That cannot possibly be legal…?
The MDF is off limits for all but telcos/electricians. Just so happens I've worked on MDF's before and have access to mine so popped in and figured it out.
It's almost the perfect crime.
- Internet User reports fault to ISP
- ISP determines line fault, commissions 3rd party to visit on-site
- 3rd party comes on-site, determines "cabling issue" and resolves
- 3rd party issues bill to ISP, whom pay it
- Internet user gets Internet working
The ISP is none the wiser that the cabling issue was caused through maliciousness. It's like the mechanic who intentionally damages the engine etc…

Sneaky stuff for sure, it would piss me right off tbh.

We're not all backwards dicks down here MP. There's good and bad people throughout the world. Suggest you keep it open to the world and don't let a bad apple spoil the bunch.
I know, I know and I'm really sorry that I used the nationality in the rant. In the end the total for the P+P came to £10.00 I manfully resisted the urge to ask for the additional funds to be sent before I shipped the items…
When I use Ebay I like to offer a worldwide service, on the basis that, if someone wants to give me money for my stuff where they live shouldn't be an issue. Unfortunately, there are always those who do...
I sold some comic books to someone in the U.K last year who quibbled over my postage rates. She told me that she could have them delivered using the same company she uses to sell on Ebay for £4.00, but it would mean me waiting in until some unspecified time... I told her again that the P+P costs would be £5.00
Eventually she relented...
Still, must keep thinking happy thoughts.

Getting that way. Paid $150 today to have someone with the same skillset I've got but with a license behind him who in about 5 minutes confirmed the prior as to why I've got no internet. Now it's the waiting game to get re-connected, and I'm out of pocket. There's no one "at fault" for me to recoup the funds from. Really the perfect crime, and the entire time I'm stuck using my phone for internet :|

If you block a lane of traffic so that you can cut in front of people in another lane of traffic, kill yourself.

Humanity is a fucking scourge. Stupid human tricks, volume 3,584,638 issue 848,949: hunting the majestic Western black rhino to extinction because "hey, that horn looks phallic. Maybe it can help me get this shriveled pathetic noodle I call a penis to stand up straight."

iMessage is an unmitigated disaster. I don't know why Apple can't figure out services. I think they probably should have bought Twitter before the IPO announcement to shore that up.
I am turning iMessage off until Eddy Cue unfucks it. If he doesn't get it and other services fixed fast, his head should roll. Services are critical to Apple's long term prospects.

Yeah, it is a scaling issue I guess. For the last month or so.

Hahaha RP on that last part. But seriously, I hope for a speedy convalescence sir.

Instructors who feck off the whole class period, don't lecture, and then make the most insanely difficult exams can piss up a rope.

@RP:
So I have a Grade 2 calf strain (approximately 2.5 cm of damage in the calf muscle). Hurts like a bitch. Who knew something as small and short as 2.5 cm could wreak such havoc? Seul? Mega?
I think the answer to the question is Mrs RP
