    SBR Staff PLEASE READ!!

    As a member of this site for almost four (4) years, I am VERY DISAPOINTED with SBR. What I am about to say is not just a one -time event but an observation of almost four (4) years. Ban me, beat me or whatever; it is not a major concern of mine. I will still collect my pay check each week.


    I sent a Moderator (Whom &Why is completely immaterial at this point) a private message. I followed up my private message with a posting he next day on one of his posts to ensure the moderator received the private message. The next day I sent another courtesy message through SBR’s email system again to ensure he received my original private message. Now I know all Moderators are busy doing their required work load by SBR. However, if they have the time to post on the boards etc, I see no reason why a quick generic “Message received and will be back in touch as soon as possible” message within a forty-eight (48) hour time period is so hard. Having no type of response is not only personally irritating but completely unprofessional as a business standard!

    Easy solution: Moderators & staff members should have a set-up in their internal email/private message accounts with a generic response box (like the icon set-up SBR has) with pre-made blurbs. A generic response then could be sent within a few seconds to clients or other staff members once a private message or email has been opened. A response should be sent even if the email must be forwarded to another staff member due to his /her expertise on any given matter.
    Communications is an extremely useful business tool for both internal and external usages!!!

    ***Prior to posting this, I have checked my posts, private messages and my personal email account associated with my SBR account and STILL NO RESPONSE!





    Is part of SRB’s business plan to:


    Allow abusive language (both written and videos)

    Allow personnel to be threatened

    Allow minors to participate in a gambling site

    Promote sexual harassment

    Allow pornographic photos and videos

    Maybe it is time to re-evaluate what this site has turned into. SBR started out as a great site with the potential to SET THE STANDARDS IN THE INDUSTRY not fall way behind the standards as it seems to be doing on its present course.

    Ladies and gentlemen of SBR, my intent is not to bash the site but merely bring to your attention what this site has become over the last few years. Your potential is unlimited in this industry. Do not forget what your original conception was for your corporation. I truly think you have strayed a little from your original plan. However, you have the competent staff to rebound and gain what is rightfully yours!

    Best Regards,

    Swaindexter

    no its not their business plan, but i think they realize its a gambling forum and are pretty lenient. Most of the bad shit gets put in private zone anyway. now go grab a tissue.

    Why would you clowns be asking him to leave?

    He offers a legitimate complaint and did so in a courteous manner. He sent a Mod a PM and didn't get a response...what's so bad about requesting that be addressed?

    its the manner in which he did it. He wrote this long ass post instead of just saying "mods check your E-mail/pm" or something. my favorite part is when he wrote out a number "four(4)" hahahahah. I know its good writing but come on.

    Thank you for posting this swain. I have been here for quite some time and I can relate to your frustration. Occasionally I get a mod not to respond to my PM's. What I do I make sure I send it to 4-5 mods so at least one will read it and respond. They are usually very courteous and respond to my PM's in a reasonable time. Here is another trick I learned. If someone is posting pornographic material, threatening other posters, promoting sexual harassment, etc use the report button (little red triangular button) and report it. Most mods here used to be be regular posters and have some level of common sense to issue warnings to the violators of SBR policy. I know nothing is ever going to be perfect at a free gambling site and you will get good and bad apples. The forum also usually polices itself and if someone tries to cheat in poker, sportsbook or quite frankly is trying too hard to be an asshole the other members take appropriate action. You have to also understand that this is a private business and not a .org or.gov site non for profit.

    those things you say they promote- they just allow a certain extent of free speech. but they dont even allow most of that stuff...this is NOT a gambling site. this is a gambling review site where you talk about gambling. they dont promote sexual harassment, they punish people with infractions for harassment and threats. they punish people the same way for posting porn.

    sbr mods are about 12/12 answering my messages. even before i was "pro"

    if you dont like it, get the f*ck out. maybe it had something to do with your message. maybe it didnt deserve a response. maybe they just chocked it up as some whining and venting.

    how ungrateful can people be.

    it appears he is too thin skinned for a place like this, perhaps the op and sbr are just not a good fit and he should find another place to post elsewhere.

    in my own experience, i've never had a problem receiving correspondence from a moderator/administrator if i have asked a question. longest i've waited was probably 24 hrs., most replies come within a few hours.
