Hello,
First of all, please excuse for the delay introducing ourselves and the German forum to you. Its an honour doing this. And we will do our best to create a successful forum, for the German readers.
The Forum is powered by
www.pokerolymp.de a self financed online news magazine, without advertisings and affiliates. Which means that the three moderators are guys working for pokerolmyp.de It was the management`s decision picking up those three mods even if they had not some large number of postings at 2+2.
The next days we will proceed in adding moderators from the existing 2+2 users, to complete the structures.
The German market is the largest outside the US. Thats why we have this cooperation. Furthermore we have a cooperation with 2+2 books, being translated into German and distributed by
www.pokerbooks.de You can see that there are a lot of synergies possible. And thats exactly the goal.
We cant compare with the US moderators and their great experience and knowledge, which made 2+2 the number 1 forum in the world. But we are open for advises and suggestions. You dont need to learn German for that; we are talking about methods and structures. Feel free please.
The Moderators:
1. takacare: pokerolymps chief editor. Professional Photographer, journalist, pro player, worked as a casino floorman for years, managed 3 German forums
2. Madd: pokerolymps mathematician. Chess FIDE Master, Professional poker player and editor
3. aakk: pokerolymps consulting manager. Online Pro, former owner of card rooms in Austria, 10 years floorman, instructor for dealers and floor education, editor, managed 2 German poker forums
We love the idea to be part of the team. And we will do our best to adapt. Once again: please feel free to ask whatever questions you have. And feel free to advise, we will be more than happy to listen.
A special point in my thoughts: please leave politics, racism and prejudices outside of our relationship. We are talking about poker and that a global thing. What you can see in the media is what sells: sad and bad things, which are neither daily reality nor have a big number of followers/supporters.
Cheers
ak
