"The hollywood debate"

huggybear+ · Aug 26, 2004

Wasn't there just a so called "Watch Dog" meeting in vegas. Why are all these gossip rag sites all not on top of this situation. It seems they all want to with hold info from each other. ANd why do any of these sites talk to Sting about anything. And the soap opera goes on

Omitted your insults and name calling, as they will not be tolerated on these boards...FISH

Supposedly their Netteller was dry but funded yesterday and withdrawls will resume within 24 hours. Football around the corner, these guys aren't going anywhere, but if they get HIT HARD first couple weeks of football, look out.

HUGGY- First off, I was at the meeting and speaking directly from a players perspective, I for one am very thankful for the representives that showed up and came away with a renewed sense of how thankful we can all be for what they provide.

The members in attendance.....SBR, TheRX, LVA, and TOW all have tremendous devotion to the players of the offshore world.

Other players that attended would agree 100%.

As far as your HOLLYWOOD debate.........I personally have only seen one issue that was rasised by a poster INITIALS post.

If anything else arises, I can assure you 110% that the above mentioned sites will take notice and have the players best interest at heart.

Thank you

By the way, HOLLYWOOD has been a well respected sportsbook and a never slow-pay book for years and years.

TOW · Aug 26, 2004

Huggybear, silence doesn't mean that the "alleged" situation is not being monitored or scrutinized but also means that this so called "debate" is about a non issue.

As far as yesterday goes many, if not all, books have experienced problems with Neteller, and this primarily due to Neteller's technical problems.

As to Hollywood a delayed wire to Neteller is the ( additional ) reason for which a disservice has been brought to public attention.

As stated, if there is a serious issue, it will certainly come out soon enough.

huggybear+ · Aug 26, 2004

My main point is why do you guys stand by and allow STING to bash such a highly reputable book just for traffic on his site. SOmeone should smack that kid silly and maybe he will think twice before he slanders other books or people. Although the half-man might call the police on you. He has been known to work with the feds before.

Huggy,I wouldn't worry.Sting's site doesn't have much credibilty.It is the National Enquirer of the offshore world.

It is Judge, but I enjoy it anyways.

Im a sic****.

JudgeWapner · Aug 26, 2004

Fish,a lot of people enjoy reading the Enquirer,they just don't believe it.

I know that. But why does a book like pinnacle allow it's banner to be hung over there. Maybe it's just me..but I wouldn't want to be asscociated with that site. Pinny does transfers with hollywood. Obviously he gets books business and although we know not to believe what is posted over there...alot of people don't. So hollywood could be losing business because of his gossip.

Fishhead · Aug 26, 2004

But just like the Enquirer, bits and pieces are true.

BigGame · Aug 26, 2004

I may be wrong about this, but I think anyone who has a true "slow" story or who is sincerely concerned about Hollywood would show up at some places other than Sting's.

Fishhead · Aug 26, 2004

Big Game- Of course!

Also, as large as Hollywood is, you would have many posters complaining of slow-pays.

Which is clearly not the case here.

JudgeWapner · Aug 26, 2004

Huggy,I think books advertise at 911 because they get traffic. I'm sure The Enquirer gets alot of advertisers also. A book wouldn't care about the content of a site as long as there are plenty of hits. And this is how Sting gets hits.

huggybear+ · Aug 26, 2004

Ok guys..you are missing the point...How can these forums get advertisers such as pinny and skybook(all stings other books are shit) to not associate themselves with Sting. Hit him where it hurts..in his pocket..He doesn't seem to care about other people's pockets. If these books would come together to stop the nonsense he would stop doing it. By having a banner on his site...they condone it...

BigGame · Aug 26, 2004

Huggy Bizzle,

I agree in sentiment, but Pinny et al, must be making the decision that the pro's out way the con's (no pun intended) with advertising at Sting's. Also, Pinny might think that any negative press regarding other books only strengthens Pinny in the long run. I think the focus should be less on the books themselves, but more on the traffic/posters. If that place dries up like a weed, and the books realize their ad money is being wasted, the problem will take care of itself.

TheBone · Aug 26, 2004

4 quick points:

1) Hollywood has not had cash in neteller for atleast 3 days. They are not disputing this.

2) Top level books dont have this happen, ever.

3) They have made multiple promises about when the account would be funded and each time it hasnt happened.

4) Am I worried about getting stiffed by hollywood? No I am sure they will pay but they clearly dont deserve to be mentioned along side pinnacle, oly, or cris as a top level book.

OMNIVOROUS FROG · Aug 26, 2004

I think one of the problems here is when someone cries wolf, everybody runs to bring thier children in the house. In this case, everyone runs neteller and empties it. So when I just try to make one of normal withdrawals, it is empty. Not because they are having problems, but because of some rumors cause a panic withdrawal frenzy. They are in the process of wiring and replenishing as we debate this. I will follow up in 4 hours...Best Wishes...OF

The problem with this statement is Sting doesn't allow anyone to post..He bans everyone who knows anything and calls him out. Like Judge say..he gets the traffic...Like I said..someone needs to slap him silly and he will stop...Any takers..
