For many it sadly isn't.

SSK13809 was a good poster from an entertainment POV.
Good work.

This response was very informative shari... not being a poster who asks alot of questions about this stuff, you have definitley provided me with some clarity... thanks.

What Kraken is referring to isn't ghosting. Even though posters might not be aware of someone's former user name, Staff is. There's a procedure in place for asking to shut down your old account: "SBRforum does not grant username changes. However, users that wish to have their current accounts disabled to create a new account will be subject to a 100 point fee if they wish to have their point balance transferred. SBR Pro status, however, is nontransferable."

Ghosting is running multiple accounts at the same time. That is not allowed.

I've had many ghosts here over the years. I started out years ago with one handle and stuck to it for a about 6 months until one night I got pretty drunk, so I decided to "ghost"

It was actually a kind of surreal experience the first time, I felt like I was breaking the law or whatever. Anyways, I've had over 15 ghosts now and I've never cashed in 1 point or ever made a point transfer from ghost-to-ghost. I'm not here to scam SBR. So the whole point of this thread is that I'm going to reveal a couple of my ghosts over the years. A few have been pretty good, a few not so good. With that, here's my first one that's acutally done well. SSK13809 SSK is actually a type of baseball glove

I played college baseball and my glove just happened to be sitting next to my computer as I created the name. 13809 is the zip code of where I live in NY. Hence, SSK13809. I'll give out some more over the next few days. Some pretty good ones to. Maybe Archie can jump in and give out some of his better ones, I know he's had a few.

Kraken and SSK13809 were collecting points at the same time

business as usual

The Kraken · 02-12-12, 09:30 PM

Sickler,
That issues been put to rest. Quit trying to make something out of nothing here. Sometimes things fall through the cracks. I'm sure they're monitoring a lot of accounts. The main thing is I never once even tried to cash in a point. Back off pal.

Zam,
It was me that used the word ghosting. Apparently, I used it incorrectly. I've had multiple accounts but rarely have they overlapsed. It's easy enough to check and see if I've ever transferred points from one account to another. Mods know I haven't. It's also blatanly obvious i've never tried to rip off SBR and exchange points for merchandise. My team advised against it.

Look, some of you guys are completely missing the point here. It's well known that a lot of people have had multiple accounts here for different reasons. I'm just trying to give you all a glimpse into some of the different names you've all interacted with through the years.

As for WV, you likely spend much more accumulated time here than I do. In all of my accounts, I still don't spend much time on here. I've just been around a long time. Little here, little there. You should really be a little more respectful to one of the few players here that releases winners.

zam77 · 02-12-12, 09:47 PM

Fair enough kraken... if what you're doing isn't ghosting though, it's being confused by many as ghosting and will continue to be until it's given it's own name. Until then I'll still consider it ghosting. Shari, if what kraken is doing isnt' ghosting... what should we call it?

On Jan 22, ssk13809 (you) transferred 228 points to the SBR book. Kraken (you) have been collecting points everyday since Dec 25.

You're lucky ole Willie isn't around. Just sayin

After 20 ghosts, that's the best you can come up with??

Keep looking for attention lil coward..

What a nerdy phag.

rjt721 · 02-13-12, 01:14 AM

Ghosting is encouraged.

Just NEVER bump old threads (especially CrazyL threads).

dj_destroyer · 02-13-12, 01:22 AM

Never once thought to ghost... it's pretty gay.

Gee · 02-13-12, 01:26 AM

We are all missing the point here.

SSK was a brilliant ghost. Well played

A lot of people got very worked up arguing with him when it was all clearly a bit of fun.

Pretty funny some of the responses in here though. (Sorry Kraken but the paranoid parade will continue unless it's put to rest.)

Yeh, WTF have you been pal?

My 1000 dime winner went last week as well. Guess you missed out...

Also need you in chat to get some thoughts on baskets. Not long until playoffs. Wildcats are a good lay on betfair for the title, but they would have already drifted too far.

ChalkyDog · 02-13-12, 03:01 AM

What Kracken is doing seems to be more "sock"ish than "ghost"ish, due to the fact that being a ghost insinuates point transfers, or overlapping accounts.
