Im going to go out on a limb and say they don't actually report as much as make stories up that sound good to them.

Its a big limb with lots of room. I'm thinking of building a spa out here.

This whole ordeal has taught me alot about people in different ways. Also that humor(no trolling doesnt count eskimo) is always nice even in serious situations.

so ill just chime in like the rest, good work -everyone- and lets hope this [censored] gets sorted out and that people pays for this.

The article brings up an interesting point about the founders and executives of absolute trying to stay anonymous to avoid prosecution in the U.S. (not for the superuser thing, just for the fact that the DOJ is targetting online casino executives that operate in the U.S.).

[censored] hell, Gambling911 are [censored] retarded. Any reason why the article on bots receives more attention than the relevant case at hand? Nice red herring [censored].

edited: I now think what this really means was that someone was paying Scott and company a visit in Panama or vice versa talk about this.

Nat quoted my original thoughts so I wont retype them.

Someone dropped the ball when they put that French wedding album online. Tons of the people pictured fit the description of people that don't want their pictures out there.

Most of Gambling911's site is just spam, sometimes cleverly disguised. They bragged about taking AP off their site but one of their promos is at the top of their poker page.
