Obviously we would appreciate it A LOT if you made a deposit, no matter how small it might be. For the following reasons:
1) It's the best way you can say "thank you for giving me free money to start out with, BankrollMob"
2) It will make your country look better in the statistics when the pokersite decides if they want to continue offer no deposit bonuses to your country. If nobody deposits, the no deposit bonus will be gone in no time!
3) In most cases, you will get a deposit bonus. Plus some other benefits, access to certain freerolls etc., sometimes a BankrollMob exclusive freeroll as well.
4) You will help the BankrollMob community by allowing more users to avail the no deposit bonus. Like with #2, if none of our users deposits, the no deposit bonus will soon be gone and none of our other users will be able to use the free no deposit bonus. It's not a one man job to keep the no deposit bonus going of course, but every little helps
As for withdrawal requirements, I believe that differs from site to site. I suggest you contact the site in question first to make sure the withdrawal requirements will suit your needs for making a deposit - also keep in mind that any deposit bonus you might get, could be subject to requirements as well, but no news there.

Oh - and thanks in advance for making a deposit
I can only agree! The no deposit bonuses are meant for helping players getting started and to get to know the poker software. If no one deposits after losing their free bankroll = no deposit bonus will be removed

I took a few no deposit offers and went bust on all. Eventually I took one at PKR (and went bust) but I have since continued to deposit there. And I hope this helps BRM's image.
However, my one big regret with my bonus whoring is thi: I HAVE NO RAKEBACK
Let me say this, if you intend to continue playing online poker for real money, then a free $50 or whatever is absolutely NOTHING compared to what you'd get from a good on-going rakeback deal..
My advice here would be, look into what's a good poker room that you don't already have an account with and then use BRM's links to sign up for a rakeback/1st deposit deal instead - i hope this also helps BRM just as much.
Anyway, that's my advice, if you're gonna deposit, check out your best options, check out some of BRM's awesome deposit bonuses and of course the rakeback deals.. in all cases, these shatter what you can get from a no-dep bonus

jessthehuman is absolutely right. The no deposit bonuses are great for beginners, but if you're serious about playing poker then you should look into a deposit bonus from the beginning - or better yet - a rakeback bonus, you can view all our rakeback offers at http://rakeback.bankrollmob.com
I go for another bankroll. And soon i will be out of no deposit offers. After that i will start learniing how to play poker. For my own money, of course.

If you lost your bankroll because you were very unlucky then u should deposit after making sure there is no points requirement for withdrawal . if req. exists then u should get a deposit bonus on some other site. but if u lost ur bonus because u aren't good enough then take another no deposit bonus.

Thanks for your great advice, i really appreciate.. ,i never think about rackback before because i don't know what rackback is, but now i'm gonna find out what rackback is.. so I'll make the best decision later if i wanna make a new account at poker room.. Thanks to Davoodoo too ,actually i use bankroll management when playing, i never move up to higher stakes before my bankroll exceeds 30 times the buy-in of the higher stakes but still no luck...

That could be costly to you, as you then may not have any other good site to get a rakeback deal. If you turn out to be a good poker player, having no rakeback can be very costly to you.
