    Here we go!

    Current Affairs forum is now live!

    We sat again for an hour and a half discussing maps and figures and always getting back to that most damnable creation of the perverted ingenuity of man - the County of Tyrone.

    Ah, big enough news in context of AH.

    Did many mods faint when they realised how many threads they may have to reclassify between the forums, especially early on. :pac:

    As long as Ribena has money left over to sponsor the ageless James Millner I'm okay with that.

    So as a starting point and a guideline, the etiquette/scat thread would stay in AH while the Ana Kriegel thread would move to current affairs?

    Am I doing this right?

    This is it
    Registered Users Posts: 5,185 ✭✭✭This is it


    What made AH great was the ability to have serious and joke threads in the same forum. When a poster needed serious advice, AH rallied and helped as best they could, when there was a joke thread, the pîss was taken. Serious and fun worked, maybe that's changed.

    Anyway, best of luck with the new forum, I can't see both staying active long term though.

    Not really. There are quite a few potential topics that aren't 'Bump this thread until 2070', but also aren't 'I hate unemployed transgender Muslims'.

    I think it's a brilliant idea and hopefully it'll cleanse AH of all the overly serious bores who've infested the place in recent years.

    Just a note to users. Some of the threads that appeared in After Hours will now appear in the current affairs forum.
    Remember you should know by the thread title if it's for you when it appears in your news feed.

    And on the other hand such topics often need to be grounded with mirth

    Where is this forum even I don’t see it. And I sure won’t go looking for it :confused: must be confined to the higher echelons. This is beyond my level of comprehension

    Does this mean we can't add puntastic and sarcastic comments to topical news events, since they'll be in their new home?
    I'm doomed!
