    **can we get some clarity on what exactly the posting rules are here?

    i'm more than a bit confused lately.

    i had a thread about sportsbook fees, it got deleted and i got this warning, yet people can post about current bonuses? perhaps it's ok to talk about depositing money to sportsbooks but not withdrawing

    When you're deliberately misspelling words to get it past the auto-filter, it's pretty clear that you're violating a policy. Don't discuss processing methods and you shouldn't have a problem.

    Mike, a few of us have noted that it seems that SBR staff is "out to get you"

    we've talked about it on some chats outside of SBR and have noticed quite a few unfair things that have happened.

    not sure why, after all the help, fun times, and time you've given to this forum

    I'd just be careful man

    ok great, thanks shari, had no idea it was just the processing method part of the post that was the problem

    archie, i think sbr staff is out to get ALL u.s. posters, we don't provide anything useful to them any longer and are just costing them money

    Posting rules should be; post winners & not lock threads because you want the play to get jinx for betting the opposite.

    The money is already offshore, so I don't think that a wager is a "financial transaction".

    It would be nice to talk about what Mike wanted to discuss, but basically do not mention P2P companies by name, or discuss the use of plastic cards, or mention those pieces of paper that can be sent in the mail when you cash out, and I think the rest is fair game.

    just seemed weird to me that people were discussing how much they were depositing into betphoenix to get different free plays, and that is allowable but methods of depositing aren't.

    how do they think the money is getting there? by carrier pigeon?

    I've gotten the same message from SBR, when I mentioned the "eastern confederacy". I guess its cause the transaction part is the only thing that is actually breaking a law as far as I understand.

    To OP - this forum is insanely biased towards the people paying for the advertising on the site. It's pretty easy to find other online sports betting communities (forums) who treat their members like members not like numbers.

    SBR is dedicated to brushing any past wrong-doings under the rug and to just proceed as normal.

    Frankly I'd be shocked if SBR didn't move this entire thread to the saloon in less then a hour.
