Are you sure? This certainly isn't true of Party.

Default e-mailed Empire - they said statement is legitimate

I e-mailed support at Empire this morning and posted a link to this thread. I asked them if the statement really was from them, and they said it is. The text of their response is below:

<font color="blue"> Thank you for contacting customer support.

Yes, this is indeed an official statement.

If you have any more concerns or suggestions please feel free to contact us.

This is why I stopped playing at Party and all skin sites. The attitude and greediness of the owners is unreal. Take Party Poker they keep 10% of the bad beat for themselves. Sometimes this is 20-70K the fee.
They don't want you to take the bonuses unless you play there all the time. What a joke. I am very happy NOT to play at Party or Empire.

I totally agree with this. I'm starting to feel the same way about the party network that I do about Microsoft. I seriously might quit playing at there site. There are a lot of juicy games elsewhere. The only thing that is nice about the party network is the HH's being stored on the hard drive.

Default Thank You

Dear Empire,

Thank you for coming to this forum to explain your actions. I'm sure a lot of people here did not want to hear what you had to say. Nevertheless it is a lot easier to deal with the truth instead of an unending stream of rumors and speculation.

I think I speak for a lot of your good customers when I say that the last few days have been very frightening. VIP members should not feel that they need to log in twice a day to see if their account has been locked.

I also wish that you would reconsider your form letters in the future. A bonus hunter may be an unwelcome customer but he is not a cheat or a criminal. He broke no rules. Have the decency to tell him why you are closing his account without making vague accusations of suspicious activity. I'm sure you will be rewarded with both a better reputation and fewer complaints for Customer Service to process.

Certainly I will be happier. Some of the people you accused of wrongdoing are my friends.

You seem to have an account at 2+2 now. I hope that you will use it again when matters of importance or interest come up.

Thanks for your time.

Stop the bitching! It is very reasonable of them to do this. It is a way to still offer attractive bonuses to players, as opposed to not offering attractive bonuses and letting people whore them. BTW, the VIP club is nice- its more than a lot of other places offer, and I'm very happy with Empire in general. In fact, despite a higher rakeback offer at another party skin, I'm still playing at empire because I like the VIP program, tournament masters, and general ease of use. Just my $.02.

Jess
