Rep Betting is no longer allowed!

Just to make sure that this is spelled out correctly and completely for all members of the sports section…

Rep Betting is no longer allowed here at BB.com.

If you start a Rep Betting thread YOU WILL be infracted, your thread closed, and the possibility of Negs added into the mix for repeat offenders.

This rule has been put in place, as one piece of a larger effort to improve board rep quality.

On behalf of the rest of the Mod Staff I would like to thank you all in advance for embracing this policy change.

Thank You

"One morning I woke up and found my favorite pigeon, Julius, had died I was devastated and was gonna use his crate as my stickball bat to honor him. I left the crate on my stoop and went in to get something and I returned to see the sanitation man put the crate into the crusher. I rushed him and caught him flush on the temple with a titanic right hand he was out cold, convulsing on the floor like an infantile retard." -Mike Tyson

for the integrity of reps, i agree. people could get big reps just for luck
When it comes to the NHL thread I'm the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be.

So because there has been someone crying about getting neg bombed you guys decided to close down the rep betting section?

Strong logic.

Odd that this decision was made at 3:45 pm EDT on a Wednesday. In time for the NFL season maybe?

You got crews which trade reps on a daily basis too. What's going to be done about that 'cas nothing has been done about that and it's pretty clear to everyone now.

Could care less, to be honest. I think I did one or two "rep bets".

For me, I'd much rather bet green money on games than little green blocks.

This won't change much. People will still rep their friends and neg train/rep train people. It will just be on the downlow even more now.

You couldn't have left the Fantasy section open to talk Fantasy sports?

what good would that do? theres always gonna be people who dont follow those rules and if you think this newfound system of tattle-taling "rep system abuse", as if it matters, is going to change that well….i doubt it.

LOL you think I cared about that? I just thought it was funny how mods would ban people forever for making a rep trade thread, but there was an entire section dedicated to the same thing and they didnt even realize it, it literally bothered me that the site was being run by people that were THAT DENSE that they didnt even realize how hypocritical they were being. The hypocrisy is what annoyed me, not the reps lol.
