Hmmm... I consider this in my first post, but it seems some still don't understand that these daily freerolls make up tourney series, used to participate in monthly Leaderboard. In the end of each month Top30 players win prizes in $$$ and also Top200 players win entry to the bigger monthly freeroll. For example, when I won Leaderboard in March - I received $200 into my FTP account and entry to $1000 freeroll.
Therefore, as for me, it's still worth to play these freerolls (even if $25 or $50 prizepool), because we can win the real money in Leaderboard in the end of month. Hence my idea with some "kind of tickets" as current password protection is totally ineffective from fishing donks and casual players out of BRM community. Thanks for all your votes and opinion!

im not a high roller and i do play freeroles..i play the 1500$ sunday bikeride every sunday and some 250$ 20pointers...ive had a few nice cashes on the bikerides and 250$ ones but also can afford to deposit my own money!.. my point is 25$ freeroles arnt worth the time n wineing these ppl are putting into them! this is the 4th or 5th thread about nothing..id personally just rather ship them all the first place prize n shut em up
i was just half jk but had seen a few of your threads with the $50 buy in to the 50s i was just thinking this guy must be coming close to making my BRM look ok
but yea i know what your saying i would rather just deposit than go through the pain of freerolls unless its a good one you can win something worth it but each to there own i suppose. I do wish BRM would do tickets or something stop all the moaning about it

Oh, I've noticed that you're senior Member... but where did u see such threads before...? Though the FTP Leaderboard with its freerolls is only 3 months old (...since Feb'2011).
Anyway, I'm not going to apologize you that I set up this thread... At the end - my question is only for those Mobsters who are really concerned about this matter...

I agree it definitely could work, but I'm not certain it will be implemented. If the system wasn't entirely automated (which would require a collaborative programming effort on behalf of Bank Roll Mob and Full Tilt). If it isn't fully automated than it's just way to much hassle for BRM to take on.

lmao yea the $30 rebuys are a bit heavy going on the bankroll did one the other day to get into the $10k main event it was $30 rebuy 3x turbo so it was simply put fucking bonkers even with 10k starting stacks i was only going to do a double up and an add on but ended up crushing about $300 anyway no regrets would of been fucking great if i made it but was not to be

take screenshots and send to fulltilt support, maybe they'll do something
Certainly to limit access to free tournaments from outside it is necessary! I consider one of variants sale of tickets by managers of a site at the smallest price, for example 1 point. Then those who isn't registered on a site get on tournament can't!

Yeah, I thought that it could be quite simple, though FTP generates and distributes varied kinds of tournament tickets for its players. So, they could just generate a "BRM tournament ticket" (...instead of password) for Mobsters who have acoount with FTP and would like to play BRM freerolls... and that's all.
But probably it's not gonna happened, as BRM doesn't care of this issue... and indeed, it would be to much hassle for both sides...

i asked myself the same question ... did not know that he has become such a highroller in such a short time , it's good for him that he is doing well but some people do forget easily from where they come and sorry 2 say but he was not so long ago in a situation that he was just able to play the freerolls himself , so never forget from where you come before telling people that you earned more in a month playing poker than a other mobster in a semi lifetime . things can change fast in different directions espacially in poker .

have to admit at one point or another everyone played/plays freerolls and many players have made big money from them but most of them are just not worth playing and if you can deposit small amount it might be the better option long term

I think its a great idea daraspol. I am a new member here, and think this is a pretty good site, allowing members ( supposed to be ) a chance at some free poker. And in my limited time, i agree with what you posted about non-members, having seen it happen already. Also i have seen players at my table, during the start of some tournaments, posting in the chat box ( i dont know what the language is ) the password for the game we are in to someone in the observer chat. THAT, is garbage, and i think your suggestion would move towards insuring that only members are playing. I was pretty pissed off when i saw this. Does this bother other members, ( posting the PW like this ) or am i being a bit over-reactive. And what is / are the penalties if we report someone doing this. Thanks to the site, and to everyone who takes some time to post informative, fun, interesting poker related stuff, helps take your mind away from some of the clowns you always seem to end up with at your table. Cheers, and best of luck to all.

did not even know that you won a hugh amount lately ... congratz for that ... i understand that you don't play the freerolls with a hugh field for a micro amount as i believe that it is not worth the effort but some people do and some do make a bankroll with all kind off freerolls >>> just look at island jack ... he played almost every freeroll , even the small ones and is succesfuill with it . Anyway , take good care of the amount you won .

Hi, @FreewayJam and welcome to the Forum...
Actually, I've noticed the same a few times - when donks (...unfortunatelly, again of russian nation) while playing one game are posting on chat the password for coming tourney as soon as it is only released. And this is next reason I thing this password protecction is completely ineffective. There should be 3-4 freerolls a day (min. $50 prizepool) with tickets for BRM members only.
BTW: I'm afraid the other guys here run off-topic a bit away...
so dropped back to the 1-20$ ones...feel real comfortable with 11$ rebuys but i kinda just take whats available when i login
really dont wanna aruge with u..i appolgize if i came off wrong but theres always been 
..and i have been doin well latly in
