I am beginning to suspect the mods are trying to stack the entries. This thread will reappear with only green applicants on a low traffic day.

lol is this really that hard to figure out? Stoxpoker and deucescracked paid 2p2 to have a coaching forum to attract customers. Jay wants to give away coaching for free. SP/2scracked loses money. 2p2 loses money. 2p2 deletes thread. Shocking.

Have to agree letting bluemans stake thread stay while jay's thread was moved is [censored] retarded.

I understand some people have financial motives, but how much does jay have to gain? He's been a high stakes player for a long time, he might make a fraction of a buyin, maybe. And he promised it would be free anyway.

well then all coaching threads should be locked/deleted and soliciting coaching services without buying your own forum should be a bannable offense.

i moved the thread. i told yeti very shortly after the thread was made to tell jay my exact reasons for moving it. i left out one, which i've added to discussion in the mod forum, which any of the mods can feel free to mention here but i don't have time to flesh out now. i'm sorry to jay for the inconvenience, and i'm sorry you think i'm a moron (though to be honest i really don't care). your thread will be moved back relatively soon, and honestly, no harm will be done. i'm sure you also aren't a moron, so you can understand why an action was taken. finally, i don't read the stakaments threads, so i hadn't seen the linking/etc, but i agree that staking threads are soething that should be considered and probably gotten rid of if we're going to be consistent, and definitely the linking has got to go.

btw 2+2 management blows. this community is amazing. they run it like hell.

i dont have time for a full analysis and it should be fully obvious what i mean, but i'll give you four reasons so this isn't called baseless flame


1. whats up with this funky old website? i could go on...

2. any community with this many users worth its salt would add about a million things to this forum and website...one that i can think of right now that should be easy is to add a Ning like social networking component that would allow people to create their own private communities within 2+2, easily and free...they could still serve ads but only people who were invited could view it. pretty sure myspace and facebook also do this. its not hard and if they had a real CEO in place who knew wtf he was doing he'd have this done in about a week.

3. how do they seriously not at least have blogs here for well known community members. not to mention the ability for anybody to create blogs...

4. you ever find a 2+2 thread in a google search with more than 1,000 matches? didn't think so. site is the DEFINITION of bad SEO. seriously. if they are ever looking for a candidate for a business school case study for how to get the least from a hugely popular web property...they'd have to look pretty [censored] hard to find a more compelling example than this website.



this website has so much potential but its like some old crazy man owns it. this crazy dude happens to own prime real estate on the vegas strip cuz he got lucky and won it in a card game with Steve Wynn 20 years ago...but doesn't have the proper combination of time, resources, knowledge and motivation to run it properly. they are not only losing money with this...but they are letting all of us down in some small way too

You can setup an anonymous survey and email every single 2+2 member and ask us what we think of this site. IT SUCKS. REALLY REALLY BAD. maybe in 98 this would pass for acceptable...in 2007 its a joke.

so leave. people who constantly bitch about a free service make me lol.

i don't know if you heard, but several people are putting in huge amounts of effort to upgrade the site's software as we speak.

So basically, you're mad because 2+2 isn't every site that you frequent combined into one? Makes sense, I guess, because the world revolves around you, right?

4. you ever find a 2+2 thread in a google search with more than 1,000 matches?

Have you ever found ANY thread from any forum with that many matches in Google?

If you have: Why did you look through every page of a Google search?

[/ QUOTE ]

This site has 100,000 members, and if you look at the "Who's online" page, you'll see that there are usually at least as many lurkers online as there are regular posters. Currently, there are 400 more lurkers online than there are members.

[/ QUOTE ]

Losing money? O rly? You would think he would have shut this site down long ago if he was losing money. Having 4 sponsored forums and a plethora of ads at the top of the page say no to that statement of yours.

For the record, we happen to agree with much of your assessment and are taking action.

Is there something more we should do?

The suggestions put forth by El Diablo and others have not been ignored. If you don't believe changes are taking place, that's your choice. Changes are coming. And it won't be wood paneling. We have heard the chants of our members. Now I can't promise horse penis. And I can't promise bloody penis. But may something strike me in my penis if i lie: we shall have some penis. Somewhere. We shall have some penis.

Wally,

WTF is your point. Everyone knows 2+2 is monetized like crap and that the people in charge haven't given a damn for over four years. You're beating a dead horse. It doesn't make you look like a genius.

I don't post on 2+2 to feel better about myself. I said earlier in the thread I had to go. I should have said 'i have to go unless Mason and Mat come into this thread and have an open discussion about what i've said. ok, 2+2 temporarily has my undivided attention. i'll offer anything i can to help...if they tell me to stfu, thats what i'll do as well. i haven't heard either of them say that yet.

[/ QUOTE ]

So what your basically saying here is you've cleared your schedule to set the 2p2 world to rights at 3:18 AM EDT and you expect a command performance from the admins to discuss your concerns, (which will be expressed with condescension and name calling of course.)
