    You Guys Interested In Minor League Type Forum??

    Basically mods would have the power to put more of the beginners in there until you show what you got and have what it takes to be a good poster and joining the major leagues and most powerful forum on the internet. The big boys on SBR though would be allowed to post in there and give words of encouragement and or advice in becoming a major leaguer. It is being thrown around the office but they most likely will not go for it unless many guys support it here.

    This is the Broadway of posting

    too many sub-forums as it is. another forum would be more buttons to push. Us American's don't want that.

    Players Talk IS the minor leagues.

    All sharps are part of private/invite only forums elsewhere.

    Farm systems for each major league poster?

    First rule of sharp forums is that you do not talk about sharp forums

    Instead of banning posters, put them on probation. They would only be able to respond in Seaweed & Big Bear threads

    There's a lot of big bettors here and what happens on all the big Saturday and Sunday's a rookie comes into a thread and call us one of these big bettors lots of money because of some silly type of post or asking advice on a game

    Some guys have cost me thousands through the years because of some sort of outlandish post that threw me off

    Lots of hustlers in SF. I remember there were chess tables set up on Market Street near Union Square and highly skilled guys played for money. I brought a World Junior Chess champ(a grandmaster) once and walloped those jokers for cash. Too bad it wasn't for much but those clowns got taught a lesson they'd never forget

    are you surprised?...that's what happens when quantity is valued over quality and short term over long term growth.

    The name of the game is accountability. If you aren't verified through documented plays, pics or vids you should be relegated to the minor league forums.

    Giant at least you tried for the record SBR squashed the idea and it's business as usual for all of you to enjoy all of the forums at SBR

    Posting-wise, we're all minor leaguers compared to you JJ. You'd be rather lonely.

    We're terrible role models.

    New posters that call us losers and tell us to fuk off get promoted. The ones who think we're awesome get the boot.

    As a Pro, I would like to be a scout for the farm system and make recommendations of who is ready to hit the big show.
    What is the mascot for the minor league?
