suggestion to lva

suggestion to lva this place is headed in the wrong direction. we all dont have the same common goal i feel, which is, to learn, give back, and cash. not sure how many others feel this way.

I have not been on here long, but i totally agree with you on your observation. Like alot of other forums, there seems to be alot of "sore losers" who have nothing better to do than bad mouth other people and act like Grade School kids. I'm probably done with this place when my subscription expires. I have better thing's to do than argue with people who can't hit the Atlantic Ocean with any of their picks. I'm glad you brought this thought out, because i was going to say the same thing and recommend to the people that own the site to make it more a "professional" and fun place to visit and talk about capping/wagering, rather than bringing it down to a "school yard" or "Romper Room" atmosphere. The proprietors of this site need to re-evaluate what kind of Forum they want and is best for their future success. Best of Luck!

Basically i feel like this place was marketed in the wrong way. Should not have marketed it as "fezzik" the members that want to be here and dont mind paying to be here are not here for "fezzik" if it meant a lot, you should have let members realize this on their own that fezzik only posts here. this way the people only here for fezzik can have nothing to complain about. the removal of the people that rely on fezzik's last breathe will make this a good place. im not saying a thing bad about the fezzik, as i am also here for insight, but the "kids" here for him only derail my path to the common goal. theres too much to learn. good bets can lose also.

Just do what I do - ignore the trolls. Yes they make comments against me too and want me to prove every molecule of my being when I post something, as if I am a liar. I did try to put stuff here, but was not able to, and am not going to spend 48 hours just to print up bets I made. Someone did not like my Dallas over the Ain'ts that Saturday game. There is ALWAYS gonna be someone to stamp the " I told ya so" when your pick(s) lose, and give you NO CREDIT when you pick a winner( and many more later). The type of trolls I am describing above are NOT going to learn anything, period. They are consciously or sub-consciously here for other reasons. A few do not like Fezzik for whatever reason(s). They pick apart his posts and words instead of learning from his actions. The trolls pick arguments with Fezz and anyone else they feel that they can "rile up" or whatever. I hated that free forum where there were MANY trolls there chasing Fezzik and others. However, if they want to spend $25.00 per month to troll here, let them. If we all ignore the trolls, they can troll away and we can just sit back and ignore them, and gather our tid-bits that WE came here for in the first place. At least Fezz gets back on here and is sorry for missing a pick or two. Fezz shows class when he can. Trolls do not have class. Enough of this for now. Let's enjoy our world here and make the most of it. IMSM

I think you'll find that the fact that people don't trust someone who says "I'm 15-0 in CFB so far, here are my picks" when 4 of the games have already concluded isn't unique to this board.

[QUOTE=roll your own;14497]this place is headed in the wrong direction.[/QUOTE] Ummm, where is the suggestion? Without Fezzik, what is special about this board compared to other forums?

[QUOTE=KimLee;14524]Ummm, where is the suggestion? Without Fezzik, what is special about this board compared to other forums?[/QUOTE] the fact that you have to pay. we all pay and SHOULD have a vested interest. if you enjoy non sense, you can go to many various other forums where you dont have to pay. same principals of being a member of a country club.

[QUOTE=roll your own;14502]Basically i feel like this place was marketed in the wrong way. Should not have marketed it as "fezzik" [/QUOTE] Don't think that's going to change now... Didnt you get the LVA email last night? It describes Fezzik as a "Las Vegas sports-betting legend." I think they'll take the $25 however they can get it.

I will aggressively recruiting top minds for this board......... We arlready have a great group, but I will be expading it.
