Did you get a ticket? What method did you use? Curious to know if this comment is coming from a place of genuine care or bitterness at not getting a ticket.

The problem that exists is that the ticket buying system has been able to be gamed for years and years now in varying degrees. As someone else said, what's the difference between gaming the system and cheating the system? And given the system has basically been exploited to some extent by people for so long, it means that there is almost zero sense of fairness for the average ticket purchaser. If you know that last year 1000's of people go tickets via a 'hack' last year (and people presumably have been getting tickets for years via this route), why should you be expected not to exploit the system to your advantage this year. Under the old system, you had various levels of gaming e.g.: - Group of 6 people with multiple devices/browsers - Syndicate of 60 people inputting each others credit card details depending on who gets through for each group with everyone running multiple devices/browsers - Syndicate of 60 people inputting each others credit card details depending on who gets through for each group with everyone running multiple devices/browsers and some tech savvy people running autorefreshers - People who have been using the hosts exploit for years At what point do you draw the line in the above? Clearly the bottom three all give people an arguably unfair advantage and are exploiting the system to various degrees. The system was never set up for someone to book tickets on behalf of a group that they aren't part of, but people quickly worked out that the system could be easily exploited to allow that. Under the new system, there are clearly again various levels of gaming the system. Seetickets should be doing better to prevent these, but again, can't really expect people not to exploit these vulnerabilities if they come across them given how much others exploited the old system...

Yeah. I will say that the brief period Healy was linked to Taylor Swift certainly did no damage to their commercial appeal. -
