Well, you would have had to get to abour 5000 posts anyway, based on the extreme lack of quality of your posts.

Not that it matters for you any more, what with you being banned and all, but for anyone else, a PM is a Private Message. Simply click on the "Private Messages" link in the header to access them, or click on a specific person's username and click "Send Private Message." Pretty simple stuff.

kudos to TP for swiftly sifting away all the riff-raff...this is the first board where ive seen the owner/operator ban obvious freeroll pass chasers/post pumpers outright...

most boards, in my experience thus far, just want(ed) to increase the membership head count no matter what...

so then when same abovesaid pass chasers/post pumpers start selling the passes or simply inviting 200-plus of their friends and family into the forum pvt events and ruining it all for everyone in the process....ooops, we got a problem!

bottom line, u wanna nip all the nonsense in the bud. keep up the good work!

p.s.: IMHO u should just PM the freeroll/pvt events pass to the eligible members, and not post it publicly in the forum at all. it is a little more work that way, but it would keep all the BS at bay.

It will not be posted. Not by me anyway. Distributed by PM only. And if I find out that anyone else posts it or gives it out or sells it or whatever - they will be banned, no questions asked.

The "regulars" can get the password as soon as they "qualify." All noobs (< 50 posts) will have to wait until 30 minutes before the tourney starts to PM me...

Password? What passowrd? What are you talking about?

Ohhhhhhhhh..... you must mean for the freeroll. Yeah, it's:
goreadthefirstpostinthisthreadthatexplainseverythi ng


Why do people not just read? Seriously? I've had at least a half dozen people email me, PM me, and now post asking for the password before they even made a single poker related post on this site.

Did I use too many big words in the rules or something?

this guy pm'ed me for the password yesterday.

what a joke. i gave him a fairly nice response telling him to make a contribution to the community, and that he would be rewarded for that.

now i realize that i should have just told him to fuck off.

Unbelieveable.

Seriously - I hope that you guys who have the password already know to not give it to anyone at all under any circumstances. The password handing out is to be done by me and me only at my discretion.

Right now, the 10 people entered all deserve to be there. Let's try to keep it that way, please.

just ignore all the pass chasers. dont waste any energy arguing with them, replying to them on the boards or by PM/email, etc...serves absolutely no good purpose. TP will just ban all the obvious forum trespassers pronto and leave it at that.

if anyone's really interested with honest intentions to play, chat and have fun (as opposed to crash a freeroll, leak/sell the pass, and once in the game go allin every hand), they can join the forum, become a part of the community, and take it from there. the well-intentioned ppl also will need no help to read the (simple and fair) forum rules, much less understand them.
