Default Re: ***PSA, STOP POSTING CHECK AND BANK DETAILS HERE***

This is really pretty simple. There is no upside to giving out details on checks, i.e. I got my X site check today, it was from a company called Z that's located in Y.

There is a potential downside in that those actively trying to ban on line gambling can gain information. I'll admit that this is a low probability, but it is possible.

Why take the risk? I think that is all OP is saying.

The upside, in an age where our greatest risk is that recreational losing players won't jump through the hoops to do their impulse deposits, is that these recreational players will know (through open communication) which companies and which checks are working. They also will observe the plurality of companies that are still on our side and that others are using them. Less fear of the unknown when one knows many others are participating successfully in the unknown.

This upside my friend, is far more +EV than the minimal risk of the downside.

It's also really sad that so many of you would act as such cowards in regard to your own rights. Don't act like criminals! Nothing needs to be hidden!

LOL. Really. LOL.

Did you READ the post you replied too? No, there is NO upside to giving out every last detail of a cheque you receive. Enough encouraging information can be disclosed without giving away everything. Or perhaps everyone should also state the amounts of their cheques so as to encourage those recreational losing players that they can do better. BTW, how many of those recreational losing players do you imagine are on this site? And do you not think that those who are can not find encouragement from the multiple threads here discussing successful cashouts without every last detail being posted?

As far as being cowards, I really don't understand this part. No one is acting like a criminal, and nothing NEEDS to be hidden...but isn't it smarter to leave out information that benefits no one, but could harm many? Cowardly would be to cash out all your money, format your hard drive, and sell you computer for fear the DOJ is going to kick in your door. Pretty much everyone here is playing in SPITE of the hurdles your crappy government is putting the way...OP has just made an intelligent suggestion to ensure this can continue. What better way to fight back against those who want to stop you from playing than by continuing to play while doing everything you can to thwart their efforts?
