Default Re: The waco kid

Pocketfives is well known for censoring SOOOOO many posts. This guy isn't related to anyone, they just do everything they can to uphold the image of their ranked players as being heroes, and also they don't like anyone talking bad about online poker or whatever.

Like, if someone asks Sheets how come his Sharkscope stats are awful, the thread is deleted. That kind of thing. My favourite of all was that during the Neteller debacle, there was a short window where US residents couldn't use Neteller, but they could transfer their cash to non-US people still, and on most forums, Canadians posted offers to get money off Neteller for a small %. P5s censored all these posts (cause they were afraid someone would get scammed), so all their users got their money locked up by Neteller, whereas lots of people on other forums used this method to get their money out for those few days.

Also for a while (and possibly still), any thread mentioning WSEX whatsoever was deleted, because the possibility of rake-free poker becoming big was bad for their bottom line (tons of their revenue is from affiliate links).
