The point is to be able to debate with people we already know, all while keeping everything in one single place.
This is just for casual conversation. We aren't robots. There are no strict rules here, other than the standard requirement to be respectful.
boldhound8 said:Anyway, the newer guys might not remember, but the Betting sub-forum was created specifically to pull all those scattered threads from every corner of the site into one single spot—that’s literally the entire point of having a sub-forum.
Starting a new betting thread here wouldn't break the concept of the Betting sub-forum (IMF), but it raises a massive question: what's even the point?🤷 If we're using the logic of keeping things "local" so people don't have to wander around, then fine, let's just open an IT topic or a US topic under the Football section too. I mean, why the hell should I go over to the US board just because I'm single? If I'm a local here, I stay here.😁
Personally, I don't care either way, I just wanted to remind everyone how the Betting sub-forum actually came to be.🙂 As far as I'm concerned, you can open 22 different betting threads if you want...
Don't tell me your love life is just as tied to gambling as football is.

You probably haven't been lurking in the IMF Betting section for long enough, so let me break it down for you—and explain why everyone seems so terrified of the moderator, acting like he's some kind of boogeyman.
Because back in the day—like, a year or two ago—this place actually had that classic old-school forum vibe...
AC Milan to win both ways at 1.37
PSG handicap at 1.43
Real Madrid win at 1.02
$133, bet the house on it☕
Milan's gonna screw you over🙂
They won't.
And that's it—thanks for nothing—that style of posting is ancient history. Anyone who still wants to write like that should probably just go find some other bottom-tier trash site to hang out on.
I don't get what the issue is.
You want to jump into a thread like Dinamo’s LP group? There isn't room for two constructive posts there. It makes no sense. You can't mention what you bought or why you bought it, give a little brag later, or even vent about needing a smoke. There just isn't any space for it.
Are you interested in consulting with people here? Just asking, since you're already reading this subforum.
Morgan Williams said:@feralotter2, if we let people just post random picks like that, the place would be crawling with trolls spamming useless predictions. Then, when they actually get lucky by accident, you'll see everyone acting like they're ☕Nostradamus himself.
I don't know much about how these betting sites operate, so I'm basing this on what I've seen in previous threads here. I'll give my thoughts on the Example once I'm back at my desk.
And?
We’re getting to a point where even putting a period at the end of a sentence will be called trolling. It's just another vague term people use to manipulate things subjectively.

Dennis Evans6 is at it again, even though it's only Tuesday!
The truth is, the moderators just don't want to deal with managing another thread. That's the real issue, and people are just afraid to say it plainly.
