When I did a little sportsbook, you always had a new complaint every week about something you didn't like, this format being a recurring complaint. It seemed like you never grasped that the sportsbook isn't made for you; it's a compromise between what is most convenient for the host and what bettors will use. Using closing lines and not having to post an image every morning saves a good bit of time and effort while protecting against major line shifts (biggest benefit is the host doesn't even have to check jsp until the end of the day)—that's a rule that is in place for the host and not necessarily for you. But of course, if you only think about this from your own perspective, then it's something to complain about.
The second line is a straw man argument that I am not making. I never said he (or anyone else) runs the sportsbook out of the goodness of his heart—there is definitely fg to be made. Even still, yes, the service is free: it costs you nothing whether you use it or not. There is no membership fee, so you are free to not use it and it won't even cost you a dime.
And while you may not believe it, there is a certain degree of generosity in hosting a sportsbook, considering the time and effort that goes into running it. I can only speak for myself in saying that I wouldn't have done it at all if I didn't like the people here, and I wouldn't have donated my profits if I cared about hoarding fg.
Okay sure I've had complaints and criticisms in the past. And as I recall many people including yourself agreed with them. In fact I seem to recall you doing things differently because of something I said.
If you're referring to giving fg back to community as name change bets well I'm not very greatful for that bc I can't remember who anyone is anymore.
And bro the fee is the vig, aka the juice. I thought that was clear.
