Posters blaming posters for losing money.

[Journeyman]

Choptalk seems to be taking the blame for this and now I am seeing other shot takers chiming in, Budworth seems to enjoy this practice as much as anyone, I've seen him stalk Gynecolgist and Choptalk now Winning Streak with his goodbye thanks for ruining my life post.

To the posters who post a card daily (especially during baseball which is every day for 6 months) deserve thanks not criticism, it takes a lot to post a card daily, and then to be criticized for trying, or questioned about everything, or being blamed for someone losing their money, is 100% wrong!


....the people doing this are harming the sports forum.... funny how when someone wins there is very little praise, as soon as someone loses the shot takers come out of the woodwork.

I agree, you can go days winning with very few posts, but have alosing streak and you get a bunch of people posting in your thread. That being said 99% of the people replying to posts are great, but the 1% seem to be everywhere.

 

[CHOPTALK]

Thanks

 

[Journeyman]

The 1% is what draws attention...and are the problem, there is no upside to trying to post a winning card daily because of this, and its a shame.

Very little upside for sure. Got much more blame this season for losing this year than credit last year for winning.

By the way, even counting this year. Im still up 70 units lifetime on posted plays.

Chop did you even count the exhibition season? You were up in that too.

Its very disappointing to see people taking shots at longtime good posters, and it seems to be really heating up again now that baseball season is a couple months old.

Most of the shot takers never post a card themselves and never give praise but are ready to pounce as soon as they get the chance....I've seen Budworth doing this the past month or so and its wrong and will not be tolerated.

This will never end, not here, not there, not now, not ever! I call it transferance of responsibilty. It will always be easier to blame others instead of blaming ourselves, Chop has taken responsibilty for his loss, he doesn't deserve everyone else's.

 

[SSI]

dont let it bother you... most of the time, dont even read the crap.. just skip it..

 

[Dante]

The silliest stuff I have ever read is when people blame other posters for THERE LOSSES..YOU make your OWN decision on who to follow


..it has been happening for my 6 yrs posting here and im sure it will happen for 6 more..


completely RIDICULOUS....If your not prepared to LOSE the money you just bet on that game STOP GAMBLING AND SEEK HELP

Yoiu can make all the right % plays and sometimes the games just don't work out, that is just the way it is.

The -49 units for the baseball season is not counting the +20 units for spring training. Down -29 units in baseball for the season if you want to count spring ball.

Could the rx make a feature, whereas you could block annoyance posters from your thread? Ignore justs means the thread starter doesn't see the post. I think it would be great if we could block the annoyance posters, much like call block takes care of nuisance phone calls.
What does everyone think?

Been in this for some time and it a hard thing for sure.it not what have you done for me but what are you doing for me today.We all go on good and bad streaks,what i have a problem with is posters that go on a bad streaks and still posting 6 or more picks a day,imo this is a poster that is very new or one that do not know how to cut back until the games come his way.a lot of people get caught up in action and not making good decisions.you dont have to have a play down every day to make money.you dont have to have your name at the top of the page every day to be seen.baseball is a very long season and you not going to win at it every year,and if you think you are,you are fooling yourself.just my 2 cents.ck

Choptalk:

So you are down 3 dimes from the beginning of baseball and you are throwing the towell in? I know guys that have lost that 3 or 4 weeks straight and don't quit. I think this place has gotten to you because you allow the bitchers and criers to run you off your game. Me, I don't like quiters and didn't think you were one, take a moment to think about that.

To his credit he never brought up that fact he was up big in exhibition season...and no one else did either.

I admire the fact that he didn't i'm just saying he still got paid over 2 dimes for spring training, that count's imo.

 

[Walkdog]

i agree with your comments we are all trying to make a little coin none of us are trying to make anyone lose we dont need any of those weak people on this site

absolutely Journeyman...

this is the feeling I had on the Tribe last night...



btw... I put my $ where my mouth is...on my picks...


I find most of the bashers don't have the ba!!s to post their own picks...


just annoying little flies...<!-- / message -->

 

[SBBC]

This is a public forum- no matter what forum you go to- their will always be bashers. People who follow others and lose then blame them is just ridiculous.

It happens and as a previous poster said- just ignore it and move on.

Everyone makes their own decisions, and if you can't cap a game, and just try to follow others- you are in the wrong business.
