Default interesting feedback

hi all

well I guess this thread and issue is getting alot of attention

just to step in as I read and re-read nowayamigo post - and I think it maybe a bit OTT to jump on him specifically

I think what he said was that if passwords at a site are not clearly protected or private then this is different - to a point I see what he is getting at

he also most importantly said -

He joins loads of forums to play their games ... which is fine

he meets the requirements on those sites ... again which is fine

so the issue comes up when the password gets thrown around by members to non members ... which I think he quite clearly implied ... he doesnt do with ours but has used passwords that have leaked

the issue here IMHO is more with the leaker than the people who use the passwords

he acknowledges that alot of people do at most sites and I think his point was the poker rooms are not going to stress about it (for the most part they aren't) and it is just an eternal problem faced at all sites ... which it is

on the pokerfreerollpasswords site side of things - we have reached some sort of agreement which we will see how it works - ie. our passwords cannot be posted their and anyone who does will be dealt with

we can in theory post our games on there with info ... now I am not going to start posting each and every game over there (without password but info on how to join etc) I've put up one thread explaining how we work (10+ decent posts etc) what we regularly run and basically made it clear our games our private members only games

The bottom line is our passwords are not to be shared or posted elsewhere - and those that do will get banned

but lets not single out one members who hasnt actually necessarily given our passwords out - just made a few valid points about the realities of it all

cheers scrawnybob
