Re: How Do You Like the Zoo without Affiliate Crap???
[ QUOTE ]
The purpose of these boards is to let those interested in poker interact with each other to improve their game [/ QUOTE ] No its to sell books and make money off of advertising. There is nothing altruistic about these boards. |

I have to agree that the OIC threads are spam but borderline enough that they provide a service.

this is exactly true. while mason may be an altruist to some degree, and all of them may have been altruists when it started, this has become a commercial venture despite the original intentions. nobody, mason included, seems to be wanting to turn the clock back on anything. therefore, the cutomer (advertiser) is always right in raising a stink when it comes to giving away for free, that for which they are charged. |

Re: How Do You Like the Zoo without Affiliate Crap???
as someone who isn't an affiliate, the site shouldn't be cluttered yet too many people think rakeback is illegal or not worth it, etc. and are wasting $. i like the idea of no clutter, except one forum where you can discuss it all you want. then again, the classifieds kind of takes care of this- but no discussion. it doesn't take long browsing 2+2 atleast to figure out that rakerebatereview and moondogg's site are good to check out. still might be nice for people to share which affiliates to trust or not, etc. on aseperate forum

They are still there, but mostly because I haven't gotten around to taking it down yet (affiliates are no longer being charged and no updates are being made, the whole page should be gone within a few days). www.rakerebatereview.com is the place to go for rakeback deals. |
