Re: New internet bonuses forum: discuss
Are moderators actively moving bonus discussions to the new forum? If not, then I guess I don't see the problem...

I think the new forum sucks [/ QUOTE ] They should have at least named it "Bonuswhores.com bonus discussion" or something a little less misleading. |

Re: New internet bonuses forum: discuss
Why not just give the new forum a chance to get off the ground?
Jek is pretty cool, he's not going to act like a Nazi. The new forum could be a useful place for many. Theres just no reason to try to sabotage it in it's infant stage. Give it a chance. See how it goes. Theres no immediate downside. |

Re: New internet bonuses forum: discuss
Well, I don't intend to 'sabotage' the new forum, I just think it is a little misleading. It is a 3rd party commercial forum disguised as a public 2+2 forum. It also means there is no way 2+2 will get a true internet bonuses forum, so bonus information will be spread between 2 forums, and often buried in one of them.
Imagine if the first STT forum was sponsored by Ultimate Bet and you couldn't talk about STT's from any other site. p.s. I think Jek / bonuswhores.com are great, I just think this new forum falls short of the potential that a true 'internet bonuses' forum could have. |

[/ QUOTE ] So you are saying there is no immediate downside, perhaps just a long term one, so why not nip it now...... And as long as you bring up Nazis..... Id say it would have been much better to kill Hitler as a newborn, than after he killed the first million........JMHO Also, I have no problem with Jek at all, in fact he has helped me out in the past. That being said, this is not an attack on jek, but on the new forum. It wouldnt bother me at all if BW bought every ad on 2+2, but why ruin a perfectly good thing that we have in the zoo?? |

[/ QUOTE ] From the IB forum sticky: "do note that this is a commercial forum". We are not trying to "mislead" or "disguise" anything. Your analogy is also faulty. Due to the vast majority of bonuses, being based on standard poker, casino, and sportsbook offers, we are not materially limiting the bonus information, unlike your UB/sng forum example implies. If UB was the sng sponsor, you'd only be able to talk about 5-10% of sngs. In the IB forum, you're able to talk about 99% of all bonuses. I don't think that having to go somewhere else for that 1% is a high price to pay for getting all your other bonus information in one spot. |

Re: New internet bonuses forum: discuss
When I want to read a BonusWhores forum, I go to the BonusWhores website.
When I want to read a 2+2 forum, I go to the 2+2 website. I second what others have said about keeping bonus info in the zoo and keeping the forum range of topics open to anything rather than BW-only. At a *minimum* there needs to be a clear indication *on the menu* that the bonus forum is not like the other forums - under its own section for "sponsored forums" maybe, rather than in the general gambling section. Frankly, a very tacky move on BW's part, and a disappointing one on 2+2's part. One I will certainly remember when I choose whose link to click on next time I open a new account. |
