Appreciate that. Tis my right to point out the error of their ways! Treat all punters equally and I will not need to point it out. When some punters are restricted to pathetically low amounts and the TAB employees are treated with total favouritism and are allowed to wager and win unlimited amounts, it needs to be discussed. Why is it right to be treating punters differently? Spatchcock do you really believe that they are operating ethically, and would other businesses get away with it?

Whinge is an interesting word. Brodie to me has repetitively expressed a consistent opinion,opposite to yours, while giving the solution to that problem. you define that as a whinge,because you get irritated a tad when you read it a lot. So really,its the irritation aspect which makes you define some of his comments as a whinge. so really,your post is a good example that the word whinge is subjective and based on the irritation factor and you've given us an example that it can be used to try and create a negative perception about the person you have used it against.But can't we see through that.. of course you don't say your irritated because you know that would reflect more on you,than brodie,and you want to reflect on brodie in a negative way. thats my thoughts on the word whinge.

Its just personally i have always thought people use the word when they should just say,you irritate me sometimes,and leave it at that. Quote

Is very very common in OZ. especially now at cricket Ashes time. The funny thing is this year for a major change, instead of whinging about the Aussies , weather, and Baggie greens non-stop. They've turned on their 'own' with great volatility 😁 . And a 'Whinging' Non stop about their own Cricket team in the media . ( who are performing poorly so far ) i'm almost hoping they win at Adelaide next week to cheer them up a bit lol. (and keep the series alive for Boxing day) 1 Quote
Brodie Posted 30 minutes ago Posted 30 minutes ago (edited) The sole reason that I continue to go on about restrictions etc. is the total victimisation of some punters and the favouritism towards others! The TAB advertises that punters should bet responsibly! Now do they actually mean this or is it just to try and show that they do care? Has anyone heard of the TAB restricting or stopping losing punters from wagering??? Personally I never have, but what the TAB actually does do is restrict punters that do bet responsibly and are winning punters!! So we can see the Hypocrisy in a big way coming from them! They have been giving the Out The Gate extra bonus cash, bonus bets and increased fixed odds since it started whereas some punters continue to be restricted to buggerall! Winning punters are restricted as soon as they start winning consistently and yet OTG have been winning recently and yet they get rewarded with “Free money”! While the TAB continues to operate morally and ethically wrongly, surely it is anyones right to point this out? The answer is to treat all punters fairly and then there will be no issues. If they havent got the fortitude to take the punters on when they put up fixed odds then say so and put restrictions on every punter in NZ. Why dont they come out and advertise the fact that they only want to take wagering from punters that are going to lose? Brodie just telling it the way most people would think is fair and reasonable.

( who are performing poorly so far ) i'm almost hoping they win at Adelaide next week to cheer them up a bit lol. (and keep the series alive for Boxing day) i haven't heard the whinging pom words for some time over here. i think its petered out due to the changing demographics of who lives in nz these days. these days people migrating to nz from the uk are less than half the likes of china or india. Where i live theres lots of indians in particular. i have seen bits of that news coverage on the english cricket supporters reaction to how their cricket team is going.i agree that from what i saw,they do seem hard to please and unrealistic.But i always treat any news story with a degree of skepticism these days so i'm not sure whether i believe the news stories is a true relection of how the average pom feels about their team.

Brodie Posted 4 minutes ago Posted 4 minutes ago (edited) Personally dont think that whingeing is when someone is prepared to stand up to what they know is morally and ethically wrong! Anyone that has any sense of fairness can see that Brodie is right in his thinking snd if it affected them, then they would hold the same opinion. People need to express their opinions and whether they are right or wrong they need to be heard. The thing is we never hear from the TAB as to why they think they should be allowed to treat punters in NZ differently! What other businesses do we know of that are allowed to treat their customers unfairly and get away with it? Edited 1 minute ago by Brodie Quote
