Posters don't want bullshit politically correct filters or constant timeouts from mods when a heated debate or name-calling occurs.
Very good suggestion, I always remain logged in to the forum but have to re-longin each time I try to access the point book.

fantasy league section based on all points.....different levels based on experience and different voted for payouts of points. Mods oF SBR holds the funds and also pays them out after the league is done.

And lower the prices of the stuff in the SBR Book.

Do not allow people to create a new account every 4 months to change their name. SBR use to allow people to change their name and keep the post counts. We were then told it was not possible because of the MYsbr. But we now know that is not the case as I have watched CrazyLou chance to just Lou.
Making people stick to their post history will make posters more accountable for their actions here. Otherwise you get idiots like Eggnog who act like an ass for 2 months and "quit" SBR only to show up the next day under a new account.
Maybe allow one name change per a specified time if people really feel the need to change their name.

Maybe even keeper leagues to keep people active yearly with all major sports included. I'VE BEEN RUNNING THE SAME KEEPER LEAGUES ON OTHER FORUMS FOR YEARS AND ONLY HAD TO REPLACE 2 PLAYERS IN THAT TIME. EVERY YEAR, PEOPLE WILL FLOCK BACK TO THE LEAGUE

I would update the SBR Sportsbook. Better interface, more user-friendly with deposits/withdrawals, and easier to make picks.

Good posting!
One account/one name. Coming back with a new name should be banned immediately.

In the sportsbook I'd add
Half time lines
Live betting
more prop bets
reverse run lines
parlays in tennis
Otherwise
Get rid of the points rake
More contests/special lines
And make it easier to find blogs

Pavy, since you've been around here a good long time, tell us how you spend you spend your SBR points and if you have found any good buys in the SBR store?

2. Have a 256 or 128 poster contest, bracket setup, at least 1 every 2 months; seems we only have about 2 per year and would like to see in the neighborhood of 5 or 6 per year.
I agree, the 128's and 256's are always fun. We are ironing some kinks out of tournaments on SBRpicks to ensure what we launch is a smooth ride for everyone. We will have MLB bracket tournaments coming up soon.

Remove signatures from the site. They are a complete waste of space reading every post that includes them.

Also implement some kind of auction for would-be SBR store items. Have a sportsbook donate a $500 freeplay to the highest bidder of points.
Kind of like the deal of the day. Take something in the store and put it up at a zero reserve auction.

4)General lowering of prices in the store (especially electronics as they do not reflect current market prices) Items may not reflect current market prices, but remember we also take care of shipping (International or within the US) at no charge to the posters.
5) An official thread in the points subforum for SBR store item additions we would like to see (Done)
9)A concierge service in SBR store which would allow us to contact Sam and ask him for the points requirement for a specific item of our choosing (somewhat what like pokerstars does in its VIP program). This could also serve as an alternative to the suggestion thread Some of the posters that order on a regular basis are aware of my phone # and have called me on numerous occasions so here it is for everyone (210-736-5656)
10) A time delay when prices will be raised in the SBR store with an announcement of such so players can react. We will do a 24 hour notice of price changes in the future.

Awesome Lou, yeah I enjoy all the contests you guys offer but the 128s/256s bracket formats are my favorite by far, they're a good time.

There needs to be exceptions on this rule. Not much you can do other than change your name when dealing with death threats.

Oh and Btw, i just want to come in here and say how great everyone on here that has something to do with running this site is doing. You guys are awesome and everything is always running smoothly. More, you guys making a thread of what the posters think would make this site better just makes you guys better at what you do. A lot of mods wouldnt even offer posters a chance to give their opinion.

If you are dealing with death threats on an internet forum, maybe you should reevaluate your own posting habits that warranted such an attack in the first place. Or better yet report the post and put the poster who threatened you on your ignore list.

I would hire two posters.
1. Wal. Guy does a tremendous job with any task, is meticulous, and never steps out of bounds on his comments with other posters. Would make a good Mod if you need one.
2. The Profit (took initiative with HOTM and looks like a leader). I think he could be good for new contests/special promotions.
I would add an option to not allow certain posters to enter your threads, if a poster is stalking, or repetitively posting negative comments.

I will destroy you donkeys @ poker. Considering points in reality are "real money" in a way I will def be cleaning up when that comes out. The best sites to play cards on are the sites with a sportsbook attached (bodog, oddsmaker etc).
That being said the thing that has annoyed me from the beginning, and is a small change that would be nice is to be able to stay logged in across the forum to the book. Obv a very small thing that would improve the user experience.

Our poker room will be up in August. It will have everything you want, ring games, sit n go's, and more. It will function entirely off SBR Points. Part of the delay has been making sure the right platform would be made available to SBR posters, with how long you guys have waited for poker, we wanted to make sure the product you received would be worth the price of admission; which is merely as many SBR points as you want to buy into the table for.
The poker freerolls with Bodog are fun but unfortunately can't be done as frequently as we'd like. If you'd like to be part of some Bodog sponsored poker, head over to the SBR Bash in Vegas and take part in the $5,000 freeroll. A little birdie told me we expect a Professional Poker player to be attending.

Oh really, you don't take points? Dear God Pavy, you never miss an opportunity to tell the world you don't receive points. That was a set up question and I just lost a C-Note because I said you wouldn't take the bait because it was too obvious as I've started several threads about your demonstrable declarations that you, Pavy, will not accept points. We fukkin get it! You owe me a sizeable lunch or at least a decent dinner.
