Posted by Administrator: Good, serious posts can be as short as "Yes"
Actually, you can't actually make a post under 5 characters; the site doesn't allow it.. Although, you can add two spaces after "yes" and that is okay.

I never read anything here about that minimum, although I always understood there wouldn’t exist paid posts that only contained “nice hand”, “congrats” or “good luck”. So, it must be more about the content than about the size. You have to say something, contributing to the discussion in the forum. You will answer the post creator and give space for others to do the same and also, if they want, to answer your own post. That’s why sometimes you see people quoting other mobsters. I conclusion, you should only write when you have something to say that contributes to what’s being discussed.

Posted by damosk: As for Poker Don, who posted this original thread, I guess he feel pretty vilified about the whole thing and would happily surrender the 10 points he got for his post if only he could take his question back.
On the opposite, and I got many replies, so it proved it is an interesting question too.
You know there are tons of forums out there on the internet and you just cannot possible be involved in all of them. I am a serious poster but if I can spend posting 30 mins a day on BRM and get at least something for it (even though it might take 2 months to reach $50), I prefer to spend my time here, and not on another website where I get nothing for it at all. Let's be real; we are all poker players and we all want to make money so I am sure all of us here appreciate the fact the we get points for posting.
Also I reason why I asked is I just noticed that some of my posts (which were longer than others) did not get any points, and I did not reach the day max.

That's not technically possible. It will take a minimum of 100 days to reach $50 in forum posts alone, and then you will not be allowed to cashout if all your points are 100% from forum.

I said "might". It is not really important. It was just a quick estimation, just to explain it is not something easy to fullfill. But thx for clearing that up anyway.
So you need to have at least 1 signup bonus to be able to cash out then or what?

btw, I tried to find the T&C for this cashout request, but I can't find them. Can you tell me where they are ?

No you don't need a no deposit bonus, it's perfectly okay if you win 5000 MobPoints in the Mob Draw and cashout, or if you win in the Mob Safe to cover maybe 50% of your cashout etc.

Posted by demodawggy: How ironic! Your question about how long posts have to be have resulted in a 'thread' that is much 'longer' than the average... lol...
If you were to get 'Bonus' points for the length of a thread, or how many replies it gets,...you'd have struck gold,....
...maybe not gold,....let's say just 'silver'....
Podium finish anyhow
G'day dawggy
Just what are you trying to say mate? What are you implying dude ? Tell us fast dude because enquireing people want to know. I liked the answer given earlier about the length of a post being dependent on the kind of post. Flag post needed to be longer the tomato plant post.

Posted by IceQueenAce: I actually think it IS worth posting that much. It is effectively $175 a year added to a bankroll and that is a lot of buyins to low buyin games.
That said, I rarely make 50 a day because there are so few good posts worth replying to
When people cashout, we always check where the points come from, if it's 100% forum, then you need a lot of luck to be approved for cashout. If you have made most of your points from the forum and you've been a good contributor to the community, you'll probably be okay.
Im pleased to hear that because I withdraw 50$ long time ago and I believe it was all from forum so I guess that means was concidered to contibute a lot to forums Anyway, I never posted because of points. (well maybe first few posts-and that was just to see how things work) Anyway, I dont see that anyone could be so persistent and have that patience to write s**t 100 days. I mean do anything in your life for 100 days anywhere and you will get more money.

I'm starting to see pochui's handle not so much as a name,....but rather the Lithuanian word for boob or tit...and plural too...
One boob would be a 'pochui',....2 or 3 boob's' would also be pochui... as in the word 'deer'
1 deer is deer
5 deer(s) is also deer....
one pochui 2 pochui, 3 pochui 4
5 pochui 6 pochui 7 pochui...more...
like in the children's rhyme...
