lol come on
 
i guess my 'I will mentor you for free' thread was removed because either you guys think i'm trying to make money from the idea or because you think i'm removing poker discussion from 2p2. i think both reasons are crazy in this situation.

1. The making money reason: although you guys couldn't be sure of this, this was my little way of giving back to the community of 2p2. The plan was to help out the newer strategy posters the same way that Diablo, matt flynn and limon helped out the bruisers, myself and fsuplayers of 2p2 back in that era. Even saying that, you guys really could be sure i wasn't making money since if my plan was to ask for money from the students i'm sure i wouldn't get very far with that after promising it for free.

I would be less annoyed by the stupidity of this decision if stakements thread which are obvious money making business ideas w/ websites that are linked in the threads weren't allowed to stay!

2. If you thought i was dragging poker discussion away from 2p2 then you are also stupid. It was outlined that i would take a whole 10 students, for a small community of sweat sessions and then reviews most of this would have just been aim and skype, there would have been another forum put up mostly for introductions and goals.

citanul,

which of the two threads would you be more likely to remove for likely being a business idea this thread in which he links to his website, lists his profit and also speaks in EDF about his new business idea or a thread about mentoring players in which clearly selects students who will get the most out of mentoring and states he will not charge them?

sorry to blueman for using his good idea here but it's needed to show the stupidity.

I am curious as to why it was pulled, too. It makes no sense.

wow, this is an absolutely atrocious thread deletion. I can;t really think of a reason why 2p2 might begin to think that it was a good idea. Aren;t you trying to get people to come here to learn?

Re: lol come on
 
The most annoying thing to me as a poster, is when you start a thread like that and whatever mod deletes it or moves it, doesn't even PM you to tell you why they deleted it or moved it. I think it's pretty weaksauce to delete a thread like that and not even have the balls to PM the poster who made it to say it was you who did it, and give the reason why. So your only recourse is to start a thread in ATF, that often times gets no answer, cuz ATF is mostly just a joke forum (or a forum for jokes, you choose)

dkgojackets 11-19-2007 11:12 PM

Re: lol come on
 
Seroiusly, if it is against the rules you think they would at least have to courtesy to tell you why instead of just randomly deleting stuff.

I have waged many a campaign trying to change what annoys you Alobar.

But alas, there appears to be no "uniform code of ethics" in what moderators are required to do.

i like the language of no "authority" figure, as opposed to admin/mod, because Tuq is excluded from the first one, but not the admin/mod criteria.

I said the exact same thing like 2 days ago in this thread but was trolled from the get go so it didnt receive the attention it should have.

Also a mod who will remain nameless (unless u read the thread =] ) acted like it would be an inconvenience to notify ppl of deleted posts/threads

if 2p2 are worried about the traffic loss from these 10 guys i'll take my own mentor forum and do everything there!

Yeti 11-20-2007 09:32 AM

Re: lol come on

Yeti 11-20-2007 09:33 AM

Re: lol come on

Jay.,

I typed up my response to that thread just when it was locked. I PM'ed you instead. Am I automatically disqualified for doing that? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
