Hey you! Be the SBR CEO today and tell us what you would do..

[Andy117]

I think it's pretty great to have a thread like this, can only make an awesome site better.

[SKiLLsSoLoN]

I would like to have some type of reload bonus. I know we are being offered sign up bonus but some reload bonus would help foud the bookies as well.

Also some type of ranking system for each poster. I know there are users who owe me back loans. If I could some how flag them or lower there rank on this forum it would help pressure them to pay it back to up there standing among others. This could cost points to lower or upper. So if someone is really disliked it would show by people having to spend points to show it.

[big0mar]

Add more to sbrodds, such as series totals history, etc.

[70kgman]

On the "SBRForum specials offered by books above standard bonuses" section. If possible, It would be nice if the users could see the next batch of offers that are pending to get added once the current ones expire. There is an offer I would like to purchase currently listed, but I am holding off from spending all the points I have to purchase it just in case a similar offer for a specific preferred book may get added at some point in the near future.

[Chipp]

bring back ganchrow

+1.

[Naz18]

I would make it so you could actually have a decent service play section..

[MastaB]

I would cash my shares!

[TodaysAction]

I think since you took away the 1,000 point mark rewards, you need to give some sort of bonus/reward to those reaching a certain post count.

Quality should count for more than quantity, meaning give more for a 'x' number word post (more than the 2 for the sub-forum post but less than the minimum blog) limited to two posts like this per day.

SBR anniversary join date points 5, 10 or 20 per year - less for the first few years but adding more as posters remain longer.

The inter forum challenge for the various sports is a great idea. Years ago PaceAdvantage hosted one for the t'bred players and it was well received.

That's all I can think of at the moment.

Great to have the feedback!

Several CEO suggestions are fully in place and we are working on quite a few others. Who better to call the shots than you guys?

btw, for the couple of passionate suggestions about the Service Plays Forum... end of the week.

On your 2nd part referring to basically credit rating for posters; suggested earlier and a full discussion is under way to help in that area.

[Ryangene]

More soccer odds ... I know you have all the world cup but after world cup is over to have more.

[SBR_John]

Add more to sbrodds, such as series totals history, etc.

OK. The first major rebuild of SBROdds platform will be finished in September... look for enhanced stats and much more later in the year.

Interesting point. I don't think we are aware real far in advance what exactly the next batch of special bonuses are, but I'll ask.

[SBR_John]

Thats high on the list...give me until the end of the week and we will go from there.

Agree a bonus of some kind is needed for quality posters.

Love the anniversary idea!

Love the inter forum contest idea as well.

We will try to work on all three.

[playersonly69]

Can you start offering odds on Reality TV shows? Maybe set some sort of low limit if you are worried about people winning too much. Maybe like 100-200 max bets. This way you cant lose much and yet posters could have some fun betting those shows.


The second thing that you need to do, is to pay me to wear your SBR gear at the WSOP later this month! It wouldnt cost SBR that much and you could get another 200-500 posters posting here that have NEVER even heard of forums or online books. You cant even imagine how much affiliate dollars that would bring in. And we are not talking about $50 bettors. If these guys can pay $1500 to enter a poker tournament EVERYDAY, then their initial deposits would certainly be over $2000 at most books.

[playersonly69]

Send me a PM or an email SBRJOHN. I could call you tomorrow with details on getting those new 200-500 posters at this site

[Chi_archie]

big bonuse should be given to the poster that makes the 3 millionth post in players talk

[Chi_archie]

http://forum.sbrforum.com/players-talk/517691-2-000-000th-players-talk-post.html

keep track of more historic milestones like that...... shows how far SBR has come

[EmpireMaker]

Instead of discontinuing the 25 pt bonus per 1000 posts, due to the few the overpost just to get pts, I would suggest that each poster have to PM a mod for the bonus and the bonus be limited to 1 bonus per 60 days up to 5 or 6 times a year.
Anniversary date bonuses might be a good alternative if my prior idea isn't acceptable.

Poker tournies on Bodog and Bookmaker are good ways to attract new members and I think they should be continued even if SBR gets its own poker app

A viewing room to watch live games would be cool.

SBR store auction (points)

A past performance database available to SBR members (covering as many sports as possible)

allowing a clearly marked NSFW thread area (post content guidelines)

[TodaysAction]

Sounds good and thank you for the five.

[flyingillini]

I think that Richard Moss ought to rub SBR for 2 months straight, do everything, day to day operations, run the book etc etc etc... He needs to be compensated for his talents. Him and Rod are true pioneers and you are very very lucky to have them on board. Looking forward in seeing you at the Bash John. As the good book states , " Noah, lets gamble ", as Jesus leaned over to Noah.

[EmpireMaker]

Eliminator or Showdown contests for horse racing would be cool

eliminator contest for NFL

[EmpireMaker]

have a contest that gives the winning SBR member a paid trip to the WSOP and the horseplayerworldseries and/or national handicapping championship give the winner cool SBR gear to wear during the tournaments

[playersonly69]

Well Empire, SBR doesnt have to pay for my trip to the WSOP or my entry fee. I am already paying that. But they could still advertise with me. It is pretty boring at the poker table during a tournament. And AT LEAST 3000 people will see the shirt and/or hat that I wll wear and I will tell everyone about the site

[SBR_John]

big bonuse should be given to the poster that makes the 3 millionth post in players talk

Lou... do we know who made the 3,000,000th post? If not, can we build a way to find out and give that poster a prize?

On suggestion #1 I was told we can offer pretty much everything that bookmaker offers.

#2 uhh you would have to contact SBR marketing. No idea if they would have any interest in that.

Yes, the point of the suggestion was to market the site to people who would be interested in the site. It would be a cool thing for the site for someone from here to win a seat and then the whole forum would have a rooting interest as well.

[BatemanPatrickl]

Take me off the 300 second post delay please!

I agree. Richard is a great fit and we love him and Rod.

We start up some unique and complicated projects. You fall on your face without good guys like Richard and Rob who care about their company and job.

[SBR_John]

Take me off the 300 second post delay please!

Lets give it a try....but when the rapid fire crushing routine returns; so does the delay setting.

[playersonly69]

Can I have my PM's back please?

[BatemanPatrickl]

Thank you sir. Just keep the jackals off me. Much appreciated.

[Chi_archie]

Lou... do we know who made the 3,000,000th post? If not, can we build a way to find out and give that poster a prize?

there hasn't been a 3 millionth player's talk post yet... I was both the 1 millionth and 2 millionth post in player's talk...


I keep close tabs on these numbers

[dbldown]

Buy the old(now out of business) http://www.hubdub.com/ infrastructure and implement something like that here at SBR using the points system.
