Actually it isn't. Just got a 5X WINNER as well. Thanks for your concern.
Merry Christmas to all! What a beautiful day it is.
I generally don't get involved in all the drama like what has been going on, but I decided to voice my 2 cents.
First, I am a member at a few forums and I like to read them to get some insight about games that I might not be seeing. I was a member at a pretty large forum like theRX and I had over 10,000 posts. It was a nice place to go and just bs about games and we had a lot of fun. I actually made many friends on there and have met quite a few of them in person.
That forum is still open but it has basically died because of similar bs that occured and many of us left because of the drama.
I think this whole issue is a joke BUT I still come here to laugh at the drama.
Now, my 2 cents - I followed PennyWise during his great run in baseball and am glad I did. He did a great job. When PW left and Mo started the other forum, I also joined that forum. I looked at it daily and made 5-10 posts, not alot I realize - but I did enjoy going there and seeing what other handicappers thoughts were about different games.
When Inky was posting PW's plays against PW's wishes, I thought it was wrong BUT it is not illegal, it is the internet, but I still did not think Inky should do it. But, he did. Again, not illegal as paid handicappers plays are posted here also. I just felt it was not right for Inky to do it as he was asked not to.
If others wanted to see PW's, all they had to do was join the other forum. I can understand why PW was upset, but what has transpired since then is also wrong.
I, like many others were "banned" from the other forum. Again, it is Mo's forum, so he can do what he feels. The explanation from John Crichton is that "things were being worked out" and that possibly, the forum would be open again to others besides the VIPs that have access to the plays, not only PW's but others as well.
Again, it is Mo's forum and he can do what he wants. But, in order for a forum to be successful, it needs members and views, and obviously, Mo's forum is not getting much of either at this time - at least not enough to make it successful.
However, as wrong as Mo, PW, and the other VIPs feel that Inky posting PWs plays here was wrong, it is also wrong for the VIPs of the other forum to come in here and gloat about any winners they have received from PW or any one else there.
If the VIPs feel what Inky did was "chickenshit" with PWs plays, how is it right for you VIPs to come here and gloat to the ones that were banned FOR NO REASON GIVEN, about all the winners being had at that site ?
To me, this whole thread is laughable and a joke but it does draw idiots like me who come in here basically to get a laugh.
But, coming in here gloating about winners that people, who had nothing to do with what Mo and PW were pissed at, don't have access to, is just as "chickenshit" as what Inky has done.
Just my 2 cents
