Most of these punters are probably cheating on their wives...so reliable. ESA can you please give me a reliable punter and met in person status, I want to boast about it to my wife and friends....pls

Finally.... a post more sarcastic than my usual kuk...

Dude. Assuming I am taking the usual precautions, how would my "wife" connect me to my userID?

When the "reliable" punter badge was created , it was with the idea( at least that's what ESA indicated) that it will guide the rookies about whose posts to follow in getting sound advice for a safe and memorable experience .

But the over enthusiastic folks at ESA are now doling out the reliable status to everyone . Especially to those who contributed little or nothing to the review process , often misled the new ones with regular pimping of the girls (who are not deserving of the praise) so that he can get his privileges from them . Which makes the whole process a redundant one and an exercise in futility . So for me at least the badges are nothing but pretty additions to your profile eating away a minuscule part of your bandwidth .

have done over 1000 posts and still not considered reliable lol

@davistar That's what the joke is . You will be one of the most trusted punters on this forum . When I first came here I always read your posts to avoid the no go areas and you were objective in your reviews . Yet you are one without a reliable status . BTW you have hibernating from this forum for a long time now .

just been taking private messages lol,got a hot chick and have stopped this(shes a keeper),u can always meesage me anyhoo buddy

well done davistar, all the best in your new found love.

Dear Kraatos,

I am a bit confused, As a matter of interest who do you feel doesn't deserve these badges?

We apply this manually into our system. If any punter wants to nominate himself for these he is more than welcome to and we shall then decide from there.

Dear Kraatos,

I received your internal message.

With all due respect if you feel that KICKASS doesn't deserve the reliable punter badge, why don't you put it to him in person?

This is a community driven site, If you have a axe to grind for whatever reason take it up with the person and don't get ESA involved.

Why not be constructive towards KICKASS and qualify to him in person on the forum what your problem is with the way he interacts with the ladies and how he writes reviews.

With regards to your reliable punter status that you would like removed because of this, please do publicly announce this and state your reason so there are no hidden agendas.

Regards
