    The real reason Mo left
    You've heard JJ 's explanation...more money, stole secrets, killed the Bash, etc. The real reason we lost Mo is over a contest dispute with SBR Mgmt. How damn stupid is that? Over half the traffic is lost to EOG because of this nonsense. Sure some of the posters are using both places, but the majority of their posts are at EOG. Even though they choose to do this, calling them traitors is wrong. The fault lies here at SBR.

Then Bill steps on what we've been doing and changes it to DSI and MCs work goes out the door and it could have put a strain on that relationship. Bill changes his mind twice an hour on everything. I liked the guy, i do think he means well and he's nice enough, but he just doesn't know how to run that show as effectively as John did. Him now claiming that he had anything to do with it is laughable. he will make improvements, spend money, and then run the mofome contest on sbr again like he had some idea.

          Mo was a good guy. I think the real reason he left is why most of us change jobs; opportunity. eog is a much smaller operation. Sometimes thats good. One ends up trading the stability of the better company to get a better opportunity with the smaller one. Hopefully they will treat him right.

            Poker: It was Mo's original idea, so he should have been allowed to run it. Like most of Mo's contests, this was hugely successful --64 people competing for the SBR Title. Bottom line is that to lose him and several others to EOG because of EGO is beyond stupid.

                  I think you have it all wrong Hedge, after Mo left he was told he had nothing to do with it anymore since he went to EOG.

                      Really don't care who's right. As Mattn put it..."it could've (should've) been resolved".

                          Mo didn't do any of those things and was great to work with. Those threads by JJ insulting posters should be in the private forum. The contest went great, still is, and will continue to be.

                          His post is in response to recent request not to use SBR ideas or emulate projects created under SBR.

                          We will have the contest next month and it will be even better when the software platform for it is completed. Diogee is doing a great job and hopefully he will contiunue to be a part of it!

                              EOG is a bubble gum shop compared to SBR and MoFo could not handle the pressure here it was just too much. MoFo is a guy you do not want in management because he is too unstable. If I was more stable I probably would be a VP at SBR.

                                    Not as big as they were a few days ago. This is a "biggie". They get Mo and several good posters/'cappers (ie Iwin), and we're left with a Clown and several Ghosts.

                                      Always says the truth as raw as it is.

                                      Presents the raw facts about MoFo and humbly admit his shortcomings.

                                      This is a sign of a true, dedicated poster. Open up your eyes people.

                                            I know. Getting him helped SBR turn the corner. More traffic, more sports' topics in the main forum (what a concept)...and then to lose him over a silly dispute. What a waste!

                                                  You are the one that keeps stirring the pot dude. Bill Dozer didn't reply to me. You keep bringing shit here and pretty soon you will be flushed down the toilet like many others that messed with me.
                                                  You said JJ speaks the truth, yet Billy D admitted everything JJ accused Mo of was untrue. Who should we beleve, Bill or you/Glen?

                                                    Agree and JJ is just flapping his chops as usuual with no facts.Mo enjoys posting and if he got a better paycheck for doing what he likes,more power to him,don't we all wish we had a job we actually liked?This isn't about an owner dispute,it's about a poster trying to better himself,so if you really think Mo's ok,then just be happy for him and move on.

                                                        Or that they like to post pic's and videos with their shirt off to a forum of men

                                                        Claim they are broke yet keep giving their money away in contests.


                                                        Pays off others gambling debts

                                                        Calls people on the internet their family

                                                        Kellen set this guy up an appountment with the Doc.

                                                          Only lowlifes and numbnuts are paid to post. Everyone else has a decent job for a living.

                                                            JJ is paid too. If SBR let's him go, then we're back to even, perhaps ahead. Fact is, no other forum wants JJ...even for free.

                                                              As far as JJ is concerned, I would agree.
