Why do some find a need to rip a poster apart who has the balls to post his picks?

bigbet1234 · Apr 11, 2006

That is one reason I have avoided posting picks, for shit sakes if you have a losing couple weeks, or months for that matter. There is always some asshole there to tell you why you shouldn't have bet this or that. The whole time, this genius doesn't have the ball's to post his own picks.

We are all in it for the same reason, to make money. Why not give support in losing times, instead of grief.

Might I add we have some damn good capper here at the RX, and though some are starting off slow, I can assure you they will end the season in BLACK.

I am losing YTD in MLB right now, but will continue to post, all the way to the end, something I have not done before.

Who is busting your balls..I will clown on him

bigbet, alot of posters dont actually wager and it appears human nature enjoys kicking someone that is down. sad but true. even when posters win, they get bashed...

Because their losers who enjoy seeing people have a short term stay at their everyday level. You never hear Bill Gates call Warren Buffet and say hey nice stock picks today what are you down 1 or 2 billion this week. People who are happy with their place in life rarely have a need to mock or put someone down.

Some cappers likes to make a Big huge deal after a nice run and I think that get some people upset? Then they go on a losing streak and get bash.

this is just a theory why people bash, I'm only guessing.

Some of these posters who take the forum on their back so to speak...I don't know how they live with that pressure.

Anyone following them needs to realize up front they are human and if they lose it's their choice to follow or not.

At the same time, some of the posters who brag non stop about how good they are should tone in down some IMO....the more one brags the harder they fall and take abuse if they do fall on their sword.

Immaturity as a human being and as a sports bettor. SOmebody that has been doing this for years would not belittle somebody after a single losing week or even a losing season. This business of picking winners is no piece of cake.

.......on the flip side, some make plays on a consistent basis , w/o all the chest thumping, show a profit over the course of an entire season and the silence is deafining..............yet , when someone is losing , all of a sudden every two bit punk has a shot to take ............just seems assbackward and counter-productive to everyone's goal .......to make the cake!!! jmo

Funniest post in a long time blue!!!

Partly because it's true.

The way people post picks will kind of predict whether they will get bashed. There are a lot of guys who refer to records that aren't documented here, make crazy unit plays and chase when they're down, post LOCK or GUARENTEE in huge fonts, and bump their threads whenever they win, (or even better during games they are winning) - you do all that and you are pretty much inviting someone to knock you win or lose.

I actually see a lot of encouragement for people when they post losers or go on bad streaks here, I only noticed guys who were touts or scammers or getting caught in a lie being ripped here. maybe i need to be more observant

royalfan · Apr 12, 2006

mostly because they are miserable beings, sort of like Doc Mercer, having to be negative about everything.

Insiders · Apr 12, 2006

Good Topic.

IMO its those posters that post numbers that are just not out there.
The way the come across with the BIG FONTS is a good one also.
After actually winning a game that was posted before it started the Brag like it was a 10 game winning streak.
Constantly bumping their thread to the top for no reason whatsoever.
And speacking of records, they usually speak for themselves. As far as the accuracy goes some check Everyday.

It takes thick skin. Its all has to do with poor moneymanagement and bad attitudes.

Big Fonts? LoL
isn't that the best way to get attention?:toast:

Spot on! At least this is one of the reasons.

There is one particular basher who will never grow out of his diapers. Might be the biggest bitch on this site. He's at war every few weeks with someone, whining how they must be tout, yet he uses TOUT language in most of his posts.

I don't know why the powers that be let him stick around. It's like having a pile of dogshit on the sidewalk in front of your neighbor's house, and they never pick it up.

Anytime you can't make sense of a player's post, or it has tout language, or it throws out a game after it starts, or they make over 30 picks in a day...fade them over a season and you will make big $$$$$$$.
