Jesus balls you people need to lighten up. It's not like I was the one who was offering the +900 and intending to cash in on people, I stood nothing to gain from someone betting this other than amusement and entertainment value. Hell, even if someone DID fall for it, would it not be their own fault for not paying attention?

Moreover, if I TRULY intended to fuck someone over I could've used a European or Asian soccer line or obscure sport as most people would not have known it had started. Instead I used a line involving the FUCKING YANKEES, it could not have been more obviously a joke (the Angels were -2800 at the time as well). Did I think anyone would fall for it? Not really, but the thought/possibility of it amused me at the time.

the whole point is people ocme to therx to share ideas,thoughts,etc to HELP in are sports gambling habits and so on. What you did was shady as fuck. Would I have fallen for it? Absolutely not, but what if a newbie read your post and decided to bet on it thinking you were helping him out when in fact you were screwing him over....

haha too much overreaction for something so small, so what if he bet it or not.. if you did lose money on the live bet then it was no one else's fault but their's.

1.) The person has their own decision whether or not to submit the bet
2.) Why make bets on a whim if someone's never even tailed/bothered to look if he's a sharp capper?
3.) "Stupid people do stupid things, smart people outsmart each other."

Like someone said before, "no harm, no foul"

I'm going to go with dumb as fuck. I'm confidant in my analysis. I've never even talked to this guy, so I'm not sure why I'm defending him but if you look at the threads he's started http://www.therxforum.com/search.php?searchid=1538891 he's always calm and relaxed.

If this thread came from somebody who had a track record of starting trouble or was a newbie I'd say he was trying to screw people and say ban. I think this thread is enough shit for him, it won't happen again. If people on the forum think being really retarded/ignorant for a moment is enough to ban, then whatever. Just my opinion. Don't think he started it intentionally to fuck people over, but actually thought he was helping people, then it backfired.

hmm good point fucnluc, the more i think about it now i really dont think he was trying to fuck anyone over. especially since hes been here for a while and never caused any problems before. i think he was just making a joke out of it but people didnt take it the right way including myself. either way i dont think he should have done it but i dont think he meant any harm

I do. I dont believe it. People on this board are constantly pointing things out and quick action is needed to get in, like with scalps and such. Many times if you dont act inmediately you are left out.

The post was bullshit and I think he was trying to get someone to fall for it.

 

[DChosta]

I think that those that know WHAT IS scalping and HOW TO do it already know what they're doing and wouldn't have fallen for it anyways.

 

[Jibba]

Well that seems like a pretty dirty thing to do.

-slim- didnt you post a soccer play and compared it to the indy colts against a high school team and said you were SERIOUS. IT LOST JUST LIKE ALL YOUR PLAYS SINCE YOUVE BEEN BACK FROM YOUR CHEF GIG LOL AND NOW BACK IN THE KNOW. LMAO YOU'RE A QUEEN

Fucnluc is dead on with his assessment. The dude did not realize the game was in progress and now he is saying he was joking so he doesn't come across as a total idiot.
