Mob.. I say one step further sadly you can't trust anyone on forums wether it's a dumb banning bet or real money one.. you have to be outside your mind to bet a poster real money on a gambling internet forum. I know a few posters for 10 yrs plus that's the only ones I trust and there aren't many .. I agree with your bottom line and say noone should trust anyone with any type of bet and then come crying when they don't pay to the forum ... Just my 2 centsMoral of the story.....never make a bet with someone you don't respect. Neither were going to uphold their end.
