One of the main things that keeps people coming back to this site is the poster originated contest.

The fantasy football contest . The survivor contest .

etc.....

Now I'm told that is no longer allowed in the offshore forum.

Whats the problem?

You don't like people visiting your site?

You don't like giving someone a reason to visit this place 17 weeks a year?

These self started poster originated contest is no threats to your sponsors , that's if you even still have any.

Its just another retarded move by the owners of this place.


I was planning on visiting this site everyday this football season for fantasy football and strike pools .

Now I see no reason whatsoever to do so.


And if you think these contest hurts the participation from the forum sponsored contest you would be wrong .

I believe that virtually every single player in the $500 fantasy league from last season also played in the Hilton contest .

Same can be said of other contest.

Just plain dumb.
Im not blaming the mods for this. Don't believe it's their fault .

Maybe I should have said ownership instead of management .

Anyway what a way to kill what's left of this place .

I know for me it was about the only reason I still visited.

i only have about 100 post
in the last 6 months or so.

I use to do that in 2 or 3 days.

I'm not a betting man. But if I was, I'd bet it has to do with risk management and making sure they are considered and information site and not a platform for/actively promoting gambling transactions.

Sorry man they are just as legally liable with this new rule as the old rule.

Just because posters originate a fantasy league in a different section of the website does not make that issue go away.

So if someone sells drugs or post illegal pictures in the community organization forum instead of the offshore forum that makes it ok ?

So now the offshore is dominated by someone who can't type English , and the other poster that has a training camp thread with 453 post and 452 of those post are from the thread starter .

So someone that can't type and the other poster that loves to post pictures nobody reads

Maybe the reason this is happening now is because the site is shrinking so rapidly that it just isn't worth the risk for them to have so much $ exchanging hands between posters and it being a gambling site. They just know it's basically over.

Whereas when the site was still making them a little $ it was a little more tolerable and something that you would try to encourage to get people here.

But that's just a guess.

isn't the solution just going to the sub forum you are looking for?

Would be interesting to know why Admin would remove Voluntarily a Sticky At Top for RX Contests NFL & College Football, remove what in essence was their very best Billboard that woiuld see: Most Views, Largest Amount of Eyeballs on that. 'Shocking Decision' a real Understatement. 'Puzzling Decision' also a massive understatement.
