Havent been around for a few weeks and noticed GimmeDat is gone also....I know the whole HD saga but didn't see where Gimme went or what happened. I normally wouldnt post but there is nothing going on in here at this time anyway. Seems like there are some others missing too havent seen Paddywack either.

paddywack has been around. HD is posting somewhere else now.
He comes in here every once in a while, but he doesn't post his plays. Not sure about GimmeDat.

What happens is they lose one day and everyone pisses on them and they get mad and leave. It's happened to a lot of good cappers on here.

People think that once you start posting a lot of winners then you should win every day. Basically the people with bad money management has ran off a lot of good cappers

Agreed, it is a shame that it is that way, but I want everyone on the site to also know that I think there are lot more posters that
view picks and use them for purposes to beat the book than the
haters out there. Also noticed that many of the haters are new members and seem to have the mind of a 12 year old.

Just my take, I post plays here more for myself and to see how I do personally.

Haters: The Problem and the Solution

The haters with low post counts could be professional disruptors working to a hidden agenda.

I'll leave it to our collective imagination who might be most interested in running winning cappers off a popular open source sports betting forum.

I've seen some of the smarter cappers on here learn to identify and ignore any post which they feel was meant to get under their skin. I really do feel that's the best solution to the problem. Nothing shows a hater up more than when a post which has clearly been made to agitate, ends up getting lost in the shuffle between more meaningful posts.

I think some cappers feel a need or simply want to be helpful by nature, so they like to respond to everybody in thread out of courtesy. This is an admirable quality, however on occasion it can leave them open to being caiught up in negative exchanges.

To mirror what maximus was saying.......Although I started a CBB thread for my own purposes this year, I generally havn't posted very often in the past; however, during the two plus years that I've been on this site I have come here nearly everyday to look for any good, useful info.

As to the serious cappers that are seemingly no longer around, I think it's shitty that people are crittical of them at times, and admittidly people can cross the line at times; however, IMO, you are a pussy and have problems if you let 'haters' affect you to the extent of dropping off a board, much less actually getting mad about it. Somewhat has the feel of the kiddies who don't want to share their toys, throw tantrums, and run home to mommy pouting when they don't get their way. If you are a PROFESSIONAL capper, then f* those who are critical and just do your thing!

Btw, what "other sites" are out there where these guys may be transferring to? I hear people throw it out there all the time, but no one ever gives the name(s) of the sites.

Thanks in advance, georgiasluke.

Yeah some of the regular cappers usually go to other forums (i.e. Panther). This forum has lots of newbies and some of them get pissed when they follow someone's plays and lose.

there are a lot of good and useful sites. We are not suppose to mention them here in this forum ... that is why people don't name the names.

:think2:
I didn't realize it was against the law to mention a website to someone, it's not like the RX charges a membership fee and is subject to losing people to other sites or anything, but I won't question forum policy I guess.

However, JBRAGG - without referring to particular names of sites, please advise as to what phrases I might could 'google' to at least get me headed in the right direction in this matter. Thanks bro, georgiasluke.

Not sure but I think they have advertisers to answer to if their hits are down! :think2:
