I guess you guys lost the REAL thing...
Admin said that the real problem are the multiples accounts. Look, loosing one member becouse he found a better bonus at another site it's not that harmfull, that's even right, that's what fodz is talking about.... BUT if people start to create multiple accounts at many sites, multiple no deposits bonus at the same poker room and stuff... THE POKER ROOMS won't like that and ALL the No Deposit bonus would be terminated....
That's why the no deposit bonus keep things like this, they wanna be protected from these frauds u c....
and becouse of that EVERYBODY pays...
it's simple and in my opnion it's right, after all there isn't otherway and BRM and all other No Deposit Bonus Givers have the right to keep their market alive.

fodz you cant just go around sayin oh this site is s**t and bankroll is better for whatever reason you believe.. becusae not only is that your opinion and other people might think differently about it but it makes you and bankroll look bad..
now this is just an example IN NO WAY DO I MEAN ANY OF IT so no offense..
if i sit here and im like oh fodz your girlfriend is sooo stupid mines way better she does this and offers that and brings this to the table and urs only does this and this haha and etc...
now not only do i look like a loser for saying that but it just doesnt work ya no?

your tryin to say that if you wanted to post other competitor sites in a topic and talk about them is that not correct? i was jus sayin if you wanted to speak negitively about them because surely you dont think you should be able to speak good about a competitor site in this one?

I never said anything about posting sites. One thing is for me to say for example "Camila", another is for me to say Camila Lastname + home address etc..
Posted by xxxitaliaxxx13: because surely you dont think you should be able to speak good about a competitor site in this one?
If a site offers something good or provide a great service, what is the problem in saying it is good?
Edit: basically all I´m trying to say is that regardless of the name of the competition, it is very important to talk about the services and offers provided, that is the only way of keeping it updated and always fresh.
Or do you think BRM never looks at the competition?

oh for sure i would bet that they look at them and see whats going on im sure they do the same... but i uno i jus think talkin about them isnt a good idea for bankrollmob because either way it gives the other site publicity on this site right.. and every one here wants the same thing so odds are they will goto the site to they have nothing to lose and thats what bankroll doesnt want

LOL at this thread, thefodz i sorta understand what it is that your trying to get accross as your point, but it has no merits here in this forum. You should stop and smell the roses buddy, what you are doing is showing a disrespect to BRM. Why the hell would a company want posts or links or even the name of their competitors on their turf ( forum ). This is a business and im sure BRM does not appreciate competitors names being thrown in threads. Although ADMIN says that they will not lock this thread and conversation is acceptable, i ask you why do they delete and block certain information you post?? ie names of competitors.
Im sure that BRM is very much up to date with the competition and what is going on in the poker world, in regards to free roll, deposit bonuses etc, they do not need any body to come and post "hey look at ABCD###.com they have this free bankroll its not as good as ours but they still have it" what this will do is in fact cause a traffic flow to a competitors company and how can you justify this will a smart business move by BRM to allow this?? I think that is why you do not have posters of McDonald's inside KFC or vice versa!!

Ok this post got quite long - sorry about that I'm just saying, we're not just a 3 month year old site, we know how it is and it's unfortunately not as good as we would like it to be
I think i broke my own record today
Or do you think BRM never looks at the competition?
It is a must in a business world.
There are better "offers" on the market with big but(my testing fetish again), we have quicker and better service concerning poker rooms and payment methods than most of those poker forums, sites, etc. whatever they call themselves. We have true freerolls and not some added $10 tourney for $1 buy in, thats probably the best offer there is[sarcasm]. Admin probably saw that one. No so called freerolls that require points to buy in. Another thing is that i have never seen that someone pays money for posting. And havent go that deep into reading posts at other forums but by the posts i read we have community here they have posting site.
Multiple accounts. That one i would really wanna talk about. How come that poker rooms does allow those accont be opened in the first place. It is a damn database filled with names not pictures. My computer would probably search throught that database in reasonable time. (do you smell another conspiracy theory ).
Few days ago, somebody was spamming our forum with poems to get points
Please put them somewhere so we can read them i bet they are good.

I think YOU should show a little more respect towards me, "buddy". I´m not some wonderer who´s been here for a couple of days trying to get a quick buck and change the world. Do some research so you can see who´s side I am on.

wow at this thread btw.
To make it simple and short there is no such thing as free advertising it just doesnt exist, advertising is the big money maker, millions apon millions of pounds/dollars/euro's, whatever currency are spent on advertising ever day so why would BRM give free advertising? thats not business, if the "big" competitors out there offer BRM money for advertising on there site then that would be a completly different story.
At the end of the day to make a sucsesfull buisiness you don't offer free advertisng from other competitors on your site, its just bad practise and you can bet your bottom dollar no other competitor would advertise BRM for free on there site so why should we(BRM Community) be any different?

What the hell is your problem?? Look at what you are saying. YOU WANT TO LET EVERYONE AT THE FORUM KNOW ABOUT BRM COMPETITORS, why would you want to do that considering you are such a "devoted" member to BRM??????????????????? so can you please spell it out for me and let me know who's side you are on as i need some clarification please. Because generally when im on somebodies side i do what i can to support them. And i dont know it might just be my aussie thinking but by supporting i dont let the public know about the competition, just an idea?
But maybe you are right, you MUST be the most devoted person to BRM because you have so many posts in such a LONG time, it shows your devotion!!!

Marco, you are a foolish young boy, who couldn´t recognise a compliment if it hit you in the forehead. I am defending interests such as yours and mine, if you cannot see that, then please do not bother me, do not answer my posts, do not waste your time on something you have too narrow mind to understand. You are plain and simply blind. Grow up and get some years experience on your CV.

Agree with thefodz here (kind of) . Obv you don't want other bonuswhoring sites mentioned here as competition, but I really don't see why you don't allow mention of some other educational sites, which do not offer bonuses or RB etc. The standard of posting and general knowledge of the game is lagging miles behind here in relation to other forums. I would love the standard to improve properly here so good discussioin could be generated, but people need to be educated in the basics first. Some other sites can help so much without providing competition.

I don't recall we have ever removed links or mention of sites that are educating and does not contain bonuses or RB etc.? On the contrary, we would love for our members to become the best (online) poker players in the world!

You edited out ******** before? Please remove this if this is against rules but I really amn't sure with this site. I'll edit it myself if it's against rules, but I really think it woud be so beneficial to a lot of the players here to read some of the stuff here. Just reiterating that I will remove this if against rules, but I'm really not sure in this case.

Tommy, don't worry, I edited it for you Problem with that site is that it's filled with banners/ads for poker bonuses etc - and they even have their own pokerbonus program - direct competition with our site.
We don't mind links to educational sites that does not contain poker/casino ads/bonuses etc.
