Default tough luck - no complaining

hi all

just to clarify - the tempory bans are somewhat arbitary ... and to be honest I make no apology for that (there may be a couple of errors but the odds of people being two different people are frankly remote)

the tempory bans are not very long - and some are 3 days just to give you notice that we have seen you are a member of this password sharing site

members who have posted other sites passwords have a 7 day ban - be thankful

I wouldnt mind guessing the good members here and at other forums would probably quite happily kick you to a pulp then tar and feather you and then leave you in the dessert for the vultures ;-) so I'm probably being soft on you

there are alot of other members we are aware of being members there also

IMHO this is all quite simple - most of the forums dislike these types of sites and particularly this one as the webmaster is more vocally convinced with what he is doing - personally I'd these sorts of sites and password sharing threads and section in other forums didnt exist - but I'm not going to get into some petty spam war with him like some other sites ... and there are loads more who are just as bad but keep their heads down

for members here the choice is simple

that site's purpose is to give out and post PRIVATE passwords that are for closed games at all the forums - if you cant get into a game because it's not public / general poker site freeroll and you cant get the password offically ... there is a reason for that

Amazingly the message forums and private games are telling you is ... your not welcome if your not a member or qualified to play

personally I think these types of sites are from start to finish wrong -

but equally if not more so ... anyone there who is a member - and posts up any sites passwords IS WRONG

so to anyone caught up with a tempory ban the answer is simple - delete your posts of private password at of these sites & support the forums (whichever ones they are) by respecting their rules and ours ...

PRIVATE PASSWORDS ... ARE PRIVATE

cheers scrawnybob
