      Also, Opti you're a genius. Another feature that would be nice is the ability to @ somebody in a post/thread, maybe get a msg about it if somebody @'s you.
      I'd love that feature too. Being able to ping people in the text.

      Although I could see some "troily types" finding ways to annoy people with that too

        Yeah, maybe some form of user controllers for muting/filtering/etc? Might work.

        Anyway Opti......

          I'm anti-racist personally, but one of the reasons SBR got so big was the freedom of speech here. And not being coddled like school kids.

          I have trouble knowing where the line is myself, but I lean toward tolerating all opinions as much as possible.

          Hoping new management does not want us to go all PC.

            The objection here is JJ as a whole.

                  SBR would have died years ago without JJgold, he singlehandedly saved it.

                      Since I have no idea who new management is, and why you’re keeping it such a secret. But I will say this if it’s a publicly traded or a reputable USA company you can bet they are not going to tolerate what’s said on this message forum, whether they are pc or not

                        You 'know' me, Opti. I despise PC with a passion, and certainly love irreverent humor (that's kinda obvious). ALWAYS want a wide latitude given to freedom of speech/varying opinions. I 100% agree with the overall philosophy of SBR to allow posters to "do their thing" expression-wise, and that has been great for SBR's growth (and would really suck and hurt SBR if that philosophy was curtailed & PC'd).

                        That's NOT what I'm talking about here w/Baldy; no, rather, what I'm talking about is speech that any reasonable, honest and truly objective person would conclude is clearly devoid of any insight, humor, satire or anything else other than blatant, rank RACISM ("Blacks are a horrible race and cause of all the problems and it'd be good for society if they weren't around"-- accurately paraphrasing Baldy). <---- that kinda shitt, and he's got many of them. Don't have to be a SJW or snowflake to realize that kinda BS is crossing a line, and I really don't think it's all that hard to identify from humor, satire, varying perceptions, etc... It's simply racist spewings.

                        BTW, speaking of censorship, lil 2.5"er cancelled/censored me in the "Stryder is my son" thread... whining to mods/getting my posts removed from the thread simply b/c he was butthurt by my clear-as-day JOKES @ him. (I wasn't infracted, hell... I've NEVER received an infraction... they were simply irreverent jokes, ffs.)

                        Bottom line: Getting rid of Baldy would be GREAT for SBR moving forward.

                          Not keeping it a secret. Simply been asked to not comment until an official announcement is made.

                          Plus staff really do not know much yet, or any of the answers to questions about future plans.

                          Hopefully that announcement comes very soon.

                                I agree. JJGOLD has kept me entertained over the years. I think JJ is the reason I left the MMA section for socializing and started posting more in the Players Lounge years ago.

                                FREE JJGOLD and FREE GRUDEN!!! Damn it!! ..

                                      JJGOLD belongs in the SBR HALL OF FAME one day in my book!!

                                      I always said give baldy real moderating powers and get him out of the SBR basement as file clerk and see what happens.

                                              I don’t see why they would be interested, considering the amount of tv, internet, social media, etc., commercials they run, it’s not like they need a new platform to get their name out there.

                                                    Where would you go Jayster? Stop lying.

                                                    You love those 7826 betpoints you have showing now. What is that worth $200 almost if you cashed out with Bitcoin? What other sports forum on the planet can give you that year after year?

                                                    Every SBR PRO should stop whining about this and that on SBR and just say THANK YOU!

                                                            I like the idea Opti and Hubie had about being able to ping or IM other posters.

                                                            Bring back Loooosssssshhhhhhaaaaaakkkkkkk.

                                                            Hopefully, we won't lose some of the key players, Genie, Opti, H-man, Spider SBR-Tony.... Each has been beneficial to the site.

                                                              I'm guessing all contest will eventually go through DraftKings, which will end up killing any growth for this site, as well as ending any draw for people that still come here.


                                                              Just look what they have done in the first 24 hours: odds suck, and sportsbook list sucks. This whole site was started because of the sportsbook review/list.

For the games and contests, they display everyone's picks... and they keep track of records. If people could see picks, traffic would immediately multiply. The games would need to somehow be adjusted to accommodate the changes but this is the #1 thing I would do to drive revenue.

                                                                  Your welcome.
