Why? Nothing at all illegal about talking about gambling for entertainment purposes.


No doubt, but the admins will have to be on constant lookout for assholes trying to abuse the "entertainment" purposes of the board similar to that of the Ticket Exchange. If I was Chicken, you have to tell me what is the payoff for me to have a board that needs constant monitoring. It would be more hassle for them then anything.

In fact, there are many us based message boards that exist soley talking about sports betting, though most of them suck.


Don't bet much so I wouldn't look at any boards. Why do they suck? Honestly, don't know and just curious?

It would be no different than the money board. Theoretically insider information and someone pumping and dumping a penny stock could occur, each of which carry a lot more legal issues than talking about sports betting.

You think some of the posters on these boards are vicious, it's taken to a whole new level on some of the betting websites. You could have a guy winning 60-70% of this games (which is unreal), and the second the guy picks one wrong people pile on the hate. From the bet threads I've seen on this board, none of that occurs. It seems like most folks here who participate are for the most part friendly, and you don't see the bickering you do in other places.

I dont understand why this needs to be monitored??

All that needs to be said in the rules of the thread is that it is not allowed to bet any money with other posters in the thread. It is just for discussion.

Im not arguing with you I just dont understand what really needs to be monitored hardcore.


It will bring a lot of traffic and ad revenue to the site.
