    This place has gotten much better imo in recent weeks. Is it now the best gambling forum out there?

    EOG is the best IMO, RX is not bad either.

    They're trying too hard to be like other forums. However, more traffic is always better to them, even if it turns some of us off and lowers the standard. Ultimately, attracting more people into the pool is more important than maintaining the level of quality we'd grown accustomed to.

    They're trying to develop into something flashier, more "cool" and "dumbed down" if you will, and I don't know if that's what has ever attracted most of us or kept us here. To be perfectly honest, if things continue at this rate there will be another forum with a prime opportunity to step up and offer what SBR used to.

    Just my opinion, I think this place has great info and a lot of talent here. People know what there talking about. Guys like MOFOME, IMGV, CEE, WRIGLEY, TEAZEMAN, BALL RASH, TIMETOPAY, CRAZY, JJGOLD, BUZZ,Louisvillekid...... THIS LIST GOES ON AND ON... I am sure I am forgetting some but there are a lot of quality posters here.

    Sure, there are still some quality posters around, but it's becoming increasingly difficult to get to the intelligent posts with all the garbage filling up each subforum.

    Shit like this is just embarrassing (and it's become all too familiar around here of late):

    http://forum.sbrforum.com/nfl-handic...ants-baby.html

    Valuable posters have already been driven away, and it will only continue as the forum falls even further down the toilet.

    I have absolutely no problem with any of the posters you mentioned, but the majority of them are your boys that have come from other boards. The truth is, this forum was the best of its kind long before any of you arrived. Again, that's not your fault, and I like every poster you mentioned, but the quality certainly hasn't improved the last several weeks.

    It seems to me guys like 2Pac and Jamie UK are jealous or something of all the new posters. Those are the only 2 guys I see constantly posting garbage.... Everyone I mentioned posts about sports for the most part. I would like to get to know a lot of the old timers here I have heard nothing but good things.

    true, but sooner or later they will change too. You need the young and dumb crowd to make money.

    Gambling discussion is not very relevant to me, that's not really the reason I come here (except maybe to learn more about gamblin' math). I'm more interested in SBR's rating of the various sites and player comments as well, and how they go about trying to get player's funds returned when justified. It's a wild west out there and without this type of service I wouldn't have a clue.

    The main reason the forum on this website is relevant to me is to get a sense whether the people running the SBR show and determining the ratings are of sound mind and body (well sound mind anyway), so I'm glad some (maybe all?) of them post.
