Default nothing against freerollers BTW

hi all

just to make it clear BTW (as I'm sure our regular & good members have probably picked up on the fact that I'm sething)

I have absolutely nothing against freerollers

It's just the simple fact that whilst the vast majority or members (freerollers & high rollers etc) are very good, follow the rules etc

freerolls unfortunately attract an element that want an expect free free free and a small minority dont care about the forums they join and dont see what is wrong with abusing private passwords ...

this just doesnt happen with buy-ins ... the fact the players have to put something in (even a $1) means these games get more respect and dont attract the interest of all these two bit general forums who also post up passwords etc

as has been commented we are trying to work with (so far with variable success) a certain site which solely focusses on freeroll passwords - so I'm not going to say they are the problem as they are becoming managable - the sites that are not are these rogue sites that pop up all over the place

while I appreciate members sending me info on where they see our passwords (keep them coming BTW and I will keep dealing with them) we are not even with the best will in the world going to stem the flow

so sorry to our good freerollers - but by taking out the freerolls at the biggest two sites this should make things easier (and better) - and we will have replacement freerolls for the US league at sites you might want to try ;-)

cheers scrawnybob
