Remember when SBR gave Tony & Bobby that lifetime ban for booking?

[onthewhat]

Yeah, me neither. Kind of hard to take SBR serious about anything when they show they will bend the rules to help produce traffic and posting numbers that have been lost.

I'm sure one of the puppets will be along shortly to tell me how wrong I am when in fact I'm the one thinking and not subscribing to the SBR kool-aid like a nit wit.

Did you know that in American jurisprudence life in prison may not indeed mean that the person remains incarcerated until they die?!? It's amazing but true.

good point
onner if you don't like it here, just move to another place, you wont be missed

[mmike032]

yes, life sentences vary from state to state

[BatemanPatrickl]

Tony and Bobby threatened suicide if they were not allowed to post. John Walker did not want the liability so he let them back.

[lakerboy]

onner what happened to you? why are you so bitter these days? companies do what they have to do to make money. its the way of the world

[36mafia]

starting to believe several posters have ulterior motives

[konck]

My nephew got a life time ban with a never return for less than they did.
Release Bobbybaseballs BAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He rages and hammered a live chat in a sports book life time ban?

[pavyracer]

The rule book here is amended daily on fresh paper and ink. If SBR was a country it wouldn't last because it has no constitution.

His ban was probably lifted in the great hard drive crash of 2010.

[jjgold]

Herman back off, you know too much as it is. I pulled some strings but now we are really clamping down and for your sake you better be right here or you could be facing a 8 month ban for lying. We took all the paper work you gave us and examine it all.

[Boner_18]

The rule book here is amended daily on fresh paper and ink. If SBR was a country it wouldn't last because it has no constitution.

But if it were a business it would last because businesses don't need a Constitution. Businesses do require an Articles of Incorporation and the standard is:

"XYZ business is hearby incorporated under the various laws of Delaware to engage in any business for profit so long as that business be appropriate and lawful."

[SBR_John]

"life" in the US prision system I think is like 25 years. So a life sentence in forumville should probably be about what 10 months?

[RogueScholar]

John, in your exhortation last year saying that anyone booking action from other SBR posters would get a lifetime ban, did you mean life without parole, or your new 10 month variety?

[onthewhat]

I hope John isn't as clueless about SBR as he is about the US Prison system.

I'm curious to know too. Lifetime ban is very vague. I need to update my policy handbook after a ruling on this matter.

[landers781]

Wow I guess Nicky wasn't lying about the curse saying it would affect more than just Sams gambling life.

[paco]

Wow I guess Nicky wasn't lying about the curse saying it would affect more than just Sams gambling life.

I bet he wishes he apologised now

[SBR_John]

I think "life" on a posting forum is a bit over the top. Of course hindsight is always 20/20. And we do seem to have a group that love to post when it seems SBR may have called something wrong. They get so excited, kind of creepy but a-ok. Guys its a posting forum, nothing more. Butch up and quit taking this micro muntia so seriously.

[PittsburghPlayer]

Being clueless about life in prison is a good thing. Don`t Cha think?

[onthewhat]

Johnny we are going by your quotes when discussing lifetime bans. You are the person who brought the idea to the table.

You flip flop more than John Kerry. Make up your damn mind.

I guess there will be a large amount of new bookmaking operations since no one will be banned for life. Whats the risk? Risk/reward is huge here.

So this is more another instance of hooliganism than an actual violation of SBR policy? And what's micro muntia?

Especially with SBR turning a blind eye towards stiffs. Just go deposit-only for as long as you can while keeping your post count growing, that seems to be the message being set right now.

You would think after he made a stand to defend Alamo with a passion, I mean the banishment of the N word, the policy rulings wouldn't have been so vague in the future. This is why shit happens all the time. No one knows what is appropriate forum conduct and what isn't.

[Tsoprano]

It's mind boggling how some people put 99% of their energy at SBR complaining. I mean isn't it easy to leave and find something else/somewhere else to go occupy one's time? Or is SBR that addictive that even when you hate it you are still glued to the key board?

[pavyracer]

I hate Bud Selig and MLB but I still watch and root for the Atlanta Braves.

[SBR_John]

I think a first timer should be reviewed down the line and possibly unbanned. Like what happened here was just fine. We all deserve second chances and everyone ever banned here has been given at least one second chnace. So actually the policy is pretty consistant. Some will blow a second chance and some will not and life will go on in the Twilight Zone...uhh errr Imean forumville.

What else is there to do here? SBR has been so inconsistent with its conduct policy that you never know what is okay to post and what isn't. It all depends on the Mod on duty and how fat last month's affiliate checks were. All that's left is to point out the hypocrisy in the hopes that by shining a light on it we can somehow eliminate it.

[BatemanPatrickl]

John Walker forget these dancing bears. You, me and JJ run this forum.

[Tsoprano]

I hate Bud Selig and MLB but I still watch and root for the Atlanta Braves.

that's a good way to put it

[SBR_John]

Bateman thanks for posting, Bateman is a great example. I think he had a long ban now he is a good dude to post with. Guys make mistakes, well of course not pavy or rugscholar but the rest of us mere mortals do. So yea, guys will be moderated and hopefully they can re join somewhere down the line.

[whatsgood5]

I can't blame them. I mean this is a business...

[whatsgood5]

Very good point. And go Braves

I'm just saying there are bigger things in life to try and improve than a gambling forum. SBR is already top notch in several ways if they feel some compassion once in a while for posters that make mistakes so be it.

What I don't like is how my name is being thrown into every thread like I had Sammy go and recruit SBR guys. Trust me, I snatched up virtually every known poster months back and almost every single one became a stiff/ran out of funds. You couldn't pay me to look for gamblers on SBR again. It had a good fun the first month when everybody was fresh and some guys actually cared about their reputation, but after that it was like dealing with thieves right out of prison. Some of the biggest heavy hitter posters are stiffs for $100 and shit, this place i'm sure is a gold mine for post up books.... but with credit that already ran it's course and exited it's prime.

I do not know if Sammy was serious or not if he is he will need a lot of tylenol with that approach.

It's all good, fellas'.
