Re: People selling tix on ebay etc
Notice how they are offering to change the name on the ticket rather than saying that they will do a change of name e-mail.
I'll amend the tickets so they say your name so that you can print them off (right away) and take them with you

So someone who really knows the drill then too....
Re: People selling tix on ebay etc
I don't see the point in what they're doing... I mean, they're giving them away for free, so they aren't making any money from it.
Why not just leave the tickets up for people to grab legitimately instead of hoarding them and then posting them on gumtree?

That's exactly what I thought. I wonder if its any barred users from here.phunkygal wrote:well there almost deffo on fmuk as this was the only place that the paranormal code got posted unless they were emailed it directly

It definitely has to be FMUK user because most the tickets are gone by the time they are posted on other forums (also what you said about the paranormal thing).
[spoiler]I'm very tempted to email to ask for a pair of tickets just to reveal the identity![/spoiler]

Doubt they're reading it but just incase, I thought I'd spoiler it (assuming they don't know any other functions except click on FreeFilms board)!

Actually, a_person's suggestion would be worth trying, though only if the person attempting this could make the request in another identity, so as not to cause her/himself problems with this rogue.
Re: People selling tix on ebay etc
This is ridiculous, its hard enough to get tickets as it is before they all go without someone hoarding them for no reason!!!!

Re: People selling tix on ebay etc
Well it is one thing getting tickets for friends and folks on the site but to put them up for grabs like that for free, that's another thing altogether.Perhaps they are misguidedly thinking the films will be seen by a wider audience as perhaps different folks look on gumtree, but run the risk that SFF will stop the free screenings for all.
Can anyone not post on a Gumtree Board, do you have to live in the city you are posting on??

Re: People selling tix on ebay etc
How can we go about finding out who these people are so as to have them banned from seefilm first and here?
