WillieBoy 713 Report post Posted March 7, 2020 The ongoing "pay your bets, deadbeat" and such are getting worse. If - management is going to allow even signature bets they have to step in and enforce things. A way to monitor them, maybe? And non pay-up after the event within a specified time - shut off their access for a time or forever. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pamela 1,334 Report post Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) Everyone should just put them on ignore. It’s essentially trolling and there’s no need to encourage it by giving even more attention.

JasonBryant 2,116 Report post Posted March 7, 2020 Report the posts, people. There's a report function. The mods can't delete what they don't know exists. Some threads get to 100 posts in an hour. It's not anyone's full-time gig. Everyone has the ability to self-police this and report it so people get notified. That function has been in place on this board for 10 years. It's at the top of every single post on the right side. 3 Gantry, Mphillips and MedicineMan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The betting crap is the tip of the iceberg. Jimmy has posted topics that flirt with being pure racism, made up “facts” about kids health and reported them as truth, etc, etc. Yeah the bet thing is annoying, but jimmy should’ve been gone long ago for other things. 2 pamela and TripNSweep reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The guy is an absolute NOT CLEVER TROLL. I feel like people continuing to hound him will eventually result in numerous JC Detractors being banned OR they finally man up and ban just ban the problem himself, JC.

MDogg 273 Report post Posted March 7, 2020 I’m one of the people he made a bet with and welshed. What specifically irks me is that the loser of the bet was to DONATE to various wrestling non-profits (an RTC in my case don’t remember the specific of the other bets he made). He didn’t and then he comes back and refuses to acknowledge or reply to anyone’s comments about whether or not he’s donated as he promised...which he didn’t. I’m also one of the people who have commented about it on his posts. I’ve probably made 4 comments about it over the past 2 weeks so it’s not like I’m spamming these message boards. It’s not something I plan on doing much longer. But I do think it’s a complete and total scumbag move. If he was supposed to Venmo/PayPal me money and welshed I would never have commented publicly about it...I’d just message him. But the fact he was supposed to donate to wrestling non-profits and didn’t even have the decency to just create a new username really irks me. It’s not something someone in this sort of “wrestling community” (or whatever you want to call it) should be able to do and get away with. He’s a certified POS and deserves the heat...but I understand it’s not something other people want to reas about forever and I don’t plan on doing it much longer (if at all). Most important point I want to reiterate: if these were personal bets and he owed ME and others money (as opposed to non-profits) I never wouldn’t have commented once.

TobusRex 2,108 Report post Posted March 8, 2020 How about this: how about the forum ban "gambling" if it results in this type of non-stop sniping? I don't have a dog in the fight, but it's getting on my nerves. Aren't there private forums you gambling guys can create just for gambling? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
