Fully aware I'm hypocritically putting this in the wrong section, but I think it warrants it.

Just reading a comment in other football, which genius has done this again then?

Brilliant.

www.porktalk.co.uk
 

I heard the URL had gone offline but it's good to see moD has restored it. Even if the joke is a bit old now.
 
Bladesman As an point of reference I did originally tag the culprit, but then realised a Whois search would pull up his actual name and address. If he wants to own up to it instead that's up to him. So please remove the reference to the poster in your post.
 
No idea what this is about whatsoever. Any chance someone could fill the blanks without having to look for it...

I think it is basically that if you type porktalk into Google, the first site that comes up is

Sheffield Wednesday News. Team News, Results and Ticket Info.
www.owlstalk.co.uk/
Sheffield Wednesday fans forum with SWFC fans from all over the world discussing Sheffield Wednesday Football Club. Debate on news, transfers and results ...

And if you type porktalk.co.uk into the browser or click on the link it goes directly to owlstalk.

Basically somebody has set up a site that redirects porktalk directly to owlstalk. Trivial to do, and very childish, but then so are the pigs.

The real benefit would be to sort the SEO out so if you type owlstalk into Google/Bing the first link that comes up would be owlstalk:)
 
Seems to be some sort of self-congratulatory fan appreciation site?

Something to do with Justin's Beliebers maybe? Seemed on that sort of level anyway.

Did the owlstalk domain name also get changed at one point years back?

I seem to remember it did but I could be wrong.

As far as i recall the last person to do it was Gambling Blade from Bladesmad, put to my knowledge it was just the same as this miscreant has done. Just redirecting traffic from pork talk to owlstalk.

You can't just take over someone's domain name without their permission. Not legally anyway.
 

Does this rank above discussions about potential blades players in the list of forum felonies or below it?

I need some clarification as to how outraged I should be.
 
I always thought it was brilliantly childish and funny. I have no idea who did it originally - it certainly wasn't my idea originally - but I was saddened when I realised the domain had been allowed to expire. I've won a few quid gambling lately and having watched a full 90 minutes of the filth (Play-Off final) I felt I had to do something to cleanse myself.

As Highbury_Blade alluded to, I have very recently moved to the Philippines - consider this my leaving gift to Blades all around the world. Thanks for the concern by the way Highbury - the address shown is my old London place anyway, but you're right that not everyone would want their real name plastered all over the web.
 
Looks like the redirect has been blocked. Either that or my laptop is refusing to navigate to any Wendy related site so good on it.

Make sure you're out there at least a year. I've always fancied diving in the philippines...

It's as bad as the Hermitage advertising the championship play-off semi this year; worse than Hammond stealing a wage; not as bad as the Hammond petition; and not as bad as the final game v Scunthorpe.
It's as disgraceful as a certain poster (accurately) predicting what a pillock we had as manager 12 months ago; worse than someone saying that United will get promotion in mid March but a week later , sack Adkins; it's not as bad as last season's kit.

That's a great steer so thank you.

I'm now fucking angry about this thread, but not totally apoplectically beside myself with rage. Feels about right that.
