Spark garbage for RWC

Jimmy from Titirangi

I went to a buddy's place to watch the All-Blacks on Saturday. He had the misfortune of buying the Spark "service".

It buffered a bit, but was bearable. Then in the second half, the buffering got worse. It was every five to ten seconds. My buddy said that was normal for the "service". He has VDSL with about 75Mb down and 25Mb up.

At one point, with about ten minutes left in the match, there was a message that said that the game was also available on channel 23 (or 25, I don't recall). We changed to the other channel only to find that the match was already over.

What utter garbage.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
