    All loans and bets can be settled in 24 hrs. This is outrageous. If we don't do any transfers for 24hrs it will show them we are strong my fellow posters.

                        Pavy eats using points. This will be a disaster for Coco.

                          This is basically a tax on the highest volume transfer-to-transfer guys (I.E. Mexi, Dunder) that will barely affect anyone else in the long run. Everyone except the big boys will forget about this "scandal" in 2 weeks and everything will go on like before.

                          Oh, also, points are free. I'd rather pay 1% then see the points system disappear because of the hassle it creates.

What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?

                            but they don't want points transfers so thats the reason for the new rule I thought

                              No the reason for the new rule is to get back 1% of points through transactions. If they didn't want points transfers the fee would have been 20% instead to deter all action.

                              It's like when your credit card charges you a "small" fee of 3% for balance transfers. They really want you to do it because if they charged you 20% they know you wouldn't do it.

                                Exactly, but it's ridiculous to have guys that do a lot of good for the forum bear the burden of an unnecessary tax. SBR should focus more on busting ghosts.

                                  It's actually a 2% tax, as 1% gets taken out on either end.

                                  I suggest everyone on SBR put every last point they have on the Lakers ML tonight and try to bust them out.

                                    ok I see your point.

                                    so they're being dicks but not trying to put point transfers out of business. I'm boycotting transfers.

                                    I don't like the idea of putting all my points on lakers ml. if it loses we'll all go bankrupt. and if it wins sbr will just screw everyone.
