How much is SBR worth to you...?

[RogueScholar]

I'm just curious how valuable this community is to its members. I feel a strong personal connection to many posters here and feel compelled to make a positive contribution to this place. If SBR started charging a membership fee for the forum and chat room, I would gladly purchase a automatic renewal annual membership. How many of you feel the same way?

no offense, but those words couldn't have been any more gay than Pee Wee Herman staring at Michael Jackson

[InTheHole]

you're nuts. we r sbr

[mmike032]

just another bad habit, knock one monkey off and another jumps on

[buztah]

Followed Hanky here from majorwager. Hank is SBR. Where he goes many follow. I like SBR a lot but make no bones about it, if webber jets I jet. Later, pal.

Although I love this place...I am still unsure that I would actually pay to come to the site....I am weird like that.

[durito]

Some of the info available from a few posters is actually worth a lot to me.

The rest, not so much.

[RogueScholar]

Really, AMBy? Even if the fact that a small monthy fee would likely raise the posting quality by orders of magnitude and make the membership more exclusive and erudite?

[Panic]

They need to pay us. We are sitting here for free day in and day out. Bullshit.

[RogueJuror]

nothing really, this is just a past time

[Shortstop]

Why in the hell would you pay to join a forum??? Mind-boggling some of the stuff I read on here. Like Panic said, they should be paying us!!!

[Mudcat]

It is very valuable for the sportsbook and industry information. I'm not sure how much I would pay though. I have created my own network of contacts which is actually better and provides more comprehensive info than SBR forum.

But the forum is unquestionably a valuable supplement. And the forum was the original source of many of those contacts and it could reasonably be expected to provide more and keep the lifeblood flowing as time goes on.

But a dollar figure. Hmmmm . . .

I don't know. I'm not a cheapskate but I don't think I would pay anything. If SBR wasn't available, I could do my supplemental networking through free sites, I think.

(That's not getting into the probability that a lot of people would drop out as soon as there was a fee immediately making the forum less valuable.)

[MilfDriller]

Does Webba post here?

And, RogueJuror, you're gay.

[flyingillini]

I wouldn't pay a penny.

[Chi_archie]

I'd pay just to watch this Milf guy's antics... he is great entertainment.. and sharp..

reminds me of the Todd Packer character in the office....

SBR sign this guy up as a paid poster...

[pico]

eog is not that bad. if things gets ugly here...you'll see a major migration

[MilfDriller]

I'm already paid by SBR. And membership increased by 7.2% over last year's numbers during this same time period do to my posting.

I bring em in.

[RogueJuror]

driller dont be a fag, make a video

[Chi_archie]

driller driller driller driller... video video video video.....

[Chi_archie]

RJ, you ignoramous when was your last real video... don't rest on your laurels pal

[RogueJuror]

ignoramous? archie you're too smart for me, im a high school dropout

[poetwarrior41]

RS are you shitting us with this post? Do you know how much SBR charges per month to be rated an A+ book? Trust me, they dont need our money. If SBR charged a monthly membership fee, you would be talking to yourself.

[Chi_archie]

Juror, you are one of the top 10 most intelligent guys on this forum.... well rounded too and prob top 3 in diverse cultural experiences...which is the most valuable knowledge/experience...

now post a vid? seriously is your cam broken?

[pico]

They need to pay us. We are sitting here for free day in and day out. Bullshit.

ditto

[RogueJuror]

gave my camera away, bought one in the christmas specials but i didnt like it cause it was hdd, went to return it they said i couldnt return it cause it was nothing worng with it, so they gave me credit for it, now i gotta go pick up another one

[RogueScholar]

Poet, I was't suggesting this as an alternative business model by any means. I had a theory that the most enjoyable posters on here would also be the ones that attach the most value to their membership here. Just exploring ways to keep out the riff-raff as it were. Doesn't look like this theory will hold any water, but it won't stop me from pondering the issue.

Thanks for commenting though, I always like to hear what you have to say.

[purecarnagge]

none...

there are other forums and one in particular that pulls 30+ into live chat during primetime hours.

I disagree sir.

I feel some posters out there would pay a membership fee for the assistance factor to help retrieve their funds if and when it's applicable. A lot of players would probably look at it like like car insurance. It's something nobody really wants to buy but they know they gotta have it.
