I have used the NDB as a way to check out sites. If I like the site and they have a good first deposit bonus, as well as points that are not impossible to clear, I deposit. Which of course what the NDB is really for. Do you?

I only did deposit at Action Poker where i also had a NDB, had 2 NDB at the Ipoker network but i kinda dont like that network so no money deposit there. Nowadays i dont use the NDB offers anymore only use the forum.
I try to avoid using money out of my own pocket if I can. With as many no deposit bonus' out there, I figure that I can go at least 5yrs before I have to use my own money. By then, I shouldn't need npb anymore.

Well I requested a ND ofefrs at Mansion. I deposited a few days ago but just to make a withdraw.
Right now I'm clearing some bonus at different poker sites (including Mansion) but I'll be opening an account at FullTilt through BankrollMob rakeback program soon.

I usually deposit and move my entire bankroll to a site if i like it and as long as it has good cashout speed without any hinderance. For example, i played on BBP, lost my NDB but i liked it there so i ended up moving my roll from bwin to BBP. Now i just play on BBP ^^

Most agree that they use teh NDB to check out a site and then deposit if teh site is good. That is great news and if we all play like that then BRM will remain strong.

The NDB is NOT for you to deposit, that's why it's called a NO deposit bonus. They might want you to, but you do not have to. I don't know where people get off saying/preaching that. It is 100% up to each individual.
I have deposited on a few of the sites I got a NDB through here, but only because I had a good feeling about the site, not because I felt any need to.
You don't owe anyone anything when you receive a NDB, sure, it's nice, but it's the idea of the site - it's not a charity. They keep the numbers up, and a lot will indeed deposit, it all works out for everyone in the end. Don't ever feel like you're returning any favour by depositing, that is ridic.
