Ignore the cheesy title for now but once a week or so I will bring up into focus a book having trouble paying the players. One of the complaints I had as a player reading the forums was it was too hard to keep up with everything. Books that look to take shots at players count on that. Gee Irish you didn't see that thread last month on XXX book not paying people? Amazingly a book not paying can have a 100 response thread here but soon it fades off the front pages and is forgotten by many of the readers. That doesn't even take into account new players who may sign up as well. Players can't surf these forums 24 hours a day and even then retain all they read from months back. We need to keep bad books in the spotlight so to speak. After you make the list you will always be on it.
On this site I will be bringing up recent cases of slow paying books and not only post it here but also link it in the forum which is the most active at that time of the year. For instance since a book may be interested in recruiting players who bet baseball I will copy and paste this to that forum as well. I want to hit as many readers/potential post up players as we can. Some readers participate in our busy pick forums by reading picks or dropping off their own but don't visit off-shore, we'll take the message to them. With so many good books we have here there is no reason to gamble with one of these sort of places. Books that scam the players hurt every one one of us. Hurts the players obviously who lose their money, hurts us the watchdog sites who try and keep up with them, and also hurts the legit books who always have paid and always will pay you. In short it hurts the industry. With that in mind if any other site wants to copy this for their forum I have no problems with it. The more we work together the better it will be for all of us. First entry coming up soon.....
BTW this will focus on active books still trying to get post up money. Books who have already gone down will not be the subject of these posts.
