                      Hey posters, why do you keep allowing yourselves to be taken by scammers? We have the means for you to wager points through the SBR Picks software and the means for you to earn extra points through blogging and such. Why continually whore yourselves out to the point sharks and loan points to posters you don't know from Adam?

                            Really appreciate the response, seriously. This guy has admitted that he has tryed to scam or stiff 4+ posters, why don't you disable his points. would this make to much sense? I know there are going to be new posters that fall for this @$$hole, isn't it about time you do something about it?

                            If I am running a business, I would not allow my customers to keep on getting scammed and stiffed, He has admitted to his wrong doing, why don't you do anything about it?

                            Am I missing something here?

                              loaning and betting with other posters is part of the game, in real life if a person scams or stiffs a business, they get punished by the law, I don't understand what I am missing, are you going to keep allowing posters to keep getting stiffed, so by you not doing anything about this, are you allowing posters to keep on scamming and stiffing other posters, does this sound like a good business model?

                              So is it free game to scam or stiff?

                                              The only thing I would add is let Willie know the minute you get a scam solicitation. A poster could lose his PM privelages if he is out there pan handeling and such.

                                              Otherwise its a little like getting an email from the daughter of the heir from the Bank of Nigeria whose father suddenly passed away and she needs you to help by depositing $15 million in your back account. DONT FALL FOR THIS or any other scam. Click "delete" after you forward a copy to Willie and be done with it.

                                                    SBR created an economy by introducing points and has since been irresponsible in controlling it. I know Willie will just respond with his normal I'm better than you garbage and say no one should be lending or betting with each other, but it is just a natural extension of the points.

                                                    There is NO DOWNSIDE to SBR getting involved and restricting these posters points. I have already done the legwork for them in terms of tracking loans and reporting stiffs. To date not one stiff has denied being one, so saying they don't want to get involved in disputes is total bull.

To date not one stiff has denied being one, so saying they don't want to get involved in disputes is total bull.

                                                      SBR does not loan points out to posters, so why should this be SBR's problem?

I know Willie will just respond with his normal I'm better than you garbage and say no one should be lending or betting with each other, but it is just a natural extension of the points.

                                                        There is NO DOWNSIDE to SBR getting involved and restricting these posters points. I have already done the legwork for them in terms of tracking loans and reporting stiffs. To date not one stiff has denied being one, so saying they don't want to get involved in disputes is total bull.

                                                        The downside is its extra work maybe a little bit or maybe alot.

                                                            They facilitate it and allow it to happen. SBR restricts the points of users who ghost to cheat and get more points, why not do the same for those who stiff to get more points? The fact of the matter is it is blatant stealing no matter how you look at it. The fact the points are worth very little doesn't matter. SBR is the only party involved who has power to step in, so they have a duty to do so.

                                                              Trust me, fosho, if I really thought that banning any single poster, including myself, would "solve everything," I'd have done it four years ago.

If it took more than 10 minutes of an SBR staff member's time a day I would be absolutely shocked. I wouldn't push for this if I thought it would be a big hassle.

                                                                      Banning all head-to-head betting and loaning would at least be a more reasonable approach than turning a blind eye to stealing.
