Further Complaints Received Concerning Fearless Sportsbook

In breaking news in the Fearless Sportsbook scandal, we have received a further complaint by another member of our community.

The player in question accused Fearless Sportsbook of a no pay over a grading issue where the player placed a bet which ended in a tie. Industry wide rules in the SBR Point Bookie world dictate that ties are graded as pushes and the bet is returned; however Fearless Sportsbook seem to grade ties as losses.

We will update when we receive further news on this latest scandal which is certain to have lasting repercussions in the SBR Point Bookie industry.

Players are not only urged to avoid this scam operation but to be wary of any future Sportsbooks opened under any alter egos. We especially urge players to be wary of Rainbow World Sports and Butt Plug Sports International.

You keep calling me a stiff and I've never stiffed anyone. I canceled UntilTheNDofTimE's bets because I felt like he cheated in the contest but I changed my mind a few hours after that and I decided I'd pay him if he won. I paid him after he won - 2 days later! You can't stiff someone before a match is over, it's impossible.

The only way I could be a stiff is if he won and I refused to pay him and that didn't happen at all. I payed him promptly after his match was over.

You just keep lying and lying and lying and I have no idea why.

[tacomax]

This was a total lie and you've never rescinded it:

This really is eating you up, isn't it? You tell me the lie in question and I'll contact SBRPFBR to ask them to consider a retraction.

I don't see any truth in that story but let's start here "we have received a further complaint by another member of our community" -

Who did you receive a complaint from?

Players urged to avoid Fearless Sportsbook

In yet a further shock to the SBR Point Bookie industry, we have received reports that Fearless Sportsbook (SBRPFBR rating F-) is the latest scam outfit to stiff another SBR poster. Our sources reveal that the player was partaking in a contest at SBR, unrelated to the scam operation, and Fearless Sportsbook did not agree with his tactics. Fearless Sportsbook then cancelled all outstanding bets and banned the player from the sportsbook. In a final outlandish act which may be unprecedented in the SBR Point Bookie industry history, Fearless Sportsbook then put the player on ignore.

When questioned about the stiffing, Fearless Sportsbook was unrepentant:

"That's my decision and if it hurts my reputation that's life. That's all I have to say."

This report will be updated when payment or communication with the book is reported by users. Players are currently being urged to avoid this scam operation.

What I'm asking is, who's complaint was this update about?

Read the post I linked to, brainbox.

Tell me the poster who made the complaint that you wrote about in the 6:44 PM update. I'm not reading anything, I'm not wasting time on this non-issue. Just tell me the poster and we can get this cleared up in a minute.

[tacomax]

OK, then. Don't read the link. Good idea not to waste any more time on it, though. I would have thought you would have preferred to sweep the whole sorry incident under the carpet rather than bringing it up again.

As an aside, you'd be my #2 points stiff after ijustwant2bpaid.

Who did you receive the complaint from? Why can't you answer that simple question?

How can I be a point stiff when I never stiffed anyone?

[tacomax]

Who did you receive the complaint from? Why can't you answer that simple question?

Why don't you tell me? You twice said that you returned those points:

http://forum.sbrforum.com/sbr-points/245939-players-urged-avoid-fearless-sportsbook.html#post2370943

And just because you may have returned points (I have no idea if you did or didn't) after being embarrassed into doing so does not stop you being a points stiff.

Tell me who complained or you're being exposed as an unreliable liar right now.

You posted your update at 08:44 PM, I returned the points at the following times:

MrMonkey - 8:19 PM
Robyn - 8:19 PM
smarmy - 8:18 PM
gummo - 8:18 PM
diogee - 8:17 PM
Bread - 8:17 PM
Hotdiggity11 - 8:16 PM

So, 25 minutes after I had finished sending all the points back you posted your made-up story. Of course you can't tell me who complained because no one did.

Then you say I was embarrassed into sending the points back because of your story? It was posted 25 minutes after I'd finished sending the points back. Unreal.

[Robyn]

I can't participate in this poll because I like both tacomax and daggerkobe.

[tacomax]

Where did I say that the story embarrassed into sending the points back?

You keep calling me a stiff and I've never stiffed anyone. I canceled UntilTheNDofTimE's bets because I felt like he cheated in the contest but I changed my mind a few hours after that and I decided I'd pay him if he won. I paid him after he won - 2 days later! You can't stiff someone before a match is over, it's impossible.

You voided the bet for no good reason. UntilTheNDofTimE went public. You threw your toys out of the pram. It later dawned on you that people thought you were stiffing scum. You were embarassed into paying UntilTheNDofTimE.

Is that about right?

[fearless]

I never stiffed anyone.

If you can't tell me whose complaint you were posting about in the 8:44 PM post, you're being exposed as a liar right now.

Fellas, fellas....everyone calm down. Tea party at our house.

Why did fearless put me on ignore but not taco? Not cool.

That's because he's stalking me and lying about me all the time. That's not cool.

[tacomax]

Robyn, he had me on "ignore" as well as you. I don't think he uses the forum ignore feature - I think he just closes his eyes when he sees one of our posts. Probably puts his fingers in his ears too.

If you'll stop lying about me I'll put you back on ignore and we can go our separate ways.

If it matters to you I'll leave off ignore, no problem. I'm sorry for being unreasonable before. I hate that about myself.

Interesting. I have actually been quite nice to fearless since the points stiffing scandal. I even attempted to call a truce, an effort that was ignored. And then he goes and votes for gmgrilz as the best female SBR poster, which emotionally shattered me.

Seriously? I'll give you all the points I have now but that's really nothing. I've already promised my poster of the year votes to zubzub.

If you're in the sweet 16 for poster of the year I'll vote for you every round.

[Robyn]

best or worst poster of the year?

[fearless]

best or worst poster of the year?

That's gonna be for best poster of the year of course.

You were in the top ten last year and you'll make the top 16 easily, I'm sure.

You and Bread should both win something great:

I'm sorry Robyn, I can't vote for you every round like I promised here. I have to vote for whoever I think is really better. I'll send you my points for today, I hope that helps to make you feel a little better.
