the lesson here is: when trying to insult someone for having no common sense at least spell "no" correctly.

If you are going to carry on correcting spelling mistakes then it might be a good idea to begin your sentences with a capital letter imho.

Paulol - before you start having a go at someone about their spelling I suggest you look at your message (which greenviking replied to) to see how well written it is.

so im a thicko just because i'm trying to find out about the none-straight gambling that goes on on here?

why the general unfriendlyness to someone just trying to learn.

do 99.9% of the british public know what fishing is greenviking? NO!! stop being a prick


All the best

undern - why u taking his side? he started dissing me first. i even told him i wasn't here to argue.

none-straight, nothing wrong with that.

unfriendliness is it? who gives a ****? he was dissing me and being a prick. what's it got to do with you undern?

Paulol, you are really coming across as a bit of an @rse.

I've seen your posting in the how much has everyone won thread about how if you knew how to bet you'd win more than others on here.

I still think you should put up the ONE thread - something like 'Paulol Quest for Betting Knowledge' and ask questions there.

I am sure you will get some answers. However like some people have suggested you get a reasonable bank (say £250) and start to try some bets out ...

People are getting 'pissed off' because you keep raising questions and issues - almost like a investigative journalist or someone doing a report - but who has done literally no research of the broader terms used in betting.

You should be going away researching these topics you don't understand (in your own time and resources) rather than simply hound other people for answers.

There some very helpful people on here, The Investor being one of them.

Maybe if you did a bit of homework on an area of interest first & then came back with some questions.

There you go Paulol, myself & undern in agreement on this. Google is your friend, do some research.

I will lose a lot of sleep over this.Top drawer insult Paulol.The funny thing is thats about the best he can do.He even presumed undern was "taking my side".There is no side to take.He comes across as awfully childish-taking sides,repitition of the same questions etc.Now Im going to get back to not sleeping with worry over a spelling mistake.Sheesh[smiley:crazy]

no more aggro mate. let's be mature about this. i'm learning about betfair on youtube..

There never was any aggro.I admit and apologise now cos some of my comments were a bit abusive.I was just tryin to point out the constant hammering of questions at people will get you nowhere.
You will not get any info off anyone here that you can go and use to make money off straight away.If you did people would just be shooting themselves in the foot.The best you can hope for are hints and pointers(although you will get more of those on general betting than anywhere else).Forget about the football forum for advice though it can be hilarious at times.
Spend a few quid tinkering with bets yourself,best way to learn the basics

Personally i don't see the need for people to be rude to someone asking questions, even if the questions seem fairly simple to people who have been full time on here for years .
