ironic bc the people that welch are typically people that already have fg, especially the welchers that stick around here after the fact: madmartigan, evildeedz, Prone, etc.

i don't get why your jimmies are so rustled. did you get a name change bc i have no idea who you are lol

also, it takes a lot of time to get onto these lists. if someone takes a break (offseason) from betting, why should they lose their status just bc you're complaining about it?

the position is theirs to lose, but not because of a little inactivity. like ewok said, we have lives outside d2jsp

oh shit! DOUBLE POST!

So what's to stop someone active from welching somebody who actually cares about fg?

For example, someone active comes back from a 2year hiatus and posts bills -8 AC active/trusted everyone else upfront 10-15 min before game and goes AFK. (Going spread is bills -3)
Someone "unknown" comes in an only has 150. Knows he can't send to med as a bet would not be made. So he must upfront to someone who hasn't been around for 2years.

Let's say the active guy is online and wants unknown to send upfront or no bet etc. game starts in 5min and med hasn't responded in time so he sends upfront to active.


These situations are real and should be eliminated before they actually happen. I'm sure the tag won't hurt their egos as much if they don't even bet.

Then why exploit the system of rankings with someone who is not active have a fg that says they are active?
It's just stupid and opens room for exploration of new bettors.


*no need to get personal with this lol... I don't care if you know me or not. Just posting that the awarding of statuses needs to have an equal demerit ceremony to have value to the tags.

People are removed for inactivity.

some really awful hypotheticals used here. you're taking the system too seriously tbh.

people who are active enough on this site know who to bet with because of a rapport we develop over the course of the season. i only bet with people i know and trust. a tag doesn't change anything for me personally. the only situation that comes close to your insane analogy would be Prone. and i don't think we're all stupid enough to fall for a -8 bills line..



what are you getting at? how is that exploiting the system?

i didn't mean to make it personal, but seeing as i don't recall seeing you post up until this offseason, i am unsure as to why this bothers you so much

"If I'm not active/trusted then no one else should be!"
Just downloaded the status viewer and noticed how many people I've seen and wouldn't trust have tags and some of those guys are multis lol. Just making a suggestion that the forum could some sort of cleansing.
*had redskins -17 as the outlying bet but it could happen.


@TJ.
No offense but it could use some more work.

where did that quote come from, rofl

keep in mind that list is for MLB, NBA and NFL betting. not just one sport. a user might not be active here, but in other sports

Only posting this because I remember when there were ~50 combined trusted/med/actives and after eliminating more than half the actives some of them became welchers in 3weeks lol

The more I think about it, the entire thing is flawed and just really stupid. Only meds should remain
Not like we're offering a service to each other.
*nvm joshk21 guy from baseball is actually the only person who is offering a service lol



I'll nominate him for Trusted
