    why are there people with 20k plus posts and aren't SBR pro?

    Obviously the $100 goes to help maintain the site, do reviews, negotiate when you have an issue with the site etc.. Why would you continue to freeload of SBR?

    No clue how I'm even Pro. Luckily, I'm grandfathered in, and can just use points. My shit has to be running out soon. How the hell do I have this many posts, damn. I need a life. Feel bad people had to read any of 22K, fck.

    err, no one is freeloading

    everyone contributes, the traffic increases the amounts sbr can charge advertisers for one


    and most people have signed up to at least one book through sbr, probably though multiple books per person

    so sbr makes a lot of money from non pros

    as someone said, pro status is a status symbol, or at least sbr pros think it is, and they act as though they are superior, putting off many from becoming pros just to be contrarian

    Those complaining about others being pro probably wish they had that 100 bucks back to gamble with. Why would you be concerned with what others are doing with their money on a forum.

    I don't care if people that post here are pro or not, but not being pro limits what you can do here, especially with bet points.

    Yes it does limit what one can do, but why someone else would care is beyond me, especially when it doesnt benefit them.

    I hope to be a PRO one day! I've been saving for 5 months now. Hopefully by XMAS I'll have enough money to become a PRO.
