Re: NEWS: Cardrunners are money grubbering PUNKS
 

You know what, a few people have had various problems relating to the changes (myself included), but they have been knocking out the problems. I was one of the cases where I couldn't log on (and I've had a full membership for some time). They fixed things up within a few days for my issue, and I'm sure they'll do the same for all the other issues as well.

I understand it's frustrating, but do you seriously think they're intentionally trying to rob you? It's clear there are problems but this is a pretty vast change to the website, there were bound to be some things going wrong.

If you can't ride it out, then cancel/reverse charges, call the BBB, alert the National Guard or whatever. In a couple of weeks things will be fine with CR, if even that long.

Also, I like that there's not as much traffic and that so much is accessible to members only.

Re: NEWS: Cardrunners are money grubbering PUNKS
 

i think it is kind of ridiculous that you have to be a member to view hands in the blogs of people that use the CR hand converter.

what is up with that?

Re: NEWS: Cardrunners are money grubbering PUNKS
 

Actually, for a website that is grossing well over a million a year they shouldnt have had any problems at all.

Not hating, just stating.

CR doesn't have any advertisers like 2+2 or others sites do (at least I don't see any ads). In that case all of the content is supported by the subscriber revenue.

A lot of people feel that way. Things in the IT world don't always go as smooth as you like though, regardless of how much money and planning you throw at them. They're obviously troubleshooting the issues they haven't already taken care of.

Re: NEWS: Cardrunners are money grubbering PUNKS
 

I'm not a member and have no account there, but have no trouble with blogs or HH. Click on "view blog" instead of "username" and you can read the blogs, and when I click on the hands aba posted, I can get them all. Can I have a free membership if I continue to do support?

Re: NEWS: Cardrunners are money grubbering PUNKS
 

Taylor,

can you change the color of the print in the blogs, its hard to see and hard on the eyes. everything looks good though, like the changes. and thanks for responding to my email immediately.lol

Re: NEWS: Cardrunners are money grubbering PUNKS
 

Blogs are free, I think you're a little disoriented, nearly all members who were experiencing login issues are now able to do everything just fine, if your account hasn't been activated or you've been overcharged email us again. If you can't login or download/stream, clear your cookie/cache and delete your DRM directory (instructions are on the FAQ).

Forum/blogs will have major stylistic changes aswell as some other things in the interface we will be changing. Tay is in Aruba, I think his internet is limited.

I might be totally wrong, but I think you can just register for free and view the blogs. I'm fairly sure that there are three membership levels: Free (access blogs, buy videos), Silver (full access to everything except videos, but receive 25% discount on videos), and Gold (full access to everything).

Re: NEWS: Cardrunners are money grubbering PUNKS
 

DMoogle would be 100% right. Don't forget free HH converter.

is that because CR doesn't want anyone advertising? or is it because no one wants to advertise on their site?

i could see reasons for both.

Re: NEWS: Cardrunners are money grubbering PUNKS
 

that's crazy to say no one want's to advertise to a bunch of people with a lot of disposable income and to the most important demographic that advertisers care about (prob 16-30s). I haven't been to the new site but I'm sure they could at least make a bunch of money as an affiliate + other advertising. I'm sure if girls with blogs can make hundreds of thousand just on advertising CR can do the same and if they aren't they must not like money.

"grubbering"?

i think it's fair to cut them some slack -- they are essentially going through the pains of growth from a "cottage industry" into a medium-sized business. But yes, in the future, I think we can expect better.

Re: NEWS: Cardrunners are money grubbering PUNKS
 

Had some major problems signing up and lost some money when the new site went live, but now after contacting CR admin my situation is almost 100% rectified. I think that posts like the OP's just reflect on how he's a complete moron, not that CR is somehow trying to steal from people. All new sites have teething problems, seriously get the [censored] over it.

Yeah, who the hell is that dude on CR? I always see him leaving really mean comments on the blogs ond day, and then really nice comments the next. He must be bi-polar. Also, he posts at least 100 comments a day, wtf???

Taylor has already consolidated his power

Re: NEWS: Cardrunners are money grubbering PUNKS
 

The new site is pretty annoying so far...I used to love going to Cardrunners on my blackberry when I was in a cab or something and checking out the new blogs, it was ridiculously easy to navigate on the old site...now I cant do it. They screwed up I think in this spot, free very easily accessible blogs (signing in no longer makes them "easy" as far as the internet is involved) gave the site a ton of extra traffic
