i'm curious why you think this is about ego? i assumed that homer was doing this for business just like moondogg, granny, jek, pokeraddict and everyone else. maybe i am missing something?

It's not really a business thing, though I wouldn't mind making a few bucks from it. Basically, I like to do stuff like this to kill time when I'm not sleeping or suffering through the drudgery of work.

Of course the vast majority of posters won't object. But honestly, why are you doing this? Casino bonuses are not like poker bonuses. They can get killed very quickly. The only effect of the website will be the quick demise of whatever bonuses you put on there.

This attitude is all over the BW. It's incredibly annoying.

Sometimes it seems like the whole forum is devoted to bitch-slapping anybody who posts anything that might accidently be useful or helpful to someone.

I don't know Homer's motive (if it were me, I'd be doing it for the money), but he has as much right to post info about bonuses as other people have to keep it to themselves.

Homer I seriously think this will pretty much kill casino whoring. Your post on building a br for poker newbies has been seen by so many people you now have an impressive reputation. If the whole zoo gets as mad about casino bonuses as they are already about party reloads - just think about it. Already BW has had a significant impact. Don't kill it for people by making it too easy to do just because you want the ego-trip of putting up a website with a lot of hits. If people are interested they can find out stuff already without your website Homer. Think about it. If nothing else think about whether you personally still want to make some dough out of casino-whoring.

Just my point of view Homer but you won't find my thanking you for driving hordes of people into a toughening market.

It absolutely drives me nuts how the people at bwhores think they should be the only ones allowed to make money casino whoring. Its like they think they invented it themselves. Seriously, most of them probably found out about it from a forum in the first place. Bloody hypocrites.

I think what you are doing is good and should be shared for all.

All the protectionist whores really shouldnt be pissed off considering theyve done these casinos already. But, they are angry because theyve devised multiple ways to get multiple accounts.

A quote from a bwhores poster mad about this.

I, for one, do these bonuses multiple times. Some of those are extremely profitable. Reef/CON probably won't care about the 2+2 influxion but Captain Cook's will get killed. Just don't put the GP group there.

In reality they should feel how i do. Ive done these casinos so why should it bother me at all. I tell friends to do them, but never do it for them and never offer them a $100 for their identity.

This is the same sort of attitude that was prevalent when FatWallet was spawned as a deal-sharing site. Many people complained when a deal was posted on AnandTech's Hot Deals section as well.

It's not going to end Casino Whoring, though it may make some bonuses more difficult to achieve. I would welcome it, but I'm not a casino whore, so I suppose that makes sense.

What I like about that post is Homer's website is going to kill casino whoring... but creating multiple fake accounts is okay to do.

Uglyowl · #27 02-27-2005, 09:22 PM

I have found out it isn't the easiest thing to whore:

1. You need a rather large bankroll... withdrawals take about a week.

2. It takes awhile to set up... downloads aren't the fastest.

I always wondered if there was a great deal out there (not saying this is, I am new to this) that people would be pissed the knowledge gets out there.

LinusKS · #28 02-27-2005, 09:27 PM

Yeah, lol. They're full of righteous indignation because somebody might make it harder for them to cheat.

It's like if I went around 2+2 saying, "How dare you tell people about semi-bluffing!! Don't you know that makes the game harder for me to beat?"

kurosh · #29 02-27-2005, 09:31 PM

It's not like the information isn't out there. To put it in terms of poker, it's like making a cheat sheet if you could for SSH and handing it out to everyone. If you want to play poker well, you can go read the books. If somehow someone DID make a cheat sheet that would impart the knowledge, I'm sure everyone here would be incredibly pissed off. If you really want to go bonus whore, go research it, find the casinos and learn.

i understand this sentiment. however, if there is a cheat sheet out there, i would use it. so kudos to the businessman who is first to put a good cheat sheet up there because they will get my business.
