Why do some posts have green buttons in the bottom left corner and others red?

That tells you if someone is online or not.

if it turns to amber that means they're making a cup of tea.

Even if this was a cheat (and I don't agree that it is), isn't this forum generally cheating?

Notifying people before tickets are being advertised as is the case with Identity Theft this morning. When I got the post the page on Sky still stated "find out more", and it is only when you click through via one of the other links that you can access the seats.

Other posts come from Total Film, Heat etc, fine that you don't need to buy magazines etc, but most of these come from mailing lists that not all in the group subscribe to, so in theory you are cheating all the people do subscribe but don't get the tickets.

Or there are the cases where you do need a newspaper or magazine but people try there luck (and often succeed) anyway.

IanS325, has, pretty easily, found a way to see what is coming soon on links that are active (either that or Sky need to hire a new web developer), if we are calling him a cheat perhaps we should look at what we all do.

I agree with most of the sentiment above but would highlight that the appearance of the SKY bookings in the drop down menu is usually reflected in the previous page within a relatively small period of time.

On the whole anyone with a SKY account can choose to keep checking in and out as often as they want and have the same chance as any other SKY customer of getting in early using the main site.

As I understand it you would need a bit of computer savvy to actually get access to what IanS325 has found.

One of IanS325 posts which was removed seemed to imply that he could book the tickets as well as see them this far in advance - this may not be the case and I did apologise to him in an earlier post if this is was not so - he did not choose to comment as to whether I was mistaken or not though.

Perhaps this other member got the same impression?

No one Needs a bit of Computer Savay to Find out whats coming
everytime sky add new film for screening simply add another digit to there screenings webpage. Its Not Rocket Science. I have not found away getting tickets early wish i was that clever. They release information on g.i joe this morning that number was 10103. When they release information on jack the giant slayer that was 10102. All did was go to the more info page on the ticket booking page and and changed the number on the end. Its there in plain site.

Thanks IanS325 - this may not be rocket science for you but if you had not talked me through this there is no way on earth I would have made the connection - I thought you were some sort of high tech computer whizz as you included reference toward some feature of Google Chrome in another of your posts. I am not computer savvy in any shape or form and am still finding my feet doing the most basic things.

I do think your original post could perhaps have been better worded as if I remember correctly it was headed something like 'there has never been a better way to book SKY tickets early' and led me to have the wrong impression in the first place.

I have apologised previously if any misunderstanding existed and offer same again now.

I posted this earlier but Tickets are still available

Yes it's a "theatre" event (and it's in the "right place(s)) which is why I've put it here and not on Codes only, but given there may well be a fair few of you in London that might read this, and can get to Islington in the next hour or so .......
