    Best advice to all the ghosts on here lately and a suggestion for SBR.
    Wanna be taken seriously?
    Wanna prove you aren't ghosting?
    Pony up a measly $100 and go pro you twisted fukks.

    Ghost accounts are out of control on here the last few months.
    SBR is barely doing anything about it.
    Just a couple bans to draw traffic and attention with a few threads.
    Makes you think how many of these accounts are actually being ran by SBR staff.

    Only real way to tell if you're legit or not is to post up and take advantage of SBR's points program.
    I was stubborn for a minute and refused to do it a while back because of the "Donation", but the bottom line is you have to be CARSELLER to come out behind on the investment/fee for your membership. It's almost impossible not to make a few bucks off of it. So if you have no problem giving money to charities who pay millions of dollars to their CEO's then wtf are you waiting for?

    Also, I think SBR should have a ROOKIE status for any poster with under let's say maybe 500 or 1k posts. They should not be able to create threads.

    This again lessens the amount of ghosts we will have to deal with.
    Some of the shit we have to look at on here lately is just plain ridiculous, and I've seen quite a few ppl posting across the street lately instead of here.
    I went over there to say hello to our chubby little friend Bubbles and saw quite a few familiar names over there that I haven't seen posting on here lately.
    We need those guys back here. We need to straighten up PT.
    Let's figure something out and clean this shit up, we've got MLB right around the fkn corner.

      Even better for the idea JJ, how about if you pony up the $100 to go pro, the 500 or 1k miimum post gets waived and you are allowed to make threads immediately?

        Everybody is suspect but who cares, you worry too much about this stuff. Just post your MLB play of the day with the dance crowd and DJ and log off.

              Maybe I could open my Bet Islands account with my first $500?

              Why not just make it a mandatory Bet Islands account for $1000?

                          The minimum post idea is a good one. Also a probationary period if you are a trolling retard you get banned quickly during the probation period. At least make these ghost acct knuckleheads do a little work. I have no clue why people make ghost accounts but it sounds like it's ramoant

                              going PRO exposes your personal info and CC# which is -EV imo
                              unless you can cash in on sportsbook cash or you really like pizza, there is no point of doing it

                              with that said, now that I'm back in states, I might get myself one of those fake prepaid cards and turn PRO with a fake name

                                        SBR does not take your CC info so better think of another excuse... If you donate to St Jude's, for example, you do so directly.

                                            I've designed sites with a payment system myself. It's not my place here to ask you what you guys do or don't do- that's your business. Just stating my opinion about this matter.

                                                feel like I've heard this countless times, no rookie status shit is ever going to happen. why would someone who pays 100 bucks have to wait to create threads. none of that shit will happen, PT just needs to be cleaned up on the bumping of old threads and all is well.

                                                    I will go pro once I get a new laptop or fix my old one, don't have the cash at the moment

                                                    Too much going on between poker and the sportsbook to do on my phone

                                                    I take my 6 points a day to the book in hopes of hitting a longshot parlay to renew with, wouldn't feel as bad not having a computer than lol

                                                        There will be a lot of Pro's you've never heard of because non-US posters can now go Pro for free as soon as they register. That's what a lot of the smart ones are doing these days.
