Brain storm: How do we bring down Absolute?
 

Absolute needs to be punished for their ineptness in the super user scandal.

What they should have done:

1. realized sooner they've been compromised
2. banned players involved
3. reimbursed some players
4. made a statement that they've rectified the situation and everything is under control
5. realize NOW that they've been compromised

They have done none of the above. Absolute management has proven time and again that they are inept and are willing to try to sweep this under the rug. We can't allow that to happen. From what I can tell, their player base is staying steady or its even increasing. 2+2ers randomly quiting is not enough, it might even help them in the long run (fish become robusto, they become the loosest site on the net).

So, how can we hurt them the most?

Not allowing them to advertise on respectable poker sites is a start. Thats kind of a lose/lose though.

My idea is a boycott lasting a day once a week. The people playing there should spam the chat 6 days a week pointing uninformed players to a website where they'll be asked to boycott absolute every Wednesday. This will hurt Absolute in 2 ways, first losing most of their rake for a day a week will wreak havoc on their operating budgets and second the people that still show up on Wednesday will get aggravated by the lack of traffic. If this continues to be a weekly boycott you will see their numbers dwindle over time.

What do you guys think? Any better ideas out there?

I don't have any ideas now because your post made me retarded.

LOL

I did just get finished playing an eight hour session so that pic is kind of how I feel...

Cliffnotes of the OP: Lets try to organize a boycott of Absolute for one day a week.

Re: Brain storm: How do we bring down Absolute?
 

No, let's boycott them SEVEN days a week. Like I do.

Re: Brain storm: How do we bring down Absolute?
 

Absolute is too profitable for me to boycott.

Re: Brain storm: How do we bring down Absolute?
 

boycotting them 1 day per week seems like it would have zero chance of accomplishing anything imo. I might be wrong though. I already boycot them 7 days a week anyway.

We just sit back. Sounds like they did a good job on their own.

They did a good job of proving they are incompetent fools. The site is still running as strong as it ever has though.
