unlike Other forums....

there is a 2 HOUR window where posters are kept online... Not the 24 Hour+ that others use.

I once signed into SBR and was still signed in for 4 Days

so I understand what you are talking about... but We Don't do that here.

and if you Don't believe me ... Try it and time it

I went to one forum where you cannot even access the forum unless you are logged in.

the stat was something like 50 members (of course they list all handles)....and then there were 2,000 or so guests/visitors....I dont' even see how that is possible


I also believe if I go to therxforum, I'm a guest, I login now I'm a guest AND a member....totally misleading

This is by far the best Sports Forum around. Not even close.

I agree. I have to admit, I broke down and tried another site awhile back, and I didn't get past the first day before I quit posting.

I found therx 4 years ago somehow, and i'm glad it's the first one I ever checked out because if it wasn't, i don't know if I would post at all on a sports forum.

This site, and others like it, will always be around, because:

1. Even if it's limited, there will always be Offshore Books/Casinos/etc.
2. People are always going to gamble
3. There would be no reason to shut this site and/or others like it down, when the day is going to eventually come in which some things get passed.
Yes it may be a while, but it would be foolish for sites like this to shut down completely, then the day comes that things become legal, or at least get easier again, and everything was basically forfeited to new sites who burst onto the scene and steal the thunder and sponsors.

Endure...

Heh, I tried the site across the street, you know the one... just 3 letters. I lasted maybe 2 weeks at the end of the NFL season this year, and poisted maybe 4 posts lol. That place is harsh, like the Wild West. And that was the second time I went to that site.

the first time, I made my account and logged in, was bouncing around for a few minutes, and decided to respond to a post. Then WHAM!! Out of nowhere my account was locked, and I was banned "Im like WTF!!", but they have an option to chat live with a moderator. So I clicked it, and asked why I was banned, there must be some mistake. Some mod named Sherri or Sherry says "Your name is a tout name, and we don't allow that here" (same name I use here exactly). Im like, no, Im not a tout, Im on another forum as well if you want to see that I don't tout at all. She says "I don't need to do that, I know a tout when I see one".... Just like that, she wouldn't even listen, just banned me, and I didn't even post a single thing.

So Im here for life, this place is great, the mods are great and most of the posters are entertaining.

And BTW, Im glad none of our mods are like Obama, and wanting to spread the wealth around. I like my green bars, and I don't want mine taken away and given to someone else.

SMH. I don't understand that at all. Like you said, it's a place you have to have thick skin, but at the same time they are so quick with the ban button. I want to respect them but it's hard. Their loss NFLTrends, glad you are here!

My opinion is this place is turning into a lot of old time posters with no new ones. We will all slowly die off...

Great place to talk about the past.

If you have posters posting free winners in the sports forums, you'll always be a top-notch forum.
