    Adding Infractions for 'Points Begging'.
    3 infractions and you lose all of your points available and ability to gain points for 1 month.

    What do you think?

    All opinions welcome.

        What's the definition of begging? What if you ask for a loan.

          I'm only replying in this thread because I was told that I would get five points.

                This would be a great rule. Make it happen. I would be happy to snitch and report all the posts.

                      I don't have to take any points from anyone because I totally agree. The begging needs to stop here. I don't like that at all.

                        "Begging" for and "Asking" for points are the same, correct?

                          If SBR were going to do it, why ask what others think. Just do it. Who likes a point begger?

                            Got to be the same thing. Otherwise people would be "asking" all day.

                                  My only complaint is the 3 infractions part. Should make it 1. Otherwise it is a good, overdue idea.

                                  That's begging.

                                    mmike I totally agree with you there needs to be a no tolerance level on this.

                                        Shortstop you are a beggar. You qualify.

                                        Put this rule into effect!

                                          Mudcat I agree also with you. I think there should only be one warning and that is it when comes to this issue.

                                                I really want that SBR Tommy Bahama shirt, so if you could give me all of the points from the beggars that would be greatly appreciated.

                                                      I am recovering from back surgery so if the sympathy factor helps I would like to throw that out there as well.

                                                        If everybody would just give me one point that would go a long way.

                                                          I support anything that would make the forum more boring and cause people to be more bland.

                                                            I think pts should not be regulated by SBR, you all have enough to do with books complaints, contest grading advancements in "the brand", product improvement, forum moderating etc don't burden yourselves everyone here are big boys even though we all don't act like it all the time I like the play at your own risk rule

                                                              On a serious note, how did your back surgery go. My doctor is suggesting it for me. I'm REAL reluctant.

                                                              Thanks!

                                                                Make it 1 warning and then penalization. Anyone too stupid/greedy/pathetic to not get it after the first time doesn't deserve points in the first place.

                                                                  Depends on what your issue is. I had a ruptured disc so I really had no other option.

                                                                  So far, so good but it is tough to tell for sure as I am still hopped up on pain meds.

                                                                  But, I can already tell that my pain from before is gone. It is amazing what they can do now a days.

                                                                  It is not like back surgery in the old days. I had it on Monday and I feel better now than when I went in.
