Flushy's been calling things as he sees them on here for 5 year.
You want him to stop now because he's bought the place?
fk that
This allegedly giving bigger players better rakeback on the sly issue has got bugger all to do with anything here.
If Flushy has to stop criticising people's actions, from a logical poker player minded perspective, lest they take the hump and spite dig up some random shit to have a pop at blonde, then the forum will be a much poorer place.

It's not that we're all h8ers, it's just that there's a slow bloke that posts on here called EvilPie who'd ridic multai and also a bit special. We like to look out for him, he'd have a bit of everthing otherwise.
If Flushy et al didn't point out which deals were shoite for the backer numbers wise poor Matt would only be multai instead of ridic multai.
Sigh....
the good ol' days.......

Every single IPoker skin paid more than the "permitted network maximum" to some of its players. blonde did so to only a few players, to not have done so would have meant we would have had no sizeable rakers, in what had effectively become an "arms race" amongst competing skins. Furthermore I don't think we ever denied it. People know its a fact of online poker life for skins.
I don't really see how Sandy's analogy here is applicable. The OP made an innocent mistake I think, which is easily done on these types of issues, and posters are quite within their rights to put him right, if done so without being harsh.

I stand corrected then. Even more right for people to make those unsuspecting aware then

Didn't you bring in some big rakers for blonde ? Did they get the same loyalty as the smallballers ?
On the same line as this thread was there better value to be had ?
Were blonde wrong ? Not in my opinion but for you to then criticize a blonde because you think his offerings are bad value is hypocritical.
Sandy
Yes. Some did some didn't, sliding scale.
No.
No.

no need to quote it, I read it first time round. I just don't see the same implication that you do.

When 'helping a fellow out' involves handing over cash, it's a nip.
