would **** with people. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    I got quite excited at seeing that there was now a Classic Rock forum. It lasted for 5 seconds until I realised what it really was.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 577 ✭✭✭Milky Moo


    When is the next name change coming?
    The only one I found funny so far was the culchie forum!
    Entertain me After Hours or the forum formally known as After Hours!

    Someone got out of the wrong side of their bed today - It's for charity.

    Maybe they should keep changing it :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,368 ✭✭✭Daroxtar


    Can we change it back to the culchie forum? I enjoyed the jackeen free enviornment.


  • Administrators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 78,393 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭Beasty


    It makes me wonder how some people ever found AH in the first place. They whinge about the changes, but seem to struggle to take any of the simple advice given here to find the forum whatever the name.

    Anyway, I think it has been a great success. The people complaining are very much in the minority (probably less than a dozen or so have posted they are particularly unhappy with it in various threads)

    Perhaps next year we should do it slightly differently - anyone who wants a particular name can put it forward with their bid, and if anyone does not want that name they can bid more to retain AH for that day. SSF benefits either way. And if anyone really does not like it, they can do something about it (other than the obvious of putting AH into their subbed or favourites list)

    Indeed brother, we've tasted freedom, t'was a great time and one we won't forget. There's talk of revolution from Clonbern to Bridey MacFlingergens shed, we won't stop till we've had our day, again. Tiocfaidh ár lá scan!
