I just read a post about some member having a 25% ROI at the 109s. Give me a f... break, do you really think you aren't luckboxing? I truly believe that somepoeple are just luckbox than others. Anybody can have luck for just a 1000s SNGs.

So please don't give me some made up number, that isn't even possible.

I'm fairly sure this thread doesn't even deserve a response, but I think that in itself is the reason why you haven't been improving your post quality. People don't find this sort of unecessary ranting worth their time.

There is absolutely no reason for this thread. It doesn't set grounds for any sort of debate, poker-related discussion, or even a laugh. ROI has been discussed countless times on the forums, and the FAQ clearly states this fact, even giving the reasonable stats achievable at certain levels.

I'm not a veteran even by a mile compared to the elite team of posters we have here on the forums, but even I can probably speak for the whole forum when I say please try to think before you post and reply.

Your nickname has attracted my attention because you seem to be posting in a lot of threads, usually with nothing to add or contribute of substance.

While I'm sure we all welcome the rush of new members we've had in the past ~1 month, with every posted thread like this one, I fear we'll loose the aforementioned elite team of posters who have helped so many people improve their game.

If you truly believe you are a poker player of great caliber, who can decide who can and cannot attain a ROI on a given level, I'm sure you will understand the "long term" implications of your post, and the likes.

Contribute by never posting such utterly useless "shouts", and talking more about actual play, strategy, etc.

Don't be fooled by the recent rise in number of posts about non-poker related things either; Those people contribute 100 times more than they talk about other things.
