Can the http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=63719 tread be amended to have a pro's and cons addtion.

Perhaps a pros: cons bit can be added to eash service, eg UTV : PROS : Very professional customer service seems to be the norm for boards readers etc ?

On that thread/post:

I've had a PM from Muck updating the prices & will be slotting that in as an update

You're right on the pros/cons I think. We'll have to be careful (partly on a legal basis) as listing them semi-officially is different from people posting their opinions in the regular threads. Far easier for people than searching through the threads - we'll at least list something.

Synkronite dropped me a mail asking if it was possible to have a FAQ section for some of the more-asked questions. I'm also looking at this.

Bit vague at the mooment but this week will be pretty busy so most of this won't be looked at till next weekend:(

As long as they're fact there shouldn't be an issue.

Maybe included in the details would be info like average ping times etc. Might help a person find what he/she is looking for.

I think the ping time thing is very important as most factual info can be got from the sellers site but things like ping times can only realy be got from users on the ground.Prime example is IBB,customers who are on the Sandyford/Three Rock tower have no complaints but people on the Rte Tower say the pings suck.IF you need a hand gathering info I can lend a hand as I will be looking into both leap+IBB for myself anyways
