Lets get real. It's a lottery playing in this tournament and well, it would be so bad if it were just BRM player that im up against....but its not.
So I'm sure u see this all the time but there really should be higher security in the freerolls for PokerStars that makes it so that only BRM players are entering here's an idea for free.
Charge 10 BRM points for a "ticket" to the freeroll which then opens a new page with the password -> released in 5-10 before the tournament.
This would prevent users from exposing the password a little more and force players to be part of BRM. If they are not than they will register! this will create more users for BRM.
Let me know what you think about this and sorry if there is already a forum up about this.

What are you saying? Besides the fact that they would still play (non BRM members), i will have to pay 10 points? ahahahahaha They will still be there, coz people who post the password on sites, or FBCK, are BRM members..like those who are against registration with ticket from PS!
Posted by uhhcallmi: just stop playing freerolls ..don't complain....you play to win dollars or dimes???
Not all people are rich, like you... We cannot afford to deposit $$$ and play buy-in. We have to work hard in those FRs to make some cash, then we will play some buy-in, small, till we will build a solid bankroll! But i will happy stop playing FRs, if you wanna send me some $$$$ !!!
Another thing, did you check it leaderb-oard info, to see for what "dimes" we play? That "dimes" can really help you to build a bankroll, and the game would help you to improve your game!

I see that you are fairly new to the bankrollmob forum but be sure that this problems has been already discussed many times.
To be fair i do not think that making people to buy tickets with mob points would be a good idea, n fact it could be the source for other problems. I think the best option would be a ticket registration for brm members instead of pass.

Yea RFIDchips you are just losing your time with this topic, because no one responsibile from BRM give a sh1t about it. Yes it was discussed here many times, but I never saw an admin to discuss it.. Only frustrated members did... Maybe admin answered on it many times before I came here, But I think that "new" members also deserves a answer on this question.. why they dont give a fck about it and let thousands of non users play in their tournaments, which completely destroyed leaderrboard, its unplayable at all...

I agree SOMETHING has to be done.....but paying 10 points for a ticket I don't like the idea of...
PokerStars tells me that it's up to BankrollMob to make the decision to only allow BrM members to play by making it a ticket entry or something that recognizes BrM members ONLY...
As far as blocking the massive infestation of Bingo Queen COCKROACHES with duplicate/multiple accounts who flood in en masse,.... that's a problem for PS to rectify by modifying their software to recognize duplicates, or sign-ins/log-ins from a single computer.......
By allowing BrM members ONLY,....that would reduce the amount of idiots with duplicate accounts who play and ruin games...
You would think that BrM games would be easy to get into the money in,....but they are undoubtedly the HARDEST games to... You are TOTALLY at the mercy of those Fcuking IDIOT Bingo Queens....
They play like idiots,....amass a ton of chips while destroying decent players,....then lose and get ejected by some big stacker...only AFTER leaving chaos and destruction in their wake,....and they get no-where ANYWAY...

Totaly agree with you demodawggy,because of that I don't want to play that freerolls for leaderboard. Problem is they don't want and they don't care about that because it's freeroll,I send few times info about collision amongst players from Romania who talks on their language who have which cards in hands and they send me e-mail with transcript of conversation on table and that players will recive warning but that is freeroll and it's not a big deal. But it is,altrough it's freeroll rewards are real money and they eliminate other players and get real money won by collision. And like I said when i see that mail I stop playing that freerolls because i lose my nervs. That freerolls might be good tourneys for practise and to play for that leaderboard and leaderboard had meaning only if BRM members be awarded with tickets and manny idiots will be removed,but they don't care and that is main problem.

Sure,....if they actually COME to the affiliate site.... But they don't,... The vast majority of them just get the password from some Facebookfreeroll site, come and play their fcuking bingo with their 3 or 5 or 9 duplicate accounts,....and rape the place....
They have no interest in BrM or in any leaderboards,.... they just DON'T have the patience to play,....let alone the patience to wait 3 months for a possible pay-off
They want it all NOW,....and if they have so much as an inkling of a hand it's BAM......all in... and most of the time they don't even need that,....they just shove on ANYTHING....
....and the vast majority of them will NEVER get here to interact with others, or even see any of the advertising for THAT matter....

ok look mate it will NOT work!
There are already tournaments that require passwords from membership site already. BRM is just one of them. you can go online and get the password for EVERY online poker tournament which needs a password. There are even a couple private tournaments which already take security of their passwords even farther then what you are suggesting and I CAN get the passwords if I want them. It doe NOT matter what you do people can bypass any password.
Just get over it. and play the games as they are or just STOP playing them.

