Yeah this should have been on the shameless thread....

Not having a pop at jackpotty or whatever it is, never been on there, never will. Everyone on here that posts on there seem decent enough people. As for Maverick, for someone who has a degree he doesn't appear to be very clever, or express any real intelligence.

At all.

He just likes to brag, and put others down to mask his own shortcomings, and make himself look intellectually impoverished.

If i can defend myself here, i suppose my post looks rather ignorant in some respects. I dont want to belittle other people's gambling problems, i mean i have been there in the past but was clever enough to know that long term you cannot win on roullette or b3's. I just feel sorry for the people who are degens, i know its not my problem but reading these stories sparked something in me.

A lot of my collegues in the game think im a sad bastard for reading these forums but i think they can be quite interesting to share gambling related stories. Although i love buddylove's videos i think maybe the promotion of these 500's is a bad thing. I would like to see some horror videos of him ploughing thousands through one just to show the bad side of these games.

I hope i havnt offended anyone with my post, im not a bad guy really. And perhaps i shouldnt boast about my fortunate position.

cheers guys, up early for a days work....hope you all have a good day..best of luck

Why not combine the 2 forums? Imagine the advertising revenue. Ha!

If Jackpotty used a different board/wasn't black then I probably would use it. I think this place would benefit from a VB board... But then that costs money.

Yeah that colour was almost impossible to read, especially on a bat phone.

You can customize it tho Rob. Mine is a nice orange and blue!!!

Can someone point me in the right direction? Where do you find the posts that have been made since your last visit? Can't find it?

BFK · Post by **BFK** » Tue Jan 18, 2011 9:42 am

Top right hand corner, just under shop, bank, games in the top box.

Its only on the home page when you first log on.

I joined up over a year and could'nt find it then, thats the reason i don't bother with it, no sign of games, bank etc? God knows?

BFK · Post by **BFK** » Tue Jan 18, 2011 9:49 am

I thought you meant this site!!!

Scott · Post by **Scott** » Tue Jan 18, 2011 9:51 am

Yeah, sorry my fault

ops: i mean jackpotty?

Perhaps it does'nt have a recent posts jobby? Can't be doing with going over the same posts again to find the latest ones.

Zetaboards is pretty basic so it's missing a lot of tools that a modern day forum has, although it does have an active topic button at the bottom of the page which is a similar tool.

I'm working on a new host but it's slow going, I don't wanna move the place and not know how to use the new server properly.
But the loading times are becoming a bitch & it takes an age to create a new board theme were as phpbb is done with the click of a button.

Fair enough mate, i was'nt having a pop either for the record

So do you run/own the site then Gambo?

Yes mate I used to help Mod the old jackpotforumsuk, I'm sure you remember Matt (JPFUK) posting in General here from time to time, well he decided 1 day to delete the place and disappear.

So I just had a little play around to see what I could create, and gone from there really. Managed to contact a few others from the old board via youtube and started all over again.

So yeah I created it but there's about 6 or 7 of us that have made it what it is.

Didn't take it as a pop mate no worrys Scott.

Whats wrong with black anyway ?

Most people moaned about the bright white winter theme.

There is a "posts sinse last visit" at the bottom of the board I think it is
