I agree to a certain extent, if you advertise what is essentially free money, you have accept that it will happen.
But, it does piss me off when I see a member who joined over a year ago make their first post complaining about the site, I mean wtf is wrong with people. If you're going to take something, give a little back to, otherwise FO.

imo
aye, that shits me too. People with a post count of about 5 over a year they've been joined, which would be fine, except their 5 only posts are ALL to complain. Why not another 5 for thanks for the ones that worked good ?? BS
And to OP, yeh, but on the plus side, clearing a NDB generally isn't that easy if you're not into poker, so I think people looking for easy free cash that aren't into playing poker are gonna be frustrated (lol and post how it's BS that they'd won an extra $50 on BJ and can't take it out)

You right guys. Too many people looking for easy money and fast cash outs. They do not take the chance to improve their poker skills and make a nice bankroll. Well I guess is one of the risk when you offers ND bonus and that's why the cash out restrictions exists. Honestly I think those kind of post will never end.

I think that's why we see a lot of BAD players out there that make all kinds of stupid moves. They are only interested in the money and since they are bad at poker, they just gamble it... For them it's just free money, for me and everyone else, it's a start of a career in poker...
For the REAL players who are trying to build their bankroll, I only advice patience and wish all good luck. We are the ones that will win in the long run

A real player deposits on its own. Free money is free money, gamble it away the first day or go lucky and win alittle so you are able to complete the bonus.
But free money is free money. Deposit with your OWN money and you will FEEL the difference between no deposit money and real money.
Sure, this site is great, I like it and I'm gonna be more active on the forum and so on. But $50 is not a start on a poker career dear god.

If you use good bankroll management, it's a start, yes. It's difficult for a player who is just starting poker, put his own money at risk. But if he gets a bonus and uses it well while learning the game, I believe that he is on the right path

[/QUOTE] I disagree: it's you to feel the difference, but if you consider money in the same way (free or own) there is no difference. Personally when I saw money on my poker account I consider that amount as my own money and want to make it double and then double again.

I see the money as my own, it didn't matter how it got there. But I don't just go and donk it away like some people do.
Also, I would rather deposit my own money and get a deposit bonus with rakeback then get an NDB. I would only use an NDB at a site that doesn't provide rakeback just to check out the site. I did it once here and am glad I didn't deposit $ to find that info I got for that site (not going to mention it either). If you get a NDB at a site, then end up liking it there and they offer rakeback, boy are you screwed in the long run. So I am glad I didn't go whoring around for NDB's and ruin my rakeback chances with the other sites.
