New deposit promo for Paradise, what do you think???

[wdbaker]

Just got it this morning and thought I should notify all you bonus whores.
Wanted some input on how long you think it would take to clear this under these conditions.

this looks the same as their current conditions for clearing first deposit bonuses (which have been changed from the original one of 200 raked hands for any amount).

it definitely ranks as one of the harder ones to clear, but at a typical 50 hands/hr. it's still worth $5 per.

wasn't Paradise's single promotional claim to fame an occasional deposit bonus that was so easy to clear that it was far and away the best ever?

When will they have one of those?

Can you ever make a post not entirely consisting of questions?

[Cyndie]

Why? There is always something more I would like to know. I cannot think of a single reason to stop asking quesions(sic)

I'm not saying to completely quit asking questions. But 90% of the questions you ask are semi-rhetorical bullshit that do nothing but clog the forum.

This is part of the reason there are so many posters that dislike you.

ok, now i have to say something..

why would you type the word "quesions" and then put (sic) after it.. were you quoting someone else?

i also noticed you did it in another thread (or maybe this one, i don't know) where you spelled potent as "potant" but i searched the thread and there was no other instance of this spelling.

?

i think your use of "sic" the way you intended it is a little unnecessarily spiteful, mary, in trying to draw our attention to someone's spelling, even though most of us don't care, and assume a typist's, rather than a spelling, error

however, never having been good at Latin, (apart from amo, amas, amat), i looked up the meaning of sic in my pocket dictionary

after seeing it as you wrote it in your post i was a little surprised to read that sic means, "thus: used to indicate that an odd spelling or reading is in fact accurate"

we all live and learn, don't we? [rhetorical quesion (sic)]

This is my post of the year nomination for many reasons. It has a bit of truth, a hint of snippiness, and a dash of irony.
