It doesnt really sound like Justin though. Yes he clamors for attention but he doesnt give off that "i'm a vip" or "i'm special" kind of vibe.
...Sounds more like one of Chops paid poster ideas.
This is a terrible idea. Too much of an "elitist" mentality.
It would be like a country club for power posters and vip's to segregate themselves from the common folks and newbies.
Would feel almost like you are asking REAL PLAYERS to discuss REAL gambling related topics. God...... that would be uncomfortable!
How about a serious gambling talk sub forum then? But you have to put it near the top where people will actually see it.
Good idea Reno. But doubt it would work. Everyone would post anyway and clutter it up.
You see 90+% of the posters on here are already only pretending to be players. They continually make little mistakes to give themselves away.
Not sometimes big mistakes like talking about LOCKS, inside information, and the always popular (most will recognize who does this) "Large for tonight". No money amount, no number of units, just full blown absolute bullshit.
Most people don't use these "dead give-a-ways". But sooner rather than later, they have subtle little "tells" that label them as just amusing themselves on the site. Never placed any serious action. Would shit themselves if they tried.

I had been posting for 7 months back in June of 2001 and getting kinda bored a bit, so I was thinking to myself, how can I make this place more fun to be at, seeing I will be hanging around here so often. So I decided to do something extremely different.. So I came up with a character by the name of BTJ. I have been around here now for almost 3 years, and I have had numerous posters email me in private asking me if I am BTJ... I have denied that now for all this time. I never even told any close poster, or even Clevfan, who was here for 3 days, so she doesnt even know. I figured if I tell one person, the whole world would find out, so I kept it hush... Well folks, here we are 3 years later, and I have decided that I can no longer keep it a secret. Yes folks, I am BEANTOWNJIM indeed, honest.., I really am.. I hope this doesnt ruin it for all you people that enjoyed this character, but I came forward today to tell you all because I think the character is starting to get old a bit, and I dont want to push him too far. It just might be time to walk away.. I cant believe I fooled all you losers out there for all these years.. How you boys were not able to figure this out, is beyond my imagination.. I really wanted to do this back in June of 2001 because I have always loved role playing and I always wanted to become an actor, and what better way to become one than to have practiced here at the forums. Ok folks, here is how I did it, now pay attention please. I have a friend who lives in Boston who I grew up with in Montreal.. He moved there 7 years ago, his name is really Jim.. Now this Jim does NOT gamble...Every night at 3 am, I send him all the emails of what I want him to say, and he just copies and pastes it before he goes to work in the morning. Everytime I wanted to post, I would email him and he would post it from his IP. This way, Russ or Ken can never figure out its me out of Montreal. If you guys noticed, didnt BTJ always mention Sick Gambler and Scotty Landau. I made him use my name, and bug that Landau..I used the CAPS all the time to try to screw up you losers so you dont figure me out, and it seemed to work. If you also noticed, BTJ always posted at 5 am, and never again all day as he worked his shift. The spelling mistakes and non commas and non periods were put there intentionanally. Meanwhile, I never went to bed before 5 am, as I sent him the emails of all the wacky posts to paste up before he goes to work. So now that you losers know the truth, I would like to thank you all for being the suckers you are and falling for this gag for several years. I really hope you all enjoyed it, and give me another 4 months, I will come up with even a better one that BTJ, but I need time, and I will make sure you all dont ever figure this one out, too. I hope I gave you all some laughs over the past years. I hope none of you took my racism of BTJ too seriously, as you all know it was all part of the game..Jim does NOT know Peter Gammons, nor does he golf, nor is he married to a lovely lady, nor does he ever go to Legal Seafoods, nor does he have a dog named Brownie, nor does he have a Russian neighbor. It was all part of the schtick. He is just a 34 year old kid who is single, doesnt gamble, and works 60 hrs a week. Id like to also say sorry to Russ and Ken of rx for making them really think that there really was a BTJ all these years...I hope you know I only did this for a joke and try to make the forums more interesting.. I just knew you guys would never pick it up, seeing the posts came from a Boston IP.. LOL... Thanks again for the fun memories, you suckers..... ANYBODY WHO DOESNT THINK THERE IS RACISM IN THIS COUNTRY IF YOUR SISTER WAS DATING PATRICK EWING,KEVIN GARNETT,BEN WALLACE,OR TOM BRADY WHO WOULD YOU WELCOME WITH OPEN ARMS |
