If you want a good laugh go read that forum, its full of wanabee players, degens playing roullete and ppl slotting 500's comedy gold. one guy lost 200 forcing out a 70 cashpot on 25p stake. you dont know whether to laugh or cry, these wanabees are where our profit comes from

I think it's amusing how people get so wrapped up in gambling, to the extent where they enthuse about what machine is on their favourite tv show. Actually its very depressing, and a bit worrying.

Seems some decent profit still comes from there so it's win win. Why complain?
I mean, there are so many things that can turn in favour. You say the memberbase might be laughable...but actually what can be so bad about accepting that they love a good gamble on whatever? L:east we're not degenerate enough to get caught up in the game so badly that we laugh at people for playing such and such. Infact that's how a decent amount of memberbase has been brought up!

And it's not exactly like the talents of FC are completely stainless steel. The antics John32, and another name who has told a Jackpotty member to keep out of their area lately...Are they bricking it that much that threat of a Jackpotty member out on a gamble playing their machines means hunger for a week??? As for the TV shows jab, don't think that this place is clean from that either. Infact it's one further to nab pictures of social networking sites for machines...Now that's supposed to be more private than mainstream TV shows!

Either way I still believe Jackpotty is a much more sociable place for any gamblers of any stage. We have a laugh, make friends, not get ridiculed by the other members because we're not great at skills etc or get something wrong. We have a laugh and tell the tales of what's happened now and again, and more regular meets are happening, we love a social time with fruit machines as a bonus. Maybe that's something to think about on the next lonesome servy run or barring.

Not saying everyone here is bad, there are some good honest posts to read and reflect on. But taking the piss of other forums which aren'tcspecifically built in the same purpose as this one just gets to me

In one of the latest Only Fools and Horses episodes(I think it's the one where Delboy almost gets a vasectomy, or maybe he gets one. I can't remember.) They have a Tik Tak Cash in the cafe. Would like to play one of them!

Good post cap'n tatty.


Maverick,it's these kind of self important opinions that have stopped regular posters wanting to visit this site in the past ,and also stops a lot of people posting in the first place.

Tbh ,I've only ever had a look at potty a couple of times but I bet it's safe to say that people are allowed to post over there without fear of ignorant cunts ridiculing them.

Potty forums has a much nicer feel about it than Fruitchat without a doubt. No-one on their is or claims to be a "pro", they are just a group of people who enjoy a "real gamble" and have a bit of banter amongst each other. There are too many on here claiming to be a "pro" who simply are not and try to proove their claim by belittling sound guys who are just inexperienced and looking for a little help here and there on their adventures. Anyone who does not care to help out or can't help out should not bother posting derogatory comments instead.

Unfortunately all sites attract trolls. We do try and moderate the worst, but society in general seems to have developed a bad attitude to life. Plenty of room for both sites, IMHO.

Their is nothing you can do about it Harry, their are just tons of people with bad attitudes and it just gets worse every year. Maybe it would help if the sites had an ignore this user feature but otherwise there are just far too many users for any moderator to handle.

Thanks for the free advertisement Maverick, but it's spelt with 1 "R" not 2

I think the words "pot kettle black" spring to mind with regards to the majority of your posts tbh.

Both sites are spot on for me, just some of the people that post is the problem on both sites but more so here.

most of the members here are potty members so are these all wannabees too ?

just because pro's choose not to post dont mean theyre not there.
and just because people dont post about exclusive stuff doesnt mean they dont know any.

you made yourself look like a penis making this thread :/

As did Lugsy when he dug up the old monop thread.

Priceless!!!!
