STD
01-23-2004, 09:10 PM
If you wanna enter an under 500 post tipsters league then quickly enter through this thread, with your predictions - closing time will be 1 hour before the Rumble - obviously this a bit short notice but I'm sure there are many of you who are new and want to rival the big boys with our very own cruiserweight league!
Who says that if you have under 500 posts you're not allowed to have the same fun as them huh! :D

BTW it may seem as if I've stolen Paranoid Rattlesnakes idea, so I'd just like to say that I don't mean to cause offence! All I know is that there are alot of new posters who would like to participate but were not allowed.

Here are the rules -
1)Its up to me if you make the deadline sufficiently
2)If you have over 500 posts now but didn't when the original tipsters league deadline elapsed then you may join but please notify me of this with your predictions!

There is a good reason that there is a 500 post minimum for the real tipsters league. This forum has at least 100 posters every month who sign up, post less than 10 times and then are never heard from again. I think it should be 1000 posts and 1 month minimum requirements to get in.

Sig to follow.

Maybe if they signed up to this they'd have a reason to stay, because all that ever happens to new users on this forum is that they get talked to like sh*t so feel compelled to leave

All users here were new once. We have nothing against new users. Retards we have a problem with, not new users. loopydate, for example, got welcomed with open arms because he didn't go typing crap, or trying to jump the queue to established competitions.

You're calling me a retard on the basis of 10 posts so either u are a spectacular judge of character, or you do have a problem with new posters! As for jumping the queue - is there a queue? if so I'll jump back in line, but otherwise just let me post something that I think is worthwhile!

Did I call you a retard? No. I'm talking about some of the newbies here. The "queue" is called waiting until you have enough posts to enter for certain things. And I can't see this lasting after No Way Out, but feel free to have a try.

Hi!

I'm still new here but I have lots of opinions, and I'm a big fan of sharing them :) Now, really, what does it hurt if these guys with under however many posts want to do this for fun? Its not hurting anybody. I'm not entering because this holds no interest to me, but it just seems to me that some of the elder posters are getting pissed because the new people aren't following "the rules". Furthermore aren't there less trivial things you can start an arguement over?

Despite the fact that I am in neither Tipster Leagues, I can say that Paranoid Rattlesnake's far better for any number of reason. If you have alot of posts (and I don't mean crap posts), it means that you have a more educated brain as far as wrestling goes, so you will make better predictions then others. Also, I'd join Paranoid's (if I met the requirements, which I don't) because he actually is educated himself, runs it well, and offers prizes. What is your basis for it? I think by you creating this, you're slapping people in the face by saying "You suck by the standards of normal people, so why not join us?" I mean, the only reason why I don't post so much is because I go to school from 8am - 6pm, and I go to sleep at 11pm so I actually get up in the morning. Usually, I don't post because this board usually (no offense) doesn't have anything I'm interested in posting about. There are days where I will go hog wild.

Oh by the way, I just made your reputation suck ass.

I don't know how many times I've said it, but I'll say it again, I don't want to cause offence with this league! I can't b in the other league neither can alot of others, so i'm offering to manage a league 4 the people who paranoid rattlesnake didn't let in! Obviously its gone down like a lead balloon but nevermind! thanks 4 th reputation points mate! :n:

just to defend STD here, just becoz u have under 500 posts doesnt mean you have less wrestling knowledge or opinions than someone who posts on here 200 times a day. For example, I used to post regularly on the old TPWW forums but since it was "refreshed" ive probably posted less than 10 times, due to decreased interest in reading the childish responses and arrogant remarks so often passed as intelligent posts on here, plus time restraints. Does that make me incapable of bringing anything to a wrestling discussion, simply because, in this incarnation of the TPWW forums, I haven't posted on a regular basis, despite my past history of posting on TPWW.net???

Also for the record, you roast STD as a newbie, but on the old TPWW forums, STD was a regular poster under a different name, so he has as much right to air his views or start threads as any other "regular" on this site

rant over.

I'm on the side of the 500+ people here even though I have less than 500 posts :( ... the 500 post limit is rather effective in making sure noobs don't come and just anyhow make predictions. It makes the league more credible and I don't really mind if I can't join, I'll just join when I get over 500 posts.
