    When Companies Change Hands.................

    Nothing is ever the same especially changing from an unregulated industry to a regulated industry things cannot be the same, not saying to get rid of perks but it has to be done to appease regulators .

    People this is the not the wild west anymore , the mink coaters and gold chains guys running wild.


    The new suits are still in transition mode not new development mode yet

    There are actually people here under the old regime looking out for your best interests

    I think when everything is figured out there will be some nice incentives to participate here

    God Bless All

    Nothing will ever be the same but such is life. I've acquired 3 companies and been acquired 2x, all in the spirit of creating more opportunity for the people who run it and providing a better product for the customer. Things change, I'm sure the new SBR will be just as good as the old SBR but probably a bit different. That's ok, now let me go put my mink coat on.

    That's great. Ask the powers that be to increase the table limits on the roulette games so I can take their money.

    When companies change hands they sometimes fire file clerks.

    I realize you are creating a lot of threads sending certain messages but there's no details provided.

    Let the mgmt know the most important thing during these transitions is communication. The more the better and it should include details. Even if some answers are not known yet, just list the things being evaluated. It'll help put people at ease.

    Employees and posters not knowing what lies ahead is the biggest problem when these "change" occur. It can lead to an exodus of those mgmt would have wanted to retain.

    Communicate, communicate, communicate.

    Maybe the new owners are paying him per thread/post started so he is taking advantage of it.

    It's all about the SBR server not crashing all day long with this new change over. When that happens I'll be concerned and may look to find a new sports forum to troll daily. .

    Until that happens I'm an SBR member for life..

    SBR payment and posting up off-shore.
