Ok, there have been a few heated discussions about Internet Service providers on trap17 lately, about which ones are bad/good etc, so I thought I'd put it to the 3 billion or whatever pages indexed on google, to see what they thought. Now, I'm totally impartial to all of this, so I thought the fairest way possible was to type "*internet servicer provider* is crap" into google, and see what happened. heres what I found.

Note that these results are what happened when i typed "(service provider listed on left) is crap", with speech marks.

There are the most popular UK ones on there. sorry other countries! Why not post findings of your ISP on here, if you like.

EXAMPLE: | "Virgin Net is crap" |

UK online - 0
BT internet / BT yahoo - 0
Virgin Net - 0
V two one / V21 - 0
Freeserve - 3
BT broadband - 4
NTL - 63 (note that this includes NTL's TV service, not just internet - "NTL home" returned 0 results)
AOL - 321

I'd call that fairly conclusive. Please note that this in no way depicts which are better than others, Im just relying on facts that probably dont count towards anything in the scheme of things.

Thankyou all,

Vacant.

google is in no way connected with these results. Results not garanteed and are subject to change. Make cheques payable to Vacant. Are you still reading this? Well, ive run out of ideas now, go and read all the other post on this forum you fool.

I didn't know cussing was allowed. Wait it isn't if you read the Term & Conditions.

Ok, maybe it isnt completely fair. Ok, maybe it isnt fair at all. So I admit that...

Plus I'm not trying to discriminate against any person or company...im simply stating the facts, that particular phrases returned particular results.

Please dont try and use this information in your defence in an argument. It won't hold up in court either, trust me.

Have I now escaped blame? No, probably not.

You think im breaking the rules? I thought it was ok, after I read the google toolbar thread. http://www.trap17.com/forums/index.php?sho...t=15&#entry9057
