Wierd things at SBR; most peculiar day yesterday

[SBR_John]

I counted 30+ in SBR chat last night. Got some great advice. Never knew there was a do-it-yourself root canal technique. Micron(MU) is the stock to buy (personally I'd short it).

Miss_Gorgeous finished 4th in the 8PM poker tournament. (i never finished higher than 25th )

And to prove it was a full moon in forumville the darkest forum at SBR the Private Zone is being merged in some kind of hostile takeover with the off topic forum The Saloon.

Some mods too worried about getting bets in instead of making players SBR Pros

I got 3 e-mails yesterday from posters stating they have been waiting 4 days to get upgraded

No excuse and I mean NO

[bobbyfk]

what are you going to do about it JJ?

[Cougar Bait]

Damn Bobby pulling rank

JJ can Bobby order you around now?

[dbnmln]

So I have to ask why Micron (MU) is the stock to buy; it hasn't been over $12/share in the past 10 years, which is where it hovers right now.

[jjgold]

Its a disgrace posters have to wait like 5 days or more to become SBR Pros

Lazy mods

Get on ball

[stealthyburrito]

chat was a headache with all those people.

[zam77]

^^^Chat may have to follow suit. One for off topic and one for gambling/sports.

I told those stock jockeys that MU has been a SELL since it broke 50 in the 90's. Stop by and help me talk some sense into them...byosj...(bring your own straight jacket)

micron is just random stock advice from ttaylor aka lemart. no reason or earnings reports or developmental ingenuity, just some guy that pretends to be a stock broker who probably heard jim cramer mention the company's name.


JJ, i totally agree. i bet they are going to miss out on a few guys going pro today with the hopes of getting it in by midnight to do trivia tomorrow.
if there IS an excuse then what is it.

[hubie69]

Perhaps now that more people are actually joining the chat, it'll get some attention and they can actually fix some of whats wrong with the chat....I know they haven't touched it in like 3 years

[SBR_John]

Can not argue with that. What would you like to see fixed first??? We will start on it right away.

[nosniboR11]

what are you going to do about it JJ?

bobby you actually think now since you are a mod, you dont have to do a job, do your damn job kid, you already starting to show that you can not handle the job

[hubie69]

Namely it's super slow, if I type something in, it doesn't always appear after I hit send, sometimes it wont show until like 5 minutes later. I can type in other messages/new message, and they'll show up in the chat before my original message did.

Secondly, It would be nice to have a bit of a cleaner interface to it, it just feels clunky, and not all the smileys that are available are listed on the smiley drop down box.

Thirdly, The banner at the top which claims it's not monitored, should listed in the HTML above the chat box, not overlaid on top of the chat box, so I can actually read back more of the chat if I stepped away for a minute.

I'm sure OMG and a couple of others can add some thing to this list as well

First this place needs less glorified hall monitors. Second SBR Chat is a great feature but needs an upgrade really bad that also has an ignore feature. There needs to be a way of shutting off the constant posting of porn pics mainly by lemart5/ttaylor. Maybe chat needs a mod in there to keep an eye on these things? It's disturbing to have chat opened and I walk away from the computer with people over(some kids) and come back to them staring at the filth this loser posts. Do you see a problem in this? Believe me I have heard others mention it as well. Just my 2 cents, thanks.

I agree with this Obama, although I would like them to get it technically sound first. It's easier to build off a good foundation with a product that actually works the way it's supposed to.

[hubie69]

Isn't bobby a chat mod and i think he's in there quite a bit.

this is not sesame street. how about close it when you walk away (one click) open it back up when you get back (two clicks)

I don't need to close anything. Consistantly posting horse porn and other forms of discussting garbage, such as lemart's fascination with cocks is unacceptable. You might like looking at the gay porn he posts, I don't.

[hubie69]

To the point though Obama, as much as I dislike such things, I don't think censoring that is a good idea. I agree with you, but once you censor the chat it's a slippery slope for what else has to go in there..

I would settle for an ignore feature, I'm sure others would love this idea too. Why there isn't one now, I do not know. With an ignore feature SBR, it could stay the same as it is now, without a mod.

[hubie69]

good call obama, being able to ignore others in there would be very nice, would also help to unclutter when there's 30 some odd jackasses posting in there

[OmgUrMom]

chat is empty right now.

is miss goeurgous your wife/gf John?

[SBR_John]

OK 1st priority is to get it faster. Lets's start there. And yes Omg, she is indeed my wife...further proving even the losers, get lucky sometime. -Tom Petty

[YorkHunt]

It would be great to keep bringing the chat numbers high up there!!! But just leave LEMART aka Taylor out!!

We will work to make the chat better. Maybe we could have a feature to vote someone out of chat for say 10 minutes? It would be good if chat could self moderate itself.

[bobbyfk]

, you already starting to show that you can not handle the job

What do you mean?

[bobbyfk]

Yes, yes I am

you don't want to be embarrassed

[bobbyfk]

you don't want to be embarrassed

I don't mind...

[SBR_John]

Ivan the Great is looking at the chat software and hardware and will let us know what our options are. Give him a couple of days.

only problem with this is(well, maybe its not a problem at all) but people like taylor would just get voted out right away.
