Recently this forum has gone down hill a bit with all the ridiculous beg threads, the affiliate digs and the digs at other members like thisgirl or the many others who are just having a vent.. Although it always seems to be $0 – $5 members doing it..
I was thinking maybe a VIP board or something would be good so only members with a wanted of $50+ can chat there.. Would weed out the trolls and chancers and allow people like justgirl to be able to post without fear of being called a taker. Just a thought (also I wanna be seen as VIP
)
I reckon maybe a similar principal for the meetup
I have seen the digs mate at you and this girl and like the true gent you are it was taken with a pinch of salt. ?? ( btw that’s not the jaffa post I’m referring to ha ha)
01Jimmy lol. Not heard that one. Always thought Jimmy was a Jimmy riddle( piddle) a piss. ?
00Don’t do this pub thing it’s too risky. You live there. It’s your local. I don’t trust a very small minority.
I agree with this too and your other post haz.
I made a comment about being careful about the place being rammed with ‘takers’… with this I meant people who were no genuine fans just turning up for the alcohol and not actually being a fan of the bandit or a genuine member of this forum eg the people trying to constantly bash Steve with this affiliation shit or the go fund me phone/bike type…
BUT from making that comment I was then called a Taker, and a Jaffa (whatever that is) because I’ve accepted a couple of very kind offers of help with my little one in the past..
I won’t have anyone ridicule me or come at me for asking advice about my girl and that fact a couple of people have done that to me.. I’m now afraid to write anything on here!
And for the record I’m not just being an emotional women.. I’d ALWAYS stand up for myself and my girl no matter who it was but those comments towards me really upset me.
Hi thisgirl 2019 I’ve just had to go back and read the threads again where the word Jaffa was used and I had commented below it, in my mind the insult from Stevie was not directed towards you but to the poster who commented about you which was under the belt.
A jaffa is an insult towards a males genitalia, like the Jaffa orange Seedless lol
it was common insult used regularly many moons ago, which is why I commented
I hope this clears it up for you and please don’t think my comment was in any way directed towards yourself or your post.
^^This
Sorry for the confusion all.
And there’s me thinking a jaffa was a brilliant ball bowled by the bowler in cricket. Mind you those north of the border wouldn’t know what cricket is. ??
00Hi Bandit,
Just wanted to posit this in response to your planned pub meet up. I have put this on a new thread as I didnt want it to get lost. I had decided to take a break from the forum but though that this needed mentioning.
I would really rethink the idea of having an open invite to a meet up mate. There is a reason why not many other streamers/forums have done much similar as you never know who is going to turn up and what is going to happen. On the other thread there is already someone saying they would be really interested and would like to bring a few mates down. This is from someone who is never active in the forums and is the first post they have ever put on.
I really think you need to look at the following:
1 – How many people you want to turn up. Look at some of the facebook open invites that have got horrendously out of hand. That poor girl in germany who had 21000 people turn up to a birthday party. Not sure if your local pub could hold 21000 people and the queue for the pool table would be horrendous but you know what I mean. There is no way with social media the way it is that you will be able to keep the location quiet so there needs to be a guestlist on the bar. There realistically needs to be security at the pub as well.
2 – The mental instability of some people. How many people have been fucked off from the forum or have tried to get free hand outs of you. When they get pissed off they rejoin the forum under different usernames and try to get money out of you in other ways. Over the years you have been very careful in protecting your identity as in not publishing your home address etc (which is common sense) but have you got something in place for the night to make sure no one tries to follow you home. Not trying to scare you with this mate; my main field of work for the last 14 years has been close protection/operational risk management and there are some fucking horror stories out there
3 – I honestly would not put it past someone to delibertleey cause a kick off just so they can post it on youtube for a “look at what happened at the Bandits piss up” or a “I caused shit in this pub” video
I am not trying to say dont have the meetup but I think you need to be a little bit careful with it. How well do you actually know the members and the potential crowd that is going to turn up. I really do think you need to have some sort of vetting in place for this or at least only select certain people for the first one. Yes you might get a lot of people complaining that they are not invited but you dont want to end up in a shit situation. What your trying to do for the pub is a good thing as they are struggling and it would be good to have a meetup with the forum, but you need to look at the crowd dynamic that might turn up.
Just my thoughts.
I think people know my thoughts but anyway it’s not up to me. I do think it’s an excellent post. It just shows what kind of person you are to express such concerning thoughts. As ever your first thought as always is for the well being of people. Fair play to you mate.
01Need a hug, @Haz40?
Im fine mate that pissed me off. He started one thread to get us all involved then after we all felt sorry for me he started another asking for money what got deleted. His loss of his sibling I could relate to and even after that I still wanted to help. I didn’t want to put that on here as obviously personal but I thought it was worth it to help him.
I read your comment haz last night mate on that thread and to be honest it shows what kind of stuff your made of (salt of the Earth kind of guy)I could not have done that as that thread pissed me off.
And just to clarify us genuine hardcore gamblers don’t give a shite if the bandit makes a few pennies off us for his numerous hours spent creating entertainment, this website is not run single handedly and wages have to be paid, people’s time is not free.
Many thanks
Thanks mate. Even after he asked for money I still tried to help. I can relate to what he’s been through and he didn’t want to know. All he wanted was money right from the off set. These kind of threads must stop.
Hi Haz.. I just read your post, my deepest sympathy brother.
Thanks mate. Even though it was along time ago of course you never forget. I just thought I could help. Obviously I was wrong.
00Tread carefully mate, don’t expect miracles just enjoy the entertainment within your means, then hopefully you won’t need to set up a go fund me page
Good luck may your finger be lucky
The tgc captain has asked me to ask you if you would go over to their forum about the upcoming Cheltenham comp mate. He’s called crunchie and he’s starting a thread tomorrow. That’s if your our captain btw.

00What gets me is the recent go fund me attempts by some damm right lowlife crooks. A phone and a fuckin bike. I reply with the hardest upsetting post I’ve made on this site to be blatantly ignored and have the piss been taken out of us by softening us up earlier in the day. Regulars, decent genuine kind supportive members of this forum will leave. Are leaving infact been pissed off with these types of people. I’ve been dying to say this all day. One more person who comes on this forum asking for a handout for a fuckin phone bike or decent food even though they even had over 500 euros will get some shit off me. That rikki bloke pissed me off. End of.
00Just keep the ones you enjoy the most and if you enjoy the prize draws keep them ones in particular. Your right though 32red is an awful site.
01What’s the plan with the competition is it going ahead and if so what are the details please.
As far as I know it’s going ahead. We’re meant to have about 14 players ( that’s going by how many people said they would play) but tgc will sub us a couple of players to even the players. They have at least 18. We have to pick 3 horses per day. Selections in by midday each day. We can nap one selection but I’m not sure how the scoring system will work. There is no entry fee. Just bragging rights.
00Great work there. They’ll be calling for you to be Sir bandit at this rate.
12Keeping well thanks mate. Would of been happier if we had of won yesterday still a point is not a disaster. Hope you’ve been enjoying your winnings from the fat man couple of weeks ago. Reactoonz if I remember correctly
00Unfortunately what you have said there most of us know to be true. For anyone seeking advice on the forum I have always suggested gamstop. Neither option is perfect and both have flaws which I won’t mention. If an individual wants to stop there are measures and sites which will hel such as gamban and gamstop but if a person still chooses to gamble they will find a way. There has to be some form of will power from the player for these organisations to work.
