    Indeed. Let the "I have a spare ticket" threads begin.

    looking for tickets as well, willing to pay €15 for it!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 56 ✭✭snowcrazie


    Why not open the old bar and sell a few more tickets? make a bit of money back after the rag ball, its never as good without the old bar. Surely the licence wudn't be too hard to sort out.

    They are giving us exactly what we asked for, simple and cheap :) - good times.

    I think he meant guest list as in people getting in free by being put on said list. In which case it's probably about 20-30 people. All of the exec have a +1 and whatever artists are playing will get a few people in too.

    not to mention Ferdi always gets a ticket if he wishes to use it :)

    or at least that was the case in the past..

    Some pr*cks of security eh, ruined the night for a lot of people. These people are, in my opinion, the lowest people in society, doing a s*it job at something that it could be relatively easy to be sound about. Yet they think that they are the best people around, and are constantly on a power trip. I ain't stuck up, but the way they treated people last night and the way that they spoke to people was sub-human, if people didn't need to put up with them just to have a good night they would probably have some serious problems on their plate, because talking to people like they do and treating people the same way, in general society on day to day life would be 100% out of order.

    Sorry about the rant, and please don't start picking it apart people and analysing every word.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 693 ✭✭✭douglashyde


    I agree, however a lot of people where trying to sneak in last night so they really did have a tough time.

    My MASSIVE problem with last night is that some gob****e security guards tied shut the fire escapes to stop people sneaking in......... Tying shut the fire escape is not only extremly dangerous, it is also illegal!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 naturejinx


    I had a few run-ins with security, was insulted a few times and told I was only arguing because I was drunk- I don't drink.

    I noticed the fire escapes, and although I appreciate that it can't be fun or easy to stop people sneaking in, fires aren't fun or easy either.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 124 ✭✭Fiftysix


    They should have locked the fire escapes when the glee yoke was on and burnt all those ****ers.

    I seen that too actually, reminds me of a famous fire in a nightclub a good few years ago ! ! ! ! !

    I noticed that a lot of people were trying to sneak in, but people have busy/hard days at work every day, a little respect isn't much to ask. As I said above, in my opinion, it all comes down to these id*iots power tripping because they think they are big and powerful.

    Who's this you ask? Well some of you may have noticed gizmo has decided to step down as DCU mod after a few years service, and I've been asked to take over. Tbh if I do half as good as he's done down the years I'll be doing pretty well!

    So yeah, carry on :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Nice one Daysha, congratulations!

    What makes this even funnier is that Fiftysix was in Glee. Got banned for taking the piss of his own show.

    Just don't be a power mad **** like the rest of these mods.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,641 ✭✭✭andyman


    Oh Jesus it's Steve in control. PREPARE FOR THE NAZI INVASION!!

    Couldn't go to the ball myself. Heard mixed reports about it though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 85 ✭✭StiLL-TrAiNinG


    RIP in peace gizmo.

    (Good job over the years.)

    They where tying them shut with some sort of cloth.

    Haha, quiet you :P

    And I'm suppose to know this how exactly?

    This is the problem with modding college forums, there's obviously numerous posters who know each other and their backgrounds more than others and that makes things a bit tricky for us. I know a good few people in glee, but I wasn't involved with it myself and I don't know fiftysix personally so there was absolutely no way of me telling he/she was involved in the show itself. I'm not a mind reader! All I can work off is the post I see, and I've already had confirmation from another mod that they would've taken the same course of action based on that post alone. Despite that I'll be nice and reduce the ban by a few days and that'll be the end of it :) Just remember in the future I can't be expected to know the entire ins and outs of who does what in DCU, that's not my job. Any other problems bring it up with me via PM and not in the thread itself. Cheers!

    I didn't think you were supposed to. I just thought it was pretty funny is all, don't take it personally.

    I don't think many people would have a problem with someone closing a door . . . . . . .

    it's less about the door, and more about locking a fire door, that's highly ilegal and we would have all been ****ed if a fire had started, stardust anyone?
