Ok, I really think it is time Paul stops avoiding the fact that people on this site love to play poker, they love it so much they bet their hard-earned FG on it.

I understand every reason Paul has to deny supporting betting but I think we are capable.

I am not even asking for Jsp to sacrafice some of their mediators/trusted. We can handle ourselves, I would just like our own subforum.

Poker is just as big as any other sports subforum on this site.

People who love playing poker, also love betting FG.

We have our own system of Welchers, Meds, Trusted, Active betters etc. We would just like our own subforum to do it on.

Also maybe after it is made, we could have somebody sticky our Welcher/Med/Trusted/Active list for us, just so everybody can see.

We have our own process of getting somebody on the welcher list, need vivid proof, and if proven guilty, they go on the list. Once listed everybody in the forum looks out for each other by warning one another about them.

I just think that a Poker forum would be one of the more active sports subforum and we deserve our own.

So vote, if no, please post a reason why. Every vote no without a decent reason will be considered Void to me.

D2jsp does not support betting.

Yes I understand that, even so Paul lets this go on with no problems, its not like he is kept in the dark.

We are openly betting daily with next to no problems, other than welchers, but as I said we have our own system for that.

If you look in any of the sports forums pretty much all you see is betting. I don't see how this is any different than poker. People are going to bet fg regardless of d2jsp's position on it unless the mods start to crack down and I can't see that happening. Even if this forum wouldn't be set up to encourage betting, why can't we have one to discuss poker strategy and improve our games?

this is only the 1 millionth time someone has posted this

JSP does not support betting...PERIOD

Voted yes, because it is a game and there is also betting in the sports forums, why is it any different?

Gambling is illegal under the age of 21. I highly doubt everyone here is 21+.
Therefore, making it illegal to do, and Paul can get in trouble for condoning this.

False. Gambling in the US is 18 and that doesn't matter anyway. That's like trying to say that gambling in a video game is illegal if you're not 18...



Yeah, because that system is working so well. There's not a higher amount of welchers than any other forum and there's no issues with the people in charge of the list.

Gambling has different ages for different countries so some countries do have a 21 age limit.

Jsp doesn't support betting so this topic will be closed like countless others

pretty sure there are users out of US lol. you shud know why they have sports forums... it wasnt made for gambling
