    That's how I spend most of my time when on the boards. linking topics created in PT WITH the appropriate forum too.

    Let's use Homie for example, let's say he creates an informative NFL pick thread in PT only, one of the mods will make sure that thread gets maximum exposure and link that thread with the NFL forum as well.

    This way if a 'guest' is interested mainly in NFL content and visits only the NFL forum, there's a good chance Homie's efforts will be missed sitting in PT only.

    That's one way to drive viewership and membership up.

      Turn back the clock:

      1) Betpoints value. Can't just cut the cord. Even if the prices quadruple, guys can feel like they can get some value out of those Betpts.

      2) Poker. Even if it's just one Sunday tournament, guys would love to get back to it. Make modest payouts for top 3 slots.

      That would address the forum interest substantially.
      Where's the fuckin power box, Carol?

          You were asked to stop the incessant mentions and promotions of the forum you work with.

          That is all.

          And given you have had to be asked quite a few times now but STILL FREAKIN make references to it, you should be thinking "Gee, these guys are very tolerant of me. Anyone else would just have been booted for promoting anything by now".

          Seriously, stop whining. Stop making posts like this suggesting SBR is mean or treating you unfairly. Don't ever make mention of any other forum, because you seem incapable of understanding what is too much and what is just incidental mentions like others are welcome to make.

          Are you this much of annoying prat in real life Jerky? I'd say not. Try not to be one here too.

              I guess that's exactly what I am doing. And shaking my head as I type.

              I saw you posting some complete made up BS that I said you were on your last chance yesterday too.

              Go post your BS victim lies at BMR if that's how you like to be seen.




              "I wish I could share my brutally honest opinion in this thread but unfortunately I cannot." wah wah wah.... and it's just an outright lie as well!!!

                                  Thanks Chief, I can see what I can do for you if you wanna reconsider. If not no big deal either way.

                                      You'll have to tell the current mods and staff over there they suck azz and have no clue. They don't want to be exposed which is why I got the boot

                                            Tellin you. This is the solution. Think about it: *What differentiated SBR from any other forum?

                                            Forums can get VERY tiresome. Most of the content is poor and/or un-readable.

                                            Bring back the Betpoints and Poker. Get some value out of the Point system. Trust me, it's good business.

                                              Nice to see you again on these boards Manster. Your football teasers are very sharp, but you mentioned you don’t have a need to bet on sports anymore so I’m gonna question your motives to win now lol. (Sarcasm)

                                                Hi BTJ...Hope you are doing well my friend...anyhow, it's a couple of factors....primarily, just like when I was living in the states, it's just to supplement my income. A little extra spending money for my leisurely lifestyle and expenses. and also to stay focused and sharp in the sports world which I still enjoy with a passion. Truth be told, I don't how much longer I will be doing it or how long I will continue to post on this forum.

                                                  I respect that Manster, nothing last forever and change is always around the corner in life. I’m just happy that you are living a comfortable lifestyle and don’t worry about money. One day I hope to be in your financial shoes because it’s a total grind right now living in South Florida as a single full time father for me.

                                                    Pretty honest, Jerky. You should come back here and make SBR your home base.

                                                    It's not unusual for Management change to lead to questionable decisions. Betpoints and Poker are what made SBR unique. Being able to post and convert those points into a Giftcard, pretty nice.

                                                    Nobody was getting rich off this stuff. And the Poker was good enough that guys would alter their schedule to play in the Poker tournaments. SBR Poker World Cup was pretty cool, it was fun for all involved.

                                                      Yes I agree that’s what they need to reenforce betpoints/poker to attract posters. The new owners here don’t have a background of how things were built 10-15 years ago and they have their own ideas & their own plan.
