this is it concert tickets - was it an elaborate scam?

[Datroot]

I managed it ok - I got tickets to three concerts - I did have a presale code though for one of them.  I didn't have any problems - my whole office got them too without too many problems.  If you live outside the UK, you may have found it more difficult.

[speeddemon]

i'm in the uk and it was pretty much impossible. you got tickets for 3 concerts? i thought you were only allowed to buy 2-4 per household.

The allocation was 4 per concert.  I  had two tickets for 3 separate dates.

Have you never tried to buy tickets for a popular gig before?

Shit happens, get over it.

i'm starting to think your a Troll. you don't contribute nothing positive to this website/HOAX investigation... you need really stay the fuck off this site. everyone HATES you.

That was not very nice at all!!!

I tried to no avail myself and was unable to get tickets here in Canada

You're either MJ or Conrad Murray, only those in the know got tickets. Only kidding :-)

Just a general notice about rudeness and stirring things up:

We have been sending out quite a few warnings the last couple of days to members who showed inappropriate behavior towards other members.  We notified them of measure going to be taken if they don't change their behavior, and we ended up having to ban members.  Note that we had a few new members who posted a lot of rude messages in just a couple of hours, it's perfectly clear what they were up to.

I'd like to ask you all to ignore rude behavior and instead of replying to it, notify us through PM.  That way those posters who are out to stir things up won't succeed and peace is kept on the boards.

Remember: The best way to annoy your enemy is to ignore him...

thx Mo,

my thread got completely cannibalised by some members.

i thought this might have been an interesting topic to discuss.

You seem so much more pleasant now that it's over. <---  :lol:  :lol:  :lol: !

I really am mostly pleasant. Not nearly as bitchy as I come off I can assure you.
 I'm actually a pretty whiny wimp really lol.

Helz nah! You don't sound like a wimp at all! :lol:

@speeddemon
Sorry.  
I guess I'll contribute now. Good thread topic.
Here where I live, It's hard to get tickets to local shows!
It's most likely that people were snatching 'em up like hotcakes,
So I imagine the ticket companies couldn't keep up. It happens all the time.
If there was any scamming, It was probably the company selling you the tickets.

Yes as for contributing to the topic at hand - a couple years ago I tried to get Ozzfest tickets. It was the year they were giving them out free but you still had to go through a ticketing site (LiveNation). They hadn't prepared at all for the horrendous amount of traffic they'd get and the servers went down. Any time they'd come back up they'd go right back down again. It went on like that for a long, long time! And I do imagine the number of Ozzfesters is probably lower than those wanting This Is It tickets for sure!

This same kind of thing even happened to me back in 1996 or 97 with Backstreet Boys tickets  :lol:  :lol:

That probably esplains it! I'm a "Fiery Sagattarius".
Meh. Lucky. You get a fish, I get a half-man, half-horse archer thingy. :lol:

Didn't those Hannah Montana tickets sell out in like 5 minutes?
Nobody likes her! Imagine the feedback TII got!
You probably must have been an internet GOD if you got tickets outside of Europe.

As there was no concerts in view maybe the tickets were sold virtually. Just a few people had tickets to make things credible but the majority are virtual tickets..maybe.

i'm starting to think your a Troll. you don't contribute nothing positive to this website/HOAX investigation... you need really stay the fuck off this site. everyone HATES you.

Um no. Try again.

You, who has multiple accounts. Yeah Game Player, I know your game. Lots of other people do too.

I have disagreed with several posts from the person you are attacking. That doesn't make them inherently invalid and certainly does NOT mean everyone "HATES" them. Get over yourself. Seriously.

Lol I also remember when you had a fit because I used the word fuck. Aren't you a lil hypocritical there buddy?

I'm not Game Player. I'm just using her Avatar who is actually La Toya Jackson douchebag. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT before trying to ''debunk'' someone and trying to be a smart ass, i'm starting to think your MJ 92 Believe...

[Ijustcantstoplovingu]

I live in the UK and did get presale code but was unable to get any tickets the legitamate way.

So as last resort got mine on ebay in UK , paid £386 for two £75 tickets, would have been happy with that had the concerts happened, however, didnt get a refund from the seller when things went wrong they said they were waiting for their refund from concert promoter!   I guess thats another life lesson    :roll:   Never mind, lesson learned, if MJ comes back that will be enough for me  Its only money after all and other things are more important.
