Yeah my reason for bringing this up is to advocate for a bit more patience than what many used two weeks ago.

You claimed I acted inappropriately, which I obviously didn't and you have now dropped that accusation and moved onto some other nitpickery. Two more weeks till you leave the thread for 8 months. Can't ****ing wait.
You (not me) claimed full transparency. You (not me) said that anyone could tell you rolled 2184. You (not me) posted a list of numbers that showed -4123 in balances and never updated it. Which, even if updated with payment to sterfry, still show rolls of 2986, which still doesn't match your claimed total. Finally, you (not me) PM'ed multiple people who you had small positive balances super early in the week (I mean seriously, 1 AM Monday night for a 230 tab? lololol) looking to settle. If those things happened with someone else, and the next week that person disappeared, you'd be the first person losing your effing mind.

My point was very simple. The thread needs to be better about not rolling tabs. You had an entire week to choose to settle the 4123 outstanding debts you had. You chose not to, then you disappeared. Placing the entire brunt of blame on the thread for freaking out as a result is misguided. <fin>

I actually have been thinking about this for a while. If you allow somebody to roll, there should be a period of time where you are now responsible for that debt. No unswapping it because you decided to let it roll for whatever time period we establish. I'm sure I'm in the minority here, but I think it would help in holding people accountable and also preventing situations like we have had in the past.

i agree with this

rolling puts yourself at risk, shouldn't put the rest of the thread

i was also under the assumption that we settled everything <$200 every week, which that clearly isn't happening either

Again, you're missing the forest for the trees, Mr. Gump. It's the creditor's responsibility to initiate settlement, not the debtor's. I clearly did nothing wrong. You're throwing a bunch of darts and seeing what sticks. None of them are.

And again, Billy, my concern was saying that we need to give more time than y'all did going forward whether it's me, you or someone else. That should be fairly obvious. I'm not going to take responsibility for not initiating payment with ppl. That's not protocol.

i also agree with this - myself included

and this, if you're owed and want payment, it's your job to PM to get settled, if you guys wanna roll thousands in balances, that's on you, like eddy said

Your inability to self-reflect and take any responsibility for your own actions or lack thereof is making me regret being one of the primary people preaching patience.

Billy has all valid points and very accurate in his statements above even with evidence (very rare for the thread).

AP, what the issue is?
Regardless of a reason of you been MIA for a week with -3-4K tab you should be treated as any other reg doing the same. The facts are facts.....

Nobody knows what exactly happened to you, different sources mention different things, on of which you were in hospital.
Since You are not saying anything regarding what actually happened I guess it is either nothing to be proud of or something which should not be public, or both....
Just blindly getting waivers in situations like this sets the negative expectations for other regs, many of us may take week off from betting and paying especially on down weeks.

What patience we are talking about?
MIA with negative balances should always be alerted as soon as possible, and reaching out to these people as soon as possible....

Please do not confuse with posting numbers late, but active itt with statements like: "will pay everyone owed, pm me balances"....

I have self-reflected. I firmly believe it's the creditor's responsibility to reach out regarding payments. Which is what I did and is how the thread has always operated. You really believe I should take responsibility for others letting me roll negative balances? Lmao. Get a clue.

Okay, if you're of the belief that it's the responsibility of others to ensure your debts are settled (I disagree with that statement, btw, and my actions such as already reaching out to PO to get his PP today prior to all of this indicate) are you also of the belief that it's fine to request payment for debts to be sent outside the thread when you're down way more than that amount in the thread?

I think you have got your point across and the majority (if not every respondent) agrees with you. This point is dead

Very interested to hear the answer to this question which you seem to be dodging. Probably the biggest red flag which could be cleared up with a non trolling response.

Bizzle was on your side throughout what transpired; try not to look past that.
