    If you were a forum owner..
    How much would you pay SBR posters to post and which ones you would? Keep in mind this is a business so there is no infinite number of cash to give around.

    For example if I was an owner I would have allocated $1000 every month for paid posters. How would you distribute this money? Give $100 to 10 posters or give all $1000 to one poster?

    Let's see how you can fare as forum owners if you had to be in charge of paying for posters. It's not as easy as some of you think it is.

    Quality not quantity..

    When myself and Fishhead were in top form,, the trolls and know-nothings got in line behind us.. there were less threads and more money being made.. but traffic was still high

    now you have the trolls and know-nothings battling for power.. stupid threads being started by very bad posters at a very high rate..

    $333 Fishhead
    $333 Pavyracer
    $333 King

    This would straighten things out real quick

                      I am a forum owner, just starting out. But my personal preference I will go for the quality of the posts not the quanity. You can post a whole bunch of nothing and nothing gets done. Or you can have quality posts that help everyone make money and being very informative, that is what I want! I don't want a JJ making nude videos always losing bets posted and bringing nothing to a forum like he does here. He is the type of person that I would not want to give my money too!
                      If it seems to good to be true it usually is!!

                      I have a natural instinct to exploit market ineffieciencies!!

                        I'd pocket the thousand, as the people currently behaving like paid posters do not generally contribute anything of value. Creating a dozen worthless threads a day does nothing for me.

                          When did you become Carpe Dime part two? It's so weird because you don't seem as big of a useless tool as Carpe Dime.

                            Some good ideas being thrown around here. Some people will spread it around, some will give it to one poster and some will just keep the money in their pocket.

                                    If I own a forum I want to attract low-IQ posters and promote as much losing as possible at my sponsor books.

                                    SBR has already got the formula for that. Hire jjgold.

                                        if you just wanted volume, you could pay tpowell 1 cent per post, and SBR would have thousands of extra posts per day.... of course everyone else would just leave

                                              There is another forum that at 1 point had 28 paid posters. I think they have less than 10 now. Paid posters do not work. I'd rather pay some of those serial posters NOT to post. Thats how I would use the cash.

                                              Paid posters and ghosts are deceptive to sponsors and boring to the regulars. We only take the best books as sponsors. They come back year after year and sponsor the site and contests because they know we are on the level. So if you want to put on your forum owner hat keep those things in mind.

                                                    I've been anal raped by both the SBR casino and sportsbook the last two weeks. Seriously I'm 1 - 7 in my last 8 in BeatThePrick. I went from 80th place to 430th. I joined the MW bowl contest and posted my bowl picks today. I just cant win anything at this jinxed place.

                                                        John, I was thinking that as well. There are several posters here I'd pay to get rid of. Then again, if I was running the forum, I'd simply warn them, and if they didn't get the message...
