    what is going on with mods lately
    why are they so fast to pull the trigger and dump ANY non sports issue from players talk?

    I thought it is where players talk about anything within reason, which I feel the community polices itself fairly well already.

    wonder who is behind this recent purge, I really dont think it is warrented

    If you wanna talk non sports related they have a "general talk" forum now. I just noticed this recently. How long has this been?

        Players talk should be sports related not the BS that jj, pavy and bateman and someothers post all day that have nothing to do with sports. It should be in the General talk forum.

            Agreed.

            Seems like it's only a select range of topics moved to General Discussion, though.

            I think it's being used as the middle ground between PT and the dungeon of PZ to dump taboo, yet not completey unacceptable, threads, like anything seen as being potentially "racist".

              I posted a similar thread about spencer pratt and his wife going bankrupt and it got move to pz, bizarre

              I just thought players talk was where the players talk amongst themselves, if it is confined to gambling discussions only it should be renamed

                I have never even understood the players talk forum. How do some threads end up in both players talk and one of the sub-forums simultaneously and not others?

                  Good point. Players talk should be renamed gambling talk.

                    Players Talk
                    The SBR Lobby: Sports Talk, Gambling and Bettor's Chat


                    General Discussion
                    All topics in life from cars, fitness, relationships to recent headlines

                    Probably half of the threads in players talk should be in General Discussion.

                      They really need to do a better job of clarifying things like this when they make these type of changes. I actually think this is a good idea seperating gambling related talk and regular talk but I like a lot of others where unaware of this change.
