    Default Is it me or the board is quieter after the gambling bill passed?

    Is it me or the board is quieter after the gambling bill passed? I think PostsPerDay index has dipped several times, no?

    Couldn't it be that the lines of gamblers are getting significantly thinner?

    A little slimmer, but EOG is flourishing and took over as the number 1 forum . RX is on the decline but still decent.

    MW is dying also

    Danny good point, this has been the worst year for gamblers in recent memory. If I can get the under in the Giants game I got all my money back from a horrible day yesterday. I have had more one day poundings this year more than any other.

    The sports forums are actually much busier such as the football forum. But yes, the passing of the bill has caused us to see a slight traffic dip on all of the SBR sites.

    Coach,
    Please not!
    I really like this forum, because this is the only forum left over where one finds serious posts in regards to how bookies deal with their clients. Maybe not so entertaining as the EOG, but very useful.

    Forums are definetely on the slow. Same guys post at all major forums. Most have noticed that this has come repetitive and are not wanting to waste their time. The bill is a great excuse to stop the posting and stop wasting their time. Its all over guys, its time to get a job!!!!

    SBR picks up some newbies but everywhere else I see the same names, add money drying up also.

    SBR has numerous products so a little bit of a slower forum does not hurt them like it does MW and EOG as that is all they have.

    It's a combination of things and I doubt the gaming bill has much to do with it....

    Most posters by now have gone bust....there is no point in posting on gaming forums if you aren't betting. It's been a complete reversal in the NFL this year. I am glad I finished the year strong.

    Take care fellows....

    That's another discussion but it is so obvious that he is the main factor that drives the number of posts/topics on the sbr forum. He can easily double the activity in this place.

    I think his presence is positive. If he wasn't posting here, I wouldn't be wasting my time on this place.
