Hmmm. I'd say that *most* operators are dishonest thriving scum. I'd gladly take most of them to the cleaners.

Yes but do two wrongs make right? If empties are a wrong that is? I personally think they are but that doesn't mean I won't do em

I see what your saying. I personally blame the manufacturers, do you think if someone at the manufacturer learnt of an empty would they think twice about doing it?

Got me thinking. Maybe?

What are peoples thoughts on when you give someone a tenner and they give you change for a score? If its Asda/Tesco etc you'd keep it right? I would, but if its a small family run shop and the 80 year old lady gives you too much i'd give it back personally, i once changed 40 coins in a spoons and the bitch manageress gave me 60 notes, sweet, score for nothing, next visit she demands it back which i do, visit after barred, we did smash the machine for really good money in the previous months, maybe if i'd been more honest i'd have got a few more weeks in there but she was looking for any excuse i reckon.



As for machines, when you start doing things that change the behaviour of the machine thats when the problems start, i'm no saint but i'd never tool, get caught once and your tarnished for life.

So you wouldn't consider the SSTT? Self service tesco tool? They're probably getting done.

Side Note:
Nothing better than mugging B&Q off at the self severice checkouts. We've saved loads since they employed 1, 16 year old to supervise 8 self service checkouts lol.


My bad. But B&Q has cost me dear recently lol.

No, definitely not.

I don't believe in God of any kind.
Death is the final word. Game over, end of existence.

But as for fruit machines, I'll stick to playing them.
I've dabbled in the tooling side, being just a lookout, but involved nonetheless.

What about you Betch?

Yes mate I've done it for a while ages ago spoon boomerang slottos. Bell fruit box. But not done it or had owt to do with it for years now. Not saying I wouldn't if it was easy enough cos end of the day it's money to me and I don't give a fuck. I draw the line at old ladies and that as I too believe fruits are dishonest enough and just see it as robbing from robbing cunts who deserve whatever they get

afaic and also legally speaking , there's eff all wrong with a legit empty. operators believe that they have a god given right to milk the general populace if they have a permit and pay amld. it's this little bit of irony that i really appreciate when an empty surfaces.

as far as plugging is concerned , well, i would'nt want to get caught however .....i'd be a hypocite to chastise anyone else for doing it.

tooling is plain and simple theft. it fucks operators off a shed load more than someone doing a legit empty ....that i can guarantee!

i've had to tidy up after toolers plenty of times, 1 thing i would say is that there are two definite types, it's easier to tidy up after a clever one.

I knew it! Mr PLUGSY!

I have to say I disagree with the knowing an empty being like theft theory, its not. However, if we 'knew' a cash machine was dispensing 20's instead of 10's and we took advantage of it, that is also from discovering something which is not supposed to happen and that is theft - at least in the police's eyes and we could argue about banks overcharging us until we're all blue in the face, they won't have it.

The less said about professional horse punters at the moment the better...

Clever or been told how to do it lugs. Ok the only clever ones are the ones who work it out. Not the sheep who just drain what they can when they get the info. I would say I'm of a higher intelligence than some “never tooled" clever folk

appreciate that betch, but i meant clever as in not making a mess of a machine like the twats that smash their way in by which ever neanderthal method suits them.
