As you can see by my post total, I generally sit back and take a lot in from this site without posting all too often. In general, I always felt the RX was a huge benefit to gamblers. I fully understand the site is in business to make money. That's the bottom line which each and every one of us posters must fully understand. The No. 1 reason this site exists is for the monetary benefit of the owners. THAT POINT SHOULD NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!
In any event, I have no problem at all with the intent of the site, and with the intent of RX ownership - they are supplying us, the gamblers, a valuable service and they in return make a profit. Sounds as though everyone is a winner.
That being said, I must seriously question the legitimacy of this site from this day forward. The entire BOS situation, and how it has been handled to this point, suggests the RX is simply looking out for itself WITHOUT CONCERN FOR ITS MEMBERS!
For the record, I have been involved with offshore wagering since 1997. Been with many books, and I feel very fortunate to be able to say I've never had payout issues with a single book. The RX advertisers I do business with include Cris, Pinnacle and Hollywood. I know enough to know these books are as solid as any books out there.
Now, imagine a newcomer to this site. He logs on, and immediately begins reading all the BS that has gone on with BOS. Is he simply going to choose another sportsbook from the advertised list? Or is he going to look elsewhere for suggestions? If I was a newbie who didn't know any better, I wouldn't take a chance on Pinnacle or Hollywood or BoDog. Why? BECAUSE THEY ADVERTISE HERE.....and the BOS situation suggests the RX does not concern itself in dealing with reputable books. In other words, if I were the owner of one of the other books listed at the top of this screen, I WOULD BE IRATE THAT I WAS LISTED WITH BOS!!!...
AS THINGS NOW STAND, ALLOWING BOS TO ADVERTISE ON THIS SITE IS ULTIMATELY HURTING EVERY OTHER BOOK WHICH ADVERTISES HERE!!
There have been so many issues with books in the past which ultimately led to scammmers and such. I have always been willing to give the benefit of the doubt to the books - and the majority of the time, the books were eventually justified. However, the BOS situation is an entirely different story. Red flags were raised long before it began advertising here. Those concerns SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED BEFORE THEIR BANNER WENT UP!!...AND THE BANNER SHOULD BE TAKEN DOWN UNTIL BOS MANAGEMENT IS WILLING TO ANSWER SOME VERY SIMPLE AND DIRECT QUESTIONS WHICH IT HAS FAILED TO DO SO.
As things now stand, a usually-very reliable site has taken the quick buck, which likely in the long run will prove to be costly. That this was allowed to happen suggests the RX is no longer a truly reliable watchdog source.
(And yes, I will continue logging on / posting. I feel as though I'm knowledgable enough to make correct decisions. However, for those who are new to offshore wagering and looking for reliable advice - I don't believe we can blame them for not currently trusting the advice of RX management.)
