    I think forums in general are going the way of the evening news paper.

    This is like stone age shit we are doing.

    I COMPLETELY AGREE.

    MODS: Please post all that stuff in sub forums, i believe we already have "contests forum".

    Absolutely impossible to read now.

    I think the cover the league contests could be moved, once you got deep into the contest. No new sign ups needed and the competetors should remember on their own once they are a few weeks into it

    https://www.sportsbookreview.com/for...yers-talk.html

    i like JJ's idea of 1 thread stickied AND LOCKED at top, with only 1 post in it containing active contest links

    Agreed, we have tried to make it a little too convenient. These contests will be available in the contest subforum.

    Thank you gents

    We discussed this and kinda agree the 1-2 day contests that get activity/interaction and then eventually fade off into the sunset might be ok to to still hold in Players Talk or at least s-link.

    You're a semi smart guy.Pull up the past beat the bag threads and look at the replies and then look at this one.Common sense says you screwed the pooch on this one pal.

    are we still going to get new contests posted in players talk, then moved to that subforum after about 24hrs?

    or we just have to randomly check every day?

    Isn’t there a contests sub forum? Or use betpoints sub forum for them. I agree it’s a bit much, and I’m someone who enjoys the contests.
