So I was banned for questioning a posters posted lines

[reelhooker]

Is this common practice that you get banned when you question a posters lines he posts on a particular event or does this poster (railbird) work here and needs to be protected ?

Just asking a question:howdy:

 

[WVU]

how are you banned if you are posting?

 

[Doug]

How do you post if banned ?

RB moves lines on stuff like High School football, golf props, little league,etc.

 

[reelhooker]

it was a 2 week ban

maybe asking this question will get me permanently banned.

who knows what one can and cannot say

WVU & Doug, reel hooker said he "was" banned (for a short time, apparently).

reel hooker, you weren't banned for questioning a poster's lines. You were apparently banned for name calling as evidenced in this post:

I think those posts speak for itself on why a moderator banned you for a while.

Even though I understand how people were frustrated on whether Railbird got the Little League lines from a book (and Railbird is concerned that if he shares that information, then there would be no more LL lines, etc).

[reelhooker]

right calvin if saying someone is kookoo for posting bogus lines and not backing them up is calling names I am guilty as OJ

 

[steaktartar]

lol kookoo

 

[reelhooker]

what would you call someone that posts bogus lines and doesn't accept wagers on them ?

 

[maxdemo]

all of this about LL lines????

 

[WVU]

IMO you are allowed to call someone out. Kookoo is not name calling. Rail threads are interesting in that you get both sides of the coin responding. You will get Rail worshippers who want his next tennis play and Rail bashers who want to get the same lines Rail gets which in all likelihood do not exist.

 

[wilheim]

Reel Hooker this is the post that earned you the two week banning.

Please either learn how to post with at least a small amount of courtesy or do not post at all here in the Offshore Forum. Namecalling and Bashing will not be tolerated in any of our moderated forums.

"3-0 now Raildouche

nice to come in after they take the lead and talk shit right?

:howdy:

do us all a favor and just shut your trap and don't post anymore lines if you're not taking action"


Railbird, like him or not is a long time contributer to this forum and should not be subject to namecalling and ridicule just like any other poster here on The Offshore Forum. Especially from someone who was on the site about 7 days at the time.


Thank you, wilheim

If nothing else, that was good.

[reelhooker]

I guess calling someone a bookie (that's when someone posts a line and backs it up by taking action) can also be considered "calling names" right ?

Just trying to understand some things here

 

[royalfan]

Just let it go man. Rail was being stupid acting like he had plays on those games at those imaginary lines. He was probably just frustrated that no books had lines this year, much like I was. Just his way of taking out his frustration.

a buddy of mine was kicked out of a mens softball game (no Railbird did not have a prediciton on that game) for calling the Ref a "Cheese Wizard"

therefore Id say "kookoo" is worth a 2 week benching yes.

 

[Doug]

How is RB supposed to book it ? You want to follow him and have him take the action ? It's illegal also.

this may be thread worthy on its own............ask your buddy what he meant by cheese wizard

 

[theticket_22]

So if a person posts a line on a game, he has to book the action on a forum to make it legit....listen man, you just started posting here a month ago -minus the 2 week ban...if you continually bash someone in their thread you will get banned, there's warnings posted all the time about it....If you wanna complain about him go to the rubber room, i'm sure you'll find others that will chime right in with you.

Like I said I'm just trying to understand some things here. Was just surprised I tried to respond to a thread I could have really helped someone out with a problem they had and noticed I was banned for some "minor incident".

anyway the side he had fovorite and was leading 3-0 after 2 innings ended up losing 10-3 which was the side I wanted to bet from -140 from team A all the way to -200 for team B.

maybe it was a good thing for him he don't take action

Re read your own words - what to you call "Raildouche" a compliment.

You registered at The Rx.com Aug. 9th and on August 17th are calling a 7 year contributer to the site a douchebag. What do you expect to happen.
