Should we rough up the ex EOG paid posters?

pavyracer · 02-24-09, 04:51 PM

I am offering to pull my pants down for them so they can rape me. Is this a good gesture SBR John for the vultures that left us cold and dry and now are coming back?

Mudcat · 02-24-09, 04:53 PM

Case-by-case basis.

I would not judge them on account of being paid posters. I'm sure there are many people here who only wish they could be that.

Many people here would be hypocrites to bash others for being paid posters. Whenever discussions come up here about who should be a mod, it almost never ends up being about mod qualifications. Most posters want people to be hired on the basis of posting a lot.

I don't like the paid poster concept but, from what I've seen, I'm in the minority. Whatever.

But if those ex-paid posters happen to be STIFFS or shills I say definitely, treat them with the same minimal respect they treat people they bet with or lie to to pry money from.

I vote for a campfire at my place with Mudcat on guitar while we all sing Kum Ba Yah. Plenty of beer will be on hand. Who's in?

Mudcat...one of the most solid and underrated posters at SBR.

sickler · 02-24-09, 05:06 PM

John, you're too forgiving.

They were giggling like schoolgirls back then, thinking their departure would sink the SBR forum, which in turn would take money from your pocket. Never try to fukk with a man's business.

Of course the joke was/is on them.

pavyracer · 02-24-09, 05:06 PM

What the fcuk does a paid poster from EOG has to offer here besides trying to land another gig at SBR? Do you think he/she is going to provide anything of value gamblingwise that we don't already have? We already have jjgold and Bread as paid posters hitting a combined 25% in their picks for the year. Enough with the paid posters. Let's attract some minds that will not post for cash.

Bread · 02-24-09, 05:09 PM

15% Pavy. Keep up son.

Agreed. When we set up the SBR forum we went straight to Mudcat for help. Very solid. Did a great job.

SBR certainly got the better of the deal. Guys like Gyno (imgv) will not be coming back. They are posting for free and have been told they might be paid again if they will stay and post for free. Very odd but glad it works there. I'm sure some feel a little silly they thought it was a long term deal and they were on a "team". We should make them feel welcome I mean its a forum kind of easy to be cool.

AgainstAllOdds · 02-24-09, 05:10 PM

SBR is the best gambling forum in the world.

Their forums flop and they jump ship and land here.

Most are welcome but I will not have guys like Raiders, Jman and other forum cronies posting at sbr.

Not on my watch johnny.

jjgold · 02-24-09, 05:12 PM

Who cares who posts here, I am more worried about having to pay over 70k in gambling debts off.

smitch124 · 02-24-09, 05:13 PM

Did someone say beer?

Wrigley · 02-24-09, 05:33 PM

John I say you batted a 1.000 when you posted your list months ago

There were many many more. Posters I never even heard of that came out later claiming they were paid and then laid off. A poster called yummy and JeffJones who knows how long the list is or was. Some post for favors to extend their gambling debts. But I'll continue to contend there is no value in it. I remember a Raiders thread "What do you think Shrink ate for breakfast?". I mean thats just toe curddeling bad but thats what you get when guys have a quota, official or not.

sickler · 02-24-09, 05:51 PM

I will say shrink is a very generous man. Some of those former paid posters don't have much posting talent.

(or shrink is a bad judge of talent...)

pavyracer · 02-24-09, 06:01 PM

Hey...one man's garbage is another man's treasure

chance · 02-24-09, 06:15 PM

Once you pay someone you get false loyalty.

People like the Devil contribute a lot but when you stop paying someone with any level of self worth they piss off.

Met with Devil several times,he has forgotten more about this business than most of the people on Johns list will ever know.That is where Shrink ****s up,not keeping the ones that actually know something.

chance · 02-24-09, 06:47 PM

Exactly!!!! The Devil actually knows about gambling. Most of the paid posters/mods do not know anything about gambling.

Agree. It's like selling out for a few crummy nickels and pennies. Especially selling out to the worst forum, that place is terrible. Toss em' under the bus....

Has raiders ever made a non filler post?

flyingillini · 02-24-09, 08:10 PM

EOG was paying posters $120.00 a month to post.

pavyracer · 02-24-09, 08:13 PM

Good Lord Illini! I make $120 in 3 hours at my job. And 2.5 of them are reading paid poster crap at SBR.

fiveteamer · 02-24-09, 08:17 PM

lol $120

Unreal, Jesus Christ tried to get the posters paid more, but failed. God Bless.

jjgold · 02-24-09, 08:21 PM

I was paid at EOG and Kenny stiffed me $400 in my last month of service, he is the biggest stiff in the industry. EOG is done.

I think we should be cool with them. They said some silly things about how their team was going to bury SBR and TheRx. Didnt happen or even come close. As I said then, you cant pay posters to post. The conversation becomes coma inducing.

Those who come back we should be cool with.

I believe in the high road myself.

SexyMit · 02-24-09, 08:29 PM

For a MOD you sure aren't around that much! No offense but what exactly are you suppose to be doing?

The General · 02-24-09, 08:34 PM

Hi SM. I will be assisting in dispute resolution with 7 yrs experience and moderating the board. I will be trying to handle a project that has been asked of me also. I will try and do whatever I can to assist SBR.

Take care

LOL!!!! Man if you dont think thats funny nothing ever will be!!

And it’s true too. The SBR staff works and leaves the posting to the posters. SBR almost always gets their man but for a while could not get the General's services. You will not see him being a posting machine but he will make valuable and significant contributions.
