    how did all of costa rica know and not one person at sbr knew.

    i knew 2 weeks ago

    people from other books were warning their guys if they had money there to try and get it out because they were going under

    but somehow people at sbr didnt?

    Oh, it's everywhere.

    It hit two-plus two as well.

    I'm surprised that as good businessman as John is, he didn't have a better plan in place to deal with this kind of a situation. They are on absolute lockdown. Nothing, not a peep.

    I'm not just calling out John and Bill on this BetIslands fiasco, I'm calling them out on their integrity and credibility.

    They've completely sold out to the highest bidder.

    Milmike I do know what you post is truth even if I haven't seen it with my own eyes. Too bad I can't say the same about anyone at SBR other than one. And She's being very quiet right now which I don't blame her for one bit.

    It seems you're right, which makes me believe they either think this will blow over, which is possible. Or they don't their feet held to the fire because they can't handle a bit of heat. Either way, this black eye won't go away quickly.

    LMAo i Bet Islands was a B book and was even a C after they basically closedup nad stole everything what the fukk does an A rating from this place mean.

    Hey look I told you all the whole time I was here not to trust this place in terms of their ratings systems. But people dont listen to guys when they think they know more than the other guy.

    Well now that this shit has finally hit the fan it might smarten a few people up.

    We will see if SBR John is close to what the Shrink was, because the Shrink promoted forum books for over a decade and had no less than hlf a dozen out and out steal post up funds, sometimes by the same guy under different names from the same forum players over and over again.

    So if SBR John really wants to reach legendary status he needs about 5 more books his site promotes to steal from a few thousand more players.

    Opie, you're losing me.

    Her loyalties? If the story is true, then it's obvious her "loyalties" are with posters and customers. Even if she tried to help one person, that's one more than SBR_John, Lou, or Dozer tried to help during this BI mess.

    Why would you object to that, or question her loyalty?

    I was simply making a follow-up joke to Archie's GayLive joke.(I'm pretty sure Archie's was a joke)

    I read that thread. There wasn't anything there. To assume it was anything more would be purely speculation.
