Copy a standard disclaimer, edit it for these forums and then send to njag for sticky.

I might just ask if that would be ok.


Do it, it would help this forum alot

it just pisses them off... the poker forum tries like 24/7


this site won't do anything to encourage betting and even asked us to NOT publish the bettor image in threads, as it could considered encouraging betting

Well, I know that technically it's impossible to enforce anything like that perfectly, but he could definitely put an end to it as we know it today. Most all betting would have to take place via pm, and those that didn't take place via pm would be subject to punishment. Even pm bets could be punished depending on what notes were put in the gold log.

We bet on a daily basis around here even though njag says his website doesn't endorse such activity. A way would be found IMO.

I understand what you're getting at though and I'm grateful for the system we have now.

Could just start locking people that bet, claim its in violation of the site rules... sure some would get away, but it would drop the majority of it


FG would go up in value once all those poker players with 100,000 get locked, or quit the site out of rage, and everyone that doesn't bet wins....

None the less, I am not inclined to press the issue, I am happy to sit here on the back burner getting +1's bumping Lncarn's threads cuz gg

Besides, the majority if idiots won't read these even if stickied.... only somewhat intelligent people bother to read them, and those are usually the people that don't cause problems
