Meh. I don't think speaking to a rep is so vitally important that you have to go out of your way to do it.

1 - You can send any site any e-mail you like at any time. If they really want input they can just read their e-mails or sites like 2+2.

2 - The WSOP has plenty of site reps who will be happy to listen to you. Not sure if they will have as many this year. But I'm guessing they'll be around.

3 - They're around at other major tourneys too. On the Party-Poker Million cruise some rep came up to our little bar and introduced himself, bought a round of drinks, and started soliciting opinions on Party Poker and internet-poker in general.
He was extremely professional and courteous. It was also an almost entirely worthless conversation. Although this wasn't completely his fault. A couple of the 8 or more people there were more concerned with talking about bots and "how do you even know the other players are real?" and stuff about random-cards, etc.
But before the conversation took a turn for the ridiculous I just felt like he was just spouting the 'party' line (yeah, it's a pun) and wanted to talk about how excited they were to be adding re-buy tourneys in the near future.


I just don't see what is so important with meeting personally with a rep versus just sending an e-mail or communicating through this forum.

i don't think I had heard of EuroLinx before. Not sure. It's a prima-skin. That's great. They have a friendly and personable rep reaching out to the forums here which is great also.
That's really all it takes imo.

She's trying to find out from Americans how they can make their site better which is great also although I wouldn't be sure they'll come up with anything useful. Seems more likely they would come up with about a zillion conflicting ideas.


So for her and their site it's all fine I guess.
For anyone who is interested in helping just to be nice that's fine too.
But to say stuff like "you just can't pass up this once-in-a-lifetime chance to meet an online-poker site industry-rep" is pretty over-the-top imo.

I wish Lydia and their site good luck in improving everything they want to improve. Reaching out to the American market is awesome also.
Also good that they have come to 2+2 to get the word out about their site a little bit more (although that rakeback conversation is a bit confusing).
