Report

Last year, there was a 3 day window between coach and general where it was known it worked. I accept your rule going forward, but that was not the rule last year, and it was openly discussed after the sale here (there was still a resale coming up and there was no ban on discussing it back then, but it was then patched for the resale after all the fuss). If there was a rule against discussing hacks I would not have felt kinda betrayed by the hiding of it here cause if it's against the rules it's against the rules.   But going forward, do you mind helping me understand the difference between a tip and a hack?  I agree HOSTS is very much a hack, but: is running 30 chrome profiles a hack? what about the firefox 100 tabs thing? is that a hack? is using the back button to get as many tickets as you can fit in 10 minutes a hack? is using remote IPs and software designed for beating concert queues (aka: bots) a hack?   i'm not trying to start trouble, i actively use here and TheOtherPlace for exactly this kind of info so I want to know the rules and lines as i've no interest in being trouble. 

but strangely is supposed to be headlining Coachella unless he turned that down too at the last second. So yeah, wonder whats up.

i didnt list hugh cause I figure people wouldve thought it was def fake. But yeah, I dont know when Sabrina happens though. I would think the easiest is if they tie it in with her Christmas special thats coming in a few weeks. Easy promo.

Given the post above, and my history of attendance, I completely get that Glastonbury is special and that it transcends the experience and desire to be there that many other festivals engender. But to those who were unsuccessful this last weekend - you will get to be there in the future, perhaps in the resale early next year, and the festival shows no signs of ending any time soon, so the opportunity remains. No reason to fight about it this year, there are far worse things happening in the world and it's too late now to change the outcome. See you all in the fields 🩷

The hosts file hack has been public knowledge for many, many years. It works some, and doesn't others. People try it every year though, and because most years it doesn't work, (it was assumed to be patched) they obviously won't know if it will work on a given year until it works. (Which is a bit late for sharing.)   The site / efests has a good working relationship with the festival. You guys can share whatever tips you want to, and obtain your tickets however you want. But we can't be seen to be encouraging or advertising ticket hacks.  People run their own buying groups from here, on whatsapp, which are open to new signups before the day. I strongly recommend you sign up to one, as a lot of planning and discussion takes place in these, which is probably more sensible than discussing things in public. Again, many groups openly advertise as open to new signups, they're not some 'secret' organisation.
