This forum needs an FAQ

[Tilt]

I want to start the whoring process, after collecting rakeback for some time this forum has made me think that there might be more money available.

I have lots of questions, however, not all of which are answered by the bonuswhores website and their "whoring 101". I think lots of whoring newbies have these questions, however. Maybe someone could start an FAQ thread? I am surely not the only one with these questions...


1) How much can you make whoring? What does the typical bonus look like, and how long does it take to clear, including all the time you spend opening accounts and other administrative issues?

2) How does whoring compare to rakeback?

3) I already have an account at (insert name here: Party, Poker Stars, Empire). Can I still get bonuses?

4) Once I clear a bonus, can I take the money and run to the next easily?

5) Where is the best place for a newbie to start? What if I play (insert game here)? I play most games, so I wherever the best whoring is what matters to me.

Your help is much appreciated.

sir, sir, he said rakeback sir. he said the bad word sir.

There is no typical bonus. They vary from site to site, month to month, etc. This would be a very tough question to answer with any specifics...

If you are going to be playing the site anyway, there is rarely (if ever) a reason not to claim a bonus.

Depends. Some bonuses are for sign-up only. Others are account-specific and you cannot get them unless you are one of the accounts they invite. Still others are open to anyone.

Define easily. For most sites, you can cashout right after clearing the bonus, but you might not receive the money for a day or two. Then you can deposit elsewhere and repeat.

Some sites do not require a deposit for the monthly bonus. At these sites, I just leave some money there to use each month. Once I hit a specific threshhold, I pull some back to Neteller to either put in my bank account or use for whoring elsewhere.

Wow is that a loaded question!

I would love to see a FAQ for this board as well. But finding someone with the time/energy/desire to take this on (for nothing!) might be tough. And then these things change so often it is almost futile anyway!

If you guys start listing some questions, I'll have a minion write one up.

1) What are the quickest to clear bonii, from easiest to hardest?

2) What's the deal with casino whoring?

I'm sure I can figure more out later.

I think if this is something we want to really do right, we would want to divide the FAQ into 2 sections...the first section for poker bonuses and the second section for casino bonuses.

You might want to check out the "Bonus Grid" at BW.

Maybe this is just ignorance, but isn't essentially the BonusWhores homoepage an FAQ?

One thing that would be helpful to be defined is the "x" factor w/r/t clearing bonuses, e.g. "30% up to $200, cleared at 7x?" What I think it means is the site will give you a bonus of an additional 30% of your original deposit on that site, up to a maximum of $200, once you have played 7 raked hands for each dollar of bonus money. Somebody please correct me if any part of that is wrong.

Gotta go now, I'll add more to this later.
