The SBR Forum is Dying

JIBBBY · 10-10-18, 10:00 PM

Forum hotshots can be entertaining reads at times.. I can't lie..

Love the look at me posters that fabricate or hide their losses and claim they only win all the time is what I'm talking about.. Gotta love it!!!

They all eventually get exposed...

I started dozing after first 5 and it’s helping my insomnia....so I kept going.

I don’t have any idea who you are but you know a lot about me. Might want to examine your life.

I hadn't noticed that there are less threads, but I have noticed improved content on the forum. If mods banning certain posters is the reason for this, then I'm all for it.

This^^^it seems things was more lieniant in summer cause nothing was going on so alot more crap got posted and mods let most of it ride...now its back to where it should be, which is talking sports and sports plays..if i wanna read nonsense and argue ill go to the saloon or the politics forum, so im totally fine with the way players talk is

MinnesotaFats · 10-10-18, 10:41 PM

We need a hot caper we can ride

Or something like a daily consensus SBR pi k we can ALL tail

franklee168 · 10-10-18, 11:38 PM

Where's kickles when you need her/him?

gauchojake · 10-11-18, 12:04 AM

There are more things pulling at our attention. Kids, dogs, hot bitches wanting to fukk, etc etc etc. It's hard to maintain a solid forum presence these days. That said there are a lot more gambling picks, a lot fewer obvious tout ghost accounts, and more media content produced by SBR.

Not enough conversation.

Theres been like 10 posts in the past hour.

This is supposed to be the busy season.

SBR needs to let the banned guys back in. They stir things up and make this place more entertaining.

This forum worships the worst cappers because they " post a lot"

It's awful

Why don't you lazy penetrates find Astro's new account who we've all known and has been confirmed by the rooster sucker Chino

$HungrySS · 10-11-18, 12:22 AM

This forum is like a chatroom from 1997. I started on here a few years back then started using Twitter. Much easier to navigate and been following the same people for awhile. Variety of different sports and books all in one spot. Technology is evolving and this forum is standing still.

It is nothing like how it used to be back in the day. I miss the days where Tsoprano was competing with Creditwagering, there used to be good daily drama and lots of action going on. I check in from time to time but there is nothing going on here anymore.

cincinnatikid513 · 10-11-18, 04:46 AM

i hope sbr doesn't turn into sears

Itsamazing777 · 10-11-18, 05:14 AM

Noone wants the recently bammed posters back. Its the ones from about 2-3 years ago that were good

jjgold · 10-11-18, 05:17 AM

I did a 4 year time search

It might be a little slower from time to time meaning playerstalk but overall numbers not that bad

The site as a whole has really gown and that is the bigger picture, lets not forget most other sites basically done now

WE WILL WORK HARD, although guys that call site out too not contribute a lot

It would be only fitting for this to be moved to the saloon.

Did you have something to do with the disappearance of Nicky? What about the warrior clan?

Having a trigger-happy mod moving legitimate threads doesn't help either.

When JJ and I were eating Chinese food with him in Montreal he revealed to us his plan. He has executed his plan perfectly. Do not think for one second Nicky is not here with us. He posts daily, just under different handles ,for security reasons.

What was going on 9-2-15 that there were 88k viewers online at 830 AM?

Traffic at almost exact same level as this time last year according to Alexa.

Look up the definition of 'alarming'.

I don't think traffic is the issue here: It's the interaction and discussion which makes the board fun (Posters Posting). Fun is key because losing money is never fun.

Drama and Entertainment are necessary. Without either the board will not be optimal. How do you balance Drama and Entertainment to be most effective? It's needed but when is it to much? When is it to bad? Well, you need a moderator who understands this. A moderator who has nothing else to do in their life but read this forum (players talk) and gauge the temperature of the members in real time all the time. Knowing the members and Not holding personal grudges against anyone. The key is not just having any moderator who has this time on their hands but a moderator who has interpersonal or people skills; who can control emotions and remain patient during most difficult times without overreacting to criticism. Last but not least, this moderator should be thinking ahead for nearly every decision made. Always predicting what the response will be and thinking of how that response will be handled. Always believing he/her is making any and all decisions in the best interest of SBRForum.

With that said SBR Forum is really good as is. The message board can use more drama and entertainment though, IMO. A ton of people love to read that chit. Sit back in the office or on the couch and get some laughs from it. And most of us aren't going to be seriously following the sports picks or opinions of anyone else. But many of us readers will follow the drama seriously just like following a tv soap or tv drama.

And I'm not saying this is easy. It's not.

Wish all of you the best.

Good Luck
