anyone reading this thread, i'd recommend not working with NYC's Finest. his conduct in this thread seems pretty shady. if you work with someone and bet line errors and those bets get canceled, it's totally unreasonable to expect the person you work with to pay you for the canceled wagers. this is simple stuff.
This stuff never happened with the old guys back in the day. Peeig, JB (the ringleader), calm, RSigley, rito, TomG, b00T, MT2R, Iowa!...say what you want about those guys, but none of them ever scammed.
When did things get this bad? Personally I think the death of this forum was when Poogs did a well and then turned it into begging for accounts. The old timers would have never done a thing like that.
I randomly decide to check this site after about 4 or 5 years and of course youre mentioning me AND giving your stupid, unsolicited, ill-informed opinion on a topic that has nothing to do with you. I actually went back and read my well and you asked multiple questions, engaged peacefully with me and said it was a good well. Now 5 years later when I'm long gone, you have something to say. And I asked for PPH accounts ONE time in my 9 page well. Acting like I was 'begging for accounts' and ruined the forum (lol) is beyond absurd but perfectly on brand for you.
Ya know, in the big group that was the 'old-school posters', I actually think you might have been the nut worst. All the other guys, Iowa, Thremp, Rsigs, Boot, TomG, Naj, etc, at least offered something. I really disliked some of those guys and vice versa, but I have to admit, I respected them. And they were all known for something. Iowa specialized in golf and gave out lots of plays and analysis. Thremp was insane but gave out tons of info on market theory and used to do really good NFL write ups now and then. Rsigs specialized in big data and modeling and was easily the GOAT here. Boot was a prop guy, TomG was a player prop/DFS master and gave out TONS of good info. He got into politics too which was always useful to read. I specialized in the PPH world and would argue that my well had more useful info than your entire post history. But what was your thing? I honestly cant think of a SINGLE noteworthy thing you ever posted. You specialized in sitting on the sidelines, never offering or risking anything and floating in and out of threads to give your stupid, snarky opinions. Literally the only things I can remember about you were that you moved to some weirdo **** hole country and once sent me a PM to get on my accounts. Then sent a wall of whiny text when I said no. You remind me of probably the second worst regular poster here of all time; LVR. Dude did nothing but complain. You wanted SO BAD to be part of the cool kids group on here yet they never respected you. I doubt they even remember you. You offer nothing yet have something smarmy to say about everything. I really cant stand people like you; a typical Sideline Charlie. You even mentioning me all this time later is bizarre.
In other news, whats up TomG? Glad to see you here sticking around after all this time. Is anyone else from the old days still here?
Looks a little dead in here which is sad. For the noobs, this place really used to be something special. Think of the absolute flame wars back in the day (starting from before my time). Thremp vs Ben. Thremp vs Perpetualczec (spelling, I know). Rsigs vs Ledoutwithbottomset (lol remember that one? Sigs got into his head like Ive never seen before.) Justin7 vs everyone. BillTheCop vs everyone.
We're talking 10+ pages of legit, top level sports bettor absolutely going to war with each other and leaving all kinds of nuggets behind. The one with Thremp vs Ben (I'm pretty sure) about teasing a 5 point NFL favorite comes to mind as one of the best threads of all time for information. The wars on here were the absolute best looking back.
I think having that dolt, that utter clown MicroBob be our mod for a while was actually the worst move we ever made and probably did mark the start of the end. He didnt get it here AT ALL and used to do goofy stuff all the time. One time he banned me for a while and wouldnt let me come back until I showed him pictures of my cat. Not even kidding. I never did and he finally let me back on, but that was the kind of stuff he did.
Anyway, gfy Holiday. Everyone else have a good one.
