» Qjump is a piece of shit
People all over the country are having issues buying tickets to Splendour In The Grass - from SQL errors, to simply kicking users out of the queue. (I was not at all comfortable with being greeted by a dodgy-looking SQL error after entering my personal and credit card details.)
After the mess that was last year’s ticket sales arrangement, you would think they would have got it right this year. It is not like the sudden influx of users this morning was unexpected - that excuse simply won’t fly this year.
Chekout the Splendour forums for all the fun of thousands of pissed off patrons venting their disgust.
Congratulations Qjump, you just made the list.
