That's a  tough one Centaur,as the 11% are claiming that he is "trolling"!!Either way he can't  win.

Personally I don't have an issue with him apart from getting a little over excited on some threads,especially defending his point.It would be a bit boring if everyone had the same opinion would it not?

I think this all started over a (my c##ks bigger than yours) my BP is better!!Who cares what system you use as long as you are happy and making something on the side.

Life is short.

Cheers

Food for thought re Chief's moderation policy. This is from USA website Horse Racing Nation. It's not all about Thomass ...it's about being grown-up in the way you communicate your point of view.

Would you like to join the conversation here on Horse Racing Nation? Good! That's what our community is all about. 

 
The Horse Racing Nation community is made up of like-minded, passionate fans of horse racing, just like you. We don't always agree, though. Sometimes these discussions can become a little heated. Which is fine. There is nothing wrong with a little good-natured debate. We only ask that you keep it good-natured.
 
Personal attacks and harassment of other community members will not be tolerated, and will be removed. Offensive language used to insult, antagonize, or inflame will always be removed.
 
Thank you, and we look forward to seeing your comments on Horse Racing Nation!

Yes Weasel some self moderation and restraint would be welcomed.

If you want to see a real edgy forum (uses the same software as BOAY) go to http://forums.sailinganarchy.com/

Check out Americas Cup Anarchy and search on your favourite swear word e.g. four letters starting with f.

It is a very popular site and as I have an interest in sailing I have found it very very informative.

totally agree...makes for good debate,... we don,t all agree on everything...

I agreed with some of Thomas,s picking criteria and suggested a staking plan ,

as well as Portfolios suggestion, during the 101 thread , I was POO HOO,ED by  Mardi and he chose

to suggest I join Thomas in some of his weird idea punting.

HERE YA GO MARDI...I,m prepared to have a crack at making more than you...LOL...(Thomas may want in too) 

(theoretically) on paper...(no balls required) Saturdays only...tell me the bank and bet values.

First you criticise me for saying you should join Thomass' weird punting ideas. Then you say you agree with a number of them. Odd. Seems a valid comment since your ideas are largely of a like mind

As for your suggestion, feel free to select against me when I put up selections pre race. Thomass won't join on that, as he prefers to wait til after the race.

On Thomass' ideas, there is little point discussing them on this thread. There are other threads for that. But suffice to say, it has nothing to do with my opinion that they are wrong. Maths/science is what states they are wrong.

If I said 1+1 doesn't equal 45. You'd claim I was poo hooing?? something. And you blame me.

Whatever Einstein,

Each to their own... I obviously take a more sensible, less scientific approach...

WHEN / WHERE DO YOU PUT UP SELECTIONS PRE RACE ?

I remember questioning VC,s 10k betting logic? in the "value" thread, and the fact, he seemed to be on a downward slide and may be at the front of the next Gamblers Anonymous class," confessing his sins"....(as a joke)

You sprung to his defence ... notice the thread dropped to 3rd page now,  seems defending the 10k pool,

and time involved updating bets probably became unmanageable. 

In another post I mentioned the value of barrier draws at certain tracks over different distances...

Again you suggested i was dreaming and making un - substantiated claims / supporting data...

Next day...inside barrier / front runners dominant

Hope we dont meet in a bar somewhere...wont be much to talk about..MARTIANS MAYBE...LOL

Yep, all this from the guy that doesn't win from punting. Sorry, you could, but you don't have the patience. Have I got that right?

I really enjoyed your barrier draw comments. They are funny. Give Thomass a call.

Have you thought about writing without caps lock. Anyway. This thread is about the Thomass poll. If you want to start a thread on the wonders of punting, you go right ahead. You'll certainly get a few more laughs there as well.

Yeah, i think mardi just has to relax a little, that 101 thread started with good intentions, but really just turned into a pissing match. 

By the way, where has curious gone? 

I'm very relaxed cheers Newmarket. I'm simply responding to those that feel the need to have a go at me. 

Haven't been nasty either.

Look, i know you have some valid points, but sometimes you do come across as arrogant. To be honest, does it matter if people are happy betting the way they do? 

Not just having a go at you, but you have to admit, that 101 thread turned into a disaster.

Mardi, 

I reckon as long as Yourself and Thomas can stop exchanging personal insults , and be civil, there is room for all !

You've got the nail on the head. There has never been a suggestion that people shouldn't bet the way they are happy to.

But the threads have not been about that. They have been in response to one person claiming that punters can actually use his methods and win for a lifetime. That is where the whole discussion stems from. 

If he had shared his views and simply stated, that's what he does. No issue. But to assert that the method had merit for other punters to win from, is very poor form. He can use it, just don't tell all and sundry they could do so also. Especially when 1 + 1 does not equal 6.

It is the same as me saying, back horses starting with the letter F. You will win for a lifetime. And then spending months defending the theory by putting up winners starting with F.

I haven't seen other posts saying do this or do that in respect of picking horses, and you will win. I've never said do what I do and you will win.

The only aspect to punting related to winning I've put up is about value. That's not even rocket science and is certainly the widely accepted belief. And is common sense anyway. I've never told anyone else how they should find value. That's simply an accepted investment strategy.

So that's the history as to all this. One person claiming that the methods will make punters successful. Which I took exception to. Because the claims are false.

Anyway, that's my last post in this thread.

I must say, you probably took the brunt of cyclone T-bone and gave as good as you got.......and to your credit have just carried on  business as usual ...toys still intact in the pram....good onya Mardi.

WOW WEE WOWZER!!!

Moi thinks that's what one calls an unconditional RESOUNDING ROUT!!

Its as routable as an Indian Cricket team doing Keewees...who haven't bet agin themselves 

The 8 wowzers who voted to oust moi obviously went to either the Lutheran Assembly or the Elusive Bretheren...cum Sunday's...

...they're probably virgins who hate piks of Sports Illlustrated hotties

...nothing agin Virgins...but they suk...almost always

It proves Wowzers should never be able to take control of society...and free speech should be able to procreate...as God intended...thanks to the Chiefs of this World

One lesson though vanquished virgins...

Never believe anything you read and only Half of what you see...ok?

But everything moi writes

Sweet?

But again...to the vanquished virgins...get back to the folds please...for I have plenty...cum rest your worried minds onto moi's bosom then..

...and I shall let you suk the life out of moi's inner being...fig speaking of course.....so you can go forth and view the Racing World with a shit load more clarity...

Thank you ball boys thank you ball girls...

...and remember...keep your eye on the balls...

Veni vidi vici bearches

It takes big kahuna's to admit you completely lost your marbles in a moment of madness aqua...

Well done...

We've now found you...after Newmarket posted under his 6 different aliases 

That makes two mad hatters sans marbles....

It takes all sorts though...and you're also welcome to come over for a suk of the sav so you can be turned

best
