I will try. Let's assume you are a supernova;

1) You collect 100,000 FPPs (likely have it already)

2) You go to the VIP store and buy a $1,500 bonus by two clicks in exchange to your 100,000 FPPs (note - no need for affiliates)

3) You continue to play and collect 10,500 VPPs within next 90 days. As you are Supernova it shouldn't take you more than a week or so.

4) You are automatically credited with $1,500. Nothing is deducted - bonuses, freerolls, fees, none. The FPPs you collected to clear $1,500 are still yours and can be used to purchase the next bonus. So it didn't cost you anything beyond the original 100,000 FPPs.

Is that clear?

Now can you explain how is that worse than any other rakeback variant?

[/ QUOTE ]First 115,000 points your basically chasing a 77x bonus with no rakeback(minus the weak sign up bonus which would help that number some,you most likely will see no other bonus).Then after that,lets assume you dont mind the "cash" issue,even if you are making 40% RB you will most ofton not be clearing a bonus which would make the 40% one of the worst deals online.If we are counting everything as RB,what site wouldnt beat that number with actual RB,bonuses,point value?So i play for a few months,im already in the hole vs.playing somewhere else by at least 10Gs in what i wouldve earned at other sites in perks,just to get one of the worst give back deals online.Thats how.

Dude, nobody ever said that Stars had the absolute best deal on the net. Nobody said they had the highest rakeback percentage, or the most bonuses, or the best points. The fact that it is a 77x bonus doesn't matter, because rakeback isn't a bonus. It's rakeback. We weren't talking about bonuses. Obviously places like AP have the most bonuses. Nobody ever argued that.

Your argument had to do with rakeback. Which numerous people attempted to prove to you, as you're the only person who doesn't understand the concept. If you want to participate in this thread, at least figure out what you're trying to say, because right now you're making yourself look a little dumb.