And about money,they make more money then you think and like someone says that donks have 5 accounts and all day play strategy is "all in" and when they have luck only cash and never comes here and make post or spend money on poker site,so they are problem for everybody and no one will make money of that kinde of people. That tourneys will be good place for members who are activ here to play and poker among themselfs and interactiv and then that leaderboard have sence, and of course

Hey Ronin my man....
....go to the 'Private' tab in PokerStars and click on a bunch of those tournaments,....usually written in blue letters,.... in about 95% of them when you click on to register,...one of several little boxes pop up that say:
- 'You are NOT permitted to join this tournament' (this is telling me that the software is recognizing that my computer or me is not a member of that site or club, and it automatically rejects me. No password or anything needed...just an outright rejection, and NO way to get around it. MOST of them do that.)
-or, if a box pops up that you CAN click on,...it automatically says: 'You don't have the ticket to join this tournament'...
So it's not a matter of anyone circumventing any password tourneys... The software just KNOWS you cannot enter.......it's as simple as that...
It's like PokerStars told me,....It's up to BrM to institute a method so that ONLY BrM members can enter...
Now COME ON BankrollMob,.....fix this thing.... WHY are you paying idiots who will NEVER join, good money that supposed to go to BrM members...?
Why would you write in the lobby that 'This tourney is for BankrollMob members Only'...???
I know YOU guys wrote that, ...because I administer a HomeGames thingy for my diecast collecting website buddies,....and I get to write in there what I think is appropriate....
Hey dude,....I'm likin' that emoticon.... Obviously you'd rather machine-gun them,....but like I said,....I'd rather draw and quarter them,....and then maybe stick their head on a pike for EVERYONE to see,....and maybe drape their innerds from the buildings...
...if you don't know what D & Qing is,....that's where you tie a rope to each of their 4 limbs,...then to 4 horses,....then whack the horses on the ass, and they run off in 4 different directions,....thereby totally SHREDDING the bastard....

I really don't know why you made a poll vote there. Did you read what i said there, earlier? If i will pay 10 points for password, non BRM members, will not be in the game????? How come?? People who release the password on their sites, or face-book page, will not have the password too and post it, like now?! And non BRM members will still be in the game? Please use your brain..... So besides that, they will still be in the game and i will pay myself another 10 points, right? Are you serious????? I have to make a post for the password, for people who don't give a sh!t about BRM?!?!
This topic has been raised many time, several potential solutions have been proposed and most found to be either unworkable or require admin to be working 24 hours a day to restrict non BRM players effectively.
I know admin is aware of this issue and given an extra month and a similar time commitment from Poker Stars the issue would be solved, or at least made more "secure", unfortunately the extra month will never happen.
With regard to "Restrictions" most other restricted tournaments are restricted by country, sex, area (i.e. CIS, ANZ etc) or status, BRMers can not be pigeon holed into any of those categories.
With regard to the ticket idea, I like it, although it requires a fair bit more administration to set up and beta test etc.
Admin, FYI, I could write a script that delivers a CSV file to Poker Stars to detail the tickets details and expiry dates/times.
The process may work something like this, although it may take a while to write, test, implement and roll-out.
1. BRMers log on to BRM and "opt-in" to this weeks freerolls. 2. A CSV file sent to Poker Stars to detail ticket details etc. 3. BRMers log on to BRM for the password. 4. BRMers log on to Poker Stars, enter password and use ticket. 5. Expired tickets are automatically removed as used or upon expiry.
We could also limit the amount of tickets to 14 or 21, for example, that each BRMer can use per week.
We could also have "open" BRM freerolls to win extra tickets or try to drive non-BRM members to BRM.
Admin, you have my email, if you require anything from me, or wish me to expand on any of the above please feel free to contact me.
3P
good luck all on the felt, see you in the next donkey fest BRM freeroll.

Posted by demodawggy: I just DON'T understand why some IDIOT would post the password on facebook only to create MORE competition for himself....
...they must have absolute S**T for brains...
Some people though,...either want to be the big hero,....or are the kind that just CAN'T Shut UP and keep a secret...
It's not that... Think! They have sites, sites needs members, traffic, ect. From that money comes. So of course they are against registration with ticket!!! Cow will stop to give them milk...
