I don't know about everyone else, but the forum was much better in the years that we had Bashes in Vegas....the once a year parties bought everyone together and you always knew the guys that were posting.....now all we have are a few internet tough guys or idiots that have never even met one poster in person...

Bottom Line....if there is a Bash next year, the forum would make great strides in getting better and have more traffic......

Agree that the Bashes helped bring everyone together. However I also feel that the RX has really lost a lot of the Posters that were pretty much into making Money wagering and not a lot of gossip etc. Sorry but guys like the General, journeyman, Woofdaddy, Shrink, fezzik, etc. etc. ...... they knew Sports and talked Sports !

Two things probably.

#1 You got older
#2 Forum looks the other way on race-baiting trash and allows them to take over this board because they inflate click numbers

I'll agree with age

The rx is like everything else in life, its what you make of it.

Ive been reading this forum since when Shrink still owned it, damn near 20 years, its pretty much the same from top to bottom.

Honestly its been worse.


Agree sir!!

A lot of times on here you will see a guy start a thread with a sports topic and get less than 3 responses.

Then there will be a 20 page thread on swingers or tv shows

I concur with most of the posts, I totally laugh at a couple of them.

I think it's a shame when somebody bringing or sharing capping data, even if it's only his opinion, leaves because they grow tired of dealing with trolls. Some posters need to be escorted out, especially if they bring nothing to the table in any forum.

As for a bash, let's get if on. We have multiple options. Vegas, obviously would be great. But AC or the Indians would work for some regional or local get togethers. I would like to meet many posters here

Damn, I can treat guys to any Uconn home game of your choice. (With a few exceptions of course :))

I have been coming here for >10 years. Sure the Rx has had it's ups and downs. We all miss Shrink. The emergence of Twitter and other social media has been hard on the concept but,….I STILL come here every day!

I have been a member here for 14 years. Back in the day this was the place to share picks and gather knowledge. Now it seems like it's full of young punks with brave mouths hiding behind a keyboard. Such a shame....
agree 100%

Criminally poor management and ownership that are way past the times.

Can you imagine if only .01 percent of the $$$
being spent by Draftkings, Fanduel...etc was spent here?

Guess my question for "THIS SORRYASS" place is ....WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE?

Cappers Mall...EOG (for God's sake)...Covers....SBR....Others...are WONDERFUL alternatives for your
old time experiences you can't seem to find at RX.

If you don't like it here....MOVE YOUR ASS somewhere else.
